Most of the time we also know how to get people to take the medicine, but an outdated code of ethics prevents us from doing it.

That's okay. It was primarily a rhetorical question anyway.

Are personal defenses, like mentioning your own family similarly not allowed? Or do the rules just make that an irrefutable argument?

Members of the US military swear to support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, including domestic ones. Just because your family members might be oathbreakers doesn't mean everyone in the military is.

You have put yourself in a situation where you need to make false statements in order to comply with the law. If you create a deathtrap where you control a deadmans switch that prevents it from killing me, that doesn't absolve you of

In what way are your suggestions better? Do you mean that they are actually more effective, or are you just talking about your personal preference? Personally, I would have thought of better mental health care and limiting access to firearm

Your first point still makes no sense to me. You are paying for something that doesn't have a feature you like. A more expensive version does have the feature. What are you proposing instead? That you get a product with more features f

You can disable utcsvc and prevent it from being re-enabled. Since doing so also disables Windows updates (which is why you shouldn't do it) you can also be sure that future updates will not re-enable it.

Exactly where you would expect to find it: the data use and access section of the technet article on the feature, and in the Windows privacy statement.

You can turn it off via group policy if you have windows enterprise. If you just want to complain that the cheaper version doesn't have the feature you want, and you don't want to pay the higher price for the version that does hav

Where have they refused to be up front about any of this? As far as I'm aware, they have detailed all of those things except how exactly they anonymize the data, which I haven't seen anyone specifically ask them about.

I believe there must be a way of allowing people to live forever without growing old or dying. Unfortunately, neither of our beliefs are very helpful since we cannot describe an exact method for achieving our goals.

The point is that referring to Visa and MC as a duopoly is inaccurate. There are other ways to process payments besides through the credit card system.

The danger I was referring to is in shaping your own worldview to be too widely divergent from reality. If you don't care about that, I suppose that's your choice.

Yes, but he IS still a major party nominee. It's like being the least skilled basketball player in the NBA. If you call him extreme, what does that make, say, the Independent American Party?

They are not completely exclusive, but more extreme politicians are certainly unlikely to become very popular, and more importantly, the more popular they are, the more dangerous it is to think of them as extreme. Especially if you turn out

As you don't know whether Discover or Amex is bigger? Why does that matter? And Paypal is not a credit card. You can link it directly to your bank account and pay with it as the transaction processor. That's a big part of why it&#

Not only is that true, it's usually not even the regulators that are making up the final actionable items. Businesses hire independent auditors who need to make sure their clients are well clear of what the regulators would be concerne

They can be fooled now, but that is an implementation flaw, not a problem with the concept. I wouldn't cite the weakness of unsalted MD5 hashes as a problem with the concept of passwords. I agree with your assessment of what biometrics
