1. 'Something must be done to protect the people.' 2. The something includes a framework that restricts a right we all have and want, but 'it will only be used for this 1 purpose we promise'. 3. Based on the promises of every administration ever the protection is passed/enabled. 4. 28937438 other uses for the framework are found and since someone else thinks we need more protection our rights are reduced some more. 5. We dont have that right anymore (for our own protection of course).
Yes I appreciate that breakdown is somewhat hyperbolic, but if you apply that view to almost anything done 'for our protection because someone else said we needed it' then I think in general its true.
I support Twitter having the choice to make any rules they want within the law.
And all of its users are free to stop using their service once they have so many rules that it becomes a stifling echo chamber of oppression 'for your own good of course because everyone needs protection'.
And lastly i'm thankful for a free market where all kinds of competing services can take up the slack when Twitter engineers their own failure.
Sure is convenient when you can just imagine someones actions, let alone their motives or intentions without even knowing the truth, then just attack them based on that instead of actually finding our or heck even thinking.
Yep and thats exactly why Trump wont get to do anything especially stupid while in office, all those people in the Congress and Senate wont let him, no matter which 'side' they are on. To suggest that they all lost their minds and will blindly go along with whatever silly idea he gets hour by hour is just ridiculous.
How perfect, you just gave everyone another example of what I was ranting about 'someone said something bad, the world is ending, dog and cats living together, total armageddon is coming'.
The practical realities of being president do not mean you get to do whatever you like, there are checks, balances, repercussions.
For example, ask Obama about closing Guantanamo: He signed an executive order in 2009 to close the place per one of his election promises and its still open. So the President of the country cannot close a government facility let alone unilaterally cause any of the things you claim will happen, he has to work within the system.
Most people (yes even the narcissistic buffoon Trump) want to do the right things for the right reasons (yes people disagree about what is right), however it is usually the unforeseen or unintended consequences that cause biggest problems, not some preplanned diabolical evil plan.
Government has been making some peoples lives worse since day 1, this is nothing new, every so often the establishment needs a kick in the pants to remind them who is really in charge.
*RANT ON* Its getting tiring, this shrill end of the world, he/she said something bad so I have to cry now nonsense. I could say something coherent about words not hurting but i'm ranting so another time.
And then, when I read an article like this all I can think about is 'them'(and if I wasn't ranting I would say all people who dont get their way, not just 1 side or another), saying 'BOO HOO, we didn't get our way so now we are going to kick down the sand castle and take all our toys'.
Sound like a bunch of smug self righteous children, grow up.
200+ years of history and not everyone got their way every time, sometimes you have to play the long game and put in the real work. *RANT OFF*
Its my impression that in some cases exactly the opposite will happen where instead companies will simply put $$$ into carbon offsets and not pay any extra taxes or even less taxes via the cost of a competitive offset market.
So its possible that the richest biggest polluters will not curtail their output but instead pay a potentially voluntary tax possibly even a lesser amount.
But I haven't looked into that too much and I'm prepared to be updated corrected and informed now.
I have not read all the comments or the FA, but my knee jerk thinking is this is another in a long history of 'thin edge' moments.
So many negative and 'unforeseen' consequences would follow something like a law including wording of a 'cyber threat', once the framework is in place allowing things to be classified a such, the whole game changes to what is or isn't a cyber threat, and the root problem(the law) is forgotten. Much like what happened with DMCA, Patriot Act and so much more.
Its been my experience that the 'internet' takes care of itself and when there are attacks we all find ways to fix them and don't need a law to 'help' with doing that.
Boundaries of stupidity. They are using Stackless Python (NO multicore support) on the server. No they dont, They disconnected people left and right, basically kicked them out of that node and made them reconnect. Its been what, 7 years? and they still didnt figure out how to do live migration. He failed to mention your FPS counter also goes to 10%:) It takes HOURS to kill one ship in that SHIT hack of a lag fix mode. Instead of implementing proper multicore support, or even dividing load among many racks they run everything in ONE python thread....
This 100%
Time dilation is a kludge at best, it serves only to make large fights just bearable instead of impossible.
The single threaded nature of EVE is grossly apparent in large fleet fights where all input is processed in order, so if you commanded your ship to go in 10 different directions, your ship goes all those directions in order, even if the last command was an all stop, and during the larger fleet fights this may take minutes to complete so most likely you are way out of position, add to that weapon cycles, reload cycles, warps, jumps and lots more to the queue that are stacked and processed in order with no real time consideration.
IMHO what they really need to do is groom the queue for redundant ship commands, Yes an upgrade to multithreaded for all kinds of good reasons, but grooming the command queue will net them huge improvements in playability when the fights get big.

Saves alot of time, you are so smart.

That felt good, thanks for listening.
Assuming its an old style 44pin micro ide or whatever its called.
There are many IDE to USB doohickeys available that support SATA, 40pin and 44pin.

What do you think?

For cross platform WEP on the MAC you need to use
a $ in front of the WEP key.
Caused me headaches for a few hours one day.
Hope it helps.
Finally! Someone who read the same article I did.
Thanks for speaking up.
I was getting tired of all the head in the sand, nonsense.
