Kids need to learn how to interact with other human beings in real life before they start doing it online. "Kids these days" are completely dysfunctional in person and have no idea how to handle personal social interaction.
What does that accomplish? I'm buying "up to 50mbps" from my provider. That speed is not guaranteed, and especially not on a single link.
Verizon shouldn't be held responsible if I can't get 50mbps from a website that is hosted on a 10mbps colo, or from a media service that doesn't have as much hosting speed as it has subscribers. That's not Verizon's problem.
And of course everything is controlled by computers to reduce the number of people that have to be paid to run it.
Typical political bullshit - favoring re-election over winning wars. Let's make a destroyer with a skeleton crew, where the loss of one person likely means the total loss of a job function. And, let's make it so dependent upon computers that a simple EMP will render this $4.4 billion monstrosity a floating piece of sea junk.
But, look at the bright side! It'll be incredibly expensive, and a huge benefit to my constituents!
I picked up an Asus Kabini SoC motherboard and quad core CPU for about $100. I installed some RAM I had laying around and used similarly "laying around" hardware to finish it up. It's not a bad machine although the built-in graphics are a bit slow on Linux Mint and Ubuntu Desktop.
The most shocking thing to me is that our (the US) security agencies seemed to be completely unaware that anything was being planned. No reports of chatter. No outwardly visible concern. Even the President was briefed that ISIS was "contained" and "under control," and he reported as much on national television days before the attack.
This begs the question of where our intelligence agencies are focusing their efforts. Are they really scouring the world for terrorist activity, or are they too busy spying on their own citizens?
We live in dark and scary times when my government knows everyone I call or email, and when, and records all of that communication, but they can't catch wind of a major terrorist attack in its planning stages.
My favorite SDR platforms. I have a cheap RTL dongle that I use for just about everything outside the ham bands. I use soundmodem along with aprx to run my digipeater/igate. fldigi takes care of PSK and other modes on HF. GNURadio and SDR# for listening to what is going on around town.
It is only illegal to spoof the Caller ID for calls originating in the United States. Most debt collectors use offshore call centers and are therefore not required to transmit Caller ID.
Easy. Don't do anything - and I mean ANYTHING - locally on your laptop. Use it as a glorified VPN and Remote Desktop/VNC Client to a PC safely behind your employer's firewall, or at a hosting provider that is in a country with good privacy protections.
Thank goodness this severance agreement is 100% voluntary and that the affected employees are under neither a requirement, legal nor moral, to sign it, nor to avail themselves to the company for which they are no longer employed.
Just completely ignore the fact that Rand Paul has been opposing CISA since the moment it was disclosed, and is far more of a privacy advocate than Bernie Sanders could ever be. The only reason Bernie is opposed to it is because he's scraping for votes. He's an admitted, unabashed, and unrepentant statist who thinks big government involvement in every detail of your life is the solution to the world's ills.

"greenhouse gas emissions per calorie"
Well duh.
60 calories in a slice of bacon vs. 60 calories per metric fuck-ton of lettuce.
As the denominator (calories) approaches zero, the function tends quickly upward.
You're probably correct about people who experience awkwardness when interacting with said generations.
Note that I never said that I personally experienced any social awkwardness when interacting with said generations.

I use BitTorrent to measure my connection speed, and I have never once gotten less than the advertised speed. In fact, I usually get more.

We want to kill these whales so we can study how many whales we can kill.
If killing 333 whales doesn't cause population problems, we'll kill 366 next year to see what happens.
Or, afidel doesn't understand humor?
All I need to make it happen are redundant paychecks.
Everyone gives away 100% of their possessions "in their lifetime."

Fun stuff.
There is a law enforcement exception written into almost every criminal statute, from running red lights to the DMCA.
Don't pay much attention to the news, do you?

Unless those member states are willing to violate their extradition treaties with the United States, the resolution is more or less meaningless.
That's so untrue, it's a real WOPR.
"Involuntary."
What, exactly, is "involuntary" about this optional, voluntary severance agreement that the employees are under no obligation to agree to or sign?
Thank goodness this severance agreement is 100% voluntary and that the affected employees are under neither a requirement, legal nor moral, to sign it, nor to avail themselves to the company for which they are no longer employed.
Please explain why you think this is anti-competitive?

Not exactly. Police have no legal obligation to protect others. In fact many, many courts have ruled as such.
They do, however, have the same right to defend themselves as the rest of us.
