Their value is in the detection, they can tip you off that the user has been installing questionable things. Of course, in many environments that's beside the point, since a compromised desktop shouldn't be able to bring important things down, and it will just get reimaged at the next reboot.
How do Google and Apple stand to benefit? I can think of a number of deals both have with telecoms that would probably get much more sour if they start undercutting the telecoms' core business.
It's not even just about what Facebook might do with it. Do you trust the data to be secured so that no one steals it? What about when Facebook allows anyone with money to manipulate huge chunks of the population, like they did most famously with last year's election? We haven't even experienced the full implications of social media tracking yet.
For me personally, I already was an outcast. I seek out groups of similarly minded outcasts who have better ways of doing things than society at large. Plenty of them use Facebook but not having an account there has never caused problems for me. I have experienced nothing but inclusion since I went outside normies for my social needs. it's almost as if... you don't have to do dumb things just because most other people do.
I've had a lot of jobs and a lot of fucks, all during the social media period (2006 - present)... None of them came from social media. The internet? Plenty came from there. Some even came from IRL socializing.
Still never gave anything up to FB or the other Twits.
Sounds like a better deal than what you're getting.
Really he just opened up the possibility that someone without credentials might have skills. Going through the accredation process is one way to get the skills, and it usually works. but it's hardly required, especially in the information age. The problem with this particular woman is that she lacked the skills, so I'm not sure what the fixation on her degree is.
Oh, I was paying attention. If some random Republican started saying the things Trump did, that random Republican would not have been elected. Star power and cult-of-personality were huge factors. The entire mythology of his lIfe and similar leeches on society. He didn't need endorsements because he has all that himself. But if you want to gauge how effective the "celebrity-industrial complex" (lol) was in the election, more people actually did pull the lever for Hilary. In case you weren't paying attention.
They don't get any points from me, considering this is something that doesn't affect their revenue directly. (Or indirectly as far as I know.) Real courage, not apple-courage, is doing the right thing when it's not easy.
Slavoj Zizek refers to this as "the illusion of freedom". You're free to be assfucked by whoever you want! If you are able to get a college education, haven't got swept up in the police state, and win the job lottery, maybe they'll even use lube.
He has little insight or even concern about appealing to a broader variety of voters. Election turnout is so low, coupled with our election system (gerrymandered districts and the electoral college), that relatively small groups of extremists can swing an election. The few issues he does take a genuine personal interest in are almost invariably opposed to the interests of workers. I don't doubt the propaganda machine will continue to fool tons of them, but I do hope that as the failures continue to be writ large, turnout will increase, meaning a better ratio of reasonable people to extremists at the polls.
Retarded why? It's the launch for the biggest product at&t sells. At&t bigwigs are guaranteed to be there, probably in the front row. The place is already saturated with press. That's where all the eyes are. It sounds like what you really think is retarded is the fact that somebody is protesting something.
Given what most people use btc for, it's more like poppy bulbs than tulip bulbs. I hear opium holds value pretty well, although you can't store it for as long as you can store a Bitcoin.
Or they could just add a notice when switching over to full capacity that battery lifespan will be reduced and the warranty voided. Whatever considerations Tesla is making, aren't legal considerations.
The algorithm was trained on pictures from dating sites, which isn't exactly a representative data set. A large portion of the pictures have been manipulated or at least carefully selected by the person who uploaded them. There are a portion of gays who try to signal their gayness through things like styling and mannerisms, which would be easy for an algorithm to pick up on. These types are going to be overrepresented in the data set.
The Chinese might have more sophisticated farming techniques than Africans, but to hold them up as examples of ecological efficiency is misguided. The food grown in Africa to support the Chinese factory worker, in turn, supports the Chinese factory. And part of that Chinese factory money goes back to pull more resources out of mines in Africa, which are worse than any farming.
I've never paid more than ~$50 for a phone in my life. Never signed a service contract either (=monthly bill $30-50 depending on data). The Android phone I'm using now was $25, I've got a year of use out of it and counting. I never once wanted for anything more, except for storage space, which I fixed with an SD card I had lying around.
If you're having to look at financing or leasing a phone purchase, maybe instead look at getting a different phone. It's not 2009 anymore, there are plenty of capable phones available at double-digit price points. I know that makes it difficult to keep up with the Kardashians, but it might also keep you out of economic slavery. I know people who have missed rent payments because they have AT&T and Apple automatically pulling $150/mo+ out of their account.
This is called generative music, and it's not new. Since this is Slashdot, you may recall that the music in Spore was entirely machine-generated, in real-time no less. No pre-recording, no overdubs. The man behind the Spore music, Brian Eno, has been experimenting with music based on rules and randomness (but not computers) since 1975, using a deck of special cards, calling it "oblique strategies". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

Which country is yours? If it's America, you seem to be under the delusion that cops there don't routinely steal from people who have not been accused, much less convicted of a crime. Asset forfeiture by the police topped what burglars steal in home invasions for the first time last year, and the trend is only going up. Even if the badge they hide behind has a body camera in it, it will mysteriously not be engaged during these incidents.

Why would a counterfeiter go to a toilet at the bank to dispose of them?

At Equifax I think the hiring process is more based on circling the head with your tongue as you grip the shaft.
That might make sense if it were a couple people involved, not a couple dozen. Including several Canadians now as well.
The signal to noise ratio on the internet was a lot better in the 90s. Not good... Just better.

If the people didn't give a fuck about what celebrities thought, they wouldn't have put one in the white House.
"hoping some miracle revelation or networking connection will save you" isn't the model for most startups?

Most people don't have 4 kids, don' camp but once a year if that, and don't haul loads. The cars the model s competes with cost much less than 22k.
