There's a very large road between "Broken like in the days of 95 or 98" and "Not broken". They're meandering closer every other version, but not nearly there yet.
Every single government thing involving any money at all is an income redistribution plan.
Corporate tax benefits are income redistribution plans. Military spending budgets are income redistribution plans. Spectrum auctions are income redistribution plans.
This particular income redistribution plan is only different in that income is redistributed to the poor instead of the rich.
A blanket hatred to somebody based on believes is irrational; such blanket hatred would itself be a believe. That does not mean that a dislike, or perhaps even hatred, of any individual religion is irrational. History tells us that eventually, all religions will end: None of the earlier religions are still being practiced. Assuming there are common reasons earlier religions have ended, these reasons also apply to the world's current religions.
There's rich schools, which can buy all the expensive stuff themselves. There are average schools, which can buy only cheap stuff. And then there are underprivileged schools which get it all the expensive stuff for free.
I know supporting underprivileged schools makes for a better marketing story, but it isn't very effective.
Just wait 364 days, until he's locked all his authentication to the NFC, then some chloroform and a scalpel will give him all the privacy and security violation he's asking for.
FYI, the federal definition of terrorism: - - - - - - - -
18 U.S.C. 2331 defines "international terrorism" and "domestic terrorism" for purposes of Chapter 113B of the Code, entitled "Terrorism”:
"International terrorism" means activities with the following three characteristics: * Involve violent acts or acts dangerous to human life that violate federal or state law; * Appear to be intended (i) to intimidate or coerce a civilian population; (ii) to influence the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion; or (iii) to affect the conduct of a government by mass destruction, assassination, or kidnapping; and * Occur primarily outside the territorial jurisdiction of the U.S., or transcend national boundaries in terms of the means by which they are accomplished, the persons they appear intended to intimidate or coerce, or the locale in which their perpetrators operate or seek asylum.*
"Domestic terrorism" means activities with the following three characteristics: * Involve acts dangerous to human life that violate federal or state law; * Appear intended (i) to intimidate or coerce a civilian population; (ii) to influence the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion; or (iii) to affect the conduct of a government by mass destruction, assassination. or kidnapping; and * Occur primarily within the territorial jurisdiction of the U.S.
18 U.S.C. 2332b defines the term "federal crime of terrorism" as an offense that: * Is calculated to influence or affect the conduct of government by intimidation or coercion, or to retaliate against government conduct; and * Is a violation of one of several listed statutes, including 930(c) (relating to killing or attempted killing during an attack on a federal facility with a dangerous weapon); and 1114 (relating to killing or attempted killing of officers and employees of the U.S.).
FISA defines "international terrorism" in a nearly identical way, replacing "primarily" outside the U.S. with "totally" outside the U.S. 50 U.S.C. 1801(c).
There are already laws in place that deal with everything mentioned in TFA, and these laws work online as they do in the real world. The online world does not need additional laws, rules or regulations that the real world does not.
One can't do without the other. Common sense is the ability to deal with the necessities of reality that don't interrest you. Brilliant artists still usually to go to the toilet; they're not being creative about everything all the time.
Factors like trying to limit civilian casualties? The era of true, full-blown, kill-or-be-killed wars is behind us. Modern wars are waged using politics with military force just one of many pawns.
If the US (or other nuclear countries) wanted to, they could wipe ISIS territory completely off the map, collatoral damage be damned.
I think he was merely stating the obvious idea that with the weapons used by current day military, the whole defence-against-government argument for gun ownership is no longer valid. Whatever car roof-mounted machinegun you might have is laughably underpowered for the task of overpowering government.
The argument was a good one when both government and civilians had access to the same class of weaponry. Unless you want the public to be able to own strike drones, bombers and nuclear rockets, the argument should be shelved; anybody using it these days is just making a fool of himself.
tries to cram the regular version of Windows into a 2" display.
Ofcourse they're not THAT stupid. They will design a new interface specifically suited to 2" displays on one-button devices. It'll replace the start menu on Windows 10.
At least another 5 Windows Phones were sold while I was being dealt with.
Was this some kind of fire sale to get rid of stock? I've never been to a "local EE store" on a non-launch day and had that many customers waiting in line to buy the exact same product, of any product.
A host not caring is the worst thing possible in this situation. Not caring makes it easy to just delete the site instead of bothering with paper work and lawyers.
I bought a Nexus 7 2012 in the assumption Google would update the OS as long as the hardware could handle it. Luckily CyanogenMod still fully supports it.
This isn't mere libel. This is a case of one person impersonating another. Not parodying, but with the intent of making the world believe he is that person. This is a case of identity theft. There are no freedom-of-speech conflicts here.
Fixed costs are the same, spread over half the customers, meaning the prices go up. Your desire to be able to choose would mean that everyone would pay more for the same service, not less.
You assume the prices of service are based on fixed cost. Profit margins for cable companies are somewhere inbetween 30%-40%. There are some numbers floating around saying they have a 97% profit margin. This number is wrong as it lacks all kinds of costs, but the remaining 3% is the fixed cost. If their fixed costs would double, they'd still have plenty of profit margin to allow them to compete.
Right. Just like software developers get all the time in the world from their employers to make secure and bug free products, but they simple don't have any inclination and ability to do so.

What does this even mean?
Every single government thing involving any money at all is an income redistribution plan.
Corporate tax benefits are income redistribution plans.
Military spending budgets are income redistribution plans.
Spectrum auctions are income redistribution plans.
This particular income redistribution plan is only different in that income is redistributed to the poor instead of the rich.
I guess if you could set up your own repository, this could be a useful tool for enterprises.

UAC will display a warning, this exploit only touches users who run as admin.
I don't think any still supported version of Windows defaults to admin.

RTFA.
They have no way of knowing if they are officially on the list, since they have specifically asked and received an answer that doesn't say either way.
What is to stop the TSA from putting these people back on the list after a short wait?
Also, isn't putting 1.5 million names on a list basically admitting "We don't know".
