So what exactly are those idiots proposing at News Corpse, do what we will say, or we will, what exactly, get every one to vote Labour when Labour already are at war with News Corpse. Reality is Malcolm Turnbull can pretty much tell News Corpse to go fuck itself because News Corpse has now where else to go. The whole thing is laughable. So do not do it or else we will attack you an then what the opposition will do it anyhow and laugh whilst they are doing it. It's like the empty threat of the year. For google to get their way, they will have to sweeten the pot with a major data centre and do think laws will not change to force it anyone. Zero data being off shored will become a legal requirement in the end.
Forget about privacy for individuals, consider this is an attack by Republicans and the core target, the competitve advantage of small and medium business and opening up they proprietary information to major corporations.
This is a real and present threat to every single company that connects to the internet, every single business needs to understand that all their information flow across the internet will not be accessible to competitors especially where the executives of the ISPs have a financial interest in those competitors.
How long before they are pulling a M$ and installing compulsorily software as part of their privacy invasive service, how long before they are blackmailing every politician (perhaps they already are), this is the stuff of insanity. Instead of preserving privacy rights, they are attacking them in every way possible. Why is government bugging bad but corporate bugging wonderful, why is you privacy being raped by government bad but your privacy being raped by corporations good.
"M$ haters who are gonna hate no matter what", are you serious, you have to be kidding, Seriously, there is so much to hate about M$, as a piece of shit privacy invasive pack of ass hats, there is no need to bother with "no matter what", there are plenty of reasons to well and truly loathe that pack ass hat.
In this case, the claim is poor little M$ could not afford to buy one Linux computer to test it before putting it out, way beyond their tiny little budget, pity the poor softies. There are plenty of reasons to hate M$, none need to be made up.
According to the latest vault 7 https://sputniknews.com/world/... (I simply could not resist using that particular news resource), grabbing phones is not about getting stuff off the phone, it is about getting stuff on the phone. You take someone's phone and then hand them back, 'your', phone because they do not own it any more, it just spies on them from there in on.
Once they take your digital gear, just accept it as lost for ever, buy an new replacement (it has to be new) and sell the old, pretty guaranteed to be hacked one, on ebay and let them spy on someone else. Same when travelling through customs, they do not take you phone to get data off, they take it to get a series of programs on. Been through customs with you phone and you lost sight of it for a couple of minutes, well, sucker you should have dumped it right away because the chances that phone that someone else now owns has been spying on you since then.
Problem is you do not need to be violent to be arrested for violence. Typical procedure for corrupt officials when protests are near major donors. Undercover officers go into the protest, instigate violence, wander through the police barricade and then corrupt law enforcers wade into the peaceful protesters claiming violence, violence all right, those law enforcers brutally attacking peaceful protesters. How many thousands have been arrested for violent crimes, only for those charges to be dropped, after those innocent victims where brutalised and assaulted by out of control law enforcers.
The most logical cause for the fire, this based upon EU and US claims about the Ukraine government being extremely corrupt and incompetent, someone stole a bunch of arms and munitions and wanted to cover up the theft by setting the facility on fire. The likely destination of those stolen arms and munitions, the same place as so much of Ukraine's other stolen arms and munitions (the reason why the Ukraine was so incompetent in a war against it's own), where ever illegal arms merchants currently profit the most, from the Middle East to Africa, who ever is the highest bidder, whether it Saudi Arabia, the CIA, or some other despot or war lord whether or not they are pretending to be religious freaks. So likely a quick check on vehicles that left that compound in the last few weeks, will lead you directly to the culprits. It is even possible those arms and munitions might not even be leaving the Ukraine but are to be used in a new even more radical coup than the last, good luck to Ukraine's neighbours and the US will likely need to be stationing more troops around the Ukraine whilst pretending they are about Russian aggression. US control of the situation seems to be deteriorating, 5 billion plus pissed away, apart from the gold the US was able to steal from Ukrainians, watch the disappear into private coffers.
Cost is not everything, that is pretty dumb economic thinking. Cost efficiency is everything, the return on capital investment. With branded solar energy systems, retained capital investment is as important as energy generated. Want it the price of a home with a top quality solar energy system versus a home without one. What premium can you start to charge on a home where the supply charge for electricity is higher than the cost of actual supply of electricity, a house that is basically black out proof. Where energy running cost for a car heads to zero.
