There is only one really sound reason to not use you real name online. Idiots all over the internet and more importantly psychopaths. 1% of the general population, 15% of the prison population and 50% of violent crimes. Use you real name and one of those fuckwits is very likely to fixate on you. So forum where I used my name, within a month, some fuckwit psychopath is rigging me and sending me a goodbye message via a machine, not that I give a fuck but it's just boringly annoying.
The reason why anonymity is required on the internet because some people will do stupid things for what ever triggered them on the internet and take that shit to the streets. You know the type, the gutless fuckwit bullies from high school, they never change and they often become shite law enforcers.
Actually I am interested in a more complex model. How will subsurface water move as a result of planetary flexure due to orbital mechanics, specifically with regards to fractured earth, well the millions of fracking wells turning large chunks of the earth into a weird flexural sponges. As the orbital mechanics of earth, sun and moon have set planetary flexural motion, how rapidly will it pump that below surface extremely contaminated water, well, where ever it will pump it.
That water down there will pick up all sorts of heavy metals and radioactive elements and all those fracture sites will fail over the centuries. So couple of decades of production, with a couple of centuries of those well sites failing and the problem getting worse and worse and worse and then a few millennia for it all to settle down again (with huge increases in early cancer in the population in those regions).
Fire path modelling is pretty simple compared to that and of course fires are easy to put out, just be willing to spend the money on firemen, ready to standby and put out the fire. Fracking, too late, fucked already and nothing can be done except, leave the affected regions and it will spread well beyond the fracking zones, which have become giant slow motion pumps. Fracked earth giant sponges, pulling in and pushing out water as the flex under gravitational loads, it will be interesting.
You sound like a dumb carpenter who bought all light tools because they were easier to carry. Small hammers, tiny saws, oh wait, kind of stupid huh. How much time do you spend carrying it around versus how much time do you spend using it versus how much it slows you down when you are trying to use.
M$ you get the review you pay for, surprise, surprise, surprise. M$ is left with nothing but it's desktop monopoly and it is killing that as we speak, due to insatiable greed, and that greed being pretty darned arrogantly stupid.
They watched the phone business die as a result of people being pissed off with Windows 10 privacy invasions and M$ demand that they be able to install what ever the fuck software they want on your computer when ever the fuck they wanted to and crash you machine to reboot to force it.
For portable computing I would not touch an M$ box, they are WOFTAM now, waste for fucking time and money. I only use M$ for fucking gaming, seriously, just for computer games and internet fun stuff, beyond that they are simply an unreliable crap supplier that can not be trusted. How much trust do you need to a toy operating system to play computer games and browse the web.
That's not even the worst bit, once you get known for a bigger account, well, all they need is you and they have the username and password. Crypto is rapidly becoming the wild wild west, neck deep in crime and becoming quite dangerous. Like who did this idiot steal 5 million dollars from, can they even claim it back from the police because dirty money. The safest place for this idiot is probably prison but their chances of survival after that pretty slim.
If we had that level of technology, it would make more sense to https://www.youtube.com/watch?... (so sad to see short person syndrome kill star trek, KK what a twit), probably without the planet blowing up laser of course. Once you can start moving around small moons, kind of makes more sense to circumnavigate the galaxy, rather than just change orbit.
Lets face it by far the most interesting thing is this galaxy is watching a primitive race go from camp fires to colonising other worlds around other stars. Parking your artificial moon over that (probably have to share space, can't have thousands of moons overhead, kind of look pretty suss), well, think of the all the stories unfolding before your eyes, whilst you live in boringly safe automated comfort, of course quantum remote measurement at a distance and you could actually feel the emotional chaos (probably be a bit addictive and cause real psychological harm, no unlicensed monitoring, let alone driving). Why, bliss, shared wonder and joy, oddly enough an underlying life mechanic because it propagates out, it scales from the smallest expression of life to the greatest and beyond.
Terra forming, transplanting our ecosystem to other worlds because we owe them, kind of difficult for that world but life is replacing life and we owe who we evolved with. It would be really jack to just leave them behind.
