Windows 10 keeps forcing driver updates, which keeps fucking up my graphics drivers, and the only way that I've been able to find to bypass this is a registry hack to tell Windows Updater that my PC is on wifi while on ethernet, then to tell it the wifi connection is metered and to disallow updates on a metered connection.
The problem is that I don't want updates disabled, I want to APPROVE updates - and Windows 10 is a cunt about taking away choice.
I haven't done the registry hack yet because I shouldn't fucking have to hack my computer to make Microsoft stop breaking it.
Some privacy is better than no privacy. Google and Facebook might be the biggest data aggregators and sellers, but you can choose not to use them. You can't choose not to use your ISP. And there's not even competition to choose another ISP if the one you're using decides to collect and sell your information.
In other news, Moore's Law for War would defeat global conflict. We just need to halve killings every decade. In other news, Moore's Law for Rape would defeat global rape. We just need to halve rapes every decade. In other news, Moore's Law for would defeat . We just need to halve every decade.
When "researchers" point out obvious things like "Reducing carbon would defeat global warming they are philosophers.
Scientists would posit something with a body of evidence to bring new facts to bear on the world around them - they just provide data. Lawmakers would enact legislation to effect change within their body of influence. And if they're good ones, add enforcement. Philosophers make grand statements like, "If we do good things, good things will happen."
Also in other news, if people who make shitty things that they advertise and hype could prevent people from countering that advertising with reviews pointing out that it's a shitty product, they could fool more people.
Meaningful privacy laws would stop NSA overreach, warrantless wiretapping, and if solely about commercial interests........then it would target the big offenders of data collection and selling.
Google. Facebook. Oracle. Apple?
I thought that FCC ruling was empty in the first place because it was a charade of privacy protection. It's like Trump's "Let's stop the terrorists from getting into our country by putting a travel ban on muslim countries" that then proceeds to ban muslim countries where the terrorists DON'T come from.
I want privacy, but neither the FCC ruling about ISPs or the legislation to overturn it are meaningful. In fact, since Google and Facebook have extremely liberal leaders, and this helps maintain their monopoly control on data aggregation and selling - you could say this was a cleverly orchestrated plan.
We are trying to do to movies what we did to software with open source. Reduce its value so much that the people working in the industry struggle to survive. In a capitalist society if you dont pay cash for something you dont value it. We devalued software development by going from license fee based software to open source. Now we want to devalue entertainment by going from Studio funded blockbusters to all Indy movies made on shoestring budgets where the actors have to hold day jobs (Just like those contributing to open source have to hold day jobs)
Are you kidding? There are no shortage of people who will do things in front of a camera FOR FREE in the hopes that people will see them. Some are attention whores. Some are hobbyists. There are probably other categories.
Actually if people stopped killing people there would be more people. They would start killing each other at some point even if no guns were provided (see Rwanda).
For sure. More people always leads to ethnic cleansing genocide.
Misleading headline. Saying "Dig Once Bill Could Bring Fiber..." implies that there is currently a bill undergoing consideration. The article says that the same guy has been proposing it over and over for 8 years.
You could also say "If US Politicians stopped being twats, it could bring internet to people." Or "If people stopped killing people, the world would be better." Or...you get the picture.
It was because Trump promised something, anything. What did Hillary promise? Nothing.
That's not quite accurate.
Trump promised to build a wall, get immigration under control, make America great again, get everyone a free puppy, and anything else he thought the majority of Americans might want to hear. Chances of him delivering on his promises? I wouldn't take that bet....
Clinton promised to import immigrants, make America take its "fair share" of the trouble going on in Europe - something no one wants to replicate, given the hordes of troubled kids being bused in from South America - to expand government programs, raise our deficit enormously more than anyone else had ever even tried....chances of her delivering on her promises? Likely.
Except those aren't promises most people wanted to hear, which is why we have Trump instead of Clinton.
There is legal and there is ethical. Only people in the law profession put the former before the latter.
After all, everything slave owners did and the Third Reich (oh my Godwin!) was entirely legal at the time.
Paying more taxes is not ethical. Nor is it like slavery or nazis. Governments are necessary evils to maintain social contracts and civilization. Overreaching government is unethical. Government double-taxing is unethical.
And...corporate income tax is a dumb idea in the first place, when those funds have already been taxes through both income and sales.
Yes, 99.9% have a cell phone. But: 0.1% of a few million is still a lot of disgruntled customers.
Yeah?
Businesses would be THRILLED to have a 99.9% satisfaction rating - because there are ALWAYS going to be people who are upset about what they got / how they were treated/other. Professional complainers.
Examples of Trump's corruption and evil abound. So why give him a free pass on that but not Hillary. At least she's competent and not hateful in every other way too.
I didn't say that I give Trump a free pass. I said that given a choice between putting my dick in a blender, and walking through door #2 - which has a picture of evil clowns on it...I choose door #2.
As for Hilary's competence...she didn't lose the election because she was corrupt, or scandal-ridden, or sexism, or fake news, or Russian hackers, or any of the other reasons her fans claim. She lost because she and her staff were incompetent. Despite all of those scandals, criminal misdeeds, and accusations, half the country turned out to vote for her. She lost because of a HUGE cascade of absolutely stupid decisions during her campaign.
