Social media advertising, hmm, how about people start taking some social responsibility for the ads they show on their web sites.
Reality is you show an ad for a product on your website, then you are promoting, you are claiming that it is true and you are recommending it to your readers. This whole social responsibility disassociation of web site from the ad the show and hence the products they promote is bullshit. Websites should be made legally liable for the products they promote should the information about those products prove false. They are earning money to spread lies and based upon that should be liable for those lies.
You left out the bit about, it also includes any person or person who happen to be in the near vicinity at the time, death sentence by proximate association, all inclusive of sex, age, innocence or guilt. So a terrorist baby in a combat assault pram who happens to be too close at the time of the is also guilty and sentenced to death. The only people convicted by memo here, is the ones who criminally wrote the memo and the ones who criminally acted based upon the memo.
As these in secret negotiations involve elected under oath officials and multi-national corporations, how close to treason are they becoming. Surely a public audit is required of those negotiation to ensure those government officials have not crossed the line into treason.
Yes, but have they been patented yet. That's all that counts forget prior art, forget obviousness, all that counts to US patents lawyers is has it been patented yet in the US and can they force people to spend millions of dollars in US courts fighting over patent no matter how bullshit that patent is.
Of course any attempt to discuss Unions in the work place will result in instant dismissal for the employee initiating the pro-Union conversation. So mind you conversations at the work place, say nothing in any way critical of management. Say nothing about politics. Say nothing about religion. Of course if you want to get ahead, do the opposite and just make sure it aligns with the managements personal preferences.
It is nothing at all to do with the US, it is quite simply up to countries to legislate to local ISPs to point to local DNS servers by default and how those local DNS servers are run is up to those government. Nothing more and nothing less, so the imperialist US government can basically bugger off with it servers until such time as they come to agreement with other countries. Otherwise all those companies that invested in international but seized by US imperialist domains can complain to the US about their lost investment.
Greed drives stupidity. Hence no matter what is claimed about psychopathic greed by psychopaths poor decisions are the natural normal result of greed. Greed is not the same as self interest, that is the lie of the psychopath. Self interest is I'm hungry and need a loaf of bread, psychopathic greed is If I get all the loaves of bread I can starve everyone else into obedience and force them to obey me as slaves as I abuse the, mwah hah hah and it really is that sick and pathetic. To be ready is to eliminate the psychopath and prevent the problem form ever occurring.
You kind of missed that whole treaties and alliances bit, didn't you;). Those countries that work together will make it work, those that don't wont get to play. All the central body needs to do is register and acknowledge those treaties and alliances. The US really screwed the pooch when they nabbed.gov and.mil and so supremely arrogantly pretend like.gov.us and.mil.us don't exist to the point of not even redirecting them, as they as they are concerned they are the global government and the global military. Which is exactly why other countries need to take over.gov and.mil and locally redirect them to their own government and military. So another centralised control to be run from behind by US corporations, nah, not liking that idea much at all.
I'd expect them to be a whole lot more 'reliable' than the NSA fiddled with variants. Let's not pretend it is nothing more than that. With a country the size and capability of Russia it would be pretty silly to leave it's essential IT infrastructure reliant on the US, China or the EU. It is a sound logical decision to have all essential IT and communication infrastructure based upon locally built and audited components and if there are any 'er' special features they are theirs and not someone else's. It is becoming very much, who can we trust with our digital communications, NO ONE, especially not our own government agencies. As for designing CPUs, well, I believe the US have laws that govern that, when it comes to national security any defence contractor is legally allowed to infringe upon patents and copyrights as they see fit and keep it secret, so one suspects Russia will hardly behave any differently. Of course when they 'er' borrow designs they will have to check rather carefully for hidden features, so it would be far smarter to borrow specific elements of CPU architecture, rather than the whole whole CPU architecture.
Of course making exact copies of other countries chips does provide the advantage of adding your chips with built in special features into their supply chain, so fun all round. All brought to you by those big ole bag of dicks who thought is was all so much more fun to break computer security then legally enforce it.
So fine. Let's all play the new MMO, DRONE, what will make it even more fun are all those real world consequences, just likes 'CARS', come join in the carnage, people dying, people suffering permanent disability and property damage on a new scale. No longer will just a few isolated homes be subject to random damage as associated with 'CARS', now no home, apartment or even high rise will be safe.
Lag, has new meaning where in flight at critical times, failure can mean death, for real. Signal interference, lighting, excess signal traffic and, overloaded airspace, all combine to make 'DRONE' the fun new MMO. Not to forget the criminal element and straight up idiots, all combining to bring the great fun of 'CARS' to a new environment, with 'DRONE' no back yard is safe, no front yard, nor the bit inbetween where the targets sit waiting for their 'DRONE' visit.
The more you have, the more accidents you will have and the more likely they will be banned. The purpose of drone is to bring flight more cheaply into the commercial environment due to not having to support a pilot, in terms of mass and of course safety requirements. With cheap being the focus of drone development, expensive will be the consequences.
In many sensible countries, remote control aircraft are banned from general airspace and restricted to specific model aircraft flying zones. Swopping magpies https://www.youtube.com/watch?... are bad enough without adding in some idiots drones to the mix.
Greed is the problem. Sheer insensate insatiable greed is consuming the whole system and education is just part of that system that is also collapsing. Snarling animals fighting in a pit, the more they fight, the less they have, so the more they fight. Greed is consuming US society, starving it into collapse. The illusion of marketing is predominating all, attempting to hide the reality of the harm greed is causing. Blame it on government, blame it on corporations but never ever blame it on the person in the mirror. The US government has become exactly what Americans have allowed it to become, a puppet of US corporations run by psychopaths and everything else is being torn down with it. Government is never corrupt, individuals within government are corrupt and of course those paying the bribes from private industry are corrupt. Don't forget, they are always the minority because when they cease to be a minority the country collapses and ceases to be. They are social parasites consuming ever more resources creating vast piles of economic dung that they live in, starving out the rest of society, until it all collapses. This failing is just another sign of that collapse.
