More specifically junk patents help the rich screw the poor. The 99% pay the cost of those patents while the 1% rake in the profits and absolutely nothing to do with innovation just straight up greed. The current administration is quite comfortable with greed. That any government can look at these patents in question and not see the scammy pieces of shit they are is as corrupt as the regulations they created to give the force.
They will fix this by going on a buying spree, using the shares as junk bonds to buy companies that actually make money. When it all washes out the only real losers will be the pension funds whose executives got paid tax haven purchasing commissions.
That's where the franchise model comes in. Many click and mortar locations to provide the service and support that most residential users prefer, when it breaks you fix it and I pay you. This can extend to remote service and repair but not really necessary in the residential Linux market (all distributions including Android).
So a core distribution to demostrate expertise and provide a marketing tool and the service and support of all distribution and even 'shock, horror' the borg OS variants.
Start slow and expand globally, as a distributed franchise, you don't want to bleed your franchisees dry, you want to minimise their administrative, recruiting, accounting, advertising costs and ensure quality of service and maintenance of reputation. Management of the franchise would be done via the franchise members with two levels, main commercial and local residential. Limit one franchise per business entity.
That's is just so wrong. Linux is about service and support, that's what you sell and promote.
The distribution is not a product unto itself, it is a promotional tool. Here is our distribution, here is it qualities and, those qualities are reflected in the service and support we provide.
I always thought the best model was a distributed franchise, more to do with ensuring quality of service provided and to minimise business administrative costs and marketing. The distribution could also be built across the franchise.
The real question here is when it comes to monitoring. Are they monitoring all face book posts in this manner, or just incoming tourists face book posts. Is posting and receiving treated in the same manner.
So is 'I am going to destroy America, starting with LA', the same as I heard you were going to 'Destroy America, starting with LA'. Will all tourists get arrested and molested or is just certain nationalities.
These are some important questions as it sounds like a lot of fun could be had here. Basically in the current climate if you're silly enough to go on holidays to the US as a 'ohh, evil' foreigner you deserve pretty much anything you get stuck with. Arrested, groped, gear confiscated indefinitely, barred from ever returning (not that you'll ever likely want to).
Just to be clear to the Department of Homeland in-Security I have no intention of ever travelling to the US but make no mistake I have no qualms about pranking them.
It's not the labour it's the cushy contractor agreements and the screwed right down very cheapest possible sub-contractor agreements.
Watch the contractor wander off with millions of profits and the sub-contractor trying to get the job done for less that what it costs to do by charging extras, using cheap labour and taking short cuts all over the place.
Meanwhile of course the contractor will be endeavouring to invent all sorts of crazy reasons why the job suddenly costs twist a much as originally estimated, and discussing with a few political appointees over a lunch in the Bahamas (makes it easier to deposit the 'er purchasing commissions).
Now the contractors are pretty much charging ten times what they a screwing the sub-contractor for (whom the contractor will blame when anything goes wrong).
Best to avoid the technical aspect all together. Stick with the truth, they are guilty until proven innocent laws with very recrimination for false accusation.
So they think they have indentified some pirate by name only use automated equipment, they don't give a crap if it's faulty because there's very little punishment for false accusation.
Your name matches, they automatically kick you off the internet, get your electronics confiscated and, have you arrested. Now you have to spend the next three or so months proving your innocence (it could take far longer as they bog down courts with false accusations, they are not paying so they don't give a crap). So you either rebuy everything after you get out of jail on bail or go without.
After all this is over and you prove your innocent, well, it's tough luck sucker, till the screw you again (far more likely to occur as you have been accused once and are already suspicious). When they say, naw, it won't happen, just remind them the MPAA/RIAA wont be paying for it the tax payer foots the bill and let them think how that will pan out.
So they are dropping a very, very, large non-stealthy bomb from a stealthy bomber, hmm, I can't see a problem with that, ohh wait. Sounds fine for a bunch of pretend terrorist hiding in caves without anti-aircraft missile systems but for anything else. I'm sure the US military knows best and this is not about just dumping more money in GE's pocket until MOP v3 the stealthy version, stealthy of course means adding a billion dollars or so to the price ticket.
Not to forget very big bomb, dropped from very high altitude to achieve the required speed for penetration, well, you don't have to destroy it you just have to make it miss.
The reality is companies should start running networks in parallel. There is not reason that the network that handles email and web browsing should in any way be connected to the internal network. Any data transferred from one network to the other should only be done manually at the computer admin desk, after the data has been scanned and confirmed suitable to leave or be added. It is the simplest way to secure the system and the most reliable. Whilst it might cost a bit more, just one security failure could end up paying for the additional cost for many years.
