The difference is that the Big Bang Theory is not accepted as irrefutable proof, and it is based on incredibly deep and diverse scientific research. You do make a good point in that in the end all science is still belief, just well supported beliefs.
You are missing the point. Human EGO while driving kills people, we must remove ego from the equation of driving.
TLDR - Humans are too unstable to trust piloting 3000 pound vehicles with no oversight or override control.
You use x86 itx motherboards with dual NICs. Stuff like this https://www.amazon.com/Intel-F...
Actually this isnt equivalent, it destroys any ARM based router in performance and reliability.
I am fun, i jsut have no tolerance for people like you who think that driving is anything less than a serious responsibility. The sooner we get people like you out from behind the wheel, the better. You are going to be SHOCKED at how fast its going to happen. Insurance rates are all about numbers, and the instant the autonomous cars surpass human safety numbers, human-driving will be over. Insurance actuarial tables dont give a shit about your ego.. No argument for Liberty can silence the 30,00 dead every year from auto collisions. Enjoy it while you can, we are coming for exactly people like you who think 30,000 dead per year is somehow less important than being able to self-drive.
You can have a FUN car, just not on public streets. Our roads are no place for having fun, its for the function of transporting humans and cargo as safely as possible. Your days are numbered. In our lifetime it will become prohibitively expensive to human-drive a car. Your insurance premiums will be insanely high when you become the biggest risk on the road by far. If you want to have adventures driving, go to the track.
There are plenty of legal ways to make life hard for Qualcomm to encourage them to sell and devalue their product. Ask the Qwest CEO. To paraphrase Hans Gruber, "The Justice Dept enjoys rattling is saber for its own ends, now they can rattle it for us."
MP3 to Atrac conversion took longer than CD to mp3 conversion on my 650Mhz Pentium III. I also lost a ton of hard drive space holding two copies of songs, one mp3 and one atrac.
I didnt say it was illegal, only that having them arouses suspicion. If i know you are into lockpicking and my house gets broken into with no signs of forced entry, guess who is now a suspect until ruled out?
If Sony had allowed straight MP3s to be burned onto Mini-Discs, it would have beat the pants off the solid state MP3 players for the first 3-5 years they existed. The only thing that stopped mini-disc from dominating was Sony. I bought a mini-disc walkman after i had a 64 MB MP3 player that died. It wasnt until i got home i realized how terrible Sony's process for getting music on the device was.
I can BUILD an MP3 player, trivially, out of common parts. For the last decade a good chunk of high-end audio gear is made in people's garages now. I dont think you understand just how far along the cyberpunk timeline we are.
Everyone here knows that this is the beginning of having no control over your device at all. As time goes on, ONLY certified devices will be able to use popular services. Ads will become completely unblockable. Having root will eventually arouse as much suspicion as owning lockpicks.
Convicted abusive monopolist, just like ATT and Standard Oil. Microsoft earned all of the hate it gets. Also, it outright tried to kill Linux by funding SCO. Dont fucking defend M$ here.
What happened there? I got hit with that stupid thing for a while, on a raspberry pi system not connected to the internet that i was using as digital signage.
So a disk with a completely variable, unreliable and slow link. I dont know why MS thinks they can solve the issue of local vs remote resource this way. Forcing the cloud to act as local is only going to be a pain for everyone. We learned this lesson decades ago. At some point users have to take responsibility for their data and know how to manage it. There is no magic way to solve this problem.
Google had no chance because they forced it. If they hadnt been pricks about it, more people would have used it and the outcome might have been different. The real-name push was fucking ugly. Its like they learned nothing from when Blizzard tried it.
The problem is you still think getting deliveries is for 'special items'. Amazon delivers at least half of my pantry. I get free (included w/Prime) two hour delivery from them at least 3 times a week for everyday stuff like a case of coke, or coffee. Same price as the grocery store. It the modern equivalent of sending a neighborhood kid to the store. When i was young i made deliveries all the time for old folks in our town. Nothing formal, just 'hey kid, you want to make some change by picking up my groceries?'
It not illegal in MOST places. I grew up in Michigan and pretty much everyone who rides a bike is on the sidewalk. I will NEVER ride in the street, it is absolutely dangerous, there is no logic to it.
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what is for dinner. We took up some democratic ideals, but we are a representative Republic, more than a 'democracy'. All democracy means is all citizens are empowered to participate in governance. It doesnt really encapsulate how our government runs, only who can participate.
not everyone who testifies is doing so willingly...Many people are compelled to testify. You should re-examine your logic here. Forcing me to take an oath in court is not an agreement between equal parties.Its a reminder that the court will punish you if it thinks you are lying, not that i am morally bound to tell the truth.
Those 32 GB Win 10 tablets suck so bad. Windows chokes the shit out of them with its bloat when doing updates. I wont buy anything less than 64 GB now.

Time to build that Pfsense box i have been talking about for years.

No, not buy, we Eminent Domain that shit as part of leasing the spectrum that We The People own.

MP3 has no patent encumbrances or licensing fees....

Get a more resilient bike that can handle a variety of terrain. You are commuting, use something more practical than a ultra lightweight bike.

MS already has 'gatekeeper' in the latest windows 10. Start>Settings>Apps and features. The top option is to choose to restrict to store apps or not.
