How do we play or use Flash when we have to? I understand it is old, but there was a lot of content made for it. Some of it needs to still be used or enjoyed.
They trumped up the charges on him so he they could use him as a bargaining chip. The can now offer to release him in a big publicity show in exchange for Butina, another one of their people being held in the US, easing of sanctions, or something else to Russian interests elsewhere. It would look like the Trump administration liberated a marine veteran and Putin can get whatever he wants.
I would not say that. Like he said, working while going to university is not feasible. But if you take advantage of the free tuition to get a STEM degree, you can get a better paying job than without a degree, pay back the money, and still have a better job and career. Plus you are a better and more rounded person after having studied. It's a net win.
No, that is really false. People who have scientific training or who have studied rhetoric are far more aware of logical fallacies in their own arguments. Maybe it is somewhat true for the general public, even though 99% still sounds like hyperbole.
Wikipedia is good for cut and dry boring topics like "What is the pythagorean theorem" but anything else that is at all controversial exists in a quantum state between true and false information and/or bias towards the extremes.
I had a disagreement about a page edit. It went back and forth in an edit war for a while and the discussion page ended with a user just obstinately refusing to change his position--and then threatening anybody with bans and deletions if they dared disagree again. He was clearly in a minority but he had moderator/admin access and used it to enforce his own views.
It's *NOT* an encyclopedia that "anyone can edit" it's a webpage that a few elites with admin powers can bully to say what they want and everybody else can do trivial grunt work at best.
I agree. I have watched one side build this strawman "SJW femin-NAZI" image that they attack mercilessly over and over without actually addressing any points.
It saddens me that the other side has constructed a "MRA" strawman as well.
We need to realize that the common enemy is unwanted baggage from traditions, religion, and culture. We have issues that affect every one. LIsten to one another. Swap the words around and see your opponents arguments are mirroring your own.
Will be like The Expanse, where politics and greed are the same, just with better technology and larger scales, or like Star Trek, a post-scarcity meritocracy where replicators can make anything you want and internal strife is rare?
In the U.K., there are about 5 broadband ISPs in most major metropolitan areas. They don't need net neutrality because the invisible hand of the market is able to do its job. In the United States, most areas are lucky to have the choice of 2 and some only get 1. How is that free market capitalism?
Let's annoy our customers by taking away the lyrics feature! -- Good one! What else?
Let's start requiring home addresses so we can sell their info to marketers. -- Great! This is going to make people love us. We'll tell them we are going all Draconians on all family members have to have the same addresses. Screw their parents in the military and kids in college.
Cheap guns people can make in their garage is the nightmare of the gun manufacturing companies.
Watch for the NRA to come out as the biggest opponent of it. They will use some verbal gymnastics to avoid the 2nd Amendment issue and denounce this as an affront to "responsible gun ownership" but really it will be because it threatens their corporate sponsors.

The point is that it is being bombarded by trolls or bots to appear more negative than what it actually is.
The SJWs (Super Jesus Warriors) strike again.
It works fine and has been one of the best reasons to get an Android over an iPhone X.
Is there way to read the one article without getting a subscription to the whole newspaper?

MS Exec #1 : A stable OS that works well means none of our customers will need to buy another OS from us.
MS Exec #2: That is why it needs to die.

The FCC is sending a big FU to American citizens. This administration gets more awful all the day. When are we going to hit bottom barrell?

Yep. exactly this.

Every couple of years somebody says that "Moore's Law is ending" and then it doesn't.
I propose we call this Borehd's Law.

Has been changed, to be really good at hiding the evil.
And the proof of this is where?

I'm guessing 80%. They rest are cat videos.
We are hemorrhaging cash. What should we do?

Hey, down with the federal government! It is states rights.
Unless it is something I disagree or will anger my donors, then it's illegal!
My extensive research using Dungeons & Dragons more than 4 people can hold a conversation just fine if everybody agrees on the topic.
This is a good ruling, but don't rely on that alone to protect your privacy. Use TOR and/or a VPN.
It seems every few years there is another announcement that Amiga is returning from the dead.