I never did understand why the fuck all of a sudden Mozilla demanded stupid shit, like where the tabs must be, seriously who ever are the dickbrains they forced that GFYs.
So message to Mozilla don't rebrand, just stop being dick brains and ask for feedback before changing things. Doing it after, is really arrogant, so fucking American, barely doing after you implement changes so much worse, so fucking Texan (American exceptionalism on peyote, totally delusional).
WaterFox == Firefox rebranded and without the change for change's sake. How likely am I to switch back to Firefox, well, honestly make Firefox more like Waterfox and I will;D. Forks what FOSS is all about (tabs below the address bar out of the box or bugger off).
Greater automation, more automated banks, greater competition, reduced profits. Automation feeds competition. Any company with sufficient deposits is probably better off being an automated bank than using one.
As for mass unemployment in the financial sector, part of me is a little sad for their loss, a lot of me is pretty content that a lot of those greed first asshats are losing their worthless job.
They did it the really hard way. All they had to do, believe it or not, was give one set of robot hands whiskers. Straight up whiskers with sensors to monitor feedback from the whiskers. They are pretty neat, not only will you generate feedback prior to contact and thus refine contact methods but they also provide inertial feedback and even resistance feed back for motion through the air and of course position relative to gravity.
Production unit would probably benefit from whiskers, just much fewer of them required.
The mass market no longer buy PCs. They are content consumers they buy Apple and Android. They use smart TVs, smart phones, smart tablets because they are dumb and just want their computer to do simple things for them. The power PC user will absolutely tell M$ to go fuck itself, what is that Hitler one, on yeah with a pineapple pointy end first.
So M$ is basically driving down a one way street with a brick wall at the end and accelerating. They watched their mobile phone crap die because people hated what they were doing and thumb in bum, mind in neutral, they just keep going straight down that path. They simply can not be told and are not listening to what a pack of cunts they truly are.
So now the shift will occur, obviously Android is killing it on content consumption devices and Apple is doing is doing better in spite of themselves with selling you privacy, rather than selling your privacy. SteamOS (steam was kind of dopey no distributing FOSS on steam to promote steamOS) and Linux winning everywhere except the desktop. Playstation of course well they're a bit slow and are sort of going nowhere.
Yeah everyone knows, Telsa has been shorted to hell but all those shorts are like ticking time bombs because Tesla Roadster. Also the company looking to buy Tesla on the cheap seems to have given up and is instead making their own electric vehicles.
Not that everything is rosy for Tesla, 2019 looks to be the year of electrics, a lot of models coming out across a wide range of manufacturers. Likely 2020 should be the last year you buy a infernal combustion engined vehicle because after that you will be burning money on resale.
The infinite greed fossil fuellers, look pretty much fucked. Should have made moves earlier but greed driven stupidity demanded the psychopath solution, bullshit, failure and golden parachutes all whilst sucking out the biggest bonuses possible.
Too easy to regulate them, make it more expensive to be privacy invasive dick brains than it is worth.
So want to be real harsh, all companies, 'ALL COMPANIES', must forward details of the information they store about individuals to the individuals concerned and if the individual demands they delete the information, the company must delete the data. Note this is just data stored, not stories about individuals, just databases and obviously data required for taxation purposes must be kept. There also needs to be a distinction between information they hold privately and information they hold publicly (think psychological manipulation databases and public information databases).
The individual should have the right to decide whether they will allow a company to keep, manipulate, distribute private information about the individual. Tie this into random audits with custodial sentences and things should settle down.
Bots are really kind of arbitrary, people tend to scatter when they comments don't agree with their preconceived ideas. Like all the typical ways the corporate Democrat identitarian bullshit fails, people just leave. The googlites are learning that lesson the fuck cunts, trying to control people, all they do is wander off else where.
As for fake news, all to fucking easy. Simply regulate the word 'NEWS', you use that word and tell porky pies and you'll earn yourself a custodial sentence, done and finished. Want to make up news stories, no problem, do not use the word 'NEWS' anywhere. Another step foward, regulate journalists, make it a profession, 'Public Investigators' (there is more to that but still not the time).
