In a free market, the larger players buy out the smaller players, create enforced monopolies, prices rise and service falls and eventually people start dying. Government steps in and is force to write a whole slew of regulation to prevent to try to prevent recurrence and of course break up the monopolies, to big to fail means to big to allow to exist.
Free market internet and the backbone players will no longer cooperate and start demanding a publishing fee for all content, they will also censor at will. Any new players they will actively bankrupt by temporarily dropping prices at the critical capital investment phase whilst revenue is still to be generated.
They never ever charge a fair price based upon actual costs. They charge the highest possible price for the lowest possible service that is at the limit of what their majority market can afford and the minority beyond that, well, screw them is the response.
Consider the end user location of the device, corporate and government boardrooms. Security is a real issue and has such an accessible audit able construction facility a requirement. Customer pressure is bringing change, slowly but surely and the more pressure the greater the change. Want to outsource and offshore, fine sell your product to your outsourced offshore location, don't pretend it is local product and local customers should give it any preference. There can be a real push to force secure by design, in all of it's requirements, no obscurity and all local audited manufacture.
As the supplier, you can only ever do what your customers allow you to do. Deny history all you want, M$ has a terrible track record http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C....
That is called a parliamentary style government where the head of the lower house is elected by the other elected members to be the leader of the government and can be readily voted out. The president then becomes more a figure head role, to basically ensure the other elected representatives stick to the rules.
I don't get, what you don't get about the idea of extortion and it's basis and, that it implies corruption. It just seems that many statements seem to have very little political benefit for him and just make him look publicly much worse and should ego be the driver for the original corruption as it normally is, then ego will also seek to not damage the public image of the egoist. So less likely to be one of them and more likely to be controlled by them but inherently that control by others was accepted in order to gain corrupt benefit. The corrupt egoist politician will inherently seek to make themselves look great and will refuse to take actions that destroy their public image, when they do so, it is a sign that others are controlling some of their actions are making use of the discovered corruption in order to force actions the ego of the politician would prefer not to take because it damages their image.
Would not MMOs be different. As they only produce the initial episode of the game around someone else's engine and then continue to produce additional content to keep players and to attract more new players. So rather than a bet all you money on a single outcome you get to invest only a portion at a time based upon returns. The real problem with gaming now is everybody is trying to eat everyone else's lunch and marketing is not cutting it any more when it comes to generating sufficient sales to match the investment. That and of course a truly massive back catalogue. There is likely reasonable money in picking up old content and doing nothing more than upgrading graphics output and re-releasing it.
The Gaming industry has hit the wall of, there is only so much time available to play games and there is only so much money to spend on playing games and old content competes very strongly with new content.
Still not realistic cause for legal requirement to disclose information pertaining to all those individuals who made comments. A straight up fishing expedition, admittedly a likely very successful fishing expedition (the psychology of the individuals involved means they cant resist childishly rebelling) but still a fishing expedition, likely to be far more successful for the IRS rather than the FBI. In fact this is a pretty solid sign that the whole web site, it's operators and funders as well as it's subscribers digital and snail mail, are all going to come under intense and covert investigation (they likely have earned their very own 'unit' http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B...).
Isn't DMS the most significant message of the Obama administration along with what collateral damage, there was no collateral damage, we intended every to be a recipient of the DMS message. DMS being of course https://www.thebureauinvestiga.... It seems that the very first DMS sent by Obama three days into his control, created the first nine non-collateral damage victims and the numbers of victims only grew from there, along with the number of terrorists needed to be targeted by DMS messages. So no BFYTW from Obama, just a random DMS based upon, usually very inaccurate bulk collection of data.
Now why is Obama coming off like a puppet in these discussion and exactly how much dirt does the NSA and CIA have on him, to keep him so tightly on the leash from day one or is that day three.
