Have they passed one of those with a majority Democrat or Republican Congress? Or have they just "wanted" to levy import taxes? The actual legislation seems to favor globalization over protectionism. I think TPP showed more their true colors where they tried to expand globalization but including very, specific provisions to protect the profits of very, specific companies or groups of them here. Some of those companies were themselves helping do the deal. They didn't care about American jobs: just the profits of big companies that donated to them.

We've banned this account for repeatedly violating the HN guidelines. Would you please not create accounts to do that with?

This needs to change as well. We nee to do away with the concept of a select few TLDs, indeed we need to scrap payed for subdomains/domains in general.

Are you sure :D

It's called spermination, vulgo fucking.

The Bulgarian form is the same as the russian чай (chay).

If the technology exists to do nefarious-thing-X, one must assume that governments are already using X despite whatever moral or political arguments they give you that they would never do it.

If we ever come to live in such a dystopian society I'm going to use our new found peeping power to mark political enemies and remove them all in a night of the long knives stile ordeal then overthrow the government and burn everything to the ground.

But the panopticon also stares right back at you.

Your political enemies can also use it to google you up, find what you're up to, and night-of-the-long-knives you first. You've already blown it by writing this post, so it's on Your Permanent Record For All To See.

Once the panopticon's switched on, YOUR first priority, Sunset, is to make sure you don't have any enemies who care enough to check out your posting history, because once they hit this post, you're toast. Concentrate on being super-nice to everyone you meet for the rest of your life.

See how this works? You're already out of the running as Evil Dictator Overlord. This everyone-sees-everything society is starting to look a bit less dystopian than it first appears!

It just means it's impossible to be covert within the system. It makes it straightforward for up-front malicious actors to run the system, Trump passim.

You'd end up with a conservative theocracy in short order. Only the perfectly conformist have nothing to hide; those people who beat their wives or children in the normal, socially approved manner will be safe.

>See how this works?

Not quite. My opinions aren't a secret IRL. I am surrounded by like minded individuals and am not afraid to voice my ideas freely.

There is a serious difference in the way I approach weapons training/survival and the way my ideological opponents do. So I am not that concerned.

But this is not the point. The point is, people will rebel if you put them into a corner.

If only there was a 100% sure fire way to prevent an ideology from exerting control over new vulnerable people.

There has to be a solution

Have fun convincing China to commit economic suicide.

Yes. Actually.

Another highly annoying example of good ideas just not finished properly is trying to use multiple virtual desktops on multiple monitors. For some reason switching the virtual destkots switches to the new desktop for ALL physical monitors. Just why...

The devs have also STILL not figured out how to give a simple and easy way to move windows from one monitor to another from the alt-tab menu.
