Is it free or included in the package? Is it free as in going into a store and ask for 50 of them and I get them, no questions asked? Because that would be free. Or is it limited to 1 per person? Because that is less free. Or do you have to own an iPhone 7, because then it is not free, but part of the service you paid for. I could understand the limited free as in 1 per person per week at most. Anything else and it's nor free.
Do you really thing that the extra $2 is it? Or are you saying that people should start working for the same amount of money people in India make to be competitive?
Or are you just moaning without an actual solution?
Please tell me what 'better' is. Also what 'more convenient' and 'easier to use' is. Some will say that a better connection is XLR + Phone Jack and also that it is easier to use and more convenient. Obviously YMMV and it most definitely will.
The first is obvious. It is cash. It is used almost everywhere. It is pretty well accepted and the usage is legal. Even Homer knows that money can be exchanged for goods and services. Sex is the second one. It is accepted on many places, but not always and it will be highly dependable on request and demand. If it is legal will depend on where you are. Some can get higher grades, promotions, housing or even drinks,. Theft is the third one. This only in one way and it is illegal if you want it to be anonymous. It can become legal if you have traces, like being a large company or a bank.
I assume the majority of people here have either worked in a callcenter or are working for a callcenter as IT or have done so. Remember when you had to buy a headphone that was available only for that specific brand and what the prices where for those headphones? That is going again to be the case.
So what are they going to do with all the extra cash they are going to get for the more expensive headphones? They will build a war chest because I forsee now that in the near future Europe will knock on Apples door to use a standard connection. People here will blame Europe for being Anti-American and the whole shabank will start anew with anything else they can come up with.
I really, really, really wish Microsoft hadn't bailed out Apple when they where almost banktrupt.
And seriosuly, I would LOVE a thicker phone, because that would mean more place for a battery and that means increased battery life. Because what they do now is go larger, but thinner. That decreases the usable volume. And if siwe matter for you: here is a small waterproof phone that you can buy for a 'bit' less than an iPhone.
Take it from someone with first hand experience: they are. I also know people who left the US, because they were not happy in the US and are happy in Europe. Do I LIKE paying taxes? No, obvously not. That does not mean that I do not agree with them. I also am not that much bothered about the taxes.
I care if I am able to live a good life and that I do. I have enough at the end of the month to spend it on my 35 days of vacation I get as well as living a life for me and not my company working 38-ish hours per week and nothing more.
I have been to the US and people pretend to be happier, but when you ask, they are not.
Wages increasing to keep up with inflation? That sounds like a nice change of pace, let's do it!
Done in Belgium. When there is an increase of 2%, you wage increases (same with a decrease). Once had a HR manager who send an email that we would be getting a 2% pay raise. She then had to give AND the payraise AND the pay increase. Ah, fun times.
Discussion is mainly about what should and what should not be in the index. e.g. no luxery items or cigarettes, but also no fuel for cars.
All in all, it works well. No need to renegotiate your income every year or two to keep up. And yes, pensions are affected as well. Also your rent can be indexed and most people who rent will have that in their contract. I am one of the lucky ones and still pay the same rent I paid in 2000 when I moved to where I live.
And yet they are able to smuggle them via airplanes. Yes it is happening less, but that has to do more with the volume that needs to be transported and not so much about how many are caught, because enough still pass each day.
That is good and well concerning the technical site, but I doubt that any content provider said "technically it is better to do it via an app". I doubt that any of them have stopped with the web version of the data. I am pretty confident in saying that the driving factor was the Marketing department. So instead of replacing all the glue, they added more glue.
The thing is not if you use real data or not (I watch porn, so what?) The thing is that it could be used for other things. I do not care if people hack pornhub or/. What I am worried about is the username/password combination.
Unlike many others here, I do not have the ability to remember all the usernames and passwords and unfortunately using a program to do it for me is not an option.
I do use several paswords: 1) Home connection. Security level: pretty high. Not used anywhere else 2) Email and banking. Only 'official email' and banking. Security level pretty high. Used at 4 sites (email and banking only) 3) Commercial password. Used for sites where I buy stuff. Around 15 companies like my ISP, telecom, amazon and the like. 4) All the rest. These are sites where I am not buying anything. Nothing will be bought there EVER.
So this would fall into category 4, together with/. and Imgur and other sites. Might even be that in the past I have added myself to pornhub. Could be, I do not know. So to me that hacking is not about the content of the site. It is about the retrieving of the password and the inability to remember all the websites I have used and am using and thus having NO idea what they could find.
So get of your high horse and don't look at the content of the site, but talk like an adult about the result as if it were/. that was hacked. Because you masturbate as well (unless you are not old enough yet to do so) and to what you or others masturbate is irrelevant. 4)
There are basocally two different kind of poor people. People who are poor becuase the don't have an income. Those are the poor people we are talking about. People who can not handle their money. Those are the people who blow all their money. These wil be poor, even if Bill Gates gave them all his money.
