If he keeps coming up with terms like "chucklefucks" I heartily encourage him to stay under whatever rock he's stuck under. That was worth reading this entire flamewar thread right there.
You do realize that the age of consent is 16, right?
Depends on where you are. In some places it's 14, but "18" is the safe age if you don't know the law. I think most physically adult men are attracted to physically adult women, and for women that happens somewhere between 12 and 14.
Yeah pedophiles and their pictures of half naked 16 year old girls are sick. I reported my brother yesterday for taking pictures of his daughters football game, sick fuck, doesn't he know there are half naked 16 year old girls bouncing around down there?
You can say no and be sent to jail for contempt, indefinitely, while your lawyer attempts to get the courts to see your vision of constitutional rights vindicated.
Anyway, having been established as having child porn, I think the person in question is fucked. It's just a matter of degrees.
The Judge said that Feldman didn't have to decrypt the drives to prove he owns it. Since he doesn't claim, the FBI can more or less do what they want with it, and having done so discovered sufficient evidence on the drive to establish that he does in fact own it. Enough to convince the judge that possession is established and thus he must decrypt the drives.
Apparently self-incrimination was tied to ownership, not cryptography.
Two people who understand the problem, one with five tools in his belt, the other with one. The first guy is going to get the most return on his investment, the second guy will always have work.
Maybe because it isn't so much "wearable computing" as it is "wearable Google-centric media player"???
It isn't so much that it is a "wearable Google-centric media player", it is that it is not a "wearable Apple-centric media player". Apple doesn't like to be one upped. No doubt they have a similar project, and are not releasing it because it has not met their standards of readiness, but it always seems to boil down to "Apple marketing hasn't told us we want it yet".
Sure, people are legitimately worried about privacy, but that ship sailed years ago.
They investigate what they choose to investigate for their own ends. No network has given that up. Fox News just tends to be investigating a lot more now, with a left leaning president, while during W they mostly just pandered. Now MSNBC is in pander mode, having done the "investigating" thing during W.
Pretending anything else is just exposing your personal bias. The crime here is our news outlets have such blatant bias, and very little dedication to journalism and conveying the facts to the masses. Worst, people actually think that what these organizations are doing is truth.
Yes, I'm waiving my hands on a few subjects. I have to, I could write several parallel sci-fi series going through scenarios of human woe on the road from here to magic robot land. I absolutely agree, the wealthy people of today aren't going to just settle for a little corner of earth to call their own. I'm not sure who lives and dies between now and then, and I doubt TFA is correct about the timeline, which itself shapes that path.
"Upheaval" is a rather mild word but if you accept that human labor is worthless, but what else? You cannot have second class citizens in this scenario, even slaves would have no value, only liability. Yes, there will no doubt be a period in which certain less privileged individuals work in some of the above mentioned roles in exchange for resources they don't have, but eventually they too will achieve equality. So you have a world where everyone has all they need, except insofar as their interpersonal issues are concerned.
Ultimately, yes, if resources are harvested and refined at the maximum sustainable rate, then there is no need for ownership or possession of anything. Issues will constantly arise about population vs. resource production affecting overall quality of life. But what's the point in owning anything if you can have anything you need? Nobody need starve or suffer, resources will be distributed fairly. Eventually. It will be a long, bloody road to get there.
There will be trouble, a lot of trouble, not the least of which is mutual resentment. Today if I fantasize about being the only living person on Earth, I think about all the things I'd need to do to survive. It's a lot of work and not a very enjoyable life. People around me serve a useful function and make my life better and we cooperate providing each other with goods and services, using money as the medium to ensure fairness. In robot future, I truly would not need them. How would I treat my fellow man then?
I suspect jobs instead will revolve around maintaining social order and stability (government, law enforcement, population control, education) will be around giving some people a more fair share of resources than others. The currency will be based more on social structure than resources and housing, as it presently is and certainly the majority will not need, nor want, a job. At least that's the optimistic future. The more pessimistic ones call for a radical population reduction through the most convenient means. That may mean terminator robots. Either way, jobs will be the least of our concern.
If the current tools you have are getting the job done, I don't see a need to change.
This, and I might add there are plenty of lines of work that are still growing and in need of people, where you can work and never have to change. Most forms of hardware design (except, unfortunately, PCB), systems and device level software...
Smartphones really are a boon to the world and add value in spite of their oversold trendiness. In addition to SSH, there's also VNC and IRC. The smartphone has increased my productivity, so it's a piece of fad tech that I think will stay.
I haven't figured out the tablet...every scenario calls for either a smartphone or a laptop (or both).
I predict we'll get in a lot more trouble, but I for one like to believe I will get some time to do all the fun projects I have to put off now. Maybe things that now seem impractical or prohibitively expensive will get done. The egyptians showed us a large amount of cheap labor can produce wonders that still boggle the mind, what about large amounts of educate, dedicated labor?

libmalware depended on libkeylogger3.6.1 which depended on libmalware0.9 and fuck...
I installed windows and it was so much easier to get rootkitted. Damn linux dorks.
Out of mod points, but I don't run as root. I've learned to like sudo, it took a while, but it is the Right Thing To Do.
The only time I have a root console open is when I absolutely must have it.
1% of 10% is smaller than .7% of 90%.

And in reality, no one alive would have thought "XBox One" would follow the Xbox360, if given a set of about 16 reasonable choices.

Well I for one welcome our new nipple overlords!
I think I'd rather start with the tits and shaft, that is certainly "stuff that matters".
I'm not sure that former owners of anti-virus companies are really all that interesting, and this one seems to have a fuller life than most.

9th graders with new routers? Maybe in Denmark, not in the US.
If human labor is trivialized, who NEEDS a job?

No, not even crickets would touch that.