So in mid level housing density, how close to an effective solar energy system for a two story town house, where a premium is paid, due to limited are for panels. It makes no sense with solar panels to have them anywhere else but as close as practicable to the point of demand, screw the insensate greed of the energy companies. Doing away with the electrical grid all together in suburban low density housing would be a major victory for the majority, screw the energy companies, they can pretty much choke on their own gas (tee hee).
How about some lateral thinking. Literally there is a huge difference between saying the universe, microverse, macroverse and megaverse are a simulation (once you go there, you go there) to saying we are 'living' in a computer simulation. One statement is not the same as the other. The reality is, yes, we do 'live' in a computer simulation, the one crafted in our own minds by our genes.
Once you understand a belief it ceases to exist, a genetic thought structure. That light bulb affect is a real cerebral event, as thoughts are deconstructed across the brain to create a new thought construct, a major change in our internal simulation of the outside world. That computer simulation we leave in, where our brain is the computer, not just individually but the likely quantum one we share based upon out genetic ability to do so.
Did you know you are a little behind the times. CO2 is no longer the big threat (yes, man made global warming is real), methane has become an extreme threat due to global warming. No longer just melting permafrost from Russia to Greenland but the Arctic sea itself http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sci....
Peaks in weather reflect changes over time as the ocean absorb heat and warmer seas impact weather.
Now the interesting period starts, where peak weather events, can now become extremely dangerous. A extreme high temperature weather event can trigger a mass release of methane, which will feed into that event hugely exacerbating it. Will it occur and when will it occur, have fun with dice because it is a far more complex event than simple climate modelling, in comparison.
How bad could it be, how about a decades worth of melting in a season due to the location and the impact of methane on heat retention. That weather event could trigger a climate event that could last quite a few years, and a century of sea level rise could occur in those years. Cheer up, after the even is over the methane would start breaking down and the planet would start cooling due to ocean absorption of heat and mass cloud formation, reflecting sunlight. Of course reasons to celebrate might be a bit muted with coastal areas under more than a metre of sea water (that metre could well be a huge low ball guess). Time to panic, well I would genuinely recommend not investing in likely underwater properties. So places in the world in far more danger than others. For the US retiring in Florida right now would be a pretty stupid idea.
How about a more cogent argument. Sure electric planes will be possible, the real problem will be speed. That is of course the speed of the plane itself, this is a real double negative outcome, not only will passengers dislike the slow speed of the plane but it will naturally make it much more expensive. The longer the plane takes to make a flight, the less flights in can make and the greater the impact of that slow flight upon the capital return for that investment. Compare it what will be it's major competitor, high speed rail. The advantages of rail, it will be faster, it can provide high quality services much cheaper than a plane (a private cabin). About the only place for electric planes is the private market as legislation is likely to be introduced the excesses of the fuckwit class who desire to consume and pollute as much as possible, so private jets will likely end up being banned, straight up no excuse for that disgusting excess.
Likely the aliens would be looking upon the US with, well, that was a stupid idea, with regard to lead in fuels, lead water pipes and firing lead bullets in concentrated doses on gun ranges. Look how stupid in made them, keep in mind the current rank of politicians all are that generation of lead addled fuckwits as are their core of older voters. So yes, bad memories, limited thought, reduced morality and a range of really destructive outcomes (insane greed, high level child molestation, destroying the planet, wars for fun, torture and mass attacks on the rights of citizens and workers).
Why would anyone publicise blackmail. Seriously, think about it, makes no sense at all. It publicly forces Apple into a corner where they are aiding and abetting crime by paying the ransom, so no ransom can be paid. So a mass invasion of privacy, why, no ransom? So who benefits by a publicised mass invasion or privacy, someone who already hugely and grossly invades privacy on a mass scale and wants to attack Apple to prove it can not provide privacy. Only one culprit really fits that bill and corporate espionage on all sorts of scale was inevitable and is happening. So which corporation most hates Apples ability to sell 'you' privacy, whilst that disgusting filthy vile company is selling 'your' privacy, M$. This really does stink of a corporate funded attack, maybe not from the top but most certainly from a major investor.
For Apple to prove itself it must act with an extreme corporate legal vengeance, can Apple buy privacy, in this case it most certainly, by offering ten times the blackmail demand with reward for the culprits and those who paid them. Most likely source of the hackers, corrupt intelligence services, contracts or ex-agents (Turkey recently conducted a purge).
