Because whit all that is going on, it looks as if Churchill wrote their war speech.
We shall go on to the end. We shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be. We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender,
or are we completely back to the bad old days of every application drawing into a dumb framebuffer?
We have an initd, that tries to do everything that starts a wibdowmanager, that tries to do everything running a desktop, that tries to do everything so I can run a browser that tries to do everything to visit a website that tries to do everything running ads that try to do everything.
Why not let the market sort it out. These people where bought fair and square. How much have you paid for it? Nothing? Are you a communist or worse, a socialist?
That said, unless there are SERIOUS changes done on a political level, the only thing that will come of it is that the wording will change.
"We have altered Net Neutrality. Hope we won't alter it any further."
I do understand that this is not the fault of your party, but the other ones. Divide and conquer still works, I see.
I know of as situation where a CEO had an affair with his married secretary. To top that her husband worked in the same company and after the relationship became public decided to stay married and kept working for the same boss. No, I have no idea why and I do not want to know.
How have these people interrupted the speech of the current POTUS? Hint: they have not.
The medium POTUS decided to use is specifically there so people can react to it. If he does not want that, there are many other ways to communicate his messages and not have people reply to them.
In no way have these people interrupted his speech in any way and THAT is a difference that makes comparing these things like comparing apples with Wednesday.
Accountability is a serious issue. Not only in business, but also in policing and politics. The fact is that many things are decided legally and not morally.
It is a bit like sleeping with your best friends SO. If they then hit you in the face with a brick, you legally did nothing wrong, but you well deserved the brick in your face. (Yes, the SO as well, but that is a separate issue.)
Please define "best". And I see no reason that humans could not be counted as the best in the future. We might be able to kill everything off and make food from the sun directly, cutting out the middle man. Not now, but perhaps in a few hundred or thousand years we might be able to survive without any other life forms.
How does making code hard to read prevent reverse engineering. This is like saying that changing the port of ssh makes your system safer. To me it just sounds like security through obscurity.
And the code you see is generated by a database anyway. Car example: it is reverse engineering an engine of a car by opening the doors.
If I buy a stolen bicycle, even if I did not know it was stolen, they will take that bike away. What about the data that was sold? Are they now requested to delete it? Or is it ok to use data that is obtained via something illegal? Could they sell it themselves now?
As you work in a museum, you will most likely be aware that people have been saying that since 1838 If peopel say they want something it does not mean they actually are willing to have it. Just that if it was given to them, they would not throw it out right away.
I have a house for sale and ALL the people who told me they would love to have it, said no. Even when I asked them they could have it for almost free (notary costs and the like, so I do not have to pay anything). These are people who visited the house.
What you should do if people say they would want to have it is to just take it as a compliment that they like it, not that they actually want to have it.
And yes, your customers are demanding it, because they come to you to have an experience. You will also be aware that many people who visit museums won't visit one in their own home (unless they have visitors or the like). Just because I would visit the Nachtwacht, I would not want it at home, but if you give it to me, I would not throw it out either.
I would not look surprised if those leaks came from Russia as well. First they help him to power (by getting people not to vote for Clinton) then they undermine his power by giving away this kind of information.
If the same thing would happen in Russia, two things could happen (one not excluding the other) 1) The person mentioning it will get made dead 2) Putin will say "So fucking what? I also use my own email server. " and go on.
For those that are not aware what you are talking about. The 14 days is a tight to refund for any and all remote transactions. Be it online or even people that visit your house.
Also a sale is something that is done to empty a stock, in general. It is now used to push volume.
Download would be available. At a -pay-per-play basis or at a much lower quality., like ringtones or at the same price as you would pay for a CD for only one device
On the plus side, music would have been so much better as they would have invested their money in the artists instead of in marketing and legal fees. (Ok, I might have made that last part up)
Real solution is allow market to determine the cost of commute.
That is already the case. If I get a job next door and one that is 2 hours commute, I will take the one with less commute time, if the rest is the same. 2 hours commute is about my limit. If it is more, I would need a lot more. Obviously YMMV, but if you do not count in your daily commute, you are stealing that time from yourself, your family or your action figures.
I know many people who have taken lesser paid jobs because it was less commute. Ands I have seen people take better paid jobs, even if it was more commute. So it already works.
I do get my public transport already paid for by my company, so there's that. Yes, I do live in Europe. Nothing special about it here in Belgium.
With a car I get about 25% of my travel. With public transport 100%. I now even do not own a car anymore.
Used to work in a hotel. Front desk person thought we had a person that he saw in the Newspaper.Called the police to ask some generic questions and the (Belgian version of) SWAT team came. Was not the intention.
What I want to say is that it is not your decision if they send a SWAT team or just somebody to look what is going on. It is theirs.
Obviously there is a way to prevent all this. Don't use it. Sure, it will make your life a living hell and how could you live without it, but that is the price you pay for privacy these days. (OK, that last part might have been a tad sarcastic.)
Why turn it into a law when people hand over their rights willingly? It is so much easier to do it this way. Just change the law to say that it is like speaking in public.
When I worked at a major electronic company in Belgium, the warranty period went from 1 to 2 years. We also sold extended warranties and that made a nice sum. When we went from 1 to 2 years, that would mean the following: 1) More repairs done during the warranty period 2) Less sales in warranties as people will think 2 years might be enough. So I asked the CEO if this was a burden and he said no. The reason as that we knew exactly how much it would cost and the price was adapted accordingly (I believe an increase of 1% or less).
So what will happen is that the prices will slightly go up, so the companies will need to make up in loss for a tiny bit. Not even enough to really notice. If this means I get a better product that can be used for longer, I have no problem that the government "forces" me to pay a bit more.
It is a bit like paying extra for a red triangle in your car. It is a small extra cost required by law to have, but in the end it is better, even if I (hopefully) never need to use it.
0% That does not mean that doing things that way are not a good thing. It is good that there is a government that does what is good for the people, not just what the people think is nice for them.
You could also ask who wants to pay taxes or if they rather have to pay for ice cream or have free ice cream.

So in the end it is only about who has the deepest pockets. If only there where a system that would work for the people and was done by the people.
Sarcasm: not for everybody.

They should make that in a movie or 2.

With how easy the walking robots fall over (we have all seen the videos), it should not be that hard.
