Yup. I work for a global organization with over 200k employees scattered in various countries. While each location has it's own company name, company culture and business segment, one thing is universally enforced by our mother company. Fucking McAfee. It's even version 8.8 if you can believe that. Every single morning when I get to work that stupid POS AV scanner insists to make a complete scan of my PC and is set to high priority. So, for 30 minutes each day it is impossible to actually use my computer.
In our company, we have had our network swamped several times with viruses (all while running McAfee). Meanwhile, at home, none of my computers have anti.virus. Just the built-in windows 10 security suite. I download plenty of shady things from shady sources and I have never gotten a virus. Plus.. my pc's are usable.
I guess we all know by now that these power grabs have nothing to do with terrorism and everything to do with consolidating power. I wonder, do these dip-shits every stop to think what would actually happen without encryption? For fucks sake, your average basement dwelling hacker already has a relatively easy time of it, may as well just open everything up. Sure, out credit cards will be stolen every other week, but at least we will can finally end the 10's of thousands of deaths every year in the UK by terrorism....wait....
Seriously, are they literally retarded? The airline industry is run by a complete and total asshats.
Non profit? Sure, the shell corporation ran by the industry it is designed to regulate may well be non profit. Of course, the rules that it makes or chooses to enforce will be designed to ensure maximum profit of those same companies.
I can see it now. Step 1. Double or tipple book landing / take off slots since some times planes just don't show up. Step 2. If somehow, all the planes show up and everyone wants to land, American airlines will shoot down the other/s plane at random. Step 3. Profit?
We are in the early days of VR and MR. Both of these things require heavy graphics cards to keep you from puke all over your shiny new headset. Even Microsoft has clearly seen that VR is here now and working to push productivity apps to VR. It is an exciting time for computing. Unfortunately, Apple has decided that "Sheeple TM" will not be attending this future.
So... for over $3k (27inch) Apple has seen fit to grace this thing with a 580 card? Something in the range of a NVIDIA GTX 1060, which can be had for about 260 bucks? I guess they really have given up on the desktop market.
Seriously, have you ever been to a costco car wash? Have you ever seen how much trouble many of the people have just driving into the track? How the hell are these morons supposed to drive their cars onto some "sled" that will drop down into a tunnel?
Not to mention the fact that it would like 5 fucking minutes for ONE car to get down there and cycle the next sled to be moved up to the deck. It would take hours before it was actually your turn to go down.
So, you know..the company has been having hard times and there could be layoffs coming. I have noticed that Bob's light is always on, so I know he is working hard, all day long, while yours is off pretty often.
Over the last seven years, the electrical power sector has gone from being one of the most carbon-emitting sectors of the American economy per unit of fuel consumed to one of the least carbon-emitting sectors.
Have no fear, the Good'ol US of A is about to change that! Hooraaa!!
Sorry, I can't tell if you are being ironic or not. I think you are, but just in case...
Are you seriously suggesting that China is militarily aggressive relative to the US and Russia? Just look at the countries that you have bombed into freedom. Look at how completely ruined those places are now and how they are now breeding grounds for ISIS.
Have you ever been China? There are certainly things the government censors. That is done normally be deleting it off the net at the ISP level so folks cannot see it. In the US the government does it with discrediting campaigns. All big governments care only for keeping and expanding their power. I would argue that the US government is worse than the Chinese regime. Not sure if you pay attention to Chinese news or not, but there have been hundreds of arrests as part of an aggressive campaign to weed out corruption in the government. Meanwhile, in the US, you have mega corps writing laws that are actively hostile to every American and since they literally own your government, your POS politicians rubber stamp them. Then you beat on your drums about how awesome and superior the US is to everyone else. I don't get it.
In fact, when I was growing up, the US way was something to aspire to. Not anymore. You have lost your way. I hope you find it, before it's too late. Though, since you continue to cut your education system to the bedrock, it will be a long time coming before you can rebuild.
Seriously, anyone who claims that the H1 visa program is not used as cheap labor pool is a damn liar. I have many large customers in the US. I am located in the the EU, so I dont have a vested interested in your visa program. Anyhow, these are huge firms in the automotive industry. Very often things come up during the phase of a project and management first questions is, can we have someone in India do that work for us and if not, can we get some Indian guys over here? Ever been in Michigan? There are so many damn Indians there now, you would think you were living in India. Call me racist if you like, but if you are telling that there are no qualified people in the US to work in those design centers that you need to fill whole the joint with Indians, I say...you are fucking liar. The best thing which could happen to the US would be be to completely scrap the entire H1 VISA program.
Judging from the fact that AC has posted as AC, he knows that he is a piece of shit. People like you really grind my gears. You are so fucking stupid as to think that the poor people are the cause of all your trouble. God for bid that you help anyone who needs help because there is a chance that someone else will take advantage of it. Sure, fuckballs like you are fine on spending trillions killing brown people for no fucking reason at all, but spending a couple billion on the poor...oh the horror!!
Do people that robots are sitting around planing how to take your job? It's a fucking robot, people!
The only "race" going on here is the "race" to transfer the wealth of what's left of the middle class into the hands of the ruling class. Simple as that. Robots are simply a tool to do that. Why employ a lazy meat bag when we can buy a bunch of robots to work 24 hours a day for free!! Everyone thinks that other people will lose their job, but think that they are safe. No one is safe. Business will cut and cut and cut where ever they can to maximize profits. Fuck social responsibility. Who gives a crap that no one is employed anymore and thus cannot afford your robot made products. People sure seem to be stupid sometimes.
IMO, if a very large portion of a population does an action which is technically illegal, but no one considers it wrong, then clearly it should not be illegal. Will allowing piracy mean that music and movies will disappear? No, of course not. It just means that shit, mass produced movies and music, designed purely to make money "may" disappear. There will always be people who do a thing just for the thing. Art for the love of art and not to become rich.
And there are still so many ding dongs that keep naked pics of themselves an other sensitive information in the cloud. Just carry your dick pics in attache case to easily hand out to stranger, like a normal person.Sheesh.
The last few times that I went to the cinema, I was very disappointment with the experience.
The last thing I saw was in 3D, so I had to pay an additional 5 bucks. So, 40 bucks for two people. Then 5 bucks for the "small" 200 ounce soda and another 5 bucks for a "small" dumpster full of popcorn. Then you sit down in the grungy seat and watch the movie. Then notice that the audio is not really calibrated all that well. Then the movie is over and you try to pry your shoes from the soda glue all over the floor. Maybe you even use the bathroom with the pervasive urine smell and racist comments carved into the doors.
Sadly, after Trump's massive cuts to science, miniature was the best they could do. I believe they have the below list of experiments to choose from.. http://www.toysrus.com/product...
But I do not think that's the reason no one really cares. I think most people don't trust wikileaks. Julian is clearly a complete and total fuck head with a political agenda. Personally, I would have a hard time believing anything released by that jack ass has not been carefully cherry picked.
At this stage, everyone knows the US government is spying on the everything they do. Most people just don't care. Everyone also knows that wikileaks guy is a fart muffin. So... they also don't care.

So, apparently Microsoft is the only one who has actually figured out how to disable McAfee. They should patent that.
Sounds like some obscure porn activity.
Does this mean that firefox will finally be able to run flash without coming to a complete standstill?

Great, I'll warm up car. If we leave now, we should be there in about 700k years!
