Will always prefer Baskerville.
Dunning-Kruger ensures that there will be countless people who suddenly have a background in macroeconomics and public finance.
Windows11 anecdotally has some distinct glitches on systems that run multiples of certain types of pro audio devices. Because pro audio is the single application for which I use Windows, and in fact the only reason I've *ever* used Windows at all, this is of enormous concern for me. The only truly annoying thing I've noticed is that as a side-docker, I can't handle the fixed location of the taskbar. But as strictly a single application user I really don't want a desktop environment at all, just a host OS for my application and maybe a terminal console for file management and administration.
I've never run Windows for anything else real. Linux was either my 4th or 5th Unix, depending on whether Coherent counts. I went straight from the minicomputer world of the 80s to the Unixes of the 90s and was an early adopter of Linux, which works for absolutely everything I do except pro audio. I know Apple is a thing. I know Linux audio is a thing, I've had a hand in developing it. I don't even hate Windows, but I dislike forced platform changes.
We hate Angular more than we hate Drupal. Survey results seem accurate based on that alone.
The first cannabis prohibition in the US was a law passed in 1910.
Stories like these remind me that marijuana is still illegal in some places.
The media does not determine who is president.
You're saying that they shouldn't report on election results? Or are you wishing they would use some other source of information other than the actual election results?
"The CRA" didn't take a side. You had a court judgment? Or a civil court declined to grant you a hearing?
The only problem with your plan is that failure to pay taxes is criminal not civil. For all your strong words, when you are looking at a decade in jail you will settle just like everyone else does.
And if you are famous or will get newspaper articles written about your prediciment you will still go to jail, just ask Wesley Snipes. He followed the advice of one of those tax crackpots and he went to jail for 3 years, even after buckling under to the government and paying back everything he owed plus the interest and penalties. The guy that convinced him to do it? 17 Years in jail. The IRS has their own courts and you are guilty in those courts unless you can prove otherwise.
Messing with the IRS is very foolish.
Crazy, isn't it?
Evidently, there is some unwritten law that states that Geolocation by IP address shall override any and all set preferences by the user on their device, and ignore any possibility that barring or redirecting the user makes no sense.
I get a version of this periodically on Spotify, where I'm informed that the particular album or single I'm looking at can't be played because it isn't licensed to my region. And of course there's the small matter of my being IP-blocked from Pandora Radio for the same reason.
I ran into a particularly nasty geolocation issue back in late 2012, when I was informed that I couldn't access my National Lottery account because they no longer believed that I was accessing it from the UK. Went back and forth between them and my ISP (VirginMedia), with each blaming the other for the problem.
I've also heard of situations where people have found the books on their Kindles vanishing because they're holidaying in an area where said books aren't licensed.
Glad to hear you survived! ^^;
Alerting you to login attempts from new locations or devices, and offer two-factor authentication, will slow down the hackers for a time.
But the answer, for most service providers, is to tell the user that it's their problem now.
