Urm, I'm aware that you're a serial Tesla defender, and I'm fine with that - plenty of people here seemingly have shorted the stock. But...not sure that comparing the number of recalls for the entire range of 2017 Mercedes vehicles is fair...
Unless...you educate your children, and provide them with devices - and the knowledge to use them - that enable them to securely share notes, pictures etc. It makes them more productive and ready for more advanced environments later.

Liberalism is the price/cost of free speech. You have to put up with a few idiots or you risk silencing everyone. I get your point, but why reduce the current (welcome) level of transparency when we don't really have to? People like me have no problem burning a few mod points to whack those sick/stupid posts down to -1, and at least we know that (hopefully) some valid posts are not getting "shadow banned" due to someone's personal agenda. I've personally modded back up some -1 posts that were certainly controversial, but yet interesting and not "wrong".
TLDR;/. mod system is far from perfect, but it works better than most others...
Show just a complex topic this is, I guess, and that coordinated action is required at a truly global level if we are to effectively tackle climate change. However, given our recent track-record on that, and tackling other man-made disasters like war, I'm not holding my breath.
I've not looked up the specs, but as one who is slightly familiar with real flamethrowers, (and I doubt this is one), then you have to be really careful...if not, you're just as likely to cover yourself with flaming liquid as you are to "have fun"...or whatever the hell you're trying to do with it.
Well, Apple has sales in Russia of around $2Bn. per year, at a very good profit margin. OK, this hardly peanuts, but not a lot of money to Apple really. (Fun fact: Apple's market cap is the same as the entire Russian market...)
Before they set up their own subsidiary, Apple products were purchased overseas and "greyed" into Russia by enterprising individuals, so if Apple's subsidiary gets shut down, presumably that would re-start, so Apple wins anyway...
First of all, forget "flying cars" and especially "autonomous" ones - not going to happen for decades if ever. Helicopter "Uber", yes, they exist, but it requires special conditions.... https://phys.org/news/2017-07-... "The city, which sits in a state of the same name whose population exceeds 45 million, has the biggest fleet of helicopters in the world...700 choppers, or nearly a third of Brazil's total number, are located there, alongside 528 helipads.
In this age, surely it would be trivial to have a national database of all schools, the subjects they teach, and the results they get, (normalised for factors such as budget, intake literacy level etc. If desired), but hey I guess both the teachers unions and the management would be in rare agreement about how that would somehow not in parent and student interest, right?
OK, so I can buy a cheaper phone, (probably Android) and get...replaceable batteries, SD-card reader, dual SIM, headphone jack (insert standard/. anti-Apple bitch-list here) Then (even without side-loading) install pretty much what I want; with more choice.
Neat trick, but if you watch the video, they have to be able to connect to the device while it's pairing to inject the attack...so, pretty cool, but I wonder how practical an attack it is in practise.
The "dieselgate" scandal was (and in some way still is) a huge thing for VW; it really hurt them financially and reputation-wise. (Somehow the other car manufacturers - who all gamed the system but in a somewhat less blatantly criminal fashion - managed to escape).
Since everyone else has given a stout "fuck off" to Apple, and their own vehicle development program is in the tank, then this leaves this unlikely alliance of the "weak", (note: both companies have enormous capabilities & resources, and lots of cash).
However, both companies also have strong, and strongly-different, cultures, big egos in management and complex behind-the-scenes politics; this won't go anywhere....
The old stories referenced are for a Tesla on "Autopilot" (stupid name) and a pedestrian stepping out into traffic and getting (sadly but unsurprisingly) run down. In both cases the human driver is clearly at fault.
Get back to me when truly "autonomous" cars are (a) on the road and (b) killing more people than sleepy or drunk humans.
Slashdot Mirror
With the pressure they’re under they must be slapping them together - probably better to wait a while
Disagree; Linux and *cough* BSD "key users" know better than to use Google drive; we have our own servers, thanks...
We don't use Gmail either...

Satellite communications will work just fine

Complain about any aspect of UK gov policy and its a police investigation.
Bollocks....the police have not the time for that (fortunately) due to spending cuts...

How is it "pioneering", if its been done before? As pointed out in the same post, dammit.
So how does this square with this?

Good idea, until you fumble in your pocket, or in the dark, or try and catch the 'phone as it slips off the table and....wipe it.

Ah, sadly not. People either pay nothing for water (they steal it) or they already pay a fortune to the "tanker mafia".

Then (even without side-loading) install pretty much what I want; with more choice.
(Android apps: 3.5 million; iOS apps: 2.2 million.)
Or, I can pay much more, and get less choice.
Huh?
Typing this as someone who has both types of devices, and actually in general much prefer iOS.
If you keep your HOSTS file updated regularly!
Must be true, I read it here!!!!!

People have already commented on other (RTOS) apps etc.
But how about this, for its time?