I seriously do use CDs or DVDs as coasters, why not. Currently resting by alkalised hot cocoa http://www.alkalizedcocoa.com/ (reduced sugar and well you are drinking the actual ground bean, so nourishing) on a SUSE Professional 8.2 DVD not out of hostility but memories. CDs and DVDs make great coasters, washable, some are quite attractive, would likely drive the fault correction on a drive insane if you tried to read it though.
Things just get weird when you try to take free floating energy out of the system. No particle to contain the energy, there is no energy. It is all discrete particle flows and the energy contained within those particles, both the inherent energy of the particle and the transient energy as it transfers from particle to particle, balancing out. The infinitely small particles of quantum space (relative to normal space) and infinite large particles as the universe itself could be considered an individual particle (relative to the multiverse).
Nope sorry. You are being isolated from the rest of human society, in what should be an educational facility, a reform school for adults (seriously, fail and you do not get out). That means those outside should not have to deal with you in any way at all, not personally and not via the internet. The law should be, no prisoner is allowed to initiate communications with the outside world and can only receive communications from the outside world.
They all should have the exact same access to content, no one gets extra and all the content, movies, games, tv should be required to promote rehabilitation, so an emphasis on socially corrective games and a ban on all aggressive games, same for all other content.
They are free to be reducated and not free to entertain themselves.
Rehabilitation should also include the appropriate pharmaceuticals where required. Keeping in mind prison are required by law to be safe for correctional services officers and prisoners alike. Clearly no enough is done to prosecute correctional services when they fail to secure their prison and keep them safe. Any crime committed in prison is a major fuck up, they should be zero crime facilities.
I had a high performance laptop once, heavy but still convenient, only real problem, that high performance with poor cooling, basically resulted in the laptop cooking itself to death, outside of warranty of course. Really short working life, basically it will survive the warranty period running under full load but not much longer than that.
High performance, demands quality cooling. Portability, means substantially reduced performance if you want durability.
Don't worry, death of net neutrality to you rescue, your ISP will choose which streaming service for you. One service, runs worse that a broken modem from the 70s for some strange reason and the other service in partnership with the ISP runs perfectly, damn expensive though but you get what you pay for sucker. In this a case they paid for corrupt politicians and now they will make you pay, not just for the service but all the costs of the necessary bribes to ensure they could shut down competition, well actually slow them to a crawl and inflate profit margins.
Time limits on tech support make it a horrible job, gives you zero time to turn the complainant into a friend and convince them you are on their side. Idiot accountants see this as a waste, smart business people, see it as a protection of an investment, the investment you made turning that stranger into a customer. The bean counters see it purely as a cost and hence screw them, they are not buying, they are simply costing money. The smart business person instead see that support as an investment into future sales, sure they had a problem, but convince them the company is actually concerned about the problem and they will come back to buy in the future.
This all stems from psychopaths in business, this quarters return and who cares what the customer does in a years time ie goes to the competitor whilst you spend millions on advertising trying to get them back. Problem is put that complex relationship in a spreadsheet, one that requires an experienced knowledgeable business person to understand all the relationships and practices involved, you simply can not explain it to a fool with a spreadsheet. They'll just hunt the bonus with the numbers saved on support and ignore the resulting losses and then bonus loss, having to spend a fortune on advertising trying to get them back, pinching pennies to spend pounds.
What happens to this fellow really depends on whether or not he is involved in shorting Tesla stock and thus is secretly trying to manipulate the stock price to favour his investment. So doxing this individual, does not really affect them beyond the likely possibility of triggering an SEC investigation, which is likely the reason for cancelling those evidenciary accounts. You have to be really careful fucking with a companies value, if you generate revenue from it, especially bound to investment that would increase or decrease based upon those attacks, it exposes you to high risk of prosecution by the SEC. Considering the values this guy was screwing with (billions of dollars), I would not be surprised if he has not already lawyered up and is deleting incriminating data just as fast as he can and has good reason to do so.
Sure you can critique companies which will affect their value but make sure you are not making money from it and especially make sure you are not doing it to favour your investments ie short a stock and then attack it on purpose to support that short.
