Because no software is perfect, including Tesla's autopilot software, and Tesla is very clear that the autopilot is only to assist the driver. Human beings write software, and we aren't perfect at it.
No software is perfect, including autopilot software: Tesla is very clear about that. Granted, the term "autopilot" is a poor naming choice for a feature that is not an autopilot ("driver assistance" would be a better label IMO), but that is not a legal issue. As Tesla stated, "The fundamental premise of both moral and legal liability is a broken promise, and there was none here." In other words, Tesla does not market its cars as self-driving, and it is very clear that the autopilot is just there to _assist_ the driver, not *replace* the driver.
So the new "amdflaws.com" domain was created 20 days ago by some unknown group that hides the domain owner via a proxy. Yeah, that's a totally legitimate research firm...not. It's just another FUD site. "Exploits" that require either 1) physical access to your machine and a "specially crafted BIOS update" or 2) administrative access to the system? Big deal...once you give admin access to malicious software, your system can be compromised a thousand different ways anyway.
Everyone would have Internet *anyway* even if they didn't dump cable TV, so as I see it, the cost of having Internet isn't a factor in paying for Netflix (assuming your ISP doesn't charge you by the GB, of course).
Some people are allergic to soy, so it's more than just a "taste" issue: the blatantly false advertising it as "chicken" is a potential medical issue for some people.
That salary goes a long way, and I'd gladly double my taxes to increase the services everyone here is getting.
In that case, the IRS will not mind one bit if you send them a nice check on April 15th for the extra $20,000 or so. Still want to pay double your current taxes?
If however you meant that you would be glad if the *rest of us* paid double taxes, I'll have to say, "No, thank you."
It's always easy to spend other people's money. Which is why so many politicians have no issues with spending more and more each year.
Terminal velocity was not a factor here. Terminal velocity is reached when air resistance for a falling object matches the rate at which Earth's gravity wants to continue accelerating it. This only occurs for objects that aren't already entering the atmosphere from space at several thousand miles per hour. To put it in simple terms, "Dropping a pea-sized rock from, say, 100,000 feet is completely different from shooting the same pea-sized rock out of huge rail gun at 17,000 mph."
To simplify the example further, which makes a bigger hole: a bullet dropped from 1000 feet up or a bullet *fired from a gun* 1000 feet up?

Exactly, which is why I use an always-on VPN that has its own no-logging DNS servers and whose VPN client implements DNS leak protection.
