This should be more evidence that there are real and substantial differences between the Democratic and Republican parties. Yes, there are a small number of Democrat senators who aren't in favor of net neutrality, and there are a small number of Republican senators who are in favor, but the vast majority of each group have taken positions exactly as expected. There are real differences between the major political parties.
As a Canadian, our government is in favor of Net Neutrality, and our ISPs will be looking to bypass traffic originating from the USA that has indications of favouritism
I am in my mid 70s . On an open road I have the cruise set to 65mph and I tend to stay in the right lane, except when approaching a ramp entrance when I swing to center.
I drive defensively, and considerately. What we need to eliminate mirrors is anticipation logic coupled with road condition logic. Iced roads and potential to skid detection system is a prerequisite.
I'll stick to using a physical mirror system that I use and which will not break down.
A uninformed stupid post. Bravo to what the Chinese are doing. It will work. As an example of a similar program, Israel was predominantly desert. A 50 year tree planting program recovered more than 50 percent of land from desert to agriculture and to establish towns where before, none existed.
Perhaps they need to put a frosted glass area around floor level to serve as a distraction to obsessive cellphone texters. Walk and text is really proof of impatient people. .
I believe that wine is a mapping of windows calls to Linux calls. Perhaps, Microsoft has done the reverse. It is always best to go vanilla, except where graphics drivers are concerned. A vendor should only be required to make a unique driver that serves all platforms.
And there goes my vacation and my shopping spree. With AB&B, we could rent a 4 bedroom home for a 7 days, for what it would cost us for two days in a hotel. Some of our savings allows us ot cook our meals, to leave the car parked, and to tour the city via Uber.
I guess the economy is too good, or the hotel industry got their lobby guys to spread some good will around.
Turns out the wage gap really is simply because of personal choices.
In other news, the leading cause of poverty (that is, people who *become* poor) is getting knocked up at a young age and having a bunch of children you cannot afford instead of completing your education and establishing a career.
Yet if you dare suggest things like delayed gratification, birth control, the fact that we all know where babies come from... well it's amazing how people will villify you for that. Even people who did it that way themselves!
The reason for not being able to complete an education is not because of having a child and being married, its because there is no available low cost government funded daycare as there is public funded schools.
In Quebec Canada, daycare started out more than 10 years ago at $7.00/day. Today, it is less than $10.00 per day/child (no food offered).
Oil is not used in the generating of energy for the electrical grid so how does a subsidized wind project show that oil is on the way out. Oil is used in heating via heating oil, but the alternative is natural gas which is far more efficient then electric heating. Natural gas is whats used (along with coal, nuclear, etc) in generating electricity...but natural gas != oil.
Finally...what happens when the wind is not blowing? The electrical grid requires a base level going through it and when its a calm night, you have no solar or wind power going into the grid.
Oil is out for new heating installations. In it's place is natural gas, ground-source heatpumps or electricity. And with all options except oil, the snow on the lawn will remain white until spring thaw arrives.
XP was an operating system that was used to create a black box. For example, a Casino slot machine, an ATM, or some other fixed task system. (Elevator management system). XP survived because it was stable and limited in use. It did not survive as a "office system host", because the newer software would not function on XP.
The thieves are spending the illgotten gains from the clients. The clients will never be able to recover the unauthorized charges or overcharges or services that were not ordered.
So, WF, as you have done in the past, and continue to do clandistinely, steal from others to pay this obligation
Indeed. The majority of people are self-centered, self-absorbed, and self-important. As such people are not interested in introspection, personal growth and change, they tend to also be petty and small-minded. Maybe it has always been this way. Generally, the workplace is the only place where I cannot easily avoid such people by choosing not to associate with them. There are no benefits to this -- it is only a source of stress. Also when the slightest power/authority is involved it makes all of this worse. Rather than responsible leaders, many workplaces are filled with petty tyrants whose only concern is playing politics and looking good.
By eliminating unnecessary social contact in the workplace we would gain much more control over our own social lives. It would make social contact a much more voluntary phenomenon, both in terms of quantity and quality. It would increase the tendency of "water seeks its own level".