Perhaps M$ was hoping to be the MITM with it's OS and thus HSTS was not in it's interests but with Android and OS X making deep inroads into internet communications, being the MITM became unrealistic. So if M$ can't play no one else should be able to. Of course corrupt ISPs seem destined to seek MITM roles in order to inflate profits for as long as they can get away with it. ISPs can always try to force the installation of specific MITM software in order to use their network, this until such time as specific legislation prohibits that attempt and of course how far that legislation extends to other players including the Android and Apple marketplace.
So it seems the real problem with the FBI like so many other US government agencies, is how the Head of the Organisation is appointed and how much power they have.
It seems pretty much a screw up to allow one single head of the FBI with all that power. Likely much like another board appointed to oversea application of the law, 'a jury'. Rather than one person with all that enormous power, appointing 12 persons with proven experience and appropriate qualifications to manage and control the organisation according to law, makes a lot more sense.
Creating the requirement that 12 people must sit down to craft and apply policy means a solid record of discussion and validation must exist prior to any policy being applied and this enables government to review those policy decisions. Each of those 12 appointees would also hold other leadership roles within that government organisation. Consider how much better various organisation like the NSA, CIA, DOD, would run if all policy discussion and decisions were required to be public. There is absolutely no reason for one person to have total control of those organisations, it makes no sense at all and is extremely dangerous and has routinely been abused by that one person.
Just like I said, only up for debate by psychopaths. It is going to be a different world when the psychopaths can no longer hide and are actively excluded from all roles of governance, control and influence.
The Chinese and Russian are both losing interest in the US government and are focusing on where the real power is, US corporations and their executives and board members. Why spy on the puppet, when it is much more effective to spy on the corruption at actual real top.
The headline is false, the G1+6 vassals only said what should and not what will happen ie ", we emphasize that deep cuts in global greenhouse gas emissions are required with a decarbonisation of the global economy over the course of this century". They only said what was needed not what they will do and the only real goal is "the global goal to hold the increase in global average temperature below 2 ÂC". Note that is an average and does not even focus on the most important location, the Antarctic and keeping those temperatures low because that is the place that really counts. No mention at all of underwater front properties and protecting people from bad investments in properties that are going to be lost.
Not to forget a whopping great Foreign Policy hypocrisy "We, the G7, emphasise the importance of freedom, peace and territorial integrity, as well as respect for international law and respect for human right", basically US coup good and fair, thousands of dead Russians in what used to be Russia and now the Ukraine not a problem, Russian control of Crimea and no dead Russians a problem.
So G1+6 vassals is basically nothing but a PR stunt to push US corporate ideology on the rest of the world, complete with typical buckets of bullshit ie "We welcome progression major ongoing trade negotiations, including on the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP)" what a crock of shit. https://www.g7germany.de/Conte...
Typical Libertarian bull. Business is government, just private government. The only difference between business and government is that the public control government and private individuals control business. Both business and government control sectors of the economy and in turn the resources that the economy controls. Obviously publicly controlled is far more likely to be in the public interest than private controlled which will only be in that private interest. Basically major business interests should be crushed out of existence, big business is extremely dangerous and destructive.
Big government is of course essential to ensure the majority of people have access and input into government. Small government is monarchy and feudalism tiny as only a tiny minority only have input and control, big government is democracy it is huge as it essentially encompass all of it's citizens. Always remember libertarians screech about economic freedom but keep silent when it comes to personal freedom, for them the economic right to own others is that expression of economic freedom over personal freedom.
You will find stuff that is initially modded against the majority preference, it was modded by professionals. Professionals from specific US government agencies and well as major PR firms. Problem is their numbers are lacking, so that their initial influence is soon over come. They also lead often lead off with early off topic comments to fill the first page of comments with empty waffle. This is why they were looking to use software to flood every possible forum with computer generated comments, millions of them, destroying forums they did not like and only leaving forums the contained their computer generated comments only. A vast criminal enterprise as it specifically intends to interfere with an essential part of the democratic process, the exchange of opinions, information and ideas between citizens.
No by providing the URL link to content they voluntarily provided that content the URL refereed to, they gave it to him. You can not provide a compulsory link so someone and then claim they infringed copyright when that link downloaded content. This is not different to delivery a package to someone with say a CD and claiming if they open the package they have to pay for the CD.
