    @bobjonkman @lnxw48a1 Google also says "engagement" is low and user sessions usually last around 5 seconds. I read that to mean "Oh crap, I accidentally hit G+, back back BACK."

    @lnxw48a1 It's amazing how much stuff out there still needs flash installed. I've run across some "You're trying to sell me some secure product but are still using THIS?" sites lately...

    Some tech websites are putting Twitter on their deathwatch list.

    Twitter has never made money, and burns through a few hundred million a year.

    I'd think by now it would be obvious that there is money coming from somewhere to keep this thing running for whatever reason.

    The pay rate for this contact job is $20/hr, no benefits, no relocation, and it's with Lockheed-Martin. The ignorance of companies these days is just amazing...do they actually think that anyone out of state is going to move to take a short-term, essentially minimum wage job?

    @daniel5555 It's information everyone concerned with the future of the US internet should have. Going to be an interesting few years coming up.

    @dwmatiz Sho is. The ruling itself is going to be tied up in court for a while, but there doesn't seem to be anything to prevent ISPs from doing funny stuff ASAP.

    2005 - Madison River Communications was blocking VOIP services. The FCC put a stop to it.

    2005 - Comcast was denying access to p2p services without notifying customers.

    2007-2009 - AT&T was having Skype and other VOIPs blocked because they didn't like there was competition for their cellphones.

    2011 - MetroPCS tried to block all streaming except youtube. (edit: they actually sued the FCC over this)

    2011-2013, AT&T, Sprint, and Verizon were blocking access to Google Wallet because it competed with their bullshit. edit: this one happened literally months after the trio were busted collaborating with Google to block apps from the android marketplace

    2012, Verizon was demanding google block tethering apps on android because it let owners avoid their $20 tethering fee. This was despite guaranteeing they wouldn't do that as part of a winning bid on an airwaves auction. (edit: they were fined $1.25million over this)

    2012, AT&T - tried to block access to FaceTime unless customers paid more money.

    2013, Verizon literally stated that the only thing stopping them from favoring some content providers over other providers were the net neutrality rules in place.

    Never forget, your ISP doesn't want to provide everything on the 'net for you at one price.

    @lnxw48a1 People at the top always think things are rosy. I remember my time at $bigtelco, when we had yearly surveys. The same things always showed up - too many meetings, too much stuff in the way, try to streamline procedures...nothing ever changed.

    @gargron That's ok. We'll just block your instance from Mastodon for "good reasons."

    Microsoft Defines Standards For 'Highly Secure Windows 10 Devices'

    Pardon me while I clean the desk up after I spat my drink out laughing.

    @lnxw48a1 Imgur hasn't been a good choice for some time now. The cat's paw wiping across the screen thing from a year ago did it for me.

    I don't care if it is an "immediate need," if you're not going to tell me what the job is, I'm not going to send you a resume.

    I love how Microslop calls the next big Windows downgrade a "Creators Update," as if Windows is some magical thing that Unicorns and Werewolves are using to make miracles.
