>This will set a dangerous precedent and cost businesses a lot of money and adding zero value to most existing paying customers. Do you feel the same way about wheelchair ramps and handicapped parking?

So wait- thousands of people are openly confessing to "hacking" into protected computers via unauthorized access methods? Isn't this a criminal offense when perpetrated over state lines, a violation of the computer fraud and

Sometimes the only way to win is not to play at all. If you want to contact me on Facebook about that... well, I never had an account, and I am surviving... somehow. BTW https://mastodon.social is making some headway. I see a

In related news, it looks like Unreal Engine just today came out with an update for "HTML5 Support for WebAssembly and WebGL 2". This seems huge as there are a lot of games written with the Unreal Engine I'd love to see come

It always seemed to me like that band (and that song in paritcular) was kind of "leftover" material rammed down the public's throat when Pearl Jam & Soundgarden broke as if it were some hidden gem that had somehow evaded

I use the w520 w/ubuntu 17.04 and love it. 1TB SSD, 12GB ram I think... good times. Would recommend.

The one thing i'd like to see is some kind of integration of the Signal protocol-- preferably in a way that supports federation as (1) having OpenWhisper Systems as a single point of failure for all email is not a good idea and (2) hav

Remember that every dollar spent on intuit, and every hour wasted struggling with bullshit tax forms (deliberately the status quo because of Intuit) means Americans can afford less time and money using your product and buying your servi

Yeah you don't need all the levels that I used :) I've been playing around to figure the best way to do it and integrate it with everything else, so I figured I'd list everything I've tried in case someone wants to play

You live in a 200k-person "city" and everyone's buying 4k-capable TVs? This doesn't sound like a typical town to me.

That's an odd indictment of government. If government is taken over by private companies, that's government not working, and it's certainly not a democratic government to blame, it's an infiltrated, corrupt political sy

It's actually the writer's guild that sets the pattern. They come first, then the DGA and SAG. This is why there have been so many prominent WGA strikes (1960, 1988, 2007-8) but few if any from the other unions. The other union

So should they explain the pricing schedule while you're still unconcious from the accident at the crash site or when your eyes are fluttering in the ambulance? Then at the E.R., they can talk you through your various choices in surge
