The shill quoted in TFA incorrectly assumes that TLA's have always, and always will, act within the letter and spirit of the law, and within the scope of their organizational charter.
History has amply demonstrated this not to be the case. Any assertion to the contrary is either uninformed or astroturf.
Doesn't even have to be that complicated. A drone trailing a few streamers of aluminum foil flown into the midst of an electrical sub-station will cause the prettiest corona arc flash episode you ever did see.
As a hard-core MMORPG'er, I got fed up with the wasted resources being hogged up by unwanted crap like Cortana and went back to Win 7, which amazingly enough still runs all of my work-related Rockwell and Siemens stuff just fine. Screw Windows 10.
Because Russians remember the 20+ million they lost in WW2 and are never going to let 1941 happen again. They are justifiably paranoid. That's what Westerners do not get about the Russian national psyche. They trust no one, especially the US.
Considering the repetitive, scripted coverage of "news" by the media, I would assert that most journalists have practiced robotic performance for a long time.
If a group of people enjoy building systems and playing games that are beyond the ability of a bunch of bird flappers and mole whackers, why not?
Does that mean we have to dumb down game specs so Rufus the Dufus can play it on a cheap LG tablet?
For what some tablet-pokers spend on Starbucks or Chipotle every year they could probably afford a decent Xidax or Alienware that would at least get them into the mix, though not in the uber 1337 league. You get what you pay for.
OTOH, maybe the games, at least some of them, that have way more depth and complexity than Farmville are just "too hard" for some folks.
So what? Everyone can't shoot hoops against Labron. Everyone can't afford an F1 car. Life just isn't fair, in jobs, relationships, or gaming. Get over it.
TFA is right to point out the chat and social media alternatives. Besides quicker (and often friendlier) response, it's kind of nice to have a support tech or engineer paste a code fix or solution example straight into a chat window for instant use. This particularly works wonders with a certain German electrical, medical, and automation megalith who I will not name.
Still more validation of my intuitive avoidance of social networking sites. I'm eternally grateful that there are still some people left who actually meet and talk in person. We may be a dying breed, but at least we'll die as human beings.
Yeah, invasive drug tests are stupid and counter-productive in many industries. I put up with it as a consequence of my career choice. Being a chronic tinkerer, I like to work in industrial automation and machine programming. I work for a global manufacturer, and we have to drug screen. Our insurance underwriters don't require it per se, but the rates for not doing so are prohibitive. Likewise.gov, where OSHA does not mandate screening, but god help you you if there's a lost-time accident involving an impaired employee. Lawyers can build whole careers on just this.
Only an idiot would show up stoned for a job in a building full of lethal machinery, but the universe is constantly refining and expanding the idiot supply. Factories can't afford the risk.

Golly gee whiz, imagine having to register recreational activities with the government of Chairman Mao's workers' paradise! /sarcasm
Um, no it derives from the Anglo-Saxon dialect otherwise known as Old English. While a Germanic tongue, it was not Hochdeutsch.

Yuse teh forks, Louke.
It's actually a self-secluding underground survival community for rich yuppies being deployed incrementally to save excavation cost.

Putting "tools" together forms an engineering team? Many maintenance techs would agree with that.
Somebody mod up. "Use it or lose it" is a very dangerous situation for all concerned, and why first-strike systems of any kind are so destabilizing.

And the Chair Force is working on moon-based drone submarine interceptors, because we can't have a Nukular* Space Planes gap.
Idiots, all of them.

That was my first thought too. FSB or GRU impersonates a "friendly" LEA, and hey, presto!
8. Lack of need. I got everything I could possibly need out of the box on my phone. No need for redundant adware apps.
Easy. Everyone except the .01% will be drinking Brawndo and watching "Ouch My Balls!" all day.
Except J. Edgar Hoover, Female Body Impersonator.
I like your thinking.

Now the PHB's won't have to even bother with H1B paperwork...the new hires can just claim climate-change refugee status.
You shouldn't have posted this as AC. You deserve credit for one of the more intelligent comments in this thread.
