School districts should be limited to pencils only... and, er, maybe paper... and, er, chalk... and, er, ... OMG!! Where does it end!!!

An app won't give you much anonymity. You need to start from the ground up with an OS that leaves no trace on the hardware and has good encryption and anonymity tools built in.
Here's a good start: TAILS

I got a really rude telemarketer call from a "government grants agency" wanting to give me money. I played along for a while but the guy caught on and ended the call with a sexist racist slur.

I'll be so dangerous driving down the road with my headlights flashing, wipers on, sunroof open and doors locked!
Now, if they could do the turn signals, they would really have something there.

I am not a business expert but agree that MS probably has a lot of dead wood and poorly managed employees.
Mass layoffs are one way to deal with this problem and this is what most companies do periodically.
However, it seems to me that it is a sign of a poorly managed company if they need to do mass layoffs. A well managed company would be continuously evaluating employees and their work and making adjustments to personnel requirements every month. It seems supremely stupid for a company to suddenly wake up one day and discover that it has an extra xx thousands of employees.
If a company is continuously adjusting personnel, it is also much easier on the employees since there are more opportunities to move employees to more appropriate jobs, re-train them for new tasks, or, failing that, provide comprehensive out-placement service. This would define a company which values human resources.
Unfortunately, these MS employees are likely to be unceremoniously dumped with minimal chance of re-employment.

We always assume Windows (to the point where most articles don't even mention it) and that is true again in this case.
It is useful to know which versions of Windows:

Public transit should be free.

ATT T-Mobile and resellers (at 7-11,etc) all offer SIM cards without contract.

I have a Carrier Infinity thermostat and you can program anything remotely as well as view all the setting and programs.

This Kickstarter project looks promising.

T-Mobile has free international data roaming and cheap calls.
ATT is terrible.

I have a BofA credit card in California.
I went to Seattle for the weekend and BofA blocked my credit card.
BofA is terrible.
I'm going to Europe in a few days. I called them to tell them I'm traveling. I don't have high expectations that they won't block my card again. I have other cards.

OK. I know nothing about 3D scanners but the subject of TFA and the others mentioned here all seem to be just stereo image capture. These might be useful for something but certainly not for duplicating the object in a 3D printer.
To me, real 3D captures an object from all sides... a 360 degree sphere. These 3D cameras just capture one side view and try to calculate depth of that side from stereopsis.
So... beyond making slides for my View-Master, what good it this?

If you would RTFA (I know... asking too much) you will see an actual photo before and after of the parking space. Before, there were no markings and after they painted big diagonal lines indicating "no parking".
