I'm the same way. I got my gmail account back when you had to be invited. I was going to use it as a spam catcher account but I noticed quickly that no matter what I did nothing bad was really coming through. I've used it as my primary account for over 8 years now, and I think maybe 4-5 emails made it through.
>"As Wikpedia notes, OOXML (Office Open XML) is not to be confused with OpenOffice.org XML."
And don't think Microsoft didn't make that ridiculous name for the *exact* purpose of confusing consumers between the two.
"So, Mr Lincoln, how was the play otherwise?"
That's an ecosystem like Europe was an ecosystem during the dark ages.
SJWs?
super java writers? what does SJW mean?
>"95% of doctors believe patients are put at risk when doctors work while sick. Despite that, 83% of respondents said they had "come to work with symptoms"
If they are following universal precautions, it won't matter if they are sick or not... (yes, I work in healthcare). If they don't know this, they are not doing the right things.
not like always, just 10 years ago it was 2 days.
Fingerprints should not be used for biometrics. Period.
Using fingerprints and allowing a third-party to have access to that registration data and tracking information is unacceptable. Once you give this data to the government or big business, it will NEVER be erased or restricted, regardless of claims or laws- it will go into huge databases and shared between entities and agencies and used however they want for as long as they want.
There is only one safer and practical biometric I know of- that is deep vein palm scan. That registration data cannot be readily abused. It can't be latently collected like DNA, fingerprints, and face recognition can. You have to know you are registering/enrolling when it happens. You don't leave evidence of it all over the place. When you go to use it, you know you are using it every time. And on top of all that, it is accurate, fast, reliable, unchanging, live-sensing, and cheap. If you must participate in a biometric, this is the one you should insist on using.

This technology could be put in portable devices like phones by simply including an IR camera. It won't be as fast/small/close as using fingerprints, so it won't be as convenient. But safety, privacy, and security are diametrically opposed to convenience.... it is worth it.
>"Let's step back and look at the available browsers, shall we?"
And "available" depends on your OS. IE and Safari are not an option under Linux (not that we would use either if they were). Opera really is a joke still. So that leaves the anti-friendly spyware called Chrome or the bloated Firefox from your list. There are some other piddly forks of Firefox, and a few obscure webkit browsers, but from my experience none of them are stable or great.
Brilliant! You're arguing to reinstate the bans against interracial marriage.

>" they'll be asked to make Yahoo their default search engine on Chrome (and Internet Explorer, for what it's worth)"
I guess that means Firefox is the best choice... yet again!
Now, there may actually be a very few people who do genuinely have the problem, but when you come to do the studies, you sample a large number of people. You do the statistics. You do not conclude that there is no link - studies like these cannot show that there is *no* link. You conclude - correctly - that there is no statistically significant link. But there still might (or might not) be a real problem for a very few people.
This is like people who claim they have ESP and magical abilities. If there were even ONE legitimate case, they could simply walk into a casino and repeatedly win multi-million dollar wins until every casino on the planet bans them.
All it takes is ONE "electrosensitive" who can consistently answer yes/no to whether an antenna is broadcasting. Much like ESP and other supernatural abilities, so far they do not exist.

>"We are a tired, stressed and overworked nation
Part of the reason is the low number of people actually working full time... and they have to pay the taxes to cover all those who don't, and those who don't earn enough to cover their cost to society, and the rich who seem to have the means to protect their income.
Oh yeah, let's just throw some more on the national debt to cover it, raise the minimum wage, and start up some more socialized programs and entitlements, that will fix it....
