But never forget, one of the solutions to the inadequacies of the Three Laws is to limit the use of robots. Keep them out of situations where the Laws would cause more problems than solved, or don't design any that would be placed in those positions.
There's a kernel of truth there. The Left is open about their intentions. Assume power over everything they wish. Forgive their leaders of any crime. Win.
Using binary for your user name is almost as irritating as using 'Anonymous Coward' as your user name.
Almost.
I still really don't know who 0xC88 is, but I'm sure 'Anonymous Coward' is someone I know and personally have good reason to despise. Their politics merely reinforce that opinion.
If you changed just one word of your post, and that being a name, it will not only be entirely accurate, it would unspeakably offend you . And it should. You are that clueless.
but I've stopped playing those games (or quizzes, whatever) on FB and elsewhere not because of this, but because I 0) don't feel like being part of the thousands who think they are engaged in a relationship-building experience with strangers and 1) my family and friends aren't sending me an invite, they just clicked something, possibly bey accident.
Facts should not be suppressed because they inconvenience or offend someone, nor because they cause someone unwanted attention or discomfort. BUT, of course, some people think they should have a history that is of limited scope.
This is a problem similar to that of court records in a digital age. Now that we have the technology to actually access those 'public' records, suddenly there are some efforts to limit that newly-realized access. Poo. No.
Similar problem in the US with people taking advantage of available information and technology to manufacture their own firearms, which are both unregistered and untraceable. This is fundamental to the right to possess firearms, for if you can't make it, you can be denied the opportunity to acquire it, and denied the right to posses it. And there you are.
'Right to be forgotten' belongs to the rememberers, not to the data. If we choose to remember, we do. Too bad you are ashamed or afraid of your history.
More likely Microsoft is looking forward to cloud-everything, and local mail clients are not part of that dream. Data collection is somewhat more difficult when you've got your own mail server.
I kinda get this instantly, and don't need more specificity to understand this is bragging on your network size, which is about 7.65e-8 light years, which is a strange number to some, but perhaps you'd be happier knowing it's about 2.42 light seconds.
All they should be working on is keeping them from turning all racist Nazi. When their AI chatbots are biased towards kinder, gentler personalities, then we can find value in their learning from that base quicker.
But, having been programmed by humans, should we expect kinder, gentler? And why?
Does no one remember the days of the Korean servers spoofing your mail server and sending error reports all over the globe in your server's name?
Ah, the good old days. Filling my Groupwise server volume with undeliverables in hours. The old Exchange servers just rolling over dead.
I really don't trust email I either do not expect or are new senders to me, and the White House doesn't send me anything. Neither does the IRS, except for, ready, online ID authentication and update requests. Yeah, great stuff. SSA does this also.
Really, the White House email domains are being spoofed by someone right now. It's just such a rewarding hobby for someone.
Funny, but PLATO was delivering email, blogs, chat rooms, and instant messaging in the mid 70s. Don Bitzer built a lot of this, long with flat panel displays and touchscreens in the 60s. People like Ray Ozzie saw the system and came away inspired. Some of the people who attended UIUC include Marc Andreessen, Thomas Siebel, that Ozzie guy, Peng T. Ong, Steve Dorner, Brendan Eich, almost a who's who of the computer industry. Lots of innovation there.
And yes, shamefully, I still play Avatar on Cyber1. I don;t use the email, notes, or Talkomatic stuff much though, just in-game chat.
Hard to tell who invented email. I suspect someone at DEC and/or IBM were doing this early on, as much of this must have been obvious to sharp people.
People take jobs, signing non-compete clauses, knowing these are unenforceable. While most of the EULAs we are discussing are not so obviously unenforceable, and so we agree thinking it's no big deal, some particularly egregious terms would not survive a challenge.
And unfortunately that won't ever get your data back. We will need laws that compel agencies to confirm, by some verifiable means, that they got rid of what they should not have had. This will mean forcing these agencies (and corporations soon enough) to open up, and of course they will fight that, fight the implementation, and fight the requirements to be open by default. It will take multiple tries, and will, in the US, require the support and intentional actions of Congress and the President, whoever they happen to be.
Apple hasn't made a secret of their intentions to homogenize the experience, the OS, the apps along their product lines. iPhones drive the business, iPads are a shrinking market, Macs are still busy, and Apple TV is probably better defined as 'we wish it was viable', but they keep their feet wet in it. Speakers are an also-ran. Siri needs to be upgraded to offer value to Mac users.
Making an 'A" style CPU makes sense, and developers who can't learn iOS will find life hard for other reasons. It remains to be seen if iOS is useful for traditionally desktop apps, but this could encourage devs to start building cloud-dependent apps for Macs, and that lets Macs be lightweight and have longer battery life. Add an LTE modem and that's that.
I was at an Intel facility the day Dell announced they would sell servers with AMD processors. You would have thought people had lost their firstborn. The rumor that a team member had been fired just because they were laughing in the cafeteria was partly true; they weren't in the cafeteria. Miserable day. I wonder what's going on there today...
about China's intentions when they 'develop' anything in the hinterlands, is how this will assist them in destroying or diminishing the indigenous, non-Chinese, population.

Which does solve a problem...
So which do you know is true, yet doesn't offend you?
Closer...

As ugly as it is, do the police never bother to answer such ads, come armed, and rescue these victims?
By that standard a number telephone pole should be cut down. Or perhaps bury every foot of cable worldwide.
And outlaw exterior walls while you're at it.
And spray paint.
And writing instruments.
"Bill Clinton was the lovable and cuddly rubber faced democrat. He was a living, breathing, feel-good campaign. "
My mom describes him as 'an 8 by 10 glossy of himself'.
Damned close.
It does appear that being an idiot pays off. Smart is overrated.
Oh, wait...
You should not have forgotten that all legislation is someone's morality.

You ought to change your name just to confuse us.

And now I lie on my security questions.
And it is journalistic.

Somewhat.
If your coworkers *can* move off of Exchange someone is doing it wrong.
And when you start in with 'whaaaa?', you don't understand Exchange. At all. Think first.
What part is strange to you? Miles? Fiber? Route?

There's a 50-50 chance I've been managing email systems since before you were born.

Many, not all, are unenforceable. And not in all states.

I'm not there any more. Completed the project.
Yeah, Deepak will just reach across the pond and toggle the power to the DNS server.

Especially in Tibet.
