Yes, for large corporations and banks of which directly benefited from the FLOOD of free credit (aka money) and ballooning asset prices provided by the FED, the recession ended. For the rest of us, all we got were higher asset prices and mo

facebook was found to be doing the same thing. Voice is just some data, companies have teams of engineers working on efficiently extracting that datastream and using it to sell you ads.

Well my preference is to be helped by helpful women. Go build your own distro if you want to be helped by a faceless robot. I'll take Sarah, Siri, and Cortana, thanks. If you don't like it, build a better product that competes wit

The details of the plan are not released, how can Trump get "played" by Foxconn. You don't even know the deal. And even if they don't create any jobs, they still are investing and contributing tax dollars to the country.

If you have python available, I find `glances` to be a great tool (`pip install glances`) Has disk, network, proc, mem, cpu, etc. all wrapped up in a a curses interface. very slick and useful.

I think you're over-reacting, this change just allows the FBI to pursue investigations on the internet. Having these jurisdictions made sense in the time of horse and buggy when people weren't as mobile, but a crime committed on a

Agreed,how long is the investigation? It's only been a month. Isn't saying it hasn't been used at this stage kind of absurd? Why even mention that part at all, just makes them sound dumber. Should have just said "there&#

More than 50% of the population of India doesn't have a bank account. A large percentage of Indians use an open field as a bathroom and have trouble getting access to clean water. How does this help them in _any_ way? Hold on, let me s

You mean less useful and smaller denominations, not "newer". They are trying to make cash unappealing to use by requiring more bills to carry out a transaction. If the government came and said "Because terrorists drive cars b

I do the same thing but with SSH. I like using SSH as the proxy because it supports other protocols besides HTTP and people generally already have SSH keys, and I don't have to manage another daemon just to provide authentication with

The "Fake News" story is being pushed by such places as the New York Times, which just recently admitted they do the same thing. https://twitter.com/melbournecoal/status/797171598163898368/... Here&

Is this an advertisement for black mirror? All I see is one intro paragraph bashing Trump and then a summary of popular episodes. Nice stealth advertisement.

Yeah all that is great until you realize the people who control the filters are biased and, for example, allow a hashtag like #killallwhites to exist. Where's the diversity councils and the racism SWAT teams for that?

Just use the backblaze API in a script with a cronjob, that's what I do. It's linux, you're going to end up writing some code to get what you want, heh.

No one seems to be even considering fusion. I understand the tech isn't there, but that's because of the "fusion-never" levels of funding. Can someone please fund this!?

So is black metal music racist? Give me a break, people have associated black with evil things such as monsters stalking the night, plague, and death for 3000 years and probably before it. You are paranoid and overreacting. You're proj

Yes the vote was distorted, but that is the fault of the democratic party for not organizing their candidates better. How can you make a law that prevents one political party from being disorganized? Isn't that kinda like trying to &qu

Because maybe not everyone projects their own racism onto innocent words such as black, white, and yellow. We should "go there", because thought-crime and "watch what you say" type ideas are much more dangerous to our so

Yes, but why does windows have to deal with old drivers and userland software? Because they are paid to do so! It is a business, if they didn't make money on it, they wouldn't do it. On Linux, if no one wants to maintain the old d

I'm talking about the design philosophy. Windows is a GUI-centric experience. Adding a GUI instantly adds an order of magnitude more code to a project. This hides complexity from the user, but increases the amount of code. Much of the

Your point was: "Take it from someone who saw what Brexit did to the UK: Your country, by electing someone with an unpleasant set of views on race/religion, has implicitly given free reign to people with even more unpleasant views

I think there's many reasons for this, but the top couple are imo: - Linux trusts their users to know what they are doing. They do not build layers of abstractions to make things "easy". These abstractions create complexity a

It's not "reckless experimentation" for "no gain" at all. Here's a practical application for this research. Someone with a disease will eventually suffer from paralysis due to the degen. nature of the disease.

You can't compare the two because one was created by humans and one was not. It's ridiculous to compare these two. Here's a more accurate scenario: You need to debug this software without a keyboard, mouse, monitor. The langu

Your post suggests that now that Trump supporters are the majority, it's open season on minorities. Like somehow the regular joes who voted for Trump will turn into some kind of criminals that go around beating up minorities. I find th

Alright, why don't you tell me all the proof you have that Apple was not a participant in the programme? The NSA talks about them in internal documents, that they have absolutely zero incentive to lie on, that Apple is a part of PRISM.
