Much as I hate Microsoft, I don't think you are correct. I don't think you understand the change. If you read the MS page (not the summary, or the article on betanews), this become clear.
I think that what is changing here is that the OS will attempt to write to USB drives as quickly as possible, instead of caching the data and delaying the write in a manner that would improve performance.
The net result is that, at any given moment, your data is more likely have been written to a USB drive, and hence it is more likely to be safe to remove the drive.
Some years ago, I had some moron disputing the way a fresh installation of mysql started on CentOS/RedHat. The moron accurately described how things work on Debian (and Debian-derived distros), but, even though I pasted the exact commands and responses from a CentOS system that showed my point, the moron kept disputing it.
On most systems, the the worker processes run as "apache" or some other unprivileged user, but there is a parent process which still runs as root (you need root privileges to bind to port 80).
I see to remember reading that they only store your credentials or oath token if you enable Sparks services like smart notifications.
I think you are wrong: "OAuth login or mail server credentials: Spark requires your credentials to log into your mail system in order to receive, search, compose and send email messages and other communication. Without such access, our Product wonâ(TM)t be able to provide you with the necessary communication experience. "
I think it means that the app won't work without your password, which is part of "Information we [Readdle] collect"
If you too sign up for the TSA trusted traveller program, you can go through security without removing bags, you can leave your jacket and watch and belt and shoes on, and go through a metal detector instead of the pervy superman vision booth.
If the TSA Pre line is open, which isn't always true.
1. Those CT scans don't cost as much as you think -- your insurance company gets a massive discount.
2. The cost is inflated by graft. Doctors will contact MRI centers and demand huge payments to send patients to the center. I assume the same holds true for CT scanners.
the metal detector sensitivity was set high enough so belts wouldn't set it off.
In my experience, my belts don't set off the metal detectors in the USA. In the UK, I seem to always set off the metal detector, despite removing every piece of metal, except my wedding ring.
Do you know how much it costs to collocate a 2U system in a datacenter? $400/month buys you a whole cabinet (42U) in a datacenter in California. As for the amount of data: go read the articles about Netflix's system.
What about my point that the ISP is saving a lot of money on peering costs? You can't talk about one cost while ignoring the other.
As for taking a chill pill -- you are the one who desperately needs it.
Site maintenance and power? Trivial amounts of money. It's a 2U appliance. How about the ISP pays Netflix for their reduced cost of peering?
Republicans? I did not mention Republicans or any political parties. Perhaps you should pull your head out of whatever orifice it is in, while searching for a way to deflect criticism of what is obviously your chosen party. Criticism that you are obviously very sensitive about, because I did not write it.
I did not write many of the things you appear to be attempting to refute. Your posting is almost entirely a strawman argument.
If we are going to talk about Netflix, they already offer (or used to offer) your proposed solution. Many ISPs generally refused to accept these boxes because it undercut their arguments about getting Netflix to pay them.
It has a purpose: to relieve consumers of their money.
This is horrendously expensive: $2000 for a phone that won't be supported after 2 years? No thanks.
The Perl programmers are too busy constructing that perfect recursive regex (with look-ahead and look-behind) to be able to take part in a survey.
That was my point.
A limited form of slavery is legal in the USA -- it's false to make the claim that slavery was abolished, because it still exists and is legal.
Use the right word: slavery. Yes, slavery was not abolished by the 13th amendment, merely limited.

I congratulate you on being so humble.
They didn't just advertise it. They put on fraudulent "demonstrations" to potential investors.
This isn't new.

I find it so funny when morons "correct" me.
From a CentOS 7 system: .....: /bin/systemctl start httpd.service /usr/sbin/httpd -DFOREGROUND /usr/sbin/httpd -DFOREGROUND /usr/sbin/httpd -DFOREGROUND /usr/sbin/httpd -DFOREGROUND /usr/sbin/httpd -DFOREGROUND /usr/sbin/httpd -DFOREGROUND

See that first process (PID 21827) : it's running as root.

"Every plane"?
No, nothing like that. It's probably less than 1%.

I think you are confusing peanut butter with a cleaning product.
It's April 1 somewhere.
That's easy. I pronounce it "vim".
How do you pronounce "git"?
English is defined, not by the originators of words, or an Academy, but by usage. English dictionaries do not define words, they document them.
If a hard g is the way it is commonly pronounced, that's the correct way.
Isn't this part of the plot of the "Girl with the dragon tattoo" books? Only it's a man, not a woman with the immunity from pain.
