Could Maroney Be Prosecuted For Her Own Hacked Pictures?

I want to give this question careful consideration, so I'll get back to you after a more extensive examination of the photographs in question.

Dear Occam,

The simplest answer

Is usually right,

And historical behavior

Is a good predictor

of future behavior.

Start a club, and the whole world will join.

I can relate, in parts. To the anti-feminists, that is.

I'm sick and tired of getting feminism shoved down my throat absolutely everywhere. There's new laws, most companies have policies, our language is being policed for misunderstood "gender-equality" and that's just the tip of the iceberg.

I'm in full support of women fighting actual oppression. If you can't vote just because you're female, I'm with you on that. If you can't drive a car because you're a female, I'm with you on that. If your boss tells you that short skirt is the appropriate dresscode, while he insists on long trousers for your male colleagues, I'm with you on that.
But the feminazis who insist that absolutely everything has to be exactly 50/50 male/female, then for all I care you can fuck off and die.
Also, let's be honest, many of the most vocal feminists quite publicly state that their goal is not 50/50, but female dominance.

Women in video games is one of the "soft topics". Yeah, it's ridiculous what armor female characters wear sometimes. But you're blind, deaf and stupid if you think it's a gender thing. Look at the male characters - they are all Schwarzeneggers, too. According to my female friends, I'm quite handsome, but most video game characters beat me hands down in both beauty and body shape. It's the same as in movies and magazines - we get idealized, unnaturally enhanced versions of humans.

Could video games improve their representation of women? Sure, they could. But the subject is by far not as simple and clear-cut as voting rights or such.

And frankly speaking, I play video games to relax and shut down. You could keep your politics out of my entertainment and work on improvements in the real world. You know, the one that matters.

To install unsigned apps, you have to disable Gatekeeper, with a warning about possible risk.

No, you don't. Just control-click in Finder, and choose "Open". That, unlike the normal double-click launch, bypasses Gatekeeper's prohibition on untrusted apps, instead presenting a security dialog that tells you that the app is untrusted, and asks you if you want to launch it anyway. If you tell it to do so, OS X computes a checksum for the app and adds hat signature to a list of trusted apps, ensuring that you won't be prompted about it in the future.

You might have to be in the "Mac App Store and identified developers" mode—I'm not sure.

Which basically means that Microsoft is selling a car without mirrors, brakes and seatbelts, but you have plenty of options buying one from a 3rd party. Provided you remember to do it...

Perhaps they do it professionally; and since people get sick of their jobs, perhaps some don't even like doing it.

...blaming Obama personally for the Secret Service being less than perfect.

I was disappointed a while back that that other distribution didn't go for "Kinky Koala".

Well, I think I lowered its chances of acceptance even more by posting it.

Non social or Unsocial. Antisocial is picking people off with a rifle from your front door as they walk/drive by.

In the US, we call that "home security".

Neither side is scientific.

This is true for both sides of the "Obama is a foreigner" or "Bush did 9/11" debates, too. But that doesn't change the fact that one side is consistent with reality, while the other is absurd agenda-driven fantasy.

Voice recognition that runs locally will not be nearly as good as the cloud version.

I'm ok with that. There's really only a small subset of commands I want to be processed locally -- to send some canned responses when driving etc, call a contact or dial a number.

They don't give a fuck about their own security, either.

You remember the scandal when it was revealed that the NSA had wiretapped the mobile phone of German government members? Well, it wasn't like the department responsible for the security of the government hadn't given them special encrypted phones, developed by a german company. It was that the stupid government idiots didn't use them because they were less convenient than their smartphones.

These people really don't understand security, at all.
