So this is the new, no fly program, the no financial accounts program. People considered as politically undesirable being targeted by random suppression of rights until they learn to think right, till they learn who is their boss and they learn to obey. Those targeted especially with personal banking are being turned into targets of crime as a result of being forced into a cash economy and well as being denied access to many internet services. This is the early stage, they are attempting to target what they believe the majority of citizens will ignore, prior to ramping this up to target all political opponents.
Lets be blunt, screw the Ukraine and the screaming about world war three, their continual breakdown of government and oligarchs strip mining the economy, pretending to be pro-Russian or pro-European, nationalists or socialist, fascists or communists, all the while only caring about lining their own pockets and in the process destabilising the whole country. First and foremost, Ukraine can keep its own bullshit within the Ukraine, the rest of the world will not be playing world war three or even pretend to. Ukrainians just need to sit down, hold referendums and allow it's citizens in each region go where they will and pretty then much STFU screaming about world war three is just going to earn the Ukraine enemies from all over the globe.
If the US and Russia want to play sanctions then that is pretty much up to them. Russia can go all 'Megaupload' (shutdown and permanently damage a company via investigative raids) on US tech companies operating in Russia thanks precedent set by the US and the practices of the NSA and the US can try to fool the EU that cutting themselves off from Russian primary resources and paying a premium for US resources will be of benefit.
The rest of world of course can pretty much ignore the shenanigans and just let it all peter down to nothing all on it's own, pretty much as it already is.
Welcome to wonderful world of geekdom where focused knowledge can lead to incorrect focus on specifics on information ie bullshit baffles brains. Perhaps introspection is lacking in that particular decision making process and how playing with statistics and probabilities can lead to wrong decision making especially in modern human society allows interactions between controlled social environments and uncontrolled social environments, in terms of medical controls, specifically access to vaccines and high risk population bases.
So probabilities keep them relatively safe but when the dice roll bad, then they are all severely screwed and if they survive will get the remaining vaccines, having already been vaccinated via infection, suffering and recovery against one particular dangerous ailment.
Yep, installed the update and Firefox toolbars went nuts, completely unusable, message in that, watch out for installed themes and preferably remove them. Once the default is theme running and you can see what you are doing, if your into the classic look, like the grumpy old man I am, then add https://addons.mozilla.org/en-... and chill. All is good and still customisable and you can go back to peacefully drifting across the internet promoting that ever so desirable brain chemical flow.
Which is of course why the denial. Does anyone actually believe that denial, not for a second. The US government and it's agencies have all already be caught out repeatedly lying about everything they do, the only things they don't lie about are the ones the keep secret. Now if one were to take those lies into court and count each and every individual criminal action and each and every individual affected and then lied about, you are talking about hundreds of millions even billions of fully automated computerised lies. The NSA is definitely well within the boy who cried wolf stage, with not a word to be believed about anything until such time as their is a legal and public cleansing and that will never happen.
Obviously you are opposed to state rights, extremely opposed to state rights, at a guess this would make you politically schizophrenic (you are aware it was the state that opposed the facility). If you are going to have a national nuclear waste facility obviously the state affected has to approve it and all states affected by transport of the extremely dangerous material will have to approve the transport of that material through their state. One person has very little outcome on the issue, failure to achieve consensus is a nation wide failure at state and federal level. It seems the bullshit is nation wide and chaotic and prevents any reasonable outcome with regards to pretty much anything. So it would seem you are also contributing.
It is not about dummying down anything it is about creating a separate education channel for suitable students so that they can advance their computer learning rather than be held back by the average and below average who are also still entitled to an education. So a computer sciences education stream from primary school onto university.
OK, this research based upon the observation of planets and the number we have visited, wait, what, it is just based upon hypothesis which in turn is based upon hypothesis because we have as yet to reach planets in the habitable zone of other suns so as to confirm or deny hypothesis and convert them into factually scientific theory.
As far as I am concerned the logically reality is every planet that is in a similar envelope of sun age, sun type and distance from the sun is not only inhabitable but inhabited (baring probabilities of total extinction impacts and the time required to recover). As soon as they start visiting other planets either directly or remotely, based upon what they actually discover rather than guess about, I might or might not have to revise my hypothesis.
Programming is complex and requires particular logic thinking which children most certainly are very much not biologically equal. This will drive an even greater intelligence wedge into the class room and this will make life harder to those who already get the rough end of the wedgy.
Perhaps before schools push down the programming line the might considering creating a different education path within the school with a focus on computer education for those students who are suited for it. Failure to make this adjustment will likely lead to classrooms full of failures making life difficult for the other students who cruise through the work.