Those who want lots of contact would find plenty of like-minded company, in fact they would find they are the majority. The only thing they would find lacking is the ability to impose their ways and their personality traits (i.e extraversion) on others. This is a Good Thing.
I can't imagine anyone having a problem with this, except maybe nosy busybodies and those with a thinly-veiled desire to control others. I guess the usual excuses would be used, ranging from "you should be forced to do X because I have decided it's for your own good", to those who are merely threatened by the fact that not everyone else is just like themselves.
Even with what you claim of individuals, man is a social animal. He needs the comfort to rub shoulders with peers, to exchange some thoughts in private, to enjoy a meal with a friend, and to learn from friends and offer help to friends.
No man is an island that can remain in isolation. There are the givers in life, and the takers in life, and they need each other. The generous man who gives to charity, vs the takers who build islands made from spoils of taking.
If you are in a relationship, can you live in a single room together with your partner for 24 hours per day.
I have watched individuals go through breakdowns, because of solitary work. It might have happened to me, but I chose to go into the office one day per week on the minimum. That way, I met my work at home peers, we ate lunch together and we felt human. The organization became real, and did not feel like an automaton.
Only if Paypal transferred you payment less commission to the vendor on time. Not 60 days later. When we used Paypal years ago, we had to deposit an amount above the selling price. The payment was made with the remainder on deposit for the subsequent purchase. That meant that they had that amount on deposit. We could not determine how to retrieve that overpayment. I don't know if that is still the case. It was about $10 dollars.
Hmm....large entity and we're at MS Office 2010....I don't see us moving from that and Win 7 for quite a long time to come.
No real reason to at this point....
There are several other software (wps.com) that is MS compatible, as well as the open source LibreOffice 6 version. I am mentioning the commercial products that work with Windows and with Linux.
Use salt-waterable plants to turn the Sahara desert green and you'll reach gigaton absorption. For perspective, the Sahara is about the size of the United States.
The Israelis recovered a country. For the past 70 years they have been planting trees, and converting desert to arable land. They use drip irrigation and they have fresh water extraction from the sea. They have sufficient fresh water to supply more than two cities.
This will give the imputus to have major state cities start their own fibre installation and their own internet service. All citizens would be able to use the city owned internet service at a much reduced cost, and even so the city would make a handsome profit.
There is trivial cost to transmit data, once the infrastructure is in place. The cost is in the preparation of data, not the transmission. American Internet users are paying much more than citizens from other countries.
LibreOffice6 has an experimental ribbon interface. I tested a early beta for a while. LO should look at wps (wps.com) and their ribbon interface. The WPS interface is based on QT
The wps.com free Linux product is fully compatible with MS's older office product. You can read/write in MS format. Hopefully LO will be as compatible as WPS for the same purpose.
Well, short of making them illegal, there'll always be a market for piston-engined/internal combustion-engined vehicles. They're so much fun to drive.
Daily driver for commuting/work/shopping? EVs for sure, but let's try to charge them off wind/solar please? Otherwise you're shifting the efficiency problem from your engine bay to the grid. I hate smug EV drivers boasting about "clean" driving. They get all flustered when I point out that grid-charging has all sorts of issues from coal-fired electricity.
Also, going out for a spin on the weekend? I prefer my motorbike, thanks. Perhaps I'll have to have it modified to run on bio-fuels.
Do note, the market for cars is world wide, and even if you exclude American and Europe, there is still a tremendous market for Asia and Africa, and even the middle east. The car market is driven by cost.
Intel needs there cheap labor to crush AMD by volume
Intel has stagnated, and lost the imagination to innovate. Further, it has a stagnant bureaucracy following the rule "We do it this way because we always did it this way".
Dumping employees is a cost cutting exercise, but not a creativity exercise. AMD had to fight to stay alive and to develop a superb set of products. Now you, "Intel" have to look at AMD and their management structure, and how they get things done, done right.

I think that he is entitled to the Geek Squad coming in, backing up his computer, and restoring his system back to what he had working with his data.

Better to move to where there is an abundance of snow in winter and rain in summer,
The wholesale price of the device is less than half the msrp. Someone is getting ripped off.
