Facts hurt your feelings? All that shit is true and that should tell you something. That you think they're talking points shows that you have no idea what's actually going on with your government. And it's something that a foreigner like me already knows about.
Well yes, I suppose you are irony impaired. Or maybe the ACs who replied don't know the meaning of the word irony:
"noun: irony
the expression of one's meaning by using language that normally signifies the opposite, typically for humorous or emphatic effect."
Do you take that to mean that I believe 50% should be women? Can you not see the last sentence? Sorry you are so impaired. Maybe you should go back to Reddit.
Look at what's happening in colleges and universities. You've got radical leftists and radical feminists pushing for racial quotas instead of merit. Even several universities have come out with their "meritocracy is a microaggression" bullshit. AKA University of California campuses. Surprise, those young, kids who want to be protected from everything...
Judging by the names of the contributors there are people from around the world. By 'people' I mean men, males, not females. Shouldn't there be a law that requires 50% female participation in the open software movement? We take Google, Microsoft & Apple to task for their lack of diversity
In case you are irony impaired, this is an observation that has more to do with the real world than the world of open or any other software. Women seem to have other priorities.
Science fiction sometimes has a theme in which someone wants to die but is prevented from doing so. Often by law, sometimes by some magical immortality gene. It's technically illegal to commit suicide in many places, with or without help.
I'm of two minds. Suppose your employer considers you essential to her business; takes a life insurance policy on you and surrounds you with protection to prevent any 'accident'. You aren't allowed near any sharp objects. You are a wage slave (if not a sex slave), an investment, and whether you want to live or die is irrelevant. You live to serve the machine as long as technology can keep you alive.
The right to die is critical in a free society. For whatever reason, no power should intrude. Sure, offer counseling, try to minimize the reasons to commit suicide, but in the end stand back and let the person decide for himself.
The *other* mind suggests to me that some people may not be mature enough to make a rational decision of this sort. Here is where this kind of subversive, intrusive technology might be warranted. Teenagers, pregnant women and PTSD soldiers should certainly be given counseling, and perhaps legally prevented from suicide for a certain time period.
A permit system could solve some of the confusion. Qualified adults could apply. They might be required to inform next of kin, etc
Tell me about it when they don't have the wind pushing them forward. Try crossing the Pacific from east to west.
There is no way the can target just terrorists, so this has bulk data collection of everyone in the UK written all over it.
Normally I think Cameron is OK but on this point he's making himself look like a complete fool and is clearly a dangerous enemy of fundamental human rights.
If nothing else he needs some basic lessons in information theory for even implying that its always possible to decrypt messages. Its not even possible to always know when some data just contains an encrypted message.
An authoritative, expensive survey to affirm what we already know. What's remarkable is that few will argue the results. You might think that conservatives would be embarrassed to see that their kind don't believe in evolution, but since they are conservative they probably agree. It's difficult to see who benefits from this exhaustive study.
Sounds like a paid anti-MS shill. Especially since Win8/10 both work fine on BIOS only PCs.
claim they were always going to do this if needed to but hadn't realized they were required to
Yeah, and ignorance of the law is no excuse right? In places like Canada, the fines for failing to have the proper insurance start at $10k per incident. After the first incident, they jump to $50k, $100k and $250k per incident thereafter. Maybe it's time for the crown/DA to start laying fines at their feet.
In Ontario, anyone can open a cab company with next to no money if they're a single individual(in my city a person can run a 1-2 car company for $250-700/yearly). A company is required to front money for a mass-operators license in most cities/towns. This is anywhere from $10k to $500k depending on the number of cabs you're going to operate. Uber refuses to follow existing laws, bylaws, or even insurance regulations.
I can tell you right now what's going to happen. Someone is going to get into a serious or fatal crash with an uber driver, they're going to have bottom barrel liability insurance(because they refuse to follow the law), and the company will be banned from operating in xyz provinces/states/etc.
Sorry, still don't see any evidence of research. It's a slightly interesting link but lacking anything but an assertion. If you have the citation, show it.
I see no evidence that anyone has studied the additional drag caused by bug debris. Lots of study given to a cure, none for the 'problem'. Exactly how much drag do they cause? Perhaps they should start with an analysis of the golf ball. All those distortions on the surface that we call 'dimples'. They must cause a great deal of drag that prevents long distances being reached. Oh, wait...
