ANY democrat bill is blocked because Obama may look effective if he got something past. It was a bloody plank of the republican party to do this for christ sakes!
Yes, and it's quite sad to see that type of petulant, childish behavior coming from adults. That is how children behave. When coming from statesmen who are (in theory) representatives of this country it is downright tragic.
The order threatens sanctions against those (including US residents) who engage in cyberattacks and espionage activities that threaten US interests at home and abroad.
Now that I think about it that sounds more like the NSA than Mr. Snowden.
We have already wired the entire country. Twice. Once for phone and again for cable.
Almost right. Once for electricity and then for phone. There are many places still without without cable lines and will probably never get them now that TV signals are digital.
That being said, you shouldn't need a cable to get good quality internet. If I were King for a day, I'd mandate ubiquitous and free wireless for all.
Cancelling Comcast was an obscenity laden 45 minute long ordeal, but I couldn't be happier.
Quitting Comcast is easy. Just stop paying any bills they send you. They'll quit you.
What the fuck sort of unit is an Oklahoma?
An Oklahoma is where the wind comes sweepin' down the plain, And the wavin' wheat can sure smell sweet, When the wind comes right behind the rain.
OOOOOO-klaHOma...
If you lack morals to the extent you would consider working for the NSA you'll find it much more lucrative to sell your soul to Wall Street instead.
Wow that article is like reading an Onion parody. To be clear, the article states websites were blocked on advisory by the "Anti Terrorism Squad." Allow me to cut and paste the entire quote because it is so stunning everyone should see it.
"These [sites] are all providing very dangerous kind of cut and paste services..You can take code, cut it, paste it, remove it, delete it," said one government official who requested anonymity.
That just blows my mind.
My experience with Rosegarden is that it SIGSEGV's a lot. To be fair to the Rosegarden devs, the times that I actually debugged the issue I found bugs in the underlying QT library, so I can't "blame" Rosegarden.
Still, it has to be said that I spent much more time debugging than producing music in Linux. in order to get any actual work done, I have to dual-boot and use Cubase. I say that regrettably as that is the only reason that I keep a Windows partition around and I would love to have a robust set of audio tools on Linux.
If you haven't already, check out guitarix, too. It lets you simulate different amps and effects. It seems to work well and it's a lot of fun to play with.
Did they test with dumb regular users who don't understand or don't know better, or did they test people who actually know what those security warnings mean and the real consequences of ignoring them?
Hold on, TFA says they note a decrease in visual processing. Perhaps the decrease in visual processing is because the user is using another part of their brain to process the new information, and to appropriately decide what the best response is.
They also note an "overall" decrease after repeated exposures to the same message, but that's what we do; we learn from experience. That's a feature, not a bug.
So if facebook allowed nudity that is past the FCC standard, then it would go downhill fast.
Heaven forbid we might find nudity on the internet.
Anyone can make an omelet with eggs. The trick is to make one with none.