I got caught up in the idea of "learning a language for free", think about that for a moment. Learning for free, so basically as far as M$ is concerned my time is free, my effort is free, my worth is zero. This stuff is getting annoying, corporations thinking your time, your work, your efforts are worth nothing and to be exploited for free.
I don't learn for free, it takes real time and real effort. A really funny thing when you think about it, "we ran the first Q# coding contest and the response was tremendous. More than 650 participants from all over the world joined the contest", so with 131,000 employees https://news.microsoft.com/fac... only 650 could be fucked entering the competition, fuck M$'s own staff hate it.
Do you not know, being a friend is a two way street. the USA is friend to no one and as publicly stated the US governments demands that it must dominate the entire globe in every sphere of human activity, starting off with the military industrial complex and nuclear weapons targeted at every single other country on the globe
From the rest of the planet's viewpoint it's not fuck Russia, it's fuck the war warmongering USA. Yeah, you guys are the enemies of peace on this planet, not Russia and not China, USA number one killers on the planet no one else even close, please fucking abandon us, leave us the fuck alone, start eating yourselves alive. This would be the average viewpoint of the rest of the planet.
My mind baulks at how anyone can control anything across an true air gapped network. Unless the people controlling it are fucking morons and left wireless gear in there. Also doesn't matter what the fuck the attack, air gapped is meant to be gapped, nothing goes onto it that hasn't been scanned, you only plug in clean computer without wireless anything, all applications checked, all data checked. Work hard enough to create a proper airgapped network nothing gets on, the only way something gets on is down to people, incompetence, bribe and at budget time 'FALSE FLAG'. Don't thing they would do it on purpose, nothing to do with blaming Russians but in the US they are now the favourites and every-fucking-thing to do with contractors wanting multi-million dollar contracts to secure networks. Hundreds of millions of dollars in contracts, would they fuck up networks on purpose to get paid millions to secure them, hmm, let me think, yes abso-fucking-lutely.
All tradesman blame shit tools for shit work and most of the time it is fair and reasonable. Buy cheap shit tools and you will do a shit job, simply fact of life. In this case, it is a writing tool, in a manner of speaking, it is the conscious choice to buy one pen, that can only use one ink and tying yourself to the corporation that controls the pen and ink, for you entire life. They drop the pen or the ink and you are well, entirely fucked, well and truly fucked.
Tying yourself to M$ with a solid track record of doing stuff, marketing the crap out if, doesn't sell well, meh drop it and fuck every fool who bought into it. M$ are a shitty horribly unreliable supplier who routinely fuck over their customers, using their market dominance. Any time you can escape them fucking escape them you will be far better off because they are a shite supplier, proven track record of being unreliable.
Have a choice, use the tools you can control versus the tools some corporation controls and will do crappy things with it because they believe it makes them more money and their attitude to customers fuck em, fuck em hard and fuck em often.
A cashless society will not be managed by government but by corporations. The government will not provide cards to use, corporations will and those corporations will charge a corporate tax on all transactions and it will grant corporations the ability to declare you, a citizen, a non-economic citizen by denying you access to their corporate economic citizen card.
A capitalist society with no cash, is a slave society, you no longer buy anything, you ask a private for profit corporations for 'permission' to have that item. No matter you claimed bank account, they can simply shut it down for any reason and deny you access to funds, rendering you instantly bankrupt, until you sue them, oh wait, you can not make a call (notification to your supplier you can no longer pay for services), you can not get transport, fuel your vehicle, buy anything, go home all services disconnected because you can no longer pay the bill. Cashless society == Corporate slave society. Cash in your pocket in a capitalist society and you are free, a permission slip in you pocket that can be rejected at any time and for any reason, means you are a slave to who ever controls that permission slip, just like a slave, refuse them and they deny you the means of existence.
