the European Commission is exploring the theoretical possibilities of forcing online review platforms into using government IDs as online identities
So, this effort isn't focused on basic internet connectivity. It's still creepy, and I for one won't be (further) compromising my (delusional) anonymity just to make an uncompensated contribution to business. It makes me sad to think of how the integrity of online reviews might be even more degraded as an unintended consequence of this action. Fortunately, TFA makes it sound as if this proposal might not become law.
Nearly every major airport in the US has had incidents of TSA employees abusing their ability to rifle through checked bags in order to steal valuables from the flying public.
Eh? There are some major airports that don't utilize TSA?
Trinity: You always told me to stay off the freeway.
Morpheus: Yes, that's true.
Trinity: You said it was suicide.
Morpheus: Then let us hope that I was wrong.
Send criminals, the way the British used Australia. Either they make it or they don't, but you don't have to worry about packing fuel for the return trip. Ship them supplies and see what happens.
In my experience, the only people showing any negative bias at all toward women programmers were women managers or the male programmers they beat out of a position. My Kung Fu has always been superior, so I've never felt threatened.
This sounds like the makings of a target-rich nailing list for the Feds. Sure, let them build it. We want to see who comes! Now we can concentrate our not inconsiderable assets on cracking this who's who list of the criminal underworld. Why, it's almost as if they had something to hide...
There were no black confederate soldiers, not that saw battle, anyway. So I call bullshit. Go on, share your primary sources on this one. You won't have any, not really.
Why are the popular channels subsidizing poor-performing specialty channels? What's the logic in that? Why is the cable company carrying a channel that's not profitable? Their argument rings so damn hollow it's ridiculous.
This is a concept prevalent in everything from universal healthcare to welfare. You can feel good about yourself because your contributions show you care about worthless television.
What if we want whistleblowers for the things that *are* important?
I was thinking much the same thing. There should be some procedure for reporting in situations like this that doesn't make one a criminal...an oversight board with the ability to receive any information without regard for sensitivity perhaps. Of course, the board should be insulated from any influence by the affected agency, and I'm not so naive as to believe that possible without significant changes.
You know, several of these previous tax credit gimmicks (Cash for Clunkers, etc) have been imputed as income by the IRS. Baahahahahaah. "Savings" FAIL.
Heh, you use a portion of someone else's tax money to pay 10% or whatever your effective tax rate is on community money that disproportionately favors you. I'd call it a tax revenue fail, keep the savings, and (quite incidentally and accidentally) score some green points. EV TCO is already favorable compared to your average compact, and with gas going up and batteries coming down the spread is increasing.

Eh? They should have just mothballed city hall.
Actually, what I'm concealing provides quite a bit more assurance than banalities ever will.
Don't worry Hillary, the NSA has your back (up).

Backdoor? What for? They got you at the front door here.
Nerds should know Ohms law. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ohm's_law [sic] and that there is no difference between voltage and power.
To put it simply, voltage is to power as force is to work. That is to say, there is a difference.

b-but stenography IS child porn!
Give over man. Once way funny. Twice because one was an AC, but three times is just harassment.
Stenography? Poor secretaries! (You probably meant steganography :) )
Heh, yeah. Had my stenographer not been otherwise occupied, she might have spotted that. It's hard to do sinister with typos.
Privacy is evil, crypto is terrorism, stenography is child porn, and you are public enemy number 1.
What they don't do is "rewarding failure". They hand out incentives for trying. Subtle differences between those two....
Cause and Effect, my love.
Am I the only one that desperately wants to see pictures of the Cthulhu antenna?

Can using a charset really be counted as "graphics" ?
