O'Neill didn't make a case for access to foreign workers. He merely whined that workers are more expensive than he'd prefer. So what if a senior dev makes more than a U.S. Senator? That, in fact, is the "free market" at work, but the free market debate has been framed solely in terms of corporate benefit, totally ignoring the fact that labor doesn't have the same options available.
At least Bennett actually interacted with the Slashdot crowd, and posted stuff of personal interest to himself (but often no one else). StartsWithABang does nothing but submit articles and doesn't contribute anything to the site otherwise.
A submitter that has had dozens of articles accepted, but has posted exactly one comment, and that was merely to make a correction to his/her submission. I frankly would not be too upset to see a rule implemented that says if you're not an active participant on the site, you don't get to submit articles. It might help to curb some of the unabashed clickbaiting.
It was such an ugly ball of string and red tape that large bulletin boards were still seen as a serious competitor.
What, you didn't enjoy having to script your SLIP connection and hoping that the terminal server login hadn't changed? For the longest time, the only mail access I had was through my local BBS that supported SMTP, but Fido was still the go-to solution if you wanted to talk to people outside of your area. Of course, back then we dreamed of having our own T1 too. And if you wanted porn, you had to be handy with a newsreader and uudecode.
I'm in a similar boat, although I use my server mostly for handling my own mail and other tasks. I haven't come up with anything that I feel would really appeal to anyone else enough to justify the effort.:-) I do cover all of my own expenses though. It's not that hard.
I'm frankly surprised that Slashdot hasn't done something to prevent all of the free advertising APK gets here. If they want to push their product, they can pay for the privilege to do so like everyone else.
I don't think there's really any single person to blame. Given that the kind of research needed to do achieve kind of substantial manned space flight objectives outside of LEO takes many years, NASA is always going to be hamstrung by the changing winds of political support. As a few have mentioned, the Apollo program owes a lot of its success to the fact that Kennedy died in an extremely public and sympathetic manner, and had already lost most of its political support even before Armstrong set foot on the Moon.
Any space initiative that can't be achieved in four, possibly eight years is going to have a hard road ahead.
You asked for keystrokes/mouse moves only, with no feedback about where they went. I provided a practical example that will work for a lot of machines, that's all.
Really? With just keystrokes and mouse moves? With no feedback about where the keystrokes and clicks end up?
On Windows, sure:
Win-R
"powershell" + Enter
"start-process powershell -verb runas" + Enter
one left-arrow key
Enter
This should work on practically any Windows install that includes PowerShell and is at a live desktop. You're now at an admin shell from which you can download whatever you want and run it. As you mentioned, all of this activity will be visible, but if you're away from the keyboard and it's not locked, then you're hosed.
The only way to overturn a court ruling is through a higher court ruling, and the only way to overturn the highest court (Supreme Court) ruling is through a constitutional amendment which requires a 2/3rd vote in BOTH house and senate to pass. (We have difficulty getting a 51% vote to pass).
Since contributions have already been held to be a form of speech, if you had an amendment restricting contributions, you'd have two amendments that directly conflict with one another. That would make for some interesting court cases.
Unfair to the deliberative process. In general, the more likely you're perceived to just accept the judge's instructions and the legal theater in front of you, and not apply any inductive or deductive thought to the case, the more appealing you are as a juror. Fortunately, the last jury I served on didn't have a single dim bulb in the bunch, much to the prosecutor's dismay at the end.
The last time I had jury duty, I ended up as the jury foreman even after having told them I'm a developer. I'm not sure whether or not to be insulted by that.
While these screens look amazing, they have a very short life.
They look amazing indoors. Outside in bright sunlight, they look like a dark piece of glass. I had a hell of a time taking photos at an air show a couple of years ago because even with the brightness on my S4 cranked up all the way, it still wasn't bright enough to be useful for the most part. Fortunately I haven't had any issues with burn-in like you described, so I got that goin' for me, which is nice.
There's also 32GB of internal storage, now expandable via microSD (up to 200GB), along with 802.11ac MU-MIMI Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.2, and NFC support, fast wireless charging capability, a 3,000 mAh (Galaxy S7) or 3,600 mAh (Galaxy S7 Edge) battery that's not removable, and of course Android 6 Marshmallow. All of this comes wrapped in a water-resistant and dust-resistant design with IP68 certification that will withstand total submersion for 30 minutes.
I can't speak as to Brazil in general, since I've never been there. However I've personally seen hundreds of Brazilian families spend thousands and thousands of dollars at Disney World on quinceañera vacations/parties for their daughters. There many not be many, but at least a few people there have a pretty good chunk of cash.
but rap and electronic (techno, house and all of that crap) I cant consider music because there's nothing musical about it.
As someone that has played and written music for the past 35 years and has actually been paid for both composing and performing, has a solid understanding of theory, and rarely comes across anything I can't sight-read, I suggest you may want to broaden your horizons. I accept and respect that you have your own opinions, but appeal to authority is a logical fallacy.
OK, but given the encryption part of how all this works, I'm not sure how else to protect the video content but though some scheme where you have some kind of physical token that cannot be modified and allows the cable company to manage the content you are allowed to see.
They could always just provide the card as part of the service without an additional rental charge.

You did - look at the submitter.
A submitter that has had dozens of articles accepted, but has posted exactly one comment, and that was merely to make a correction to his/her submission. I frankly would not be too upset to see a rule implemented that says if you're not an active participant on the site, you don't get to submit articles. It might help to curb some of the unabashed clickbaiting.
But you forgot the most important part; authorities should be allowed to do anything if it ultimately protects the children! ;-)
If they *say* it protects the children. Any actual benefit to any actual children is strictly optional.

Not only do wireless keyboards and mice (regardless of technology) chew through batteries but they are also vulnerable to attacks?
I have to replace the batteries in my BT keyboard about every six months. My BT mouse is still on its original set, two years later.
Where "certain cases with a lot of assumptions" equals "a computer running a recent version of Windows"
And where "recent" equals "any version released in the last 10 years".
Congrats! Hope the new toy works out for you.

I wish Dell still made the MNY-RAQ-DEL2. I bought four of them when I found a batch of new old stock on eBay.

the judge briefly engaged me in a philosophical discussion of where my responsibility for the defendant's fate ended.
"With a verdict I believe to be fair, honest, and justified, Your Honor."
"This juror may be dismissed."
