I would just like to take the time to point out that we have a 3-digit User ID here... So by default he knows what he is talking about. He remembers the 23 disk A-series of slackware.
You can only collapse one set of zeros, for precisely that reason. I don't remember if it is in the spec that it has to be the first set or not, as either way is unambiguous.
Social security is also dependent on the taxpayers paying back all of the IOUs that have been written when government took money from the funds to pay for other projects. But that is often neglected when the government wants to funnel more of your money into large corporations. The government, the banks, and wall street all know that in order for the bubble to continue long enough to get rich, they have to keep feeding the monster. Social security is not the pyramid scheme here, the US version of capitalism is the pyramid scheme.
"If I understand what communism is, the businesses are actually run and controlled by the government."
No, that's socialism. Communism is where people are all equal in the fact that they all use their specialties and innate talents to contribute to the greater good. In a true communist society, there is no government. There may be people who speak for the group, but it is supposed to be speaking the general consensus.
Of course, as a realist you can see the issue with that, can't you?
What we currently call communist regimes are actually socialist, bordering on fascist. I don't think that the world has seen anything resembling the ideal of communism outside of the hippie communes that dotted the landscape in the 70's, or an abby or something of the sort.
What functionality I don't want is having to upgrade messenger, and finding that it switched a bunch of crap in my browser, like searching from the address bar, and having to go through the chrome settings to fix it.
I thought that I read the disclaimers, but apparently not well enough. But I'm sure that it never said "Replace the default search in Firefox with Bing!"
I know that it wasn't Ballmer stating to do this, but some marketing drone talked to some codemonkey about getting Bing out there, and the end result was that I had to remove what is essentially crap adware and corporate shenanigans from my browser.
Yeah. I'm so sure that would go over really well. The iPhone cures cancer! Having one will make you bulletproof and will act as a parachute in case of an emergency.
Sure, let them say whatever they want. Why didn't we think of this sooner? Now those snakeoil salesmen can sell their moonshine without having to worry about those pesky little facts.
Many times these hacks are done to provide low cost calling to immigrants calling back home. $20 bucks can buy you almost unlimited phone time to talk to your entire village back home.
I love the ones that allow you to choose your own questions as well. I always pick ones that I know someone in IT would be able to pick, but aren't really from the IT field, per se.

It allows my employers to choose a successor should I pass on, and my brother a chance to clean out all the incriminating evidence from my web presence should he need to.

Should have landed me in jail a couple of times, at least.
good EFF'ing luck with that.

Came for this refrence, and was not disappointed.

If you were in the USA, would the deaf boy have prayed for you?

Only due to era.
What about Turing? Tesla? Archimedes? Einstein? Hawking? Those guys from 'Big Bang Theory'?
How much cooler do you want?

And I herd you liek mudkipz.
Print it out on paper, in a binary file.
Then print out every wikipedia article that deals with file formats that you think are relevant.
Not if the MPAA has its way.
Or language teaching hardware.

I remember the 30 floppy disk set - Just for the base installation. If you wanted to install the entire system, you needed about a hundred floppies.

Should government authorities be the ones making that decision?"
Should Apple?
