Yeah but they're gonna rewrite the constitution, it's gonna be the best constitution the founding fathers will be jealous they didn't come up with this thing it's gonna be airtight and on the blockchain
I agree, I don't want my browser provider to collect any data on me at all, but if they absolutely must gather the absolute minimum system analytics stats or such they should NEVER pass it to a third party for ANY reason.
You make a desktop browser application, that's your job, to provide a portal to the world wide web, nothing more. Stay within your bounds and we'll never have any problem.
I don't use Skype for business, I use it for the video calls and for the ability to have international VOIP numbers that I can ring from/to, and send texts and stuff.
Not sure what service I'll migrate to once this is gone, I guess I'll lose my numbers too :-(
You're saying if the workers at that company wish to raise an issue as a group, like holiday hours, pension plans, or clothing policy changes, they should simply... murder their boss?
Their constitution has protections on their rights for just such a situation, so they should be quite aware of their rights and what they're capable of as a people.
The same way we used to? Tags and the ability to search for things, along with word of mouth from your friends and media you follow.
Even before the internet, people found new things like music or books by interacting with those communities, looking in places where those things can be found and finding stuff they like.
We don't need some algorithm to spoon feed us things it wants us to like, we can find it ourselves with minimal effort.
There is no point, we don't exist for a reason, we're just a thing that happened in the universe by random chance.
That's not an inherently bad thing though, heck, the concept of "bad" isn't even "real", it's just an invention we came up with.
But I digress. We must find out own purpose and meaning in life, it won't be handed to us. Think of the journey as a fun ride with no rules, there are no gods, the universe doesn't judge you, you are unique and weird and amazing and can interact with the universe in ways no gigantic star or powerful black hole ever could.
I think they mean mistake as in "you just made a big mistake buddy we're gonna make you pay for that", rather than a mistake as in "oops I didn't mean to say that, I err'd".
The BBC, for all it's issues, still follows basic rules of journalistic integrity with regards to facts.
If the BBC can't independently verify something through their own trusted channels (and multiple at that), they won't state something as fact, they'll just state the claim and say who made the claim.
It's not disrespectful, or suggesting that party is lying, it's just how good journalism is carried out.
As for why discussing how deadly the effects of the disaster have been, I imagine that's because people reading the article are concerned about the potential deadly effects of damage to the current radiation shield, and so some background is useful here.
Again, the BBC can't truly verify how many died, we only have our own nation's educated guesses coupled with the likely intentionally inaccurate numbers released by the USSR, and it's difficult to pin exact causes on some long term effects on an individual basis, like an increased cancer rate.
I would be surprised if these numbers weren't disputed, and so as it's relevant to bring up the deadly effects of the disaster, the responsible thing to do is to also mention that the actual number of casualties is disputed.
Good journalism isn't telling us what to think, feel or believe, good journalism is attempting to give us the unvarnished facts, claims, or what information we do have, which are pertinent to understanding the situation ourselves.
You were the chosen one! 😭
