Not trying to one up you, but when I graduated from high school several millennia ago, I took two weeks off and drove from PA, down Skyline Drive (Virginia), to North Carolina, cut over to the Smoky Mountains, came up through Tennessee and Kentucky, over to West Virginia then back home. All by using nothing but maps. And stayed at KOA campgrounds the whole time to boot. Not hotels.
This was before cell phones so when I called home to let my parents know I was still alive I had to do collect calling.
Of late I've been taking long distance vacations using Google maps to plan my route and make notes, but that's it. I don't have a "smart" phone so I wouldn't be able to consult one any way. 4,300 miles was this last trip.
It's people like this author who make the phrase, "I weep for this generation", so relatable.
of the NPR story where the guy whose car was repossessed goes to a Wells Fargo bank branch with all his documentation, and the staff can't figure out what's going on. Then the staff starts calling the part of Wells Fargo involved in this loan and they keep getting put on hold for over two hours.
If the bank itself puts its own employees on hold when they're trying to get an answer to a simple question, it's quite clear the bank is trying to cover up its criminal actions.
Why people are still customers of this corrupt organization is a mystery.
How is the OP a liar? Their question was how to add a mailbox to Outlook. There was no need to go into why one should use shared mailboxes, or the benefits of a shared mailbox.
Also, one can add a mailbox to Outlook without needing to be an admin. Yes, the admin has to create the mailbox, but one can then add it to Outlook on their own with the proper steps. Which the article does not describe.
Anyone who has followed the con artist knows his modus operandi is to say something outrageous then refuse to provide any evidence to support the lie. We're supposed to accept his word is the truth despite lack of evidence.
That falsehood has now carried over to his disgraceful administration in the form of the FCC lying about being DDoS'd. Anyone with a minimal amount of technical knowledge can see through the lie, that the reason the web site went down was the rush of people trying to post their pro-net neutrality views which will, of course, be promptly ignored in favor of big businesses such as AT&, Comcast, Verizon, et al.
After all, who cares what the people think? It's only what the swamp dwelling lobbyists think. The non-answer of the FCC, that they don't have any records to provide, says it all.
"It's almost impossible to get help," the Republican presidential candidate told CNN last month. "And part of the reason you can't get American people is they want full time jobs."
Oh the horror. Americans wanting full-time jobs. But then, being the con artist, you don't suppose he's lying, do you? The next two paragraphs:
That is news to Tom Veenstra. He is senior director of support services at the Palm Beach County CareerSource office. It's a free service that links qualified job candidates with employers. And during the past two years, the agency has placed more than 50,000 people in jobs in Palm Beach County. Veenstra says he has no doubt he could fill Mar-a-Lago with U.S. workers.
"We have hundreds of qualified candidates for jobs like these," Veenstra told CNN. "That's what we do here. We help place local residents into jobs like those."
Wow, nice spin job. Did you get those words from your handlers in St. Petersburg?
Since Russia's invasion of Ukraine, and supporting terrorists therein, Russia hasn't been able to produce helicopters because the engines came from Ukraine. Even though Russia now claims it can produce the parts, it's only for a limited type of aircraft.
Same for their icebreaker. It was supposed to be launched this year, but because of the sanctions, and the testing for the turbines being in Ukraine, the launch has been put off until 2019. If even then.
Ukraine has been exporting more agricultural products since it got out from under the boot heel of Russia. Hardly a recipe for "inedible". Speaking of which, is Putin still destroying food being imported into Russia while shelves go bare just to make a statement?
At least we know what the Russian talking points on Ukraine are. Anything to distract from Russian regions which are running out of money, not to mention Russia itself. Then again, when Russian workers aren't getting paid for months, that tells you all you need to know.
Considering Ukraine is working with Western companies and actively seeking out advice on how to upgrade its industry and make it more efficient, that speaks volumes about its leadership. Compare that to Russia where Putin steals people's property and gives it to his oligarch buddies, or siphons off millions for his personal use, then whines how it's someone else's fault Russia is in such a sorry state of affairs.
I carry cash when I need to spend it, not simply to have something in my pocket, and not once has anyone, anywhere, ever tried to rob me.
Those whiners who think carrying cash is dangerous are the same ones who will whine about how dangerous flying in planes is when there's a crash. That completely ignores the 10,000 other takeoffs and landings which took place that same day without an issue.
What is dangerous is carrying a cell phone. Between running into objects or distracted driving because you're engrossed with whatever text message you're trying read/send, having a cell phone is orders of magnitude more dangerous than carrying cash. This doesn't even include people robbing you of your cell phone which then gives them access to your accounts because you've conveniently put all that information on your phone.
The question becomes, which is worse: losing the few dollars you had in your pocket, or giving someone access to all your bank accounts?
What are you whining about? It's their job to be sneaky and surreptitiously collect data.
You think they should announce to the world all the vulnerabilities they've found so those means can be closed? If those attack vectors are on the machine of a foreign government they provide invaluable ways of collecting data which don't involve putting someone's life at risk.
