They are NOT considering it. They are considering putting it on the books. There is a difference there. French gov already spies on everything that they can.
On their own citizens against their own laws. Then it would make no sense to change the laws.
Also. You are making a strong claim.. Prove it.
Really? Which nation(s) goverment do you think is not doing all that they can to stop terrorists as well as enemy nations?
None, but that has nothing to do with uselessly wasting resources on violating your citizens privacy which is what we are discussing.
The citizens vote to elect the two parliament chambers members, representing proportionally the states and the peoples. Then the parliament (all members of the two chambers) vote to appoint the 7 Federal Council members. There can appoint any citizen of the country even it's not a candidate. As strange as it look like, yes this has happened: a citizen without high view on the politic can be boosted up to the highest level in a few hours. The main goal is to form a stable Federal Council with a proportional diversity of the leading parties. Then 7 Federal Council members decide by them self there minister assignation between them.
That is how democracy works. That is no different from any other country in Europe. You still need to get around the problem of selecting a person the parliament can vote on. They can't vote on everybody.
Elect yes. But appoint? No, how would a group appoint. The way it works in most countries is that the head of government appoints and the parliament approves.
It's only a democratic country because there can vote for the king, but the king choose the ministers and the ministers can do anything. The parliament is a joke to keep some credibility that some discussion exists. The citizen are left with there problems and never take seriously.
The french president have had a lot of power since thr 50s, but appointing the government (or administration as Americans put is) is alwsys the primary responsibility of the head of government. The same happens in all states. Prime ministers to presidents all do that.
I think your bullshit is somewhat undercut by being under an article about another country considering doing what the US is doing, and you claim everyone does.
This is more of the rule than the exception in most languages that I know.
English is my fourth language, and when I started getting serious about speaking it properly, I realized two things:
- I had been pronouncing many words incorrectly, and to this day, 25 years later, I sometimes realize that I had the wrong pronunciation all along. Sometimes it is because I am familiar with the word in the original language, but it is pronounced differently in English, and sometimes it is because the pronunciation disobeys English rules.
- Many native speakers have no idea how to pronounce words that they have never heard.
But in Bulgarian, Russian, French, Spanish, Hungarian, Polish, German, there are very, very few words that you would mispronounce if you see them written down, as long as you know the applicable rules. Some of the languages above (not all) are also very easy to spell, because as long as you know the correct pronunciation, there is only one possible spelling.
Most of the languages have rythm and emphesis rules that you have to know, and are not written down. Getting that wrong is as confusing to a native speaker as choosing the wrong vowel sound in English.
Btw. The quick way to figuring out how close the writen and spoken languages are, is to check how old the written language is. If the written language is several hundred years old, then it is going to be rather different from the spoken language that has evolved faster in the meantime.
Did you just completely miss the first part of AC's post? Or ignore it? Simpleton.
There was only one line. And the topic was posix compliant fork implementation. Posix is a lot of APIs Linux supports many of them, and Windows not as many but quite a few.
And that means? The US criminal justice system is seriously fucked up? OK... maybe you have a point
Yep.
Do any of your politicians have even the smallest clue how the internet works? Trying to age restrict porn will be as effective as a law banning the sun from rising tomorrow,
Apparently the "experts" are having brain trouble. Must just be a british thing.
Ironic, seeing how systemd is not posix compliant....
What does systemd have to do with fork API?
They managed to make it stick. That way Microsoft brought graphical UI to the masses, just like Apple brought smartphones to the masses with the iPhone though smartphones had existed more than half decade already.
Thats pretty retarded. You seem to forgotten everyone else with nuclear weapons. What Iran could do with nuclear weapons is act in a way that would otherwise get them invaded. The weapon itself can't by used due to MAD.
Software patents are explicitly not allowed in US either. It was the US patent court that after it was established as being outside the normal courts that unilaterally decided to allow software patents. That is what people are afraid will happen in Europe.
