That advertisement is nauseating.

It's not a bug, it's a feature

Fun fact, you can't fire people that aren't employees. Judges are sometimes elected (so that they can be recalled or unseated), but other times those seats are assigned for life. Another fun fact: authoritarians ("I'm in the position of power, you have to do what I say") can come from either...

Much of the criticism is accurate. Their hardware is always behind the times! I am seeing a huge benefit from that though: I still get regular updates for my 2009 MBP. I pretty much only do software development work on it these days, but I still sometimes need to do audio/video work. It isn't as...

You know, I'm not so sure. Hasn't the bottom been falling out of their market from the currency miners? Maybe they bet big and made a lot of 1030s, then none of them were moving. Now, to sell them all (instead of dump them in a landfill), they need to build cards - but there isn't enough GDDR5...

Generalization-like typing detected. That's not at all what I have found, working with homeless and folks living paycheck to paycheck. I've found our system is built to maximize profit, and the only times that's not happened is when the workers have a balance of control against the...

As you note, we do already have laws that can apply. The problem is in evidence - how does one prove an ex is screwing with their lives? It helps to have laws that specify IoT devices can be weaponized in this fashion.

FTA: The NTSB and Tesla later realized that the battery should have been fully de-energized. Gee, d'ya think?

You know it can take time to do a full investigation and build a solid case, right? Especially when it comes to issues of newer technology, where judges and juries need to be walked through completely new concepts? It's pretty similar to the whole Mueller thing - in fact, they may even be...

This looks like a killer app for me. Really digging the music. Might be time to invest in a Vive Pro.

End of line.

I'm going to be that jerk who notes that "better" is subjective, so of course the net result will be along the lines of, "Well, that's like, your opinion, man."

RUM CABLE! I'M SORRY, RUM CABLE!

Some other things to keep in mind: - Magnetic presence along the cable can cause dropped packets - When running cable, unless it's shielded, don't run it alongside of power cables; crossing is fine. That whole magnetism thing - Conduits are your friend - mostly applicable to new buildings...

The reviewer in the video mentioned the display being a potential issue. How does it work for you? Too bright at night/dim in the day? Does it have sufficient auto-dimming functionality?

Who isn't convinced Bluetooth is adequate for audio? I simply enjoy the wired headphones and buds I've got, and it appears to be less draining on battery life.

Huh. My Galaxy S5 does the same thing. Guess I'll give this a shot.

Update Dec. 8 2017: The cloudflare[.]solutions domain has now been taken down. Also: article was released on DECEMBER 6, 2017.

I don't completely agree (I feel it's similar, in that the media seeks news that sells, because profit/capitalism). That said, I compliment highly your use of "I feel" over a definitive "the problem is." I've found this aids critical thinking in all involved.

A warning sticker in Chinese, perhaps.

It does feel completely disingenuous for them to send out samples for review at this and other sites, then have nothing available on hand for the enthusiasts to purchase. Like, using site reviews to prop up the price and demand even further, completely unnecessarily. Manipulative.

Now that's a throwback! I remember using a pencil on my Thunderbird to jump connections on top; worked like a charm. Then I jostled the cooler and chipped the die. Goddammit.

How long until we have to jailbreak our cars? And agreed, not seeing any connection to Net Neutrality.

God I am so thankful I kicked Comcast to the curb. There are many aspects to regulation, and monopolistic regional controls are just one. It just so happens that it regulates local governments, benefiting the companies in the industry.

I'm pretty sated by this move as well. Wish they'd offer it for old iPod Nanos, too. I'd have to think that would reset upon installation of a new battery, or at least be dynamic enough to handle restoring performance (guessing that's what you intend?)

This has got to do wonders for resale value.

Yes, but that crackdown really won't improve the value of the service or lower the price point, will it? I bet all of those using shared passwords will do almost anything other than sign up for the service.

Isn't the new Portal game coming out soon? I think I'll go with that.

That was a GREAT show. I'm happy it's still remembered. The writing was brilliant, and Tim Roth's charisma was downright infectious

Sounds like a plan. I think that can still be accounted for in our current jury and policing system.

Whew! Glad that's settled. I love it when any organization investigates itself and finds itself completely innocent. Happens all the time. Best feeling of relief ever.

Thanks for the baller heads-up

BORING

Give it time. Evolution didn't happen overnight.

You really haven't. Shop your gaslighting elsewhere.

You'll note that I didn't say that monopolies cannot exist even with government regulation. Failed regulations do happen. I suggest you study this topic further on your own, it's not my job to educate you.

Completely agreed. It's actually a control mechanism by the parties on top, an oligopoly (either explicit or tacit) enforced by the first past the post voting system we have. CGP Grey's done a great job at illustrating the impossibility of an nth party playing any significant role until our...

That is quite literally all I needed to know. On this, you are completely backwards and wrong. You illustrate complete ignorance of the actual histories of unregulated monopolies in our country, many of which reinforced the Gilded Age's issues. Breaking up those monopolies is the whole reason...

Ahh, yes, based on the Fraser reports. They represent some pretty seriously challenged surveying, not to mention that they release biased reports with politically influential intent. Also, their methodology is scurrilous at best: "The Fraser report is very deceptive because they add to the...

It wasn't my experience either. While perfectly correct that a handful of anecdotes do not completely represent 33 million, that does not substantiate your "6 months to a year" claim. It's very possible that someone did wait 6 months to a year for health care, I just don't know anyone who did...
