Your imagination needs work. What if someone uses speakers? Either connected to a PC or while using the TV as a screen? You could easily have these frequencies playing off a website or in presumed bumper space at the beginning of streaming video, clips on twitter or streamable, etc. They could be set to very high decibles compared to the rest of the clip, and since you can't hear in that range you would still have no idea it even played, even if your volume level was set to a normal amount.
I assume they repeated the exploit an inordinate number of times to attempt purchasing $250k worth of products. Therefore the intent to defraud Lowes was clear.
Setting aside the biggest reason the Islamists came to power there was because the US and Britain decided to overthrow a democratically elected government and install a puppet in order to control Iranian oil after they wanted to nationalize their oil fields. Their anger didn't just spring up out of their ass.
I may not agree with most of what they do these days, but we kinda brought it upon ourselves with what we did to the country in the decades leading up to 1979...
If its anything like Japan's highspeed network, the trains are linked to seismic alerts and can come to a complete stop within 10 seconds, often before the earthquake even reaches the area.
That was my first thought, given the movie title in question. Had they actually (fully?) cracked AACS 2.0, surely they would have made their first release a more appealing movie?
The Chinese government feeling they need to create their own new encyclopedia to "guide the people" immediately reminds me of them making the new edition of the Newspeak Dictionary from 1984...
And that's just it—the expectation from the general public has been reduced to almost zero. It used to be fansubs thrived due to taking 2+ years (if ever) for series to come out officially. Now you have people whining if there is even a one week delay in the English, as many series receive a simultaneous digital release alongside the Japanese broadcast.
Viz has a number of manga that are simultaneously published in English and Japanese on the street date of the magazine. Yet there is still a large nascent market of scanlations that release days ahead. Excuses I've seen from people amount to "if they have the content finished and sit on it, then its their fault" despite the fact we're talking only a handful of days so that a coordinated release can be made. (Takes a few days for print copies to make it to all corners of the country)
Although to be honest, I believe most of the stuff being released ahead of street date is because of a certain group of individuals called Mangastream that has turned it into a bootlegging business. They do it for the ad revenue on the website, which the Alexa-rank is higher than websites for the actual publishers. Then you have counter-groups that attempt to beat them to release to cost them ad hits. I'm honestly surprised the industry hasn't gone after Mangastream despite them poaching pretty much the entire Top20 best-selling manga series in Japan and receiving millions of hits monthly.
The wrinkle is that this is rarely abided by. Even in the case of comics (manga) that are seeing a dual release in Japanese and English by the publisher, you have groups stealing advance copies of the magazine and putting out hastily prepared translations days before the street date of said magazine. Gotta have that ad revenue, after all. In the past you could make a case for it, as licenses took 1-2+ years to make it overseas, if ever.
It gets really murky though, when you factor in geoblocking. Especially with the case of English, while primary English markets may be served (US/Canada/UK etc), often times they will argue its for people who can speak English but are in countries where the content is blocked.
And yes, the issue isn't so much the fansubs, as the fact 99.9% of the time they aren't just sharing a script, but the entire content.
AMD has been shipping approximately the same CPUs for like 5+ years now. Their last architecture flopped and they've been stalled ever since. Last relevant CPU release they had was the FX-8350, and that is from 2012. Even then, the IPC on them was so low, they benched lower than most i3 offerings.
Shouldn't it be possible to outfit one of these trucks to log not only the actions of the automated system, but also of the human driver? Have human drivers doing their usual routine for a year while also having the automated systems active—But instead of actually controlling the truck, they would merely log the actions they would have taken and any discrepancies between the human driver and automated systems could be analyzed to account for edge-cases.
That is a general statement that still isn't true for everything. Many "modern" people have babies by C-section and use formula instead of breastfeed, and both of those "modern" techniques have been found to be worse for a baby and should be avoided if at all possible.
I think another angle is there is a longstanding behavior for users to not use the built-in Windows browser. The fact the name "changed" from IE to Edge doesn't factor for people. They just go "Oh, this is that Windows browser again? Well, disable as usual and download the one I always use."
The question becomes: Were most of the plot points from Episode 1-3 devised by him before shooting 4-6? Stuff like Obi-Wan precipitating Anakin's reliance on the suit, claiming to not know the droids etc. could just as easily be explained by a lot of the writing from 1-3 being retcon and thereby inconsistent with the script of 4-6.
At first I was shaking my head at how reckless the idea of allowing completely uncertified automation systems on a 3-ton slab of metal hurtling down the road at highway speeds was. Then I remembered this is Florida we're talking about—it certainly can't be any worse than things already are...
It's a trojan horse. They added the telemetry to 7/8 as a recommended update at some point. Now he wants to upsell you on Win10 offering some level of user control over the telemetry. Thing is, you don't have to download the telemetry update. I certainly didn't. And the "user control over telemetry" is percentage-based, certainly not an absolute value.
IE: Users can control 25% of the 1000 points of telemetry data MS collects about you Vs. 0% control of the 20 points of telemetry data in 7/8. You're still getting spied on way more than before.
Color me surprised that a project DeNA was involved with went poorly. They've consistently proven themselves incompetent and I grimaced the day I heard Nintendo announce a partnership with them for mobile.
To play devil's advocate for a moment: A fair playing field would have been airing out both sides dirty laundry to the public. Only outing one side gives a patent advantage to the other side, unless you think this sort of political skullduggery isn't rife across the entire political spectrum?
Except for the part where the autonomous cars don't handle themselves like a real person driving a vehicle does, which causes unexpected behavior that leads to accidents. Google's self-driving car was only liable in 1 accident, I believe, but was found to have done behavior that induced numerous other accidents to occur.
That still doesn't answer to why the taxi will sometimes not show up and not inform you. Its my understanding that with Uber you at least get a notice that the fare has been cancelled.

Yeah, but then you have to live in Indianapolis...

You get what you pay for (usually) I think. Been running several WD RE3 and RE4 drives for 5+ years now and never had any issues with them.

They make cheap wind-up cases for earbuds to prevent the tangling issue.
Even if its only 128kbps MP3 quality, I can definitely hear the difference when the digital signal syncs. The soundstage sounds a lot broader.
I died of mesentery while playing the Oregon Trail card game the other night...

Beware their registry though, I hear its called "Operation Ctrl-Alt-Delete"
