The boosting of propaganda and the identification, tracking and exploitation of government targets.

People in key government positions are still people like us and they love social media too. Having an app on their phone doing data mining can identify people of interest and then collect data, target and compromise them. Even without the app on a government issued phone they can identify key people using their personal phones and then target them for more sophisticated surveillance.

Best to talk to a lawyer for specifics, but like non-compete agreements, NDAs often include things that can't legally be enforced. The people wanting you to sign the NDA just hope you don't know better and you'll shut up.

If you know better, you can take their money and then disclose the facts anyway.

Corruption is still the prime suspect here. Developers have a much harder time selling property that requires flood insurance.

I love that they have a belt. Like, you gotta put your belt on even with cut-offs.

It's keeping people off their land, as designed. I'm sure people buying property on the border do in fact find it beneficial not to have immigrants coming across on their property. Might even lower insurance too if it's viewed to reduce risk of liability.

Funny that they used donations to make their property more desirable and surprise Pikachu face its worth more now and taxes went up!

No OTA broadcasts in the US utilize 4k yet. ATSC 3.0 is being utilized some, but not exclusively, but no one is broadcasting 4k unfortunately

I'm 26+ miles away from the broadcast antennas as the crow flies and I get great reception from an approx $100 antenna mounted in my attic. Some HOAs don't allow antennas and people might be surprised to learn how good your reception can be from an attic.

Nuclear safety and penny-pinchers don't make good bedfellows.

It had to be raised and pointed to have a bullet go through the windshield and hit someone in the face. Don't make excuses for the guy

Worked with linux servers plenty with a development job but new to running at home and using a desktop interface. I'm using RDP to access the machine and have run into a few issues I'm not sure how to solve.

First, I'm using Mate and I've noticed issues with have the panel/task bar disappearing. When the machine first boots my user account is logged in and if I then RDP into the machine, the panel doesn't show. If I go to the machine physically and logout, then when I RDP in I can see the panel, but that's a hassle. Seems only one instance of the panel with run. Do I need to create a different user to use with RDP to avoid this? Other options?

Second, physically working on the machine I can go into the network settings and make changes. However when I RDP into the machine - using the same user account - the widget to let me see and edit the details of the network interface is disabled. Why is it that a physical session seems to have sudo access through the UI but an RDP session doesn't? Can I change this too?