Digital rights is an ugly theft of words implying the rights of people, rather than the rights of greed ie digital wrongs. Where is the right to privacy, absent. Where it the right to the truth, absent. Where is the right to freedom from censorship, absent. All that is covered is the digital right to greed and the ability to print money and censor and silence the public, think those digital wrongs tools wont be extended out to mass censorship, how wrong you are.
It sounds like your understanding of brain function is woefully inadequate. Regardless of what you think you think, drugs that mimic brain chemicals (they fit the same molecular key and trigger cerebral physiological functions) will alter your behaviour, completely and totally, from simply dying on the spot as a result of the wrong combination or an excess to altered social interaction to fight or flight to sleeping to waking to everything that goes on in your head. Things that cause susceptibility an addiction of what ever chemical type are considered a disease just like any other genetic condition that is considered a disease https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.... Feels good should not even be considered a proper psychological term because it is far more accurate as feels betters or feels worse because it is a relative brain chemical state and some people are simply incapable of certain socially accepted feelings because they can not achieve the brain chemical states naturally ie psychopaths have no real concept of happiness due to genetic disability and are at risk from oxycodone addiction because they lack the ability to produce those chemicals at appropriate levels at appropriate times.
Those who value greed more than happiness, will be unhappy. Sad but true and note they will make all those around them unhappy too, that greed attacks the happiness of others.
VR is troublesome in terms of head motions and screen motions but of course if you take the motion out and just go with a fixed view, is becomes the cheapest way to provide a massive screen in terms of viewer viewpoint. So glasses done properly at an optometrist to minimise size, no adjustable lenses, just user specific fit, it hugely expands the use of smart phones. Augmented reality is a part of that, low process, see through the glasses, high process, cameras mounted on the glasses that present an external view.
Could you not imagine lying back in bed, glasses on watching what appears to be a 150" screen, with either really pleasant video https://www.youtube.com/watch?... (just the thing for you next augmented reality business meeting) or even fixed field of view gaming.
It's the law, innocent until proven guilty. So the judge failed to prove the person did remember the password, hence the judge is in contempt of justice. In order to prosecute for failure to remember and state a password, the court must prove the defendant does remember it, otherwise they a just fucking guessing because that is what they want, a really horrific corruption of the justice system.
Think of the ramifications, the court claims you saw something with no evidence of proof of that claim, you say you did not and they imprison you until you say what they want you to say. You can not legally force memory, to force people to remember and just to be clear, how many you idiots got 100% on every exam you ever took, well, according to shit for brains judge, you put down the incorrect answer on purpose. Courts are not for fucking guessing, want to make a fucking claim, then fucking prove it.
Likely what is happening is the number of people signing up is lower that Google finnancial analyst would like or is in within acceptable targets, so they are investing in other areas. As time goes by and the inevitable desire for quality broadband increases (bluntly old luddites die of and are replaced by internet aware millenials, just one example), so they will increase investment in areas which will shift from low take up to high take up. When you a are wiring a whole country, that means, whole regions will miss out with low up take fore cast against regions with high up take, just the way it it.
Should you be bitter, well, bluntly yes, but bitter against your government and not google (that would be local, state and federal corrupt bias in favour of existing incumbent telecoms). Want access, then your only choice is to relocate to a home with google fibre access.
The controls are not about prevent stalking. You seem to fail to grasp the concept, those control make stalking invisible to the end user, take all the reward from the stalker and simply end the problem. There should be a range of controls on all social media platforms, that allow the end user to filter and moderate their own feed. Most games have an ignore setting for chat, which is really quite useful, crazy politics and religion and just set them to ignore, they are still there, probably, maybe, but who cares. So for those that need it a gif filter as well as an ignore filter and if appropriate and with the approval of the applicable authorities and ignore and forward to the authorities setting (they can process the number of repeat offences and their content to ascertain whether a legal response is required, after validating the accuracy and origins of the content). Further information in this case indicates the penalty was for talking and harassment, rather than a single gif. Social media sites simply need to add more tools to allow the end user to have better control over what content is 'delivered' to them.
Keh? ah missed the tiniest bit of satire, I personally think high speed rail is an excellent idea and more countries should follow suit, especially Australia, hint, hint;). How much did the internet access cost, by the way or was it included which would be really cool.
