Many states have laws requiring abandoned funds be turned into the State Comptroller's office with the transaction details. Consumers then have typically 5 years to claim the funds, after which it escheats to the state.
The fines for failing to do so are quite spectacular in some jurisdictions, sometimes up to the greater of 7 times the funds or a quarter of a million dollars per each count, which ever is greater.
For someone that styles themselves as "IAmWaySmarterThanYou", you aren't.
Live CD/DVD's 20 years ago. Today we have Ventoy for a wide selection, including Kali and Tails.
Sheesh. Difficult to infect anything with a read only file system and no hard disk. Any less aware and you would think Republicans are good for the economy.
Back to ignoring AC. Took only 2 days to get troll swamped from engaging AC
In other words, you got your butt kicked by a bunch of little kids and went home to mummy.
Package service actually makes USPS money. Several times it was shown in congressional hearings.
Wishing it was a money loser doesn't make it a money loser. The biggest factor was Republican insisting USPS fully fund retirement 30 years in advance. No other business or government does that.
They need to fix that ASAP.
Firing De Joy would be a good step. The current issues at USPS can be tracked to his two fold desire to wreck mail in voting while also promoting his private investment in for profit shipping businesses.
That's why Trump appointed him.
Texas doesn't think you need a water break working construction in 125 degree heat either.
I'm sure Texas' policy on time off for health care are equally enlightened.
It's still not my job to raise your kids.
Either secure their devices so they can't use them without your supervision, give them up for adoption, or shut up.
"I'm so f***ing tired of 'tech' being used to solve an 'issue' but only making everything worse and more inconvenient for everybody," they wrote.
Had to go to a minor emergency clinic today. So, 11 sheets of paper, and they SMS's the exact same forms to my phone to fill out as well. About an hour to fill out the paper and electronic forms, an hour sitting around. At two and a half hours the doctor strolled in for work at around noon-ish.
I wasn't even using my insurance because it's such a pain in the neck to get anything but "YOUR BILL IS DUE! PAY NOW!" out of them.
And I was in Australia about 30 years ago. I thought they don't tip there.
Just because something is possible doesn't imply that it's a good idea.
I defenestrated in 1998 personally, and professionally in 2003. Two decades without the Curse of Gates can do wonders.
Friends and family learned long ago not to even ask me to help with their windows issues unless it's to port them to Unix/Linux.
"American Treasure" is an instant tell for a propagandist posting. No American would state it that way.
What he really wants is for you to get mad. Real mad! And to buy his shitty book.
The blind do not appreciate the art of Picasso, Degas, Winchester, Delacroix, or Van Gogh.
But their works are valued by those with the ability to see them. Which isn't to say Cory Doctorow is at the level of the preceding.
Doctorow's works are valued by those with the ability to see the point. Ray Charles never owned a Rodin, but he did own a Chickering.
And the opponents of it back then have been proven right again and again.
BULL.
SHIT.
Places like this very web site will close the instant DMCA is gone. I'll remove all internet services I control in less than a heartbeat. Without DMCA, idiots can sue because they feel entitled. It's bad enough now. Only authoritarians and idiots think the DMCA should be ripped out.
I am put in mind of John Deere, claiming that they simply had to close source all repair and part because gasp! someone might hack into their equipment and make it sooooo dangerous for the general public. Why, they might get SUED! because someone modified their combine and someone else got hurt!
Never mind the fact that never happens when people "hack" their '57 Chevy, or that Boeing and Air Bus have folks that work on their planes that aren't their employees. Shock! Someone's phone needs the same care and restrictions as a machine that flies at 35,000+ feet at 550+ miles per hour! Oh, THE HORROR!!!!
the very last line gives you the full context: he's advertising his new book.
And? He shouldn't make a living telling people why and how they get screwed? I'm sure Apple and John Deere would agree. You should go to Houston and tell Louis Rossmann that. I want to watch.
A company with the logo of the original sin
I quit paying attention to the argument about the bite of the apple - gosh, 30 years ago? Some saw it as you, some saw it as an homage to Alan Turing. Ronald Wayne designed it, and there are two things related to him I want to read/watch, "Adventures of an Apple Founder" and "Welcome to Macintosh", a documentary. Time... ask me for anything but time.
Company logos are mind ducks, they are empty gestures with no real significance other than to get you to remember them and make them relevant.
As I am not a fan of apple other than Woz. I never have been past the Apple IIe, when Apple started hog tying their customers and forcing them to consume technology they way they want you to use it. Duck that. In my opinion the best punishment for companies that try to illegitimately leverage their intellectual property for market advantage is to take it away.
All of it.
Every patent, every trademark, every copyright. G.O.N.E. and put it in the public domain for all to use.
Many in the military are poor people or from troubled backgrounds and use it as an escape of their circumstances,
A few years after this, another person from the AF joined the same employer as above in an IT role. His backstory involved some fairly un-nice things, including parents that were stone cold stupid (I had to deal with them over the phone more than once), but the dude was a rock star. Knew his stuff and was ever learning even more, plus being a great mentor.
After a few years, he left that employer and now manages a huge IT infrastructure. Very proud to have worked with him. My only objection is that he liked Windows better than Unix or Linux.
I had to call (on the wired phone) an Air Force base once to politely ask the airman that answered the IT departmental phone to stop an 700Mb attack from his network to mine.
I had to step him through how to use netstat, traceroute, and how to drop packets on a Cisco PIX, then point him to docs on other matters.
Mind you, he had zero idea who I was, yet followed my suggestions. My last bit of advice to him was "Don't run commands from random strangers!"
And yes, I am leaving out a lot of details.
Say "twenty-three-skiddoo" to logout.
