It is a man issue: "Power has a gender, and that gender is male."
It is not only in our specific domain, but everywhere.

I've never seen anything either. At the same time, if the scum bags aren't being blatant a lot of the physical stuff's not easy for an outside observer to notice. ex in the middle of a crowd, a bump-grope is probably going concealed from everyone else's awareness unless our eyes are in the wrong place.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Yeah, if it's consensual, is it "manhandling"?

When cloud providers use uncommon and/or unpredictable pricing models, even your informed hunch about the cost can be off by several orders of magnitude, like the price differential between an iPad and a Ferrari. Always read the small print

I also like huge numbers in commercials, but surrounded with phrases like "up to" or "starting at" written in tiny fonts...

I think you pasted the same text from the previous post. But the link appears to be correct.

None of the three presidential candidates at the Democratic debate Sunday night appeared to understand the controversy over encryption technology that, in recent months, has pitted top national-security officials against the CEOs of Silicon Valley’s biggest tech firms. "There's some information on you we might not be getting. We'd like to get that."

Amazon raised a lot of eyebrows last year when it announced that it was planning to start delivering packages by automated drones. The number of avian deaths are well within the acceptable projected margins.

It not the bird deaths that matter unless they're endangered or protected, like eagles.
Its the endangered Indiana bat... kill one of those, based on extrapolated data, and you will have your delivery times curtailed....

If you own a system with an Intel 6th generation Core processor—more memorably known as Skylake—and run Windows 7 or Windows 8.1, you'll have to think about upgrading to Windows 10 within the next 18 months. You are a slave, Neo. Like everyone else you were born into bondage. Into a prison that you cannot taste or see or touch.

Amen, brother
The problem is that many companies have a large investment in hardware/software that runs only in Windows XP/7. Linux may be used with a Windows VM to run the software, but what about the hardware?
I see much wailing and gnashing of teeth from MS's real clients - the enterprise clients.

"Welcome to the 'Dr. Moreau's Delicatessen:' May I take your order?," he said, moving the menu around from person to person with his long, prehensile, trunk. [^]NIH ethicist David Resnik said during the agency’s November meeting. “The specter of an intelligent mouse stuck in a laboratory somewhere screaming ‘I want to get out’ would be very troubling to people.” Hiromitsu Nakauchi, a stem-cell biologist at Stanford University, began trying to make human-sheep chimeras this year. He says that so far the contribution by human cells to the animals’ bodies appears to be relatively small. “If the extent of human cells is 0.5 percent, it’s very unlikely to get thinking pigs or standing sheep,” he says. “But if it’s large, like 40 percent, then we’d have to do something about that.”
