Precisely.

I agree with you that unchecked enforcement of rules by the government is a negative. But perhaps you would agree with me that net neutrality, and perhaps more broadly the FCC, are not in an "unchecked" state.

Like I said in my original comment though: I don't disagree with you entirely; I understand that the free market in most cases does correct itself. It just seems that there is a certain balance required for free-market correction, which if upset, allows for unchecked behavior by private companies.

I suppose a better articulation is as follows: the free market, when working correctly, allows me to choose with my wallet. I literally can't do that in my city, unless you mean to say that spending thousands to millions to construct my own ISP is a reasonable alternative to true competition. At least from a consumer perspective? My point was that net neutrality would solve this specific issue in a top down manner, removing the need for people in cities across the country to "take matters into their own hands".

It seems that you are suggesting that free market forces are capable of correcting all imbalances? (not 100% sure your position)

I'm not in the industry, so keep that in mind.

While this document comes across as a decent primer on the general theory behind encryption, I wish it covered the security implications of historical policy proposals (key escrow and DRM come to mind).

It seems important to make sure that policymakers are not only educated on encryption, but on the pitfalls or "fallacies" that come about when, well, trying to write policy regarding it. Such misconceptions, I think, are more dangerous than a fundamental misunderstanding of the system as a whole as they allow for crippling crypto by law (picking and choosing implementation details), instead of simply misinformed blanket laws.

I understand the sentiment, but doesn't it sound much more reasonable to have strictly enforced net neutrality (or consumer protection policy X), than it does to assume the "free market will take care of it someday"? These megacorps have a stranglehold on large swaths of the States – they won't allow challengers without a fight.

I second Chocolatey. There's also a (supported by Choco) puppet plugin which makes client installations as simple as

  package { 'notepadplusplus':
    ensure            => '6.7.5',
    provider          => 'chocolatey',
  }

Since I've been playing with NixOS, this project reminded me of https://github.com/LnL7/nix-darwin which lets you use a system-wide configuration.nix on OS X. Never tried it but it looks neat.

OP used uBlock Origin to create a rule that hides the popup.

This project sounds interesting! Would you consider reverse engineering the Chrome plugin to add calling? (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/skype-calling/blak...) Not sure if the plugin uses native code, but it should be possible to grab the mic / play audio from terminal.

That would explain why the machine with iTunes works. Windows isn't my daily driver anymore but I'll definitely try that! Yeah Canon printers always seem to work after installing the monolithic Canon drivers, but tbh it just feels wrong.

Yeah that issue was when I was using the ISP-provided gateway combo. I'm running a PF box right now and it hasn't been reassigned in months. But yeah assigning a static ip would fix it. It's just annoying when its a family member who doesn't know that can be done.

I find that Windows machines wont "discover" my Canon printer like OSX+Bonjour does, so if the IP address changes you have to delete and reinstall it. :/ Might be OP's problem?

I would assume it comes into contact with it more..? The technology industry is behind telecom infrastructure, consumer facing communications, etc; all of which seem like better targets than banks or the financial industry.

Not just any alternative, but one that can be implemented in a manner backwards-compatible with BGP. "Oh hey, lets get every core router on the planet to use this new protocol!" won't happen overnight. ;)

http://www.cnn.com/2015/10/05/americas/brazil-wrong-directio... seems to be the story you are referencing.

One tweak that made my G2 feel much more responsive is simply turning down the UI animation length in Dev Settings. That's not to say that app developers don't love their non-native webview apps crammed to the brim with ads, though...

The output reminds me of Blender's Freestyle plugin. This looks great though because it's not part of a software suite! ;)

DWV [1] (open source, Flash/Java-less webapp) Seems to still be a WIP, but it lets you load the files from the repo (to localstorage), despite throwing errors left and right. ;)

Looks like Certificate Manager is only available in the US-East region thus far.

Just a heads up: you won't see the contents of any encrypted traffic with Wireshark without some setup (i.e. MITM your traffic + install a root cert for said MITM). http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1073166/capturing-https-t...

Huh. I clearly didn't research before I wrote my one-liner. This is certainly a little more ... documented. Thanks for the heads up!

Car dealership and "house for sale" videos for me out in the suburbs of North Texas ;)

I aliased Sublime to `sub`. Without args it opens the current folder as a project; with args it opens the file[s].