Only up for debate by psychopaths, just like global warming, just like austerity economics, just like uncontrolled capitalism and what ever other disingenuous debates psychopaths like to foster in order to continue their egoistic destructive criminal enterprises. http://www.medicaldaily.com/co... as an example. They should be identified at the earliest possible age and tracked, to ensure all who come in contact with them are aware who they are.
Computer models when taking into account no action obviously do not match computer models taking into account action. Obviously idiot lead head (lead head being an interesting failure of greedy corporations to forecast the outcome of lead in fuels used in cities) conservatives do not realise this, hardly a surprise. Normal computer modelling practice is to create several models that reflect different scenarios and responses. To look at the models and ignore the different forecasted possible responses and simply to claim incompetent scientists most of the models where wrong, is so totally conservatively lead head mind bogglingly dumb.
Well, no. That idea is wildly incorrect, psychopaths and narcissists are born not made. With lots of extra effort and careful well managed upbringing their poor behaviour can be moderated but never eliminated. They are basically born with emotional social learning disabilities, the narcissists born with a lack of autonomic empathic response (a emotional learning trigger that teaches them to become a part of a human society ie sharing emotions) with the psychopath also lacking a full range of emotions (brain chemical states they simply can never achieve except via medication).
So current statistics on psychopaths, 1% of general population, 20% of prison population and 50% of violent crimes (those statistics are continuing to rise as more testing is done). So absolutely most definitely not true that all people are born criminals, in reality only a tiny percentage are but the commit many crimes and create many victims, hence they impact is far greater than their number and it makes it seem like the whole human race is corrupt when it is only a tiny minority.
Seriously that is all the morons in this thread get from this story, access to German beer. The United States promotes the American Dream to gain immigrants, becoming a success where the sole measure of success is wealth and thus strives to attract, well, hmm, the greedy. So how are all those get rich quick narcissists and psychopaths working out for America. Hows the corruption going at every level of government, private industry, news organisations, religious organisations and even charities (PS stop calling the American Red Cross the Red Cross, own your own corruption).
So Germany seeks to bring in those who want to learn and the US still purely seeks those who want just want to earn by any means possible. America answer to this waffle on about beer, now what does that remind me of, ohh, that's right typical America media censorship of important stories in favour of empty reality TV fabrications.
In the world of psychopathic corporate finance it is not 'bollocks' and is the norm. Company with solid repuation and high trust are routinely bought by vulture capitalists who pay too much for them and then who strip away all those costs associated with those activities that earned those companies their reputation and trust. The temporary surge in profits is then used to dress up the company for sale at a profit before the consequences of the profit pumping decisions come to light. So the on sold now unreliable and not trustworthy company than collapse as it's reputation collapses and the vulture capitalist strolls off with the profits. Mitt Romney was a specialist at this and destroyed many a company, many jobs and crippled many pension funds but of course he is a conservative hero for doing so.
It is better that tax payer funds are only used to promote participating sports and not spectating sports. Why should people pay to subsidise sports advertising.
America does not produce diesel subs and Australia will not buy a nuclear one, the one and only reason. Clearly the US military tells what ever lies profit the US military industrial complex, quite simply never ever to be trusted.
Asset tracking is not about tools or the process it is about the person. A good asset managers will be able to do a great job with a ream of paper, a pencil, a sharpener, a clip board, a hole punch and a folder. A crap asset manager with all the best tools imaginable will do a shit job and that is it. An asset manager that is looking for software to do their job for them is a bad asset manager.
Managing assets is about keeping track of their effective use, losses, repairs, working life, theft, durability, cost effectiveness measurements, replacement plans and that's just a start (things people often miss, tacking warranties and user manuals, current supplier contact details and maintenance and repair preferences).
So the first and main thing you need is a good experienced asset manager and not some dude who thinks it can all be solved with a bit of software.
The US Navy recently just told the Australian government that submarines will be replaced with much cheaper under long range drone and to not invest in expensive major naval vessels. So based on the US navies own recommendation, why, just why?