The whole thing doesn't make any sense at all. Let each country do it's own DNS as it sees fit and via treaty and alliances align those DNS records as they see fit. As long as the IP address work the DNS is nothing more than simplifying address entry with a gross corporatised delusion of economic value (marketing, marketing and more marketing, brand names, squatters, sex sells, hell it even sells domain names). At the end of the day it is still up to the individual user where the hell they point the browser in domain name lookup and the major ISPs haven't even started playing the DNS name game by forcefully pointing their customers at internal DNS servers with a new for sale yet again Domain name.
You left out a couple of words, toxic and wasteful. Not only do they drive pointless consumerism but that consumerism drives pollution and the waste of essential resources. Basically myopic insatiable greed destroying humanities future to feed today's egoistic lusts of a psychopathic minority.
For a start let's stop considering those who choose to corrupt politics and democracy as being either liberal or conservative, clearly they themselves do not believe in either only seeking to use them for purpose of camouflage and masquerade as they seek to defraud the people who trust them. As for monitoring cell phone traffic and claiming it as a service, yep, sure a service to big brother and the panopticon http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P... and only those in power can be trusted and the rest of us are all criminals. Why is it all of these systems of monitoring some how seem to miss those who are most likely to cause the greatest problem by being corrupt. New law is required, those who accept and run for public office should be subject to 24/7 public monitoring for their term in office, after all if they don't like they can always quit.
Shouldn't that mathematical operations also extend to database operations where data is converted into mathematically applied operations. How many patents have flooded the system that are nothing more than column and row name descriptions with simplest data base functions applied. How the hell are they giving away patents the straight forward creation of a database.
I always thought the next big speed jump would be stabilising the OS and GUI and getting it inside the CPU, for much faster boots and better multi-tasking ie all OS functions running parallel and separate to application functions, the advantage of FOSS OS, more general acceptance. Endless upgrades driven by M$ wanting the sell the same software over and over again seems such a waste.
You lie https://www.google.com.au/maps..., Republican (for most of the rest of the world that's now recognised as an insult without any embellishment, well, as long as you're referring to an American variant or someone behaving like an American variant).
Google street view makes a mockery of that statement. US roads, US footpaths, US kerbs and gutters (often none at all in metro areas or suburbs), US line marking (typical worn to invisibility even in the in CBDs), US street lighting, US traffic lights, US bridges, are all pretty crap on average and somewhere between 1st world and third world dependent upon local regions, wealth of the region not being a real indicator, more greediness of the residence being the greatest indicator, with some pretty crappy public thorough fares in some really wealthy areas. When it comes to federally funded spaghetti loops of freeways, well you certainly beat the rest of the world at that but I don't think you are really 'winning' there either.
Now might be the time to invest in plain old fashioned postal services. Still need a warrant, can trace opening or closing and, secrets can be personally delivered. What you can be will happen is cloud services are going to take a real hammering, everything is going to start shifting back in house and more parallel networking is going. One network and computer system for internet and unsecure communications and another internal network and computer system for secured data. Data only shifts from one to the other via the computer security office, after is has been checked and audited. If you are going to stick you data on the cloud, you might as well stick a big screen display on your front wall and stream all you most valuable information straight to the public. Industrial and commercial espionage is with out doubt the number goal of this exercise, hundreds of billions of dollars are up for grabs with this kind of global inside information, insider trading, trade secrets, patent research and, of course extortion upon a global scale, personal, industrial leaders and politicians.
An interesting and dangerous reminder of the nature of bitcoins. I am sure there were many bitcoin users who expressly intended to cheat on taxes and hide other criminal financial transactions. I'd bet a lot of them wont be laughing until, well, Mark Karpeles, 'er', twitters no more. Likely safest place for him right now is prison. Bitcoin is a seriously dangerous currency to play with.
The drawing board. I always thought the quickest computer was one that contained the most specific cores to handle specific types of calculations and specific operations. We seem to have slowed down in that regard, getting more cores but not specific operation cores, also getting more functions inside the CPU itself rather than scattered all over the motherboard, with data having to travel huge distances.
Don't forget to add in a years worth of savings of an electric car, basically 1 tenth the cost in electricity compared to buying gasoline. There is the fun factor, a toss, up, freedom to stop anywhere vs the driver get to chill for the whole trip, there and back. Safety. If something goes wrong with the hire car, meh, get another one, if something goes wrong with your car in a distant city, crap, crap, crap, crap, crap. I did mention high speed rail, shame about that. Airlines of course have lobbyists and they killed that idea, regardless of social benefits. Of course the biggest question of all, does your family like trains or prefer driving, don't be cheap;).
Well for those long distance trips catch a sleeper on a train and rent on location, hell with high speed rail, oh wait the Republicans killed those, I was going to say you wouldn't even need the sleeper, just a seat and luggage space and quicker than the car without all of the fuss of a plane.
Lets be honest is was more than just the name that was the problem, there was also the very unflattering logo (which is part of the trademarks) and the behaviour associated with using the name and the logo, clothing worn by supporters, including derogatory chants and sayings. Then there is the question of whether or not native Americans have first and sole right to their cultural emblems and whether any company has the right to trademark the emblems out from underneath them. So the other team which would be questionable would be the 'Vikings' and whether or not Scandinavians would take offence, which they are most certainly be entitled again because of the name, the logos and the way they are portrayed.