So how do you deal with the second group? See that they don't get there. Educating them might be a solution. And some will always be a lost cause. help them the first time and let them go the second time.
And take a serious look at how these people get credit.
First you need to look at the difference between head count and work hours. If you have a job that takes 120 hours per week, you can have 1 person work himself to death and replace him when he died. You can have two people working 60 hours You can have 3, 4, 5, 6 dor the job. 6 people working 20 hours or 4 days 5 hours.
If you get almost the same for working 20 hours as you do working 60 hours, why would you work 60 hours? Would you not rather be with friends or family (or completely alone, away from anybody, including cow orkers if that is what you want). We work to live after all, not live to work.
You devide the task over the people available.
The machines also should be working for all, not just the owners of the machine.
No, we do not need that option, because it means we agree with what is going on. Can it be used as a workaround? Sure. And how do you know it is not still sending the real info? What we need is : a) a way to turn it off if we so desire. b) having it off by default, c) Only usage within the domain, so no sales of the date. No usage of Google data for Youtube. d) Insight in what they are doing with the data e) ability to remove the data (not just hide it) d) limited time that this information can be stored
If that is too hard for them then boo-fucking-hoo.
Will this ever happen? No, because our data is way more valued than we are.
Would you fire your cow orker? Would you fire the coffee lady or the person sitting at the reception?
To me it depends. Are they doing their job? If so, then no. If they don't, then yes. Not really that hard. What often is the problem is twofold. 1) The amount they get (including bonuses) is not realistic compared to the work they do compared to others. Should they earn more? Sure. Should they earn 200 times more? No. 2) It is often unclear of what his job is. Most of the time it is pretty simple, make as much money for the company as possible. Sometimes it is something else, like "increase the market position to..." or "increase the market value of the shares". And that might be something that is not correctly interpreted. Is it possible to achieve these goals and are they realistic or is he achieving them, then no, he should not be fired. What might need to be done is to change the goals.
And there lies the issue. Are the goals something we can agree with or are those the issue? Perhaps we do not want to increase the market value of the company for a buyout. We want to keep as much people employed as possible. Or we want to give better service to customers instead of lowering prices to increase the market share. And if we are able to change the goals, is he still the best choice for these or not? If not, fire him. If so, all the better.
Just look at him as any employee and treat him the same. I get fired if I don't do my job and so should he, but first ask what that job actually is.
I can be the world best perl programmer and am hired to write perl, but if the rest works with c# what I do is meaningless and a waste of money.
If you have an issue with your partner. It is her/his fault. If you have a problem with your partner the second time, it is the fault of the both of you. If you have a problem with your partner the third time, it is your fault.
So if ALL your CEOs are an issue, perhaps the issue is you.
There are thousands that are coming to Europe as well. Your point being? And most of the time denouncing a nationality is not even worth the trouble. You just stop picking up your passport. I know plenty of people who never denounced their nationality, yet have no interest in having it. Why bother if doing nothing is easier then taking action and cheaper as well.
They just pretend enough that they are not just admitting it. Bit like the NSA and FBI and others. "So fucking what" is the new defense and it seems to work. Banks, politicians, countries, companies. They all get caught with their hands in the cookie jar and cookies in their hands and mouth and all they say is "So fucking what." and nothing is done. So why should it not be transparent.
It is also clear that Russia does not want Hillary to win, otherwise they would be digging up dirt about Trump and I am 100% sure that it is there.
And if you think it can't get worse, you ain't seen nothing yet. The lying will go on and get worse and worse. And this from ALL involved, unless you do something about it.
I just hope it will be a peaceful process. History shows me that is almost never is. And when will this happen? No idea. Only afterwards will we be able to tell that it was obvious. Could be just the right person sitting in the back of the bus. Could be somebody throwing tea in a harbour, Could be taking off the heads of the establishment. Perhaps one charismatic person that pulls us out, or one that almost cills us all and fropm the ashes the people will rise.
Condensation. It ruins the warranty on your phone, even when you never held it under water. Think people with glasses that walk into a busy pub. So the technical solution is to not have that happen anymore. The marketing solution when it IS waterproof is to tell you afterwards you need it to go swimming with it. Just like they tell you that you need to drink bottled water because marketing and we do instead of solving possible issues with our drinking water.

So they agree you need the dongle. Build it into the phone then already.
Is it free or included in the package? Is it free as in going into a store and ask for 50 of them and I get them, no questions asked? Because that would be free.
Or is it limited to 1 per person? Because that is less free. Or do you have to own an iPhone 7, because then it is not free, but part of the service you paid for.
I could understand the limited free as in 1 per person per week at most. Anything else and it's nor free.
Perhaps there is a way to build the dongle into the phone itself