I am an unbashed gamer long gaming sessions normally start at the eight hour mark ie like a work day. Think about it, if a work day is deemed as appropriate for extended behaviour, considering for me the bulk of those hours were in front of a computer. A reasonable long gaming session should be at least equal to a working day, else that working day could be considered abusive and indicative of mental harm, just saying. So long gaming session as in, is it at all possible to get past the eight hour mark, allowing for a lunch break and mornin' smoko. Screw all those who think eight hours of mind numbing work is good and eight hours of gaming is evil (greed affected thinking).
Likely reason for the departures at high level, they believe the company will implode prior to the IPO cash in, so no reward for staying. They would be spitting chips, greed at the top, delayed the IPO too long and now it is too late. No matter how bad, the banksters still would have been able to scam a high price at IPO but executive departure would be indicative that they do not expect the company to get there and then can make more money by taking their skills and built up knowledge elsewhere.
Would it not be simpler just to go with parrallel networks. One purely internal with all data secured and encrypted and the other open to the internet for internet communications. The secure network has only one point of digital data input, by network security staff. Who take in new data, scan and validate it, prior to loading onto the internal secure network. Smart terminals on the secure network with only manual data input, no possibility of adding data digitally to the secure network.
The comms network open to the internet, meh, who cares (just needs to be set up so it can be rebuilt quickly and easily. Need banking access via computer, than that is all that computer does, nothing else what so ever and physically disconnected from the network when not it use.
If it does not absolutely need to be connected to the internet, do not connect it. If it does need to be connected to the internet make sure it only does what it needs to do with that internet connection, do not use it for anything else. Fuck the cloud. Want secure, sneaker net, locked doors and physically restricted access are the only way to go. To secure digital infrastructure you must try to force direct physical access, safer for you and enormously harder and more riskier for them. Never forget your third network an alarmed honey pot, they will always look for the easiest way in and that should always be a honey pot so you can know when you are being targeted.
That is really awful. Georgia, the Russian were there as UN approved peace keepers when Georgia attacked under US provocation by US lobbyists with McCain as the key go between to use it in the US election at that time. The Crimea was a part of Russia and given to the Ukraine by the so called evil Soviet Union, if the Soviet Union did it by US definition it is evil, than that act was also evil, so the Crimeans choose to return. How many countries has the US actually invaded, pushed through coups, launched terrorist wars. According to you all the US nukes should have spontaneously self detonated due to the recorded and validated depth and breath of evil committed by the various US governments, serving the greed of various US corporations, chief of which is Goldman Sachs.
High energy lasers are just plain stupid. Low energy radiation targeted at the transistors themselves to switch their states is more than sufficient, done well it can not only prevent activation but can trigger it, right in the silo. Similar targeted radiation can fry the brains of crew, either temporarily or permanently. You can even trigger effects at the target zone by resonant application of energy and coinciding waves, so it will pass through everything but generate the desired effect at the target location, from strokes to memory loss (use quite a bit of energy but still way less than dumb lasers).
Keep playing stupid games and you will end up destroying yourselves and the US is well on the way there, cutting social services and infrastructure spending to pretend to fight wars using crap equipment with massive profit margins. Crap planes and broken ships, the US has to go to war with no one to start losing ships and planes to corporate greed, simply failing again and again till they have to be replaced and failing again and again until they have to be replaced ad nauseum.
Still waffle shit, when the US is increasing defence spending by the equivalent of the total Russian defence budget, whilst Russia is cutting theirs by 30% to spend on infrastructure, honestly, who the fuck do you think will win in the end based on that. I hope Americans can learn to eat tanks, planes, and ships (I hope swimming lessons are compulsory in the US for coastal cities likely to be victims of rising sea levels, any place with major bridges and all those town downstream from damns). I know, blah, blah, blah, more guns more bullets, kill, kill, kill, the bible sez so (no it doesn't).

You seem to fail to grasp the concept, those control make stalking invisible to the end user, take all the reward from the stalker and simply end the problem. There should be a range of controls on all social media platforms, that allow the end user to filter and moderate their own feed. Most games have an ignore setting for chat, which is really quite useful, crazy politics and religion and just set them to ignore, they are still there, probably, maybe, but who cares. So for those that need it a gif filter as well as an ignore filter and if appropriate and with the approval of the applicable authorities and ignore and forward to the authorities setting (they can process the number of repeat offences and their content to ascertain whether a legal response is required, after validating the accuracy and origins of the content). Further information in this case indicates the penalty was for talking and harassment, rather than a single gif. Social media sites simply need to add more tools to allow the end user to have better control over what content is 'delivered' to them.