What do you think a spy agency does? Tell their target, "Hey, we're going to put this software on your machine so we can listen in and record everything you do. Mkay?"
I swear, people on here seem to think they're smarter than the average bear, but in reality their IQ falls with every breath they take.
The culture of dismissiveness relates to people saying sexual harassment isn't rampant or doesn't happen as much in the tech industry as people say. Despite article after article, complaint after complaint, despite all the documented evidence, people, yourself included, either make excuses for why it happens or dismiss the accounts outright.
If the con artist gets wind there's an attempt to stop using Russian-based software because the company might be susceptible to Russian government influence, he'll order them to use it no matter what.
I can't imagine Congress is going to let this go on forever
You can't? Considering no one in the Republican-controlled Congress has a backbone and as a result, are failing in their Constitutional duties, it is quite easy to seem them cowering like the cowards they are and letting this go on.
The potential damage to the US economy is enormous.
Which is what I'm hoping for. Yes, you read that right. I want damage to the U.S. economy because of the con artist's incompetence. Then we get to hear more of his deflections about it not being another of his failures, how it's not his fault the economy tanked, how it's Obama's fault, how Hillary would have been worse, how everyone else is to blame except him. It will be a classic case of malignant narcissism on full display.
When then president Obama was informed Russia was doing whatever it could to damage or help defeat Hillary Clinton and get Trump elected, he approved covert measures to plant cyber bombs into Russia's infrastructure. They would be used if the U.S. and Russia escalated the attacks on one another.
They were still in the planning stages when Obama left office, but enough was done that the incoming president could follow up and use them, if necessary. Which was never done. After the changing of administrations, the new president promptly shelved these plans. As a goodwill gesture towards Russia, or possibly a way of saying thanks for the help.
fed by an internet-controlled irrigation and nutrition system
Ah yes, the allure of everything internet. As we've seen with the rock-solid security built into IoT, what could possibly go wrong? All that matters is it's on the internet.
I know some of you legitimately can't afford the game
Then lower the price. As many on here will tell you, if you're making more than it costs to produce the game, you're a greedy bastard. Lower the price and more people can afford the game.
Janerka knows that some people simply don't have the means to buy all the games they want to play
Or maybe they should get a job, work two jobs or get a better job. Then they can afford to pay your exorbitant price.
All he's done is enable thieves and legitimized their theft. Oh, you mean he developed the game so he can do what he wants with it? How odd, because when any other game developer or movie company goes after pirates and thieves all we hear on here are people scolding the company for doing what they want with their game or movie.
Now let's hear the excuses for why it's acceptable to steal in one regard but not the other, or how not paying for a product or service isn't actually theft.
Because circuit breakers are the coward's way out. If you believe in free market economics and the markets being the purest form of buying and selling, then you can't have circuit breakers.
Also, you will note these circuit breakers only go in one direction. You'll never see gains capped, only losses.
and they are citing the Federal Communications Commission's net neutrality rules
In other words, they fought tooth and nail to stop or rollback net neutrality rules, but now want to cite those very same rules in an effort to force the federal government to take precedent over states.
And they wonder why they are consistently ranked at the bottom of customer satisfaction surveys.
Because the verified warming trend will suddenly stop because we're slightly ahead of schedule to stop producing as much CO2 and other gases as we thought. It's like watching movies about spacecraft who, when they cut off their engines, magically come to a stop in space.
Yup. Just like Bush had months of daily warnings of an impending attack but chose to do nothing. Which led to the worst terrorist attack in U.S. history. Then Bush lied to the American people about the need to invade and occupy a foreign country which had nothing to do with the attacks, which led to the deaths of thousands of U.S. soldiers, over 250,000 Iraqi civilians and a $3 trillion+ price tag foisted on the American people.

Yeah, you tell 'em brother, because nothing like that would ever happen in the United States. No religion would carve out its own enclave in this country or force women to submit to its "teachings". Nor would they harass girls or demand their religious take precedence.
random people walking around minding their own business.
You mean endangering others around them.

"getting help in Palm Beach during the season is almost impossible."
That's not the whole story. Here are the con artist's own words about using H-2B quotas at Mar-a-Lago:
"It's almost impossible to get help," the Republican presidential candidate told CNN last month. "And part of the reason you can't get American people is they want full time jobs."
Oh the horror. Americans wanting full-time jobs. But then, being the con artist, you don't suppose he's lying, do you? The next two paragraphs:

There are unscalable mountains of pornography on Tumblr.
Not to mention pictures and videos of actual rapes.
If the con artist gets wind there's an attempt to stop using Russian-based software because the company might be susceptible to Russian government influence, he'll order them to use it no matter what.
Remember, this is the same guy who was explicitly warned not to bring Michael Flynn into the fold because Flynn was highly susceptible to Russian blackmail. He went ahead and did it anyway, then tried to blame Obama when everything blew up in his face, ignoring the fact it was Obama who fired Flynn for insubordination.
