It's a trade-off: lower potential rent but more hassles from the owner/manager. If you are retired or unemployed, you may figure you have time to haggle with and nag them.
Some places have "rent control", which is limits how much your rent can be raised per year.
If you are not seen as profitable by the owner, then they have an incentive to jerk you around so that you leave and get replaced by a profitable tenant.
If you are a good tenant and not under rent control, normally the owner has an incentive to keep you because your replacement could be a jerk/flake without paying them more than you did.
Houses have their own downside: you pay for anything that breaks, you have to arrange for repairs, you have take care of landscaping, broken fences, electrical glitches, etc. And the bigger the house, the more that can break or rot or be eaten by termites. And they are more likely to be robbed.
One shudders to think what the mind who thought up that idea thinks of Android.
Indeed. What's an example of a truly innovative AND useful idea for any smart-phone of late?
I suspect the next "game changer" will be a UI that is controlled by moving your hands in the air. Image recognition and parallax (3D) cameras will read hand signals so that one can navigate and scroll around easier without having to touch the phone with both hands. Call it the "symphony conductor UI" or SCUI.
Or, "Borg-lite" interfaces directly into the brain. Research suggests that "deep" implants are not necessary. "We are Apple*, resistance is futile..."
* Or Google, Skynet, MS, Gubmint, Illuminaughty, etc.
The problem is not going away, just changing. Just because the system allows huge (deep) paths and file-names doesn't mean people will know how to use them. It may confuse them enough that they cannot find or manage their files, and complain to the help desk.
It's like building a pickup truck that can accept giant tires. Fools will put 40-foot tires on their trucks to be big-shots or because somebody told them it's good, and crash into regular folks.
I'd like to see some customization option, such as a little slide-out section that allows one to pick what kind of jacks they want. Apple could charge say an extra $30 for non-default or extra jacks, and make a profit on that aspect. Win-win!
Israel would be a better counter-argument than Iraq, per Crimea. We didn't sanction Israel for swiping land, unlike Russia, and in fact give them various forms of assistance.
That being said, two wrongs still don't make a right. Land swiping is land swiping and those who do/support it are jerks. May God/Matrix-admin spank all 3 of us.
I have to agree in this case. If you need more than 260, you are probably doing something stupid, and the few cases where it's not stupid are overshadowed by the vast majority that are.
finally tracked down an original keyboard from the Lorenz machine used to encode top-secret messages between Hitler and his general. It was selling on eBay for 10 pounds, advertised as an old machine for sending telegrams.
No, the insane/clueless here are the Debian developers who are deciding to turn this feature on by default. The insanity is in deciding that this behavior is what everyone wants
When you pick a default setting, you have to make a guess about what users and/or software designers want. Without expensive surveys, that's not necessarily an easy decision.
Imagine a China that switches from producing a lot of engineers to producing a lot of mba's and lawyers, spending most of their time "synergizing" and suing each other and other countries?
Well, when most of the work ends up being done by A.I. or $2/hr engineers in Timbuktu, then MBA fluff is where the money and jobs still are. That is until somebody figures out an A.I. PHB.
"Synergy synergy, Will Robinson, Synergy synergy!"
Call the IG's office. It's not my interpretation, it's theirs.
I don't want interpretative opinions, I want to see the written rules that they used to produce those opinions. Opinions are like assholes: everyone has one.
Now, let's do this one step at a time rather than jump around between sub-topics:
For those using the "regular" office server/system for their work email, how were those emails archived in a compliant way?
As best I can tell, her argument has been similar to, "smashing yourself in the head with a hammer is good for you because the first smash makes a puffy bruise that pads the second smash".

Troll recursion.

I'm looking forward to the day we can tell the Middle East suppliers to shove it.
Maybe NASA can find the Apollo 11 tapes on eBay.

Instead of the stick, Microsoft will now try the carrot.
Could it be Mr. Nadella is actually a bigger dick than Gates?
Is that possible?
So, there seems to be a lot of "guilty" people.

It was probably a student project, not a gov't sponsored site. I doubt the NK gov't gives a fuck.
What's the safe language then?
CEO of co specializing in Topic X wants everybody to learn Topic X early and often.
Dow Chemical probably wants chemistry taught in 4th grade also.
Office of the Secretary is comprised of roughly a dozen people:

They all printed out paper to archive?

Oh, but there are other strong contenders.
Oh great, more fuel for Ann Coulter's nutty claim that radiation is good for you.

So the one from Sicromoft is not legitimate?
