Unfortunately, not every child is able to discern what is happening. It is in the interests of the politicians to keep people separated, and this just helps to start the process of setting people against each other as early as possible.
On the plus side I have yet another reason to avoid yard work. I am sort of surprised, though, that the Lowes/Home Depot yard cartel has not weighed in on this.
So what happens under this bill if someone is using a game like World of Warcraft to role play, and a person arranges for someone to hook up with another player and in-world items are exchanged as part of the role play? Would that now be illegal? Role playing platforms may not like where this one is going.
If he really cared about protecting certain groups then he might need a set of standards that encompass, oh - 400 pages or so? Not sure if 200 pages will insure all these people he is concerned about get the consideration due to them.
This is something that the legislators should have sorted out a long time ago and made law. Leaving it up to the FCC will always come back to this sort of bureaucratic nonsense. It will continue to be an issue as long as the Congress refuses to address the problem.
Re: Not surprising that Facebook protects DisruptJ20.
This is only partisan if you believe that simply resisting anything being carried out the current administration is partisan. Although, we may have to nitpick about the difference between being partisan and fascist.
Protecting the privacy of its users is not a partisan battle. To be fair, Facebook is likely more focused on its own self interest in making sure people feel free to use their platform without *any* government snooping. If in this case interests align, then so much the merrier.
Unfortunately, the name google is anathema to the people who need to read this. The report will likely be ignored simply because it has that name attached to it.
Liebnitz should have taken Newton to court over Principia. Given that they used different notations it would not have been for copyright violation, but this defamation thing is a possibility.
One thing to note, though. The way people get added to papers now days has reached peak silliness. This is something that the scientific community should be trying to address, and it is a matter of discussion that continues to grow in volume. The idea of bringing this to court in a defamation suit is definitely taking things in a new direction.
I was going to make an dumb joke about young men that read but given the recent events in Texas (US) it would have been in terrible/bad taste. This is the world we live in.
After name-dropping his newly-minted term -- "responsible encryptionâ„¢
Actually, this idea is not so new. Many people have been discussing this for a quite a while, most notably folks like Bruce Schneier. There are responsible ways to implement encryption, and the notion that this term is being hijacked to mean exactly the opposite of what it currently means is a bit frightening. Changing the meaning of important terms is the modus operandi of important people who want to openly lie and deceive.
This is so dumb and typical of the government. There is nothing stopping the folks at Splinter from just stacking all the bits in the input tray of a copier machine and printing out all kinds of copies for friends and family. Or they could hand them over to the monks at the local scriptorium. Mark my words, one day they will invent other ways to transfer and store information, and that will be the end of this free ride.
Apparently, the kind folks at lawyer.com are helping her by encouraging her to go to twitter. Now we know where the US President is getting his legal advice.
Actually, there is not another option for professional football because they have an anti-trust exemption. Being free from regulation they are allowed to take steps that stifle competition and act as a cartel putting limits on their employees.
Yet you still have options to enjoy other activities which makes it different from the telecom industry. In the case detailed above the actions taken by Sprint will limit options and make the industry less competitive. The reason this is happening is due to a lack of regulations. So yes, this is a case where regulation can be a good thing. Regulations can be a bad thing, but they can also be good. Blanket statements about regulations are meaningless.
I was with you right up until the end. Everything sounds right on until I read the part about Comcast buying Sprint. That was the exact moment I had my giggle fit at the idea that Comcast was used as a good example of capitalism in the context of competition.
Yeah, regulation is the worst! Just this past Sunday I was watching a football game, and the whole thing was ruined by burdensome officials and their stifling oversight. Without a doubt the game would be much more exciting and move much faster if you could just rid of those pesky rules and the pin striped regulators dragging the whole game down.
Also, they should get rid of huddles. They are just plain ridiculous. Who in their right mind wants to go to that many meetings in one day?

Justice Moore has incredibly bad judgement. I did not intend for the irony to be so explicit, yet there it is.
