The interface for Windows 10 is also unbelievably ugly. Its so bad that it honestly seems like they are showing some kind of contempt for users, like we paeans don't deserve anything more than the most bare interface with as few moving parts as possible to minimize any potential headaches to them.
I'm into this. Its to the point where the risk of running an OS off a pirated site is far more preferable than running something from a company like Microsoft.
That is brilliant didn't know about this - have uninstalled all on the list that were installed (a couple were not installed).
Beyond all this, I'm inching much much closer to moving back to Linux permanently or else finding some hacked OS that can run win apps without all the violations.
All of this is reminding me of this guy. I cannot help ROFL when I see these videos. The are so hilarious and I consider them to be among the best works of art of our time.
If I ever happen to see this guy in public filming me I will simply say "I love you! You are awesome! I'm so glad you are filming me!"
With regard to the stores tracking people: I know its a serious issue, but it is also a potentially hilarious one. I can imagine the myriad ways that you could completely fuck with their analytics by engaging in various activities.
Now every action News Corp take against The Intercept only draws more attention to The Intercept's article and makes The Times look worse and worse. All Greenwald has to do is sit back and keep saying "No" and allow it to happen and everyone gets to see a wonderful spectacle.
Its also really sad that major news outlets like BBC ran the story on the Time Article but are not covering The Intercept's response.
My dying in a car accident will not release highly toxic radionucleotides which last tens of thousands of years into the environment.
Also, you are assuming that I am arguing against RTG's. My initial post was to say that I think weighing the safety decisions of engineers against "7 months of data" is BS. Making it seem like its either "7 months of data" vs. what engineers deemed to be safe is a retarded way of thinking.
Also, equating the launching and possible catastrophic release of highly harmful radionucleotides with the risk of death from a motor vehicle is just as retarded.
Copper theft has become a massive problem in the Bay Area so I really wonder if these cuts had anything to do with it. It could be that the people who did it were stupid and had no idea it was fiber cable until they cut it.
I don't see why anyone would *not* remember something as potentially conspicuous as someone or ones with equipment digging into the ground somewhere. I'm guessing that the cables are not just sitting up in the air, but under the ground and probably in some type of conduit which would need to be accessed.
Then again, they dug my street up something like 5 separate times over the past couple years for various water and electric upgrades, so people can become inured to such work going on also.
I know that a company like Lastpass has paid professionals to maintain infrastructure with strict security, vs. whatever I would be able to muster on my own. I could use Keepass and perhaps sync with my Owncloud server, but then is my security going to be better than theirs? Probably not even close.
I like the idea of Keepass and have it installed, but their plugins are not as good as Lastpass and using it is kind of cludgy. I have no special allegiance to Lastpass in particular, although I personally think they are probably the best at what they do and have been around the longest and the annual fee - something I'm more than happy to pay knowing they are professionals - it totally reasonable and worth far more than the amount of resources I would have to expend to produce duplicate functionality on my own.
And by the way, what are you going to do when your smartphone or laptop is stolen, with all those hundreds of passwords you have saved in your web browser, or else what? put them in a text file? or else used the same passwords for multiple sites?... as opposed to if you have Lastpass and all you need to do is change your master password and forget about it!
Everything is a prime target for infiltration. So are my online banks. But we all use online banks because we believe that we can and should be able to. Are we just going to give up doing everything because everything is vulnerable and a target? Or do we just do what we do and do it with the most care and attention to security that we can?
I'm sure that Lastpass security is going to be a lot more intense than an average website. And how else are you going to manage the hundreds of dozen-character long, unique, and complex passwords you want to use with each site?
What Lastpass are doing is simply amazing and is enabling a vast improvement in security (and convenience).
I agree that its nice to see another option becoming available, as it is so alarmingly clear that the existing sources of news are highly controlled, bias, and frequently inaccurate. And especially at the community level we need to enable new processes for news to be gathered and made available because everything begins at the community level.
If anyone out there has the good fortune to have access to one of the newer generation of online, local niche news reporting for their community, and the often active and informational forums that are integrated with them, you will know exactly what I mean by this. These sites and these forums are provided much needed places for community voices to be heard and opinions to be ascertained.
As a true devotee of freedom I would like to see such systems be as open and free as possible, hopefully inspired by and utilizing Open Source ideals to the greatest extent possible.
What a load of shit the premise of the story is. No its NOT worth it to risk a nuclear accident and the release of dangerous nucleotides into the environment, and some people on Earth are capable of making the correct and precautionary decision to be safe. Trying to weight the practice of precaution against "7 months of data" is utter and complete bullshit.
Without making a judgement, because there simply is not enough information to know, but there are several questions to ask:
1. Is it really true that that many documents were taken by Snowden, and that the documents that were taken do contain the sensitive data (which we do not know about) in question?
2. How can it be determined with certainty that the encryption was broken on said documents? For this to be the case, there must have been some kind of observation of activity to indicate this unequivocally. In light of other security breaches, is it certain that such information was obtained through Snowden documents and not via some other means?
We simply do not have any answers to these questions and are asked to rely on unsupported statements.
One other thing America offers the retarded masses: Great aftermarket exhaust systems and boom stereo systems that are sure to vibrate the walls of buildings 1/4 mile away causing severe developmental disabilities thereby ensuring the creation of more masses of retards for the future. And if you can't afforded the aftermarket exhausts there's always the handy drill.
OMG I remember fondly riding my rickety bicycle over the winding cobblestone streets into the Zentrum every week and getting the best pilsner in the world in some place that was like hundreds of years old and buzzing with all kinds of cool people. And riding back home over the cobblestones feeling giddy. Great memory.
As far as education in America - fuck America and its greed and appalling lack of vision. America is now quickly become a place that is only suitable for two types of people - retards and entitleds. It has a lot to offer the lobotomized, retarded masses. Great sports arenas. Tons of entertainment. And it has nice enclaves for the entitleds. But for normal, middle-class people it has become total shit.

LMFAO

Wouldn't WINE be better for that?

does not work
I can't find the original video unfortunately. These later ones are not as good.
Actually that video above is the wrong one. That one is creepy. I was thinking more of videos like this.

KeePass is good but their browser add-ons are not as good as Lastpass unfortunately.
LMAO. Your local password manager on your computer which is ON THE INTERNET!

Fukushima had a perfect safety record. Until 3/11.

Our physical makeup doesn't include an "extension" into the weak or strong nuclear forces...
Yes it very much does.
