Business owners that replace workers with robots could be made to pay a virtual salary to the worker that got replaced. The robot will still be more efficient than the human, as it can run night and day, in pitch dark, with no air conditioning etc. Enough businesses pay virtual salaries to displaced workers and there'll be a massive pool from which to draw the UBI. Whether anyone figures this out is anyone's guess... haven't really seen it mentioned as a proposal.
DRM rootkit, removal of "other OS" option from ps3 after some people had bought it specifically for that reason, don't really know of anything recent that compares to those two but then again i haven't been watching for anything, I pretty much auto ignore anything I see with Sony in the name now.
Yeah, after I thought about it some more I figured on ceramics as well, didn't consider optical though. Would anodes help the corrosion? (All my experience with underwater crap is limited to ~100' lol)
It's a comic book, the man's done good work in his more serious, realistic novels, let's see what he can do in a different format. Another favorite of mine, Alistair Reynolds, pretty much sticks strictly to known physics, no FTL, etc but will bend his rule for the sake of a story, to great effect, so I'm not discounting this before giving it a try over the time travel though i agree it has the potential to be problematic if handled clumsily.
The concept sounds interesting, and like something Gibson could really do justice to. I've liked everything else he's written, loved a lot of them, I'm picking this up. Glad to hear someone confirm its good!
Couldn't the whole thing be embedded in some type of fire resistant epoxy puck? Nothing would be ripping free from anything else and it'd probably be pretty waterproof to boot.
I had a box a while back set up with chromium, the open source version of chrome, but don't know exactly how close it is to an out of the box Chromebook experience... ran all chrome apps fine, though.
Yes, that too... Still didn't answer the question. They tell you if you're doing nothing wrong you have nothing to hide, so again, why were they hiding the mics? I can see unobtrusive mics installed at a bus stand, but under rocks and in bushes? If they don't think they're doing anything wrong why not just have them in a huge grid at quarter block intervals? You have no expectation of privacy in public, I get it, but if two people are sitting on a bench in an otherwise empty park, is that realistic to not expect at least a degree of privacy? This is the equivalent of an agent hiding in the bushes with a mic, just trolling trying to catch random people. What happened to needing warrants for surveillance?
Would that matter if it's a two party state in regards to audio recordings? There's a reason all those cameras in gas stations etc don't record audio, some states require permission from both parties (not just the one recording), or they run afoul of wiretap laws if I remember correctly. Caveat: IAANAL
I've been told if you're doing nothing wrong what do you have to hide so many times I lost track a long time ago. So, if they're doing nothing wrong why were they trying to hide this?

I also had a galaxy s3 on Sprint (3g CDMA) that could talk and use data at the same time.

Because regular firearms won't work in schools, only assault weapons. Because... magic?

Or maybe we wouldn't hear about it at all because it'd be so common as to be normalized and expected.
You missed one... inheritance.

Yo, dawg, I herd you liek microphones so I put a microphone in your microphone so you can snoop while you snoop.
Well, the Chinese middle class is doing pretty well.
