This is a tech website. What are some tech related ways in which we could respond ? Aside from spreading viruses to their centrifuges, maybe we could drop 1000s of satellite communicators down to the NK people, sure some would get lost, others fall into government hands, but if only a few fall into the hands of an internal "resistance" it could help gather intelligence or spread western news.
They would not have to be high bandwidth, I'm thinking something like 2-way twitter (but keep it away from POTUS !)
What I care about is when I buy a product and come to suspect later that that the company selling it didn't have any intention of shipping the order. They presumaby just deceived Amazon into passing the order to them so they can collect the money upon feigning shipping the goods using apparently fake tracking numbers and hope that they don't always have to refund the money.
I have to wonder how many people actually follow through and claim their money back, presumably not 100% and even then at least they get to keep your money for a few weeks
have we found a way to get a robot to be POTUS ? That should save on a lot of travel expenses. Just elect new software every 4 years and term limit microsoft and apple.
I am plenty overweight, I did drink a lot of diet coke but I gave it up a few months ago when there were reports that the sweeteners are causing dementia. My weight has increased since I gave up (and no, I have not started drinking full fat coke). My problem is the usual too many calories in / too few expended. Anecdotally of course I can't say that the diet coke was my downfall so far as weight is concerned.
I'm not sure these people are republicans or democrats, so much as easily-swayed people who are susceptable to the war on the meaning of words that has probably always gone on.
This mixes with a peculiar form of "sour grapes" from people who may not have had a chance to get into a university (and that somehow feel they don't benefit from there being doctors, engineers and politicians that did) to make a fertile environment for an irresponsible opportunist to swing a wrecking ball against what truly makes the country great
It's time that responsible politicians called out this cheap attempt to stir outrage to win votes to the detriment of the country. If there is an argument to be made that universities and free thought benefit humanity, I hold the politicians that are too lazy to make that case as much to blame as the cynics that tear us down.
No they won't. For my first autonomous car I want the computers and sensors fitted into a 1970s dodge power wagon with hillbilly armor, and a hammock for the driver.
Add: advise passengers on how to tackle incidents voluntarily in flight and how to cooperate with authorities, just a few tips. Print it on the seat-back safety card too
Add: drop off carry-on bags at check-in and pick up securely in the gate area, scan/sniff them in bulk on their way to the gate, associate them with passengers and track by RFID and phone App. take measures to assure that passengers can only pick up their own bags and that the bags are handled gently
Add: stroll-through body scanners for all passengers with RFID enabled ID documents. Use AI to flag issues and redirect all remaining TSA team to pulling people aside if the scanner shows up anything anomalous as passengers walk through. TSA can match ID to boarding passes using the airline booking system
Add: do away with special perks for certain classes of passenger. Let the 1st class suffer with the unwashed, no buying your way through. That should spur some improvements
Add: Fire management that has poor red team test results.
There should be no queues in any unsecured area under normal operation
I thought the states ran their own elections to choose electoral college members and the EC members voted at the national level for president. It's the presidential election that has triggered the most concern, but I'm sure there is concern about house and senate, perhaps even state level seats too, but these are all issues that affect how each state is represented and are proper matters for a state to research (perhaps with support from the federal gov).
This attempt by the administration to fish for anything they might use to bolster their fantasy that Trump won the popular vote has nothing to do with a search for the truth.
I loved banned book week, when my kids were encouraged to read books that had been banned at some time and discuss the reasons behind the ban. In florida they'll have to make it banned book month now.
damn - went to go on to say that surely there would be some reduction expected if the min wage hike pushed some workers above the $19 threshold. Looks like I confused the the markup with my LT and GT signs !
I'm sure they already accounted for this, but the thing that struck me as I was listening to the explanations on the radio was that they considered low wage to be $19 and were no longer categorized as low wage.
All very well to turn up the sensitivity to max and predict something. Not so easy to continue to predict things with the sensitivity turned down to the point where false positives don't flood the system.

Which conservative value is at issue here ?
That's when you deploy the temporary speed bumps to mess with their minds. Leave them there for a few weeks then redeploy elsewhere.
I don't care if Amazon has its own labels.

Maybe we can thank them for taking such good care of the loan documentation in the storage closets.
If financial institutions don't make ever increasing gains out of handling the crypto currencies they will replace the with something more lucrative.
nicely done
What makes you think that farmers are not intelligent - or even have degrees in agriculture ?

So the name Starship troopers was gone ?

This isn't about changing position on anything, it's about pulling together data to cherry pick over to support a predetermined outcome.

well a dollar is 0.77 pounds at the moment so 25 dollars is about 8750 grams

We should outsource being rich or automate it for better efficiency.

once in a century ! I've seen grid power go out in my city at least once during most years. Usually it's birds frying themselves.
Apparently that was a South Shields, UK accent.
could it also be used to predict impeachment ?
