That's not what it's for. It's not for bookmarking things you visit regularly, that's what bookmarks and history are for. It's for saving articles you want to read later. Personally, I find that bookmarks suck for that as it's not their use case.
Then you go on about how most content isn't original and what's the point anyway. What are you even doing reading slashdot then? Seriously, your "I don't understand how this works, and it's probably useless anyway now get off my lawn" head-in-sand ignorance is something you should sort out.
You don't have to use things if you don't find them useful, that's fine. But don't go complaining about the uselessness of things when you don't even understand them.
It's where you put things you want to read later. That's its concept. It's quite useful if you want to read things, but maybe don't have time right now.
It also saves them offline, so you can load it up with stuff to read on that flight or subway trip, or whatever.
To be fair, it's not really the G+ crowd. It's the/. crowd who are on G+ that you're talking about here. Personally I use it because it's a source of interesting commentary from people, is pretty active in the fields I'm interested in, and I don't want to wade through the drama that seems to constantly be on Facebook.
But that doesn't mean I'm calling everyone still on Facebook stupid because they haven't moved, or whatever.
Basically, you're getting the wrong impression because you're looking at a tiny niche of vocal commentators on Slashdot.
Well, I forgot to add that your Mickey Mouse Protection Act doesn't even apply here anyway. Unfortunately determining the details of what is/isn't public domain is still difficult: http://www.digitalnz.org/make-...
Well, in NZ the drivers have to have both a passenger license, and a private hire license, which is more than a taxi driver needs. The main issue is that you can either be paid by the hour, agreed before-hand, or you charge using a licensed meter. Uber does neither.
> Then users will slowly realize that the Google's search results are not trustworthy and they will move away from Google as the search engine. The market will correct itself.
And that's why we need people questioning what they're doing, so that people have more information available to determine whether they should trust Google or not.
They covered all that in the article. Not just how to turn it on, but why it's not on by default/exposed in the UI yet. Seriously, you can't fail to RTFA and then be all "I had to look this up" and "you need to be in a special club to use this" when it explains what's going on right there in front of you.
10.04 is not "old", it is old. It was released over 5 years ago and is now out of support, and you're expecting developers to target things that far back? If you want that, you need to find someone to step up and do that support for you.
The place to fix this is not at the employee level, by taking away their right to negotiate. The place to fix this is at the HR level, by firing them if they discriminate.
But, if one group of people is less willing to negotiate, discrimination from HR doesn't come into it really. You can't force people to negotiate.
I think you're right that it shouldn't have to be fixed at the employee level, I just can't really see another place that'd work (I'm no expert though.)
What you said to do will not work. It's weird to think it even will. It's like you're expecting everyone to become a rational actor with a tiny push, which is not going to happen.

I seem to be having a grumpy morning.

Under Ubuntu+Firefox, I get HTML5 video on youtube, and have a fullscreen button.
You do sound like a crazy person there, btw.
... which makes it a good reason to try this. Along with other things, of course.
In addition, I like to populate my "Watch later" list, or browse through channel subscriptions.
There are many things that require an account that still allow you to ignore comments.
That's quite a good effort, managing to turn something quite unrelated into a rant about systemd.
I think you're 100% wrong, but good effort.
It might be too little too late, but this policy was reverted.

It can be GPLv3 too, so that's OK.
No. A mutually agreed upon price is fine too. It just has to be agreed upon before the trip. Don't be so knee-jerky.
But things can go into the public domain after a time, which is what the post was referring to.

but none of that means that it's a myth.
Project Gutenburg would be a counter-proof.

I've also heard "word processors process words like food processors process food."

I just had a 3.6 here. Should I submit a new story for it?
I think it's more saying "we have a security gizmo so that if you manage to run code here, it can't get out", and using a flaw to get out.
