It's starting to look more like a MAC. It's now baked into the BIOS on Lenovo and Dell machines. It's still a security nightmare. It does not play nice with Office 2010 or Office 2013 or Office 2016. It now drives advertising at me via the start menu. It's unstable (Don't try to run a workstation for more than week without a reboot -- Linux isn't much better these days since systemctl came about). It frequently eats it's own files. And all the security they added to it, didn't solve the problems that they needed to solve.
The leading contributor of lobbying efforts to Congress is the healthcare industry. Number 2 is Telecom and there may be concerted effort on their part to be #1.
But they do offer local advertisements and for me to do restaurant reviews, etc. They're using the data. That line about not using or saving the data is pure BS.
That current airliner technology is also near supersonic. Most airliners run at about.8 or.9 mach. I like the idea of the tubes, Speed doesn't generally cause accidents, but it increases the severity of the damage they do to living and other things.
has more to do with greed than anything else. fiber won't get installed, unless it gets forced by governments at this point. Don't expect Telecom which lobbies congress nearly as hard as the healthcare industry to fight any kind of legislation that might protect consumers from them.
This isn't news. Our own country does it (and has been doing it for decades -originally through carefully placed news stories and advertising) to our own people in order to keep us divided because, heaven forbid, if we were to actually unite as a nation, then the government would have no choice but to follow. As it is, they just keep us fighting over the crumbs that fall off the table we don't have and never will have a seat at.
In 15 years, they should have moved to web base apps or Java apps. They could also have switched to OpenXchange. Say what you want about the exchange outlook combination, but the world which pays my bills, runs on it and it's very useful. Are there alternatives? Sure. Are they easy? no. Do you deploy windows because it's particularly robust, stable or secure? No. You deploy Windows because it's easy.
Right idea. Needs to be way less expensive than even you're talking. If I paid $5.00 for everything, then I'd be paying more than if I just grabbed a package from the cable company. $8.00/mon for netflix + 8 for Hulu + 8 for amazon prime +10 for CBS and HBO. What's the point of cutting the cord. I'm not saving anything?
It all still sucks.
Then it's a serious case of negligence? No paper records? Sorry folks. Electronic voting machines are too easy to tamper with for them to be a reliable source of votes.
And I like it. Unity was OK, but not great. They could always let Unity fork and let the community maintain it. As fare as desktop usability went, Unity wasn't all that great, but it was usable. I'm more disappointed by Ubuntu's move to become yet another (*yawn*) dysfunctional public company.
That's really too bad.

So you're suggesting extending single signon to actually be a clearing house for paywalls? Not a bad idea.

Disable the windows update service. Only enable it when you want to do updates. Saves a whole lot of headaches.
Worse, you can beat the face recognition with a photo, because face recognition does not work in 3 dimensions.
Ajit Pai is tone deaf.
Nah. Looks more like a refinement of Windows 8. In other words, it looks sort of like Unity. Not a good paradigm. Still like MATE

Unless your phone has a removable battery, it's always on, even when it's off.

Secure booting is a myth
Trust anyone who says, "Trust me."
None of them do a very good job at their primary purpose, either. You know...making phone calls.

go to keyboards.com. you can still purchase them with modern interfaces like wireless and usb.

Meh, a walled garden does not the internet make.
BTRFS is the future. ZFS is an incredible memory hog.

wow. take a look at all the fake news sources in that list.
No there won't. There won't be a local office to push back.
Next is state run media