Keh? ah missed the tiniest bit of satire, I personally think high speed rail is an excellent idea and more countries should follow suit, especially Australia, hint, hint ;). How much did the internet access cost, by the way or was it included which would be really cool.
I am an unbashed gamer long gaming sessions normally start at the eight hour mark ie like a work day. Think about it, if a work day is deemed as appropriate for extended behaviour, considering for me the bulk of those hours were in front of a computer. A reasonable long gaming session should be at least equal to a working day, else that working day could be considered abusive and indicative of mental harm, just saying. So long gaming session as in, is it at all possible to get past the eight hour mark, allowing for a lunch break and mornin' smoko. Screw all those who think eight hours of mind numbing work is good and eight hours of gaming is evil (greed affected thinking).
Likely reason for the departures at high level, they believe the company will implode prior to the IPO cash in, so no reward for staying. They would be spitting chips, greed at the top, delayed the IPO too long and now it is too late. No matter how bad, the banksters still would have been able to scam a high price at IPO but executive departure would be indicative that they do not expect the company to get there and then can make more money by taking their skills and built up knowledge elsewhere.
Would it not be simpler just to go with parrallel networks. One purely internal with all data secured and encrypted and the other open to the internet for internet communications. The secure network has only one point of digital data input, by network security staff. Who take in new data, scan and validate it, prior to loading onto the internal secure network. Smart terminals on the secure network with only manual data input, no possibility of adding data digitally to the secure network.
The comms network open to the internet, meh, who cares (just needs to be set up so it can be rebuilt quickly and easily. Need banking access via computer, than that is all that computer does, nothing else what so ever and physically disconnected from the network when not it use.
If it does not absolutely need to be connected to the internet, do not connect it. If it does need to be connected to the internet make sure it only does what it needs to do with that internet connection, do not use it for anything else. Fuck the cloud. Want secure, sneaker net, locked doors and physically restricted access are the only way to go. To secure digital infrastructure you must try to force direct physical access, safer for you and enormously harder and more riskier for them. Never forget your third network an alarmed honey pot, they will always look for the easiest way in and that should always be a honey pot so you can know when you are being targeted.
That is really awful. Georgia, the Russian were there as UN approved peace keepers when Georgia attacked under US provocation by US lobbyists with McCain as the key go between to use it in the US election at that time. The Crimea was a part of Russia and given to the Ukraine by the so called evil Soviet Union, if the Soviet Union did it by US definition it is evil, than that act was also evil, so the Crimeans choose to return. How many countries has the US actually invaded, pushed through coups, launched terrorist wars. According to you all the US nukes should have spontaneously self detonated due to the recorded and validated depth and breath of evil committed by the various US governments, serving the greed of various US corporations, chief of which is Goldman Sachs.
High energy lasers are just plain stupid. Low energy radiation targeted at the transistors themselves to switch their states is more than sufficient, done well it can not only prevent activation but can trigger it, right in the silo. Similar targeted radiation can fry the brains of crew, either temporarily or permanently. You can even trigger effects at the target zone by resonant application of energy and coinciding waves, so it will pass through everything but generate the desired effect at the target location, from strokes to memory loss (use quite a bit of energy but still way less than dumb lasers).
Keep playing stupid games and you will end up destroying yourselves and the US is well on the way there, cutting social services and infrastructure spending to pretend to fight wars using crap equipment with massive profit margins. Crap planes and broken ships, the US has to go to war with no one to start losing ships and planes to corporate greed, simply failing again and again till they have to be replaced and failing again and again until they have to be replaced ad nauseum.
Still waffle shit, when the US is increasing defence spending by the equivalent of the total Russian defence budget, whilst Russia is cutting theirs by 30% to spend on infrastructure, honestly, who the fuck do you think will win in the end based on that. I hope Americans can learn to eat tanks, planes, and ships (I hope swimming lessons are compulsory in the US for coastal cities likely to be victims of rising sea levels, any place with major bridges and all those town downstream from damns). I know, blah, blah, blah, more guns more bullets, kill, kill, kill, the bible sez so (no it doesn't).
