The advantages are those which aren't listed: the appliances will *also* send that recipe and ingredient list to your HMO so they can jack up your rates and to advertisers who can then send you targeted advertising.
Oh, you wanted features for individuals? Well, the main feature is that eventually you won't be able to purchase a device *without* IoT
If you need to use COM components, and you don't want to require admin rights, you register them in HKEY_CURRENT_USER instead of HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT. After that, it just works.
The sad part is, it would have not have taken any more time to Google that than to find how to disable UAC through the installer.
This is the equivalent of the teacher leaving the grade book unattended on his table instead of locking it in the desk and exits the room for a moment, and a student sneaks over to it and pencils in a lewd picture on the cover.
Actually, there's a better analogy I can think of. The teacher leaves a spare key under the doormat of their home, tells the entire class about it, and then one (or more) of the kids gets the idea to place a lewd poster or life-size cut-out just inside the entrance, so the teacher will see it upon opening the front door.
It's still stupid for the teacher to do so, but the kids are also still trespassing on the teacher's property.
Now, when I was growing up, doing either would have gotten you suspended. A felony charge is a bit excessive for a harmless prank done by a stupid kid.
That's actually for the best. It is never in your best interests to air grievances in an exit interview.
The best-case scenario is that they might pay lip service to your grievances and ultimately ignore them. After all, if they were going to fix any of the problems, they would have done so before you decided to leave.
The worst-case scenario is that you've now burned all bridges with your current company and any future companies your boss and co-workers ever move to.
When I want to backspace over something that's indented with tabs, there's no way to know how many times I will have to hit backspace. Are there 4 spaces and a tab so I have to hit backspace 5 times? Or just a tab, so I have to hit it once?
I've simply gotten into the habit of showing white space characters in any editor I use, so I always know exactly what to expect.
Celebrities deal with what the majority thinks. Everyone else has to deal with the people around them, whose beliefs and actions can significantly deviate from the public at large. For a regular person, your sexual preference or religion (just to name two examples) can still invite prejudice and violence in some areas of the country.
Given how quickly and severely those prejudices can change, I would just assume keep my privacy. Just look at the reaction to those following Islam pre- and post-9/11. While my particular tastes and idiosyncrasies may not put me in any danger today, I'll make no bets about tomorrow.
other than that: the keyboard i have seen which people absolutely swear by is - don't laugh - the old IBM AT keyboard! apparently you can still get them. they're noisy, but people who use them don't care. that tactile response - the click - appears to be crucial to ast and wrist-stress-free long-term usage.
IBM Model M keyboards last forever. Sure, they're noisy, and they're heavy, but unless you go out of your way to break one, they last decades. In fact, you are more likely to replace the keyboard because it's input port has disappeared on your new computer than because it has stopped functioning.
The US, on the other hand, largely follows a philosophy of punishment (in concept if not enshrined in law); the idea is that the fear of prison as a punishment will keep people out of mischief.
Of course, we as a country also like to ignore the fact that we have the largest prison population in the world, which disproves that idea rather handily. Note that it is not merely the largest per-capita. We have more than twice as many people in jail as any other country save China, who we still beat by around 50%.
3. Bicyclists
That one goes both ways. I see plenty of entitled cyclists asserting right of way when they don't have it, but I have also seen a number of times where drivers are either oblivious or malicious to bicyclists, nearly running them down. This includes cases where there are bike lanes and the cars feel the need to cross into said lanes for nothing more than getting around another car or running through crosswalks despite the signal and despite having a red.
tl:dr: people are dicks, especially on the road
Many people are unenthusiastic about their work.