The problem is, you either get in your car, drive to the shop, park it in the forest destroying car park, go to the store, wait for service, get service, chat for some time, but the product, carry it back to your car and drive your whole car (the delivery packaging) with one fucking package and one person, back home. That will never economically or environmentally compete with ordering online, package goes from warehouse, to delivery vehicle with many, many other packages and only makes a one way journey, a route with deliveries on route and the final delivery should return closer to the warehouse for efficiency. Delivery vans, based upon cyclic use et al and a flat floor, slow speed and constant acceleration and deceleration, plus a large flat roof, make for excellent electric vehicle design and that solar panel does count once it pays for itself, it still generates revenue, direct tax free revenue.
Direct deliveries from logistic centres is far more efficient ie from factory (no outgoing warehousing required), to logistic centre (for picking and packing), to the consumer. So you put retail workers out of work but the whole retail centre, the land used, the energy used, the building, also are not required, that land could be a park with trees (but of course less reality, the city itself does not need to grow as much to provide the infrastructure space for that retail space. The retail chain style simply can not economically nor environmentally compete with the logistic chain style. You just need more logistics companies to jump into retail and provide competition and shrink Amazon down to a manageable for the rest of society scale. Unkowledgeable women writing fantasy rubbish is utterly pointless. The kind of stupid stuff like "However, people arenâ(TM)t offsetting the traffic to shopping malls and grocery stores by buying online" is a stupid as fuck, so they buy that product online and go to the mall to what not buy that product, what the fuck are they doing in the mall if the already bought that product, probably buying something fucking else, or for a meal or the cinema. Nobody does both, it's fucking nuts, you do not buy online and they go to a mall to not buy the product, you do one or the other for that product.

Pfft, it was all a pump and dump. Create the illusion of economic sector dominance, do the IPO, sell and run before it all explodes.
Vehicle manufacturers who dominate the vehicle leasing market, will similarly dominate the automated vehicle market, for much the same reason.
Greater automation, more automated banks, greater competition, reduced profits. Automation feeds competition. Any company with sufficient deposits is probably better off being an automated bank than using one.
As for mass unemployment in the financial sector, part of me is a little sad for their loss, a lot of me is pretty content that a lot of those greed first asshats are losing their worthless job.

What happens to this fellow really depends on whether or not he is involved in shorting Tesla stock and thus is secretly trying to manipulate the stock price to favour his investment. So doxing this individual, does not really affect them beyond the likely possibility of triggering an SEC investigation, which is likely the reason for cancelling those evidenciary accounts. You have to be really careful fucking with a companies value, if you generate revenue from it, especially bound to investment that would increase or decrease based upon those attacks, it exposes you to high risk of prosecution by the SEC. Considering the values this guy was screwing with (billions of dollars), I would not be surprised if he has not already lawyered up and is deleting incriminating data just as fast as he can and has good reason to do so.
Sure you can critique companies which will affect their value but make sure you are not making money from it and especially make sure you are not doing it to favour your investments ie short a stock and then attack it on purpose to support that short.
I got caught up in the idea of "learning a language for free", think about that for a moment. Learning for free, so basically as far as M$ is concerned my time is free, my effort is free, my worth is zero. This stuff is getting annoying, corporations thinking your time, your work, your efforts are worth nothing and to be exploited for free.
I don't learn for free, it takes real time and real effort. A really funny thing when you think about it, "we ran the first Q# coding contest and the response was tremendous. More than 650 participants from all over the world joined the contest", so with 131,000 employees https://news.microsoft.com/fac... only 650 could be fucked entering the competition, fuck M$'s own staff hate it.
Do you not know, being a friend is a two way street. the USA is friend to no one and as publicly stated the US governments demands that it must dominate the entire globe in every sphere of human activity, starting off with the military industrial complex and nuclear weapons targeted at every single other country on the globe
From the rest of the planet's viewpoint it's not fuck Russia, it's fuck the war warmongering USA. Yeah, you guys are the enemies of peace on this planet, not Russia and not China, USA number one killers on the planet no one else even close, please fucking abandon us, leave us the fuck alone, start eating yourselves alive. This would be the average viewpoint of the rest of the planet.
