This is capitalism at its very best! I'm happy to see that Verizon is being humbled. Still, it's no match for T-Mobile and MetroPCS. T-Mobile's network is getting better by leaps and bounds. Verizon's offer still isn't very compelling.
Disney is a corporation and should stay out of education matters. Disney should not be telling us how our lives should be run. I'm personally sick of the hubris of these corporations dictating or wants and needs. Fuck you, Disney! I liked MGM and Warner cartoons better anyways.
I honestly thought Edward Snowden might use OpenBSD because it is more secure than Linux. The allegations of backdoors in the IPSEC stack were proven to be false during an intensive security audit by the OpenBSD team. The OpenBSD team regularly audits their code and is transparent about bugs found. But, I digress, I am an OpenBSD fanboi. OpenBSD powers my router/gateway, server, desktop, and laptop. In my world, if it is capable of running OpenBSD, it does.
I am not a Trump supporter but I am definitely anti H1-B visa and offshoring. The Indian firms are wrong as there is plenty of talent in America capable of writing excellent software. Conversely, I have seen very poor software come out of India that was not only unstable but replete with spelling and grammar errors on the user interface. Some stuff was so pooly written, that friends of mine have told me that they ended up re-writing large portions thereby negating any savings. The only reason the Indian IT firms are calling foul is because they're going to lose money and it isn't foul because the Indians engage in protectionism for their economy. They have very high import taxes.... sky high to as much as 25%. So the Indians get no sympathy from me whatsoever.
Avaya is becoming increasingly irrelevant in today's world. Their phones are reasonably good but the PBX and backend systems are clunky and terrible. I've personally helped get a few small businesses Avaya phones working with Asterisk and SipXCom. They work pretty well.
This is just another example of the greed and avarice of the wealthy. Zuckerberg is no different than any other billionaire. Just another rich asshole.
It takes a special kind of asshole to attack a library; a place where people go to learn and access the internet. Why go after one of the poorest resources and attack those that have the least to give? Go after the fucking fortune 500 companies but not a fucking library. One only hopes that anonymous could turn the tables on these slimy thieves.
Donald Knuth is an elitist. It is not necessary to have a background in mathematics to write software. I taught myself PHP and I certainly don't have any kind of mathematics background whatsoever. It isn't dumbing down as he claims. It's about creating opportunities. If you can code and you can do it well without mathematics, so be it. The math side is for those that want to do research. I work in the real world....
This is a rather foolish maneuver because there are more choices for wireless service now than there has ever been. Prepaid phone service no longer has the stigma that was once attached to it so the large tier 1 carriers have to be careful about raping the consumer's wallet. MetroPCS has partially-subsidized phones and Tracfone has an equipment lease program. Neither company charges an activation fee and their monthly service charges are inclusive of taxes and fees. Unless you travel overseas, there is almost no reason to go postpaid at all because you can get a good deal on prepaid family plans.
The much vaunted Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority is still stuck in the 20th century as far as fare collection, let alone having charging stations or mobile hotspots. But then Trump is going to make everything... just great. It'll be just great. Puke!
I'm not a millennial so I'm behind the times when it comes to apps. I've never heard of this Chinese Communist selfie app but it doesn't take an app to do a selfie. You've got an Android or iPhone builtin app to do it for you. It even lets you easily share it to Facebook. Who the hell really needs an add-on selfie app?
Rudy Giuliani has no idea what FreeBSD even is. He probably thinks it's someone that wants what he calls a handout. On the part of FreeBSD being insecure, the article is just wrong. It has far fewer holes than Linux
I think this may spur on people to do it themselves on a smaller scale. In parts of rural UK, this is already happening. A group of people got together and decided to hell with muni or corporate, they're going to do it themselves.
As I've been told by Virginians themselves, "In the Commonwealth of Virginia, there ain't nothing common wealth about it. You're either poor or got too much money to play with."
Geek Squad tends to be predatory on their customers and constantly upsells based on fear of what is unknown to the customer. I can undercut them significantly, still make money, and not resort to dirty tricks.
Well, she killed off a lot of the talent by completely closing the work from home privileges that many of the employees held. That was the beginning of the end for Yahoo as we knew it.
Just what the every day Chinese people need is another branch of law enforcement. This is going to effect the poor whom probably cook outdoors to feed their families. Perhaps they might need a car or some other form of vehicles to get by. Will the Chinese Environmental Police round them up and send them to labor camps?
Sometimes the best defense is offense. Time to turn up the heat on the gaslighter. Of course you could always leave but it seems like there is at least one gaslighting asshole in every company.
I have a gaslighter the taste of their own medicine. I thoroughly enjoyed watching the gaslighter squirm.

The human resources department is always the first out of the for and headed to the bar for happy hour.

Why not just vote to end the program

More entitlements given to the wealthy. Looks like Virginia is going to practice more wealthcare.

I hope that Uber dies and with each loss they sustain, I cheer. The company cheats its drivers out of so much. Uber is just another predatory company.

A yahoo email address was my first official email. Melissa Mayer ran the company into the ground and she is gonna get a golden parachute.

I hope the sue for profit industry gets shutdown.

I guess we can start calling Facebook "Facecrook" now. After all, isn't Facebook stealing our data and now other people's ideas?