Then there's the well-publicized blunder of the millions of dollars approved for transfer from Clinton’s campaign for use by the DNC — which, under a plan devised by Brazile to drum up urban turnout out of fear that Trump would win the popular vote while losing the electoral vote, got dumped into Chicago and New Orleans, far from anywhere that would have made a difference in the election. So she loses the electoral vote but wins the popular vote...which has only been a meaningful metric for news organizations, not for our political process.
You remember HilaryCare? The same Hilary-attempted Obamacare predecessor that was SO bad that it led to Republicans sweeping up elections the following year? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
How about WhiteWater?
Point being - she's as bad as he is. They're both bad. Terrible. They were both the absolute worst candidates. And their respective parties decided to put them out in front of us and tell us to choose between an egotistical, racist, incompetent twat and an egotistical, racist, incompetent twat.
Leftists such as yourself have been shitting all over Republicans for decades now, without any justification. Just look at your comment. It's hyperbole and one unsubstantiated ad hominem attack after another. You attack and attack and attack people who have done absolutely nothing to you other than have higher standards and maybe have slightly different religious beliefs (which ends up being irrelevant in practice).
Yes, when people like you unjustifiably ridicule and insult and harass and demean millions upon millions of Americans who are actually decent, hard-working, industrious people, of course they'll turn against you politically. It's unbelievable how badly we've seen leftists treat their fellow Americans, especially when these other Americans really haven't done anything to the leftists.
And before you start claiming I'm a Republican, or that I'm one of these other Americans, or that I'm a Trump supporter, let me inform you that I'm not. I'm just an impartial observer who has seen what has gone on for many years now, and it's quite clear who the aggressors are (leftists) and who the victims are (centrist and rightists who generally just want to be left alone).
Well said - sadly, I have no mod points.
I'm fiscally conservative and socially liberal - I don't splurge pointlessly, but I find homeless people and take them out to eat, or to get groceries. Government needs a 90% shrinkage and to stop micromanaging our lives. I voted for Trump - despite hating everything about him - because I saw Hilary as the paragon of corruption and evil. I voted for Trump well-aware that I was voting to put a long-standing Democrat (claiming that he's suddenly Republican) in the white house.
This election was Democrat vs. Democrat. One is a batshit crazy mafia criminal. The other is a batshit crazy immature failed businessman.
I figured I'd give Trump the chance to show the country that he isn't as morally deficient as Hilary. I don't care what happens - there was nothing good that was going to come from either of them. I felt like this election was less "Trump won" and more "This is a lesson to running for office while being a traitor."
It's all a show at this point. Either way...throw the tags away because they're divisive for no reason. The Republicans didn't win, the Democrats did. That was the POINT of this election - to make it Democrat vs. Democrat, to insure Hilary got elected. But she's so corrupt and pleased with her immunity from prosecution that the nation voted in the monkey just to spite her.
We're all on the same team now. Enjoy the ride. It's going to be strange, and ugly, and probably painful, but it will certainly be DIFFERENT, and that's at least something new.

I don't think this can be hidden for more than 4-5 years before the bottom falls out. Then the drastic spending spending cuts will get made.
Because the Federal level politicians and bureaucrats will need to really start making big cuts in the entitlement programs just to save their own pay checks and retirements.
One last item, this is a bi partisan problem (Dems and Repubs) they have diverted the funds paid in for 50+ year to spend on other stuff!
But it is going to happen if we don't start cutting big time now!!
Seconded.
All of us are expected to make prudent financial decisions, balance our checkbooks, figure out monthly expenses and income, and dole out money such that we can pay our mortgages, bills, food, tuck away an emergency fund - all the little pieces that make up the job of adulting.
It's ridiculous that the only thing our elected officials can agree on is that they're going to spend more money than we have - so much more money than we have that it's a hopeless spiral that no one has to take responsibility for because bad policy decisions don't get politicians in the kind of trouble that regular adults do.
So let's default. Follow Greece and friends. We need some ridiculous austerity measures.
I'm waiting for the Republicans to count robots as 3/5th of a person.
You must be misremembering slavery.
You're waiting for Democrats to count robots as 3/5 of a person. Republican abolitionists will make waves about how robots deserve the same rights as everyone else. Democrats will start a war over it. Republicans will win. Democrats will realize that they can get more political power by sucking up to the robots, and try to relabel themselves "Party for the Robots." Republicans ignore the Democrat spincrafting. Democrats develop robot unions as bloc-voting appartus, get teamsters, trucks, and robot vehicles to pick up robots en masse and deliver them to the voting polls to vote Democrat. Slowly, Republicans begin losing power and constitutional meaning takes a backseat to pandering to the lowest common denominator. Fast forward 100 years, and there will be a new Republic Robot shouting "Make America Great Again! Enforce robot manufacturing requirements!"
History repeats itself. And it is repeating itself.
18-25 years of financial drain, emotional stress, and missing free time, MIGHT lead to an end-of-life benefit of ~2 year extension.

I don't regret having my son at all...he's grown up to be a good person and I'm proud of who he's become..
Of course you don't regret having your song. Having a child alters your neurological pathways to become more nurturing, which is how the human race continues. There's an ample body of work out there on it. If I'd had kids, I have no doubt that the same biological changes would have affected me and made me strive to raise my child well. But I didn't - and am financially, emotionally, and free-time(ly) glad that I didn't.