All pretty pointless iProducts are not the top iSpoiled iBrat gear. Selfishness and ego are the drivers in that market, pose factor driven by marketing are the drivers and everything else including hardware inferiority, unchanged software, lock in and the highest profit margins in the industry mean nothing to them,
That the workers are treated like crap, won't turn them off at all, in fact it'll turn them on.
The flip slide of the spoilt brat market is they tend to be late comers, everyone else treats their choice and them as wildly uncool regardless of peer pressure tactics. Of course once the product loses it's ego fad status they disappear like a herd of sheep scattered by a wolf.
Rather than boycott just point out how they have been sucked in to paying Apple's inflated margins by Apples marketing treated them like idiot sheep, the hardware lack of competitiveness, the dated software and of course mindless lock in.
Dip stick. If I want I can sell my steam account. You can readily transfer steam from one computer to another, sell the username and password do the confirmation email and your done, the then new users changes the confirmation password.
So piss off if you think you have the right to own something after you have sold it.
To be fair the other people who like them, are the ones that stress out at exams and fail due to mind block (fear of failure leads to failure) and of course the communicators, those that like to have meetings, do presentations and often do more than their fair share of work.
There are a few slack and idlers but they are of course the narcissists and psychopaths, these genetically deficient individuals have to go to school as well, otherwise how would school bullies graduate to be law enforcement (versus police officers, those the police the peace), investment bankers (enough said) and Republican politicians (and good mix of Democrats in there as well), basically if there is a profit to be made by exploiting others they'll be there.
So will they include a psychological developmental assessment over time so that perhaps by high school of the more destructive individuals can be weeded out to specialist institutions. I'm sure Ballmer would have appreciated that and personally I would have preferred avoid that particular unnecessary aggravation, as they tended to group together.
Being complex is the benefit to company selling the hardware and providing online tools to simplify the task. It keeps those customers coming back and logged in.
It is all about marketing, people will need a firewall/router/modem adding in those other bits doesn't really add much cost but it doesn't give them something to sell "Your Social Network", "Your Server", "Your Control", "Your Media Network". They have to have something to sell if they want to pry end users away from existing services.
You can always provide a link to Facebook but of course block vice versa. It's all part of the IPv6 revolution and creating the real cloud not the pretend one. It will help drive a more private and secure P2P network, where you only share with people who you know.
Actually tests are pretty much uniform measures of knowledge gained. Of course it will significantly bias grades to those who are good at tests. I was one of those study the night before after bludging through the whole term to pass to get a higher grade start studying two nights before the exam. Write down answers for example questions and done. Essay and projects are just so annoying, especially when their original intent was as a learning tool rather than a grading tool. I gather from Gates funding preferences he was also good at exams and lousy at group projects.
Why not give students a choice projects or exams and see who has to repeat at the end of the year.
As for trusting any News Corp company with children's privacy, WTF?
I have already seen those and no script marked then as untrusted including the advertisers they use, and blocked their cookies. Cato of course is a right wing stink tank not a journalism site and NLPC,well, you can practically feel the oil oozing from that site. Of course there are tens of thousands of choices so why not try http://www.aljazeera.com/ or http://rt.com/.
Here's an idea to put paid to that. Golden Shower, anti satellite and launch system.
Take a liquid fueled single stage rocket (oxygen hydrogen), fore and aft fuel tanks and instead of making the tanks of insulated metal, make them from segmented titanium wire reinforced plastic. Incorporate minimum guidance, basically gyroscopic stabilisation and remote control, allow say 10% excess fuel load.
When the rockets reach the required speed and height, rotate to perpendicular, cut of the motors and use a high speed pump and return valve to mix the remaining fuel in the two tanks and 'Kaboom'.
Quite simply piss on American space superiority by denying everyone access to space. Now there are far more countries capable of doing this than can create nuclear weapons. About 10 of these should be enough to shut down access to space for a decade minimum.
A lot of American military superiority is based upon satellite technology, want to see how quickly that can disappear keep going down the stupid, 'moon as the 51st US state' path.
This is the real question. Why don't the pigopolists keep demanding anti-competitive trade practices, ohh, that's right they are insatiably greedy psychopaths who want to continue to sexually exploit young hopefuls.
Can't have future performance artists going direct to the public, what will happen to the casting couch, how BJs in Limo's, how about blackmailing future stars with embarrassing photos of sexual extremism.
