One aimed at discomforting the comfortable by casting light on their actions, attitudes, and undue influence; the other is a money-bagged a-hole that wishes to destroy the very concept of Freedom of Speech.
Having to decide which one is worse? Yeah, really close call.
Tastycrats, Fingerlicans... NO DAMN DIFFERENCE. Both corporate whores, lock stock and barrelhead. Look behind the red meat and dog whistle curtains and see the same fake wizard blowing CEOs.
If Trump really wanted an effective attack on Oh My God That Is A Terrifying Laugh Bezos, he would focus on this, as it would strike a cord with a good chunk of the US populace.
Actually, I hope he doesn't as the thought of him being POTUS is more scary than even Jeff.
"We'd study these things, but nobody is going to get filthy rich off of it so there's no real incentive to spend the money."
Add R&D for new antibiotics to that list.
While there are a few defenders of the industry on this site, the truth is they aren't in the curing business any more; they're in the maintenance (read addiction) business.
Amazon is rapidly becoming just a bazaar of sketchy products and even sketchier vendors. Just last night I was reading about some OTC eye ointment. Three of the reviews were 1 star, pointing out what they received was actually product that had already been recalled due to quality issues (like shards of glass in my eyes, was one reviewers phrase).
But since it wasn't directly provided by Amazon, they seem to see their role now more as an ISP (hey, not our problem; caveat emptor).
I suspect shady crap like this doesn't happen in the EU, at least not with such a prominent retailer.
We need to capture people like Mateen alive, so that their minds can be disassembled using the latest techniques to root out the ISIS command trees in Western countries. Every dead terrorist is a good terrorist, but it's also one we can't get information from.
Congrats: you're as monstrous as them.
Also as dumb as a bag of hammers by advocating behavior that justifies their cause, aka running Bin Laden's playbook.
If there were honest statistics available about this criminal activity being conducted by actual Highway Men, they would no doubt show the vast majority of victims are of course, minorities.
There are several reasons that the nightmare land now called Oklahoma was one of the last admitted continental states.
A lot of ransomware reached victims via spear-phishing campaigns or booby-trapped adverts
And this is why people use ad blockers.
And why anti-ad block sites like Forbes, WSJ should be vilified by making the Web less safe for everyone; they want all the ad money, but zero the responsibility of verifying / sanitizing their ads (which is a perfect example of the rampant greed the worship).
If The Donald does glom on to the White House [shudder], one of the first things that will happen is that the Freedom of Information Act will be XOed out of existence (then rubber-stamped by a Red majority Supreme Court followed by the GOP-controlled Congress jumping on board to kill it permanently).
Cockroaches despise it when the kitchen light is turned on.
This is why the Next Generation of Open Source *has* to be hardware.
It is insane how much trust we still place in component manufacturers / assemblers that can easily be lazy, incompetent, compromised by TLAs of every country, or all three.
Unless they own the fabs, they can't guarantee the TLAs won't pown the very silicon laid down by their industry buddies. Remember when GCHQ wanted certain parts of The Guardian's laptops smashed to bits? Yeah.
This is a stupid question, but I've always wondered why old (very old, unused for decades) antibacterials can't be resurrected with a restored effectiveness. I liken it to the idea of rotating crops so the field soils aren't totally stripped of nutrients by planting the same crop year after year.
I mean: what does in benefit rather simple organisms to continue to pass along resistance to a spectrum of anti-biotic that their ancestors hadn't been exposed to in decades (and that's how many bacterial generations)? Isn't there a 'carrying capacity' or 'memory limit' to what can be added to their code that has to be slowly deprecated / de-prioritized just for physical space constraints? Asserting they have the Borg-like ability to perfectly add to their defenses without end, sounds a bit too apocalyptic to me.

The FBI is gathering dirt on current / future politicians and judges to cement their extra-legal dominance for perpetuity.
This is why FBI HQ is still named after that tyrant Hoover.
Bubbles could do something pretty freakin' sweet with one of these mommas.

Surprised that the Chinese didn't lock down their DNC espionage better in order to keep the drunk Russians out.

It's only an 'Imperial Presidency' when the party I hate does it.

They are, in the street parlance, Drug Dealers.

Mozilla has money!
1996 Camry with 334,000 miles on it - and the original ball joints.
Anyone defending such an early failure of a massively expensive car is either being an apologist or is stunningly clueless about modern automobiles.

Well, being scary is a big part of their business, especially in October.
Until they cause a real accident as they are updating Waze while fucking driving.
Destination: Void by Frank Herbert
I've always thought it would work better as a play than a movie, but the production values would have to be pretty high.
I am now officially a curmudgeon, as I cannot understand why anyone would willingly have something like an Echo in their home.
Hey, cats: stop belling yourself.
