In the case of Argentina it sounds like they're flat out lazy. How can you not see a house built on a lot that was supposedly vacant? You have to plat the lot, take out permits presumably and then have inspections. Maybe in Argentina they don't have building codes? I doubt that but somebody isn't doing their job. In the US my google satellite view of my house shows a car I sold 7 years ago. Time to buy camo tenting and drape it over every square inch of my exposed yard area, or at least where I'd park a car. Lazy is when now during re-appraisals (which we go through annually here) means that they have to have an up to date photo of the property to assess "condition" We caught them last year using a 6 year old Google Street View image. That's lazy and I already pay well enough for these morons to just drive around and get up to date information, it's in the tax law for my state and we caught them not doing their job. Lazy fucks. These are the same retards who valued a $15million dollar estate (which was being sold for almost three times that) for $6million on the books. Fair? No. Lazy, yes.

I don't know about you but any drones flying overhead become skeet practice. There's no need for any government to use this shit on their citizens. The root cause here is taxation and I get that but governments around the world need to get out of peoples' collective pockets. Property taxes are the worst kind of regressive tax because it taxes you on something that you paid taxes on to obtain. Sure, if a lot is being developed that the government doesn't know about, that's a bigger issue at least here in the US. Building codes etc. may be violated and it could be unsafe. If that's happening in Argentina then its very poor and lazy government workers who didn't catch that in the first place. Building a pool or a deck with money I'm taxed already when earning, then turning around and taxing me for the added valuation for that improvement amounts to theft. Because of that kind of mentality when my neighbor builds a $70,000 pool, deck, outdoor kitchen etc. The dumbshit taxing authorities say that improvement is only worth $20,000 (real case here) and tax him only based on that amount not what he spent. When the guy goes and sells his house goes for $100+K more than mine because of the improvement. That then causes the retarded taxing authority to say now that my house is worth $100K more too and will tax me on that valuation. That's called tax creep where the government raises your taxes based on what your neighbors do. How fair is that? Not at all.

Its stale. I've got news for you Google Street View and Satellite images can be years old. If I were relying on it for up to date information then I'd be mistaken. My house on street view was taken in 2010. A lot has changed since then.

You haven't taken anything but you have deprived the powers that be of being able to tax you for something which you purchased with taxed funds. Property taxes to me are one of the evil problems we have. Considering the construction crews who built it payed income tax as well as the materials probably all had taxes on those including sales taxes. Governments these days aren't happy unless they squeeze every last penny out of you.

Google Street View, Google Satellite View are all now being used by lazy local governments.

that's Xen and Xen != VMWare but it works for about 99% of the workloads out there. From what I received it's a cold restart not a simple reboot. Periodically they upgrade hardware/software and once a month we go through a cold restart an all of our AWS instances. It's easy with the right tools.

Come on Microsoft, stop the horseshit and just hire workers from within the US. You fucksticks have had it your way too long.

I don't know, all I've known is what's been written about it. That and the IOS 8 foul ups.

I understand the metallurgy however I don't think folks laying out $600 plus for a phone were thinking that it would crease so easily. Phones bending like that under normal use, not abuse, isn't something that people were expecting. As for software bugs they happen to everybody, it's nice to see that Apple for once is caught in a face palm moment.

Walled garden has weeds!

Need mod points +1 Funny

I've had Android devices for quite awhile, I even have CM11 on a couple and no brick problems. Other bugs to be sure, but no bricks.

The world is in a panic! Apple fucked up, no biggie oh wait all those new iPhones bending and now IOS 8 taking a shit! Yeah it can happen to them too fanboys!

4chan, emma? who cares.

Naw, I wouldn't put my chances up to an arbitrary decision by a judge. The constitution needs to be extended to take into consideration the modern world. Metadata is one thing but actual contents need to be protected information for private parties wherever they are stored and who is the trustee.
