Not sure if it is day 1 but watch out for "The Witcher 3" DLCs. They are going to mock larger companies by giving you their DLCs for free, well if you purchase the game. No need to preorder, just buy it.
Review embargo yes but not until after the release of the game. This is usually reserved for the real shitty games. The ones that are hyped to no end but ultimately fail to deliver.
Not only that. Yahoo is one of those providers that will silently drop messages. My server receives an "OK" but the message never makes it to the inbox - puff - gone.
Orban has planned consultations over the next year to look for other ways to tax revenue generated over the internet.
How come countries always double dip? I already pay income tax on every cent I make. Any other taxes are double, triple,... dipping on already taxed money.
I really hope I will see the day when we strangle politicians by their fucking neck ties.
"new stuff requires new debugging methods on failure, avoid new stuff."
Not an issue with new stuff but I do have an issue with new features that makes things harder to use/debug. I don't care about this on my laptop but I will switch to a server focused distro when I rebuild my cluster in a year.
This is why I really like Linux. Once you know Linux you can select a distribution based on features, not because it is hip.
"Eltern haften für Ihre Kinder" => "Parents are liable for their Children"
Is a sign that is used around construction sites in Germany. I have seen it all my life but it basically is complete bullshit. There are a LOT of cases where children may damage the property of others but the parents will not have to pay. I don't know who makes these retarded laws.
What happens when someone steals the db. Will they now have the data required to emulate the owner's voice against other sound based authentication methods?
You can torrent on shared connections and even wifi. You just can't be a greedy asshole about it and allow your torrent client to use as many connections as possible.
Limit connections to ~20-80, max download 70% line capacity, max upload at 50% capacity.
Why would you allow anybody to connect on a port they have no business using?!?!?!?!
My servers limit connections on port 22 to the IP-range of my ISP and my static IP from work.
Zero unauthorized login attempts over SSH for the past years.

Attend public gatherings, preferably once that are not main stream, and compare the "news" reports about the event. "News Networks" are propaganda outlets. Not as bad as in Nazi Germany but fuck are those reports loaded with agendas at times / most times.
Nevertheless, Apple assures its Chinese users that their personal data on China Telecom is encrypted and that the encryption keys will be stored offshore.
So the keys are only stored back at the headquarter in the USA?
The place where a "judge" can order any company to deliver the customer's data to the state? Data of users who may not be citizens of the USA and even data that is stored on foreign soil.
True but these people in government are directly responsible for wasting the taxpayers money. Their incompetence costs any of us dearly.
I recently quit my cushy government job because I don't want to be part of the problem anymore. These people are so stuck in their ways that they are not interested in saving money or improving things. "This is how we have been doing things for years, so this is how we keep on sailing."
I have had a few government jobs in the USA and Germany and the one thing I noticed is that the same lazy people hold the same positions. Only the name of the country changes.....
So all I need to do is get an image that Google knows to be child porn and send it to people I don't like. Political assassinations have just become very easy.
I have been vary of Google for a while but now they have gone too far.
What is next? Calling the police because I send someone a mail about cannabis, sex with men or anything that is illegal in some countries.
The dough does not contain any THC; just the yeast that can create it. Is my business legal?
It used to be legal to purchase cannabis seeds in Germany because they do not contain THC. As far as I know, it is still like this in the UK and Spain.
Austria is also very funny when it comes to the "evil plant". One may purchase cannabis clones and keep them at home. However, flowering them is not legal.

One of the VERY few companies left that actually care about the consumer. DRM free from Day 1 - get it at GOG.com

Only happens with Yahoo.
That must be the reason the game runs like utter crap on PC as well. Ohh wait, it is not!

Great but the image stops way short of the bezel. What good is a 1mm bezel if the image stops 5mm before it in every direction?

I always ask myself how I could possibly survive with only 1.2MB/s down (basic DSL). Then I turn my Internet TV on and notice that it works just fine.
Sure I can get fiber but why would I? I'd have to pay more for no benefit other then that I can download a 20-40GB game quicker.

Use a drone -> Told you! They produce equipment for the military or CIA.
Use a plane -> You know how many birds die to props each year? Murderers!
Use a jeep -> Ohh gawd the environment!
User solar powered vehicle -> WTF? You never get the energy back!
Use a camel that is probably better cared for then dogs in PETA kennels -> Think of the animals!!!

mhhh what is that called ... oh yea Bullshit! and citation needed!
Almost forgot. The place where you get punished for not revealing your encryption key(s) to the court.
"I have something to hide, my privacy."
Nevertheless, Apple assures its Chinese users that their personal data on China Telecom is encrypted and that the encryption keys will be stored offshore.
So the keys are only stored back at the headquarter in the USA?
The place where a "judge" can order any company to deliver the customer's data to the state?
Data of users who may not be citizens of the USA and even data that is stored on foreign soil.
so the issue isn't isolated to government.

Do you really believe that your vote matters?
Your vote does one thing and one thing alone. It legitimizes the current system.
this!
A proper power supply and steppers are "expensive" but I would buy one if he can manage to make a unit for around 1500 EUR.
Amazon, .... only 15 percent of its energy comes from clean sources, which is about the default national average.
Well that sucks!
Are there any 100% nuclear powered DCs out there?