Well that is down to stupid management practices much like the US's dysfunctional law enforcement. Instead of managing these once at state level, with Federal funding simply going direct to the state to distribute. You have this idiotic broken up model, with management repeated again and again and again and well, hundreds even thousands of times at county level, with those same management costs spent, again and again and again. Want to fix it, start taking more stuff out of the counties hand and pushing it up to state level management. Stop the high cost of distributing Federal funds to each county, thousands upon thousands, with all the monitoring and auditing that is required and repeated yet again by state's with state funding and simply pass federal funds to 50 state departments of education which then manage all public schools in the state. Private schools should not receive funds as, they are private and exclusionary, for them to accept government funds, they should be forced to accept all students within their catchment area and should not be able to exclude any ie take public funds then you are required to be accessible by all of the public, want to be private and exclude students by reason of IQ, race, religion, or bank balance of the parents than be private and fully privately funded.
Yes, we are forced to pirate. A fair and reasoning sense of fairness applies with regard to all of the times we have been lied to about the quality of content and have been sucked into paying for shit. That sense of fairness demands that in response to being repeatedly defrauded as regards to the quality of the content being sold, we endeavour to recover non-refundable capital and also to ensure we are not again cheated in the future, we fully test out content prior to paying for it. If the content is sufficiently worth while as to justify a payment then it is made, less of course all of the times with have been cheated by falsely advertised qualities or prior purchased content. If you do not think that is fair, then I believe that you think it is reasonable to lie to people about the qualities of content in order to cheat them of their money, so screw you;). Now that's being not only honest but fair and just.
Well, mostly functional programming does work technically it is working right between your ears. Consider many programs running simultaneously, all tackling the same problem in different and or the same way, the outcome is the average result of not only the outcomes but the strength of the outcomes. Why useful? It allows the greater investigation of methods and outcomes and it allows for the reality of bumps on the heads and other maladies that damage the hardware the programs run on, which in the digital world means the program ends but in the biological world it allows the many other version of the program to still provide solutions.
Of course what works in the biological world, would suck in the digital world because it would be horribly inefficient, basically tens of thousands of CPUs (ram et al) running variants of the same program with varying degrees of success and then correlating the results to produce a final outcome, even for the simplest of activities. Whilst the parallel computing model expressed in the biological world for greater resilience ie working past faults without failure, it is better in the digital world to just write an accurate program that runs well once, rather than writing thousands of variants programs running simultaneously in parallel, to account for damage in hardware over decades if life, including loss and replication of processing units.
What you are seeing here is the real problem with fracking. It is not one well creating fractures with in the ground is was 22 within a 2 mile radius, plus how many more beyond that. The real is, it is a fantasy to think that those fractures only go in one direction and do create vertical faults. Fracking is not about one well and one point of rock formation fracturing, but thousands of well, even tens of thousands of wells concentrated within a localised region, leaks to the surface in that case are the norm, long term failure is to be expected and same old, same old, privatised profits and socialised losses.
It automatically breaks the law of the foreign country. It is after all a search warrant and if the country has similar laws requiring a search warrant then the foreign part of the company is protected by law of that country. In this case the simple answer is, the warrant is issued, then served locally, then the company forwards the request and the foreign part of the company then refuses citing local law at their location. So locally they adhered to the law in both locations, both nothing happens and stupid judge is left to look like stupid judge ie the local court can not act against the part of the company and it's staff that are operating overseas. They can only issue an order to the company to attempt to obtain that data, the can not force that data to be handed over.
Lie, told by a liar. Netflix generates very little traffic. Netflix customers generate all of the traffic. The end user at the location of their choice, connects to the Netflix site and sends a request for data firstly of content selection system and then of the content itself. Your bullshit is like claiming a supermarket fills roads full of traffic. The traffic is generated by customers driving to the store paying for what they want and returning home. All that's corruptly happening is a toll booth is being placed on the entry to the supermarket, forcing the customer to pay coming and going, the supermarket doesn't pay the customer does. Of course there wont be no toll on supermarkets owned by the toll operator, so basically it is all about anti-competitive behaviour and corrupt corporate practices.
Keeping money is tax havens makes paying bribes in tax havens with secret bank accounts real easy. Politicians collect the bribes by going on luxury holidays and spending up big on 'souvenirs' which they bring back with them to pay for corrupt legislation, in corrupted democracies all over the globe. Many corrupted democracies conspire together to keep tax havens alive, rather than actually doing anything about it. The top dog in corruption is of course the US, which then uses it's economic and military power to push that high level corruption upon the bulk of the globe.
The requirement to provide the encryption key would face a major legal hurdle in the high court as it extends the search and seizure well beyond the person or persons being investigated to every person whose data could be decrypted by that key and thus compromised, well and truly beyond the scope of the investigation. It would be similar to getting a search warrant to search all the mail at a particular post office to in order to access one person email, or getting a search warrant to search every house on a city block when just one person and their property is under investigation, so overreach.