My mind baulks at how anyone can control anything across an true air gapped network. Unless the people controlling it are fucking morons and left wireless gear in there. Also doesn't matter what the fuck the attack, air gapped is meant to be gapped, nothing goes onto it that hasn't been scanned, you only plug in clean computer without wireless anything, all applications checked, all data checked. Work hard enough to create a proper airgapped network nothing gets on, the only way something gets on is down to people, incompetence, bribe and at budget time 'FALSE FLAG'. Don't thing they would do it on purpose, nothing to do with blaming Russians but in the US they are now the favourites and every-fucking-thing to do with contractors wanting multi-million dollar contracts to secure networks. Hundreds of millions of dollars in contracts, would they fuck up networks on purpose to get paid millions to secure them, hmm, let me think, yes abso-fucking-lutely.
All tradesman blame shit tools for shit work and most of the time it is fair and reasonable. Buy cheap shit tools and you will do a shit job, simply fact of life. In this case, it is a writing tool, in a manner of speaking, it is the conscious choice to buy one pen, that can only use one ink and tying yourself to the corporation that controls the pen and ink, for you entire life. They drop the pen or the ink and you are well, entirely fucked, well and truly fucked.
Tying yourself to M$ with a solid track record of doing stuff, marketing the crap out if, doesn't sell well, meh drop it and fuck every fool who bought into it. M$ are a shitty horribly unreliable supplier who routinely fuck over their customers, using their market dominance. Any time you can escape them fucking escape them you will be far better off because they are a shite supplier, proven track record of being unreliable.
Have a choice, use the tools you can control versus the tools some corporation controls and will do crappy things with it because they believe it makes them more money and their attitude to customers fuck em, fuck em hard and fuck em often.
A cashless society will not be managed by government but by corporations. The government will not provide cards to use, corporations will and those corporations will charge a corporate tax on all transactions and it will grant corporations the ability to declare you, a citizen, a non-economic citizen by denying you access to their corporate economic citizen card.
A capitalist society with no cash, is a slave society, you no longer buy anything, you ask a private for profit corporations for 'permission' to have that item. No matter you claimed bank account, they can simply shut it down for any reason and deny you access to funds, rendering you instantly bankrupt, until you sue them, oh wait, you can not make a call (notification to your supplier you can no longer pay for services), you can not get transport, fuel your vehicle, buy anything, go home all services disconnected because you can no longer pay the bill. Cashless society == Corporate slave society. Cash in your pocket in a capitalist society and you are free, a permission slip in you pocket that can be rejected at any time and for any reason, means you are a slave to who ever controls that permission slip, just like a slave, refuse them and they deny you the means of existence.
The problem is, you either get in your car, drive to the shop, park it in the forest destroying car park, go to the store, wait for service, get service, chat for some time, but the product, carry it back to your car and drive your whole car (the delivery packaging) with one fucking package and one person, back home. That will never economically or environmentally compete with ordering online, package goes from warehouse, to delivery vehicle with many, many other packages and only makes a one way journey, a route with deliveries on route and the final delivery should return closer to the warehouse for efficiency. Delivery vans, based upon cyclic use et al and a flat floor, slow speed and constant acceleration and deceleration, plus a large flat roof, make for excellent electric vehicle design and that solar panel does count once it pays for itself, it still generates revenue, direct tax free revenue.
Direct deliveries from logistic centres is far more efficient ie from factory (no outgoing warehousing required), to logistic centre (for picking and packing), to the consumer. So you put retail workers out of work but the whole retail centre, the land used, the energy used, the building, also are not required, that land could be a park with trees (but of course less reality, the city itself does not need to grow as much to provide the infrastructure space for that retail space. The retail chain style simply can not economically nor environmentally compete with the logistic chain style. You just need more logistics companies to jump into retail and provide competition and shrink Amazon down to a manageable for the rest of society scale. Unkowledgeable women writing fantasy rubbish is utterly pointless. The kind of stupid stuff like "However, people arenâ(TM)t offsetting the traffic to shopping malls and grocery stores by buying online" is a stupid as fuck, so they buy that product online and go to the mall to what not buy that product, what the fuck are they doing in the mall if the already bought that product, probably buying something fucking else, or for a meal or the cinema. Nobody does both, it's fucking nuts, you do not buy online and they go to a mall to not buy the product, you do one or the other for that product.
