But soon after Mr Xi secured a third term, Apple released a new version of the feature in China, limiting its scope. Now Chinese users of iPhones and other Apple devices are restricted to a 10-minute window when receiving files from people who are not listed as a contact. After 10 minutes, users can only receive files from contacts.
Apple did not explain why the update was first introduced in China, but over the years, the tech giant has been criticised for appeasing Beijing.

Seems like it's going to start again, been some stuff lately in the news again. :lA former playschool in the town of Åkers that was scheduled to be used as an asylum centre caught fire early Friday morning. Police have stated the fire is likely to have been started deliberately.
We have very few actual homeless people, most "homeless" still own some shitty apartment given to them by the state. Some don't use it, but we don't have many of the "traditional" sleeping outside people.
On topic. For the people talking about this as an isolated incident. Stop right there, this is a one of many refugee homes set on fire in Sweden. The Swedish Democrats (anti immigration) posted a list of refugee homes autumn last year in the midst of these fires. Imagine thinking burning down the homes will solve anything, it just makes it all worse, literal idiots.
When governments refuse to listen to their citizens, that sort of thing is inevitable.
"There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there always has been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through out political and culture life, nutured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.'" —Isaac Asimov

I guess people forgot there were other things (and yes, other than the ACA too) that were higher priority at the time. Also at the time, the Republicants were vocally supportive of fixing the immigration system. But it turned out to be the same kind of initial support that they had for the ACA, turns to sour obstructionism when the time comes to get to work.
But again, we can't expect Republicans to do their job.
Hey, the next time you go into your job (or once you get a job) tell your employer you're not going to do your job and see how it works out.

Well done...well done...
And now even more money is going to be spent in rebuilding the shelters. Congrats on such an accomplishment!
It was a huge blunder by them to start right in with ACA. They should have went in and passed every single bill the democrats were all in agreement on, on the first day. Wasting a super majority on an issue they still had to debate and negotiate on within their own party is just political malpractice.
Since I'm not a fanboi of either party, lets get real here. There is one reason, and one reason only that immigration reform will never happen. The reason is that Democrats will never accept the illegals being allowed to stay, but being made to wait their turn to become full citizens, and Republicans will never allow blanket amnesty that creates millions of new voters for the opposition. It's that simple. It has nothing to do with being nice to foreigners or any of that nonsense. One side wants new voters, the other doesn't want that to happen.
Bills don't pass in a day, they're drafted over a period of time. This is why it was such a joke when people said no one read the ACA before it was passed, because it had been in deliberation for MONTHS and was even available to the public online.
The Republicans could gain big points among the hispanic vote by dropping the hispanophobia, considering they're very devoutly catholic. They could very easily play on that religious vote and gain a huge number of voters... But in usual republican fashion, they took their heavy rhetoric, that immigrants were bad, and instead of swallowing their pride on that just dug their heels (and heads) into the sand and doubled down.Since I'm not a fanboi of either party, lets get real here.

For Democrats it's not solely about the votes, it's not even majority about votes. Our immigration system is a mess, and needs to be fixed. The most ironic part is that there's a large number of people who managed to make it through that system who then don't want it to be any easier for anyone else, because dammit they had it hard so everyone else should as well!