If you don't think it all boils down to the most primitive pathetic drives of bloated ego's and insatiable greed, you have no idea of the mental degenerative state that really defines who these people are and why they are willing to corrupt and destroy democracy and, why they are content to destroy peoples lives.
Flip side of this bullshit, I as an individual demand that legislation be implemented that allows me to permanently 'BLOCK' search results from specific companies and that all search engines incorporate this technology. Want to take possession of my, that's right, 'MY', first page of results, then 'FUCK YOU', don't appear at all.
Innovation in social networks will involve the shifting from company held servers to a distrusted social network via IPv6 and router/modem/firewall/web server/mail server/file server in the residential environment
The social network company providing the links between like minded people, backups and redundant services for blackouts.
So greater personal control and privacy, with access to your files from your hardware and shared access that you specifically have control over.
As Facebook aren't into hardware or software they are screwed. This is a battle between Google, Apple and M$. Then new distributed social network portal who gain the lead first.
Perhaps you don't realise that clicks count when it comes to advertising dollars on the internet and as I enjoy using stumbleupon I want to ensure that News Corp is not financially enabled by my choice.
As for news choices, give it a rest News Corp troll, http://www.allyoucanread.com/, 22,800 online magazines and newspapers from all over the world. I think I can safely skip News Corp shit without missing anything;D.
As for regulars I am quite content with http://www.bbc.co.uk/ and http://www.abc.net.au/. How much time do you think I have to take up news, especially when I don't buy into that "you will die if you don't read and watch" bullshit.
Gees numb nuts, I don't have to read those crappy News Corps rags everyday, or watch those crappy Fox not-News channels everyday, there are a whole range of web sites that do it for more and show the highlights 'er' lowlights. You know, I don't have to hit my head with a hammer to know it will feel good when I stop, I don't have to walk with my shows full of rocks to know it will feel better when I stop, I don't have to starve for days to know it will feel good when I eat, I don't have to eat chemically laden artificial junk food to know I well feel better when I eat fresh organic and of course my mind doesn't have to wade through cruft http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=cruft day in day out to know I will be far more intellectually satisfied when I obtain my news from better sources.
The crazy idea that I need to read News Corp rags and watch Fox not-News everyday just to appreciate how bad they really are, seriously WTF. I have only got so may free hours in the day for news so I simply go to better sources , now that's common sense. As for the News Corp and Fox not-news lowlights, I wag my head in disbelief and thank people for doing the hard yards of wading through that cruft for me.
When it is part of the News Corp Empire, why bother, with so much advertising as news, blatant truth censorship and well all in all a PR=B$ (lies for profit). The Fox not-News network, why even bother to debate, they will have no qualms about spreading the biggest lies imaginable, basically a network whose motto is your pay it and they will spray it, fertiliser that is.
Let's not get to sucked in by the lies. Don't forget burning fossil fuels does not just produce carbon dioxide but also carbon monoxide, Nitrogen dioxide, Sulphur dioxide, Benzene and, Formaldehyde, Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon.
So comparing the exhalation of people to a car exhaust, well perhaps if those who choose to do so would do us all of the favour of sucking on a car exhaust for a while, likely the pollution problem will be solved more rapidly.
In this case he was not just jailed for having naughty knowledge, he was also jailed for being of a suspect religion, having a questionable ancestry and being a little mentally disturbed.
In the US this would of course have put him in extended detention without trial and subject to enhanced interrogation techniques. With a military tribunal once he is willing to confess to be a leader of al-Qaeda, intending to destroy a major city, a close friend of Julian Assange, a member of 'Anonymous' and being paid by the Iranian government.
So while reasonable grounds to recommend psychiatric assessment and possible treatment hardly grounds to stick him in prison and make, a bad situation worse.
Lets try to be a little more accurate shall we. Of the 4,073 people surveyed between December 6th and December 23rd, 87% of whom were from the US (with no other details on how respondents were obtained), perhaps voluntary on a website which Apple was notified about and there is not truth to the rumour that way more that half of the respondents came from the same IP address range.
Ohh all so boring, every single Android story is a magnet for Apple marketdroid trolls, not most or politely some but every single one.
Getting a poll from Apple users sucked in by Apple marketing is like asking brain dead zombies do they like chomping on other people's brains. Once they are sucked in by the marketing they just won't admit they made a bad choice and paid twice as much as they needed too.
I thought the M$ professional trolls were bad, they have nothing on the wormy apple variety.
Answer this question for a real slap from reality versus Apple marketdroid delusions. How many people own a iPad as their only computer? Now, how people own a computer and don't own an iPad? So computer sales still logically must hugely outnumber tablet sales.