Issuing a search warrant or wire tapping warrant should not be cause to make said search, easy, simple, cheap and convenient, it should just make it legally possible. The difficulties, time effort and expense in exercising is not the provision of the law and logically it should remain difficult, require considerable effort and be expensive to ensure it is not abused and only done when necessary. The easier it is to do, the far more likely it will be abused, the more effort that is required the more carefully and accurately it will be done and the less likely the evidence will be purely circumstantial and readily faked.
As long as they also exclude a bunch of US three letter agencies with a special mention for the NSA, their agents and contractors. Sometimes some sources should be excluded, not to judge anyone, excluding of course the NSA, which of course should now be considered a bunch of security fuckups.
It is pretty clear in "Freedom of expression: everyone has the right to hold and express opinions, and to seek, receive, and impart information on the Internet without arbitrary interference." as in 'without arbitrary interference'. Also there is "avoiding arbitrary or unlawful collection of personal data and surveillance" as in you can not analyse people's data packets in order to treat 'arbitrarily interfere' with different kinds of data being transmitted. Not to forget " Everyone should have the right to access, share, create and distribute information on the Internet." as in 'distribute information'.
So net neutrality is pretty well covered without mention the specific words net neutrality which have already by opposed by PR douche bags and right wing politicians.
Ahh, yes, the wonderful reliability of boom and bust within the building industry. It shouldn't take more than half a brain to realise the only reason they are paying more now, is because so many dropped out of the industry when unemployment was high. Now when employment opportunities are a little better those who left are not returning.
Also the trades are skilled 'LABOUR' trades emphasis on the word labour for a reason, you will not be doing it until you are 65 competitively ever, lucky, seriously lucky to make it too 55, so that is extra money to earn, also weather seriously affects working and payment opportunities. Then there is travel from home to many, varied and distant work places and who pays for that. Then of course there is hours versus full days of work and many trips in one day and there ain't no one paying for your holidays, public or Christmas.
So some, lets be blunt, shit head economist, takes the hourly rate, multiples it by 8 by 5 by 52 and claims that is the salary, talk about fucking ignorance. So don't forget to take out travel time, especially multiple trips during the day. The time sitting on your arse waiting for work to become available. Bad weather when you can not work. Times you sit idle when parts don't turn up. Times you cant work when your tools break or you vehicle breaks. All of those issues count and guess what, the customer has to pay for them too, they are built into the hourly rate but that doesn't mean the tradesman gets the annual optimum benefit of it. Then there are all those right wing fuck heads who uniformly attempt to cheat and not pay tradesmen with one lie after another and yes most of those shitty customers who wont pay are right wingers, greedy bastards. Honest customers also have to pay for them, it all drives up the hourly rate.
So yeah, there are plenty of real reasons why tradies become scarce at times and why right whingers complain a demand government action to drive down wages, plus it's a damn site easier for those right whingers to cheat immigrant labour.
Nope, the FCC was under the control of management that understood Net Neutrality. Uncle Tom Obama simply replaced that management with new political appointees with instructions to follow the orders of the incumbents, hence the change. Once and for all the is no such thing as the fast lane, that is a lie. You pay for bandwidth you either get that bandwidth or not. So they lie to you, sell you bandwidth and then do not provide it, now they want to further legalise the lie, sell you bandwidth, then not only specifically not provide that bandwidth but chuck you in the strangleband lane, where you traffic is slowed and slowed and slowed and slowed until they can extort extra payments from you. Current FCC management is quite simply supporting corrupt practices to allow the generation of extra profit based upon lies.
Meh, not to worry, as soon as those dopey cops realise they were spying on themselves more than anyone else and excuses about it not being turned on wont work, they'll drop the idea, especially as most of their criminal activities do take place in public spaces.
The first question that needs to be asked is was it a corporate back door or a government back door. A lot of governments always seem to be rather conveniently forgetful when it comes to how profitable insider trading is and how corporate fiscal espionage readily facilitates it. This allowing profits in the billions and if you don't think that it is one of the biggest drivers of government contracted to private corporations espionage than you are truly gullible and foolish, seriously billions of dollars of profits are up for grabs based upon private access to fiscal data for publicly traded companies, prior to that information being available to the public, especially upon a global scale.
Far more logically. Let's ask the question, what if you could grow guns on trees, surely they would not try to regulate plants, er, yeah right. So regulating weapons, how about a little question and answers time from the South Australian Police Force http://www.police.sa.gov.au/sa.... They seem to have no problem regulating all sorts of weapons, even ones that do grow on trees.
