I am also having a Microsoft account issue that is similar to this. https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook_com/forum/oaccou... Difference for me is that I have no idea how the work account was created.

I agree corporations get off far too easy. And that is the fault of the government in many cases for not prosecuting them or letting them off with fines far below the profits of illegal activity. "Controlling the supply of labor is ve

How is this an absurd generalization? This type of crap happens all the time. And people should absolutely talk about this stuff constantly because this kind of stuff shows the true colors of the union(s) and what they really stand for.

The author claims the request for ID is an "invasion of privacy"? Such a claim is absurd. A request for something is not an invasion of privacy and never is. He can simply decline to provide the information - which is the path

Interesting. Thanks for this information. Obviously, this wouldn't apply to the case at hand, though, as Lexmark is not a newcomer to the industry nor is the industry itself relatively new, thus requiring facilitation from tied sales.

This is just an extension of a tied sale. Tying agreements are already illegal under anti-trust law. The only difference here is that Lexmark (and other companies) are skipping the contract/agreement part of it and going directly to

Yep, like when the city gets into financial trouble and can't meet it's overstuffed pension promises. Don't worry, though. I'm sure it will just be "anonymized" data that won't be personally attachable t

If that's true, that seems like the sort of thing that would lead to a ton of false positives getting flagged for removal. I'm sure big news events like the Wikileaks Vault7 release would generate lots of comments. Doing a quick

Honestly, I don't really know much of anything about civil unions so maybe your right. If that's the case, I have no idea what the actual distinction is between a civil union and marriage would be then if they both confer the sam

"You're asking for government recognition of your marriage." True, but that's only because, as another user mentioned in this thread, that there are legal benefits of being married. You also touched upon this subject. B

Nope, definitely wasn't right in most cases. I can understand why some of it exists, though - like not being able to be forced to testify against your spouse. The two people who are married are supposed to be "one" so the e

Those legal benefits would not be lost. You would obtain/retain those benefits once you sign the paperwork declaring yourself married. That document would be held in force with all legal consequences (benefits and ramifications) unti

I agree that controlling for certain factors is a core principal in statistics so that you can tease out relationships once you quantify the impact of other factors. Also, "if done correctly" is a huge assumption with everyone hav

I disagree. That link shows no formulas whatsoever, just a generalized explanation of what they do. Without a hard set of rules to follow, it's useless. Also, looking into the X-13 ARIMA software documentation, it looks similar to o

My point was simply that there is not agreement across the board that they commit more crimes. Yes, people are unscrupulous when it comes to statistics, that's definitely true. But "adjusting" for things is usually a way for

If you are willing to do this, then why not just say "no" to the CBP and DHS? You must be allowed in if you are a citizen so the only risk is them keeping your phone for a few weeks while they try to hack it to get inside. I bel

Those aren't the types of ads I was referring to. I was talking about in-page ads like AdSense. But it's good to know they do that.
