  1. neither do they live in Montreal, Calgary, Edmonton or Vancouver :-(

  2. legacy taxi drivers ? http://lmgtfy.com/?q=taxi+driv...

  3. This is not my point. S.E. is not just email dump or bot, but the very day job of politicians, ie. "psychological manipulation of people into performing actions or divulging confidential information".

  4. Aren't elections, in general, nothing more but a huge social engineering scheme at scale ?

    Look at Canada's Trudeau winning the election on a 10 billions deficit and featuring a 30 billions one in his first budget ? Or is it just "social engineering" when the "wrong side" wins ?

    Actually, the Keystone pipeline primary function is to import Canadian oil from Alberta to the US.

    I'll take a bet: you live in the city.

    Your whole lifestyle from cheap China crap to your preferred brew to your daily mocha latte from Starfuck to mere food on the shelves of grocery stores rely on one, and only one thing: cheap hydro-carbon energy. You cannot grow/raise your own food at affordable scale without these. So please, keyboard warrior, give us a break.

    US gun laws are perfectly sane ;-)

  9. you are pulluting your own air by using the US-dominated internet services...

    and then you have to stop, _by regulation_, on a cold winter day to chain up, or just to re-fuel, or to clear custom. Good luck doing that with a machine.

    The speed of light in a vaccum is a constant, death/reproduction are just a concepts.

    it's whatever is necessary to justify fear-mongering. Once upon a time, it was the idea of a supernatural being to explain why the sun goes down at night, now it's AI to blame automation or whatever...

    Solving violence is easy... just round up every person commiting a violent act and shoot them twice in the chest, one in the head.

  14. Neil deGrasse Tyson is an old black man not-in-a-whellchair who just as much talking out of his ass. Stop race / gender baiting for a moment...

    So you're saying he's incapable of learning anything that's not related to theoretical physics and cosmology?

    Yes, and by this joined Bill Nye and Neil deGrasse Tyson's club of "scientist" talking out of their asses.

  16. Judges are flawed humans being as everybody else... https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

  17. then how do you apply 1st Amendment enforcement to virtual data ? The storage location ? So as such, should ISIS be free to spread their content without restriction (after all, hate speech is still free speech ? [and yes, I believe they should.])

  18. ... without due process.

  19. Obama has done worst...

  20. Judges are much less understanding with the "Constitution" when leftist agenda is at stake, like transgender in the military (Trump is the commander in chief) or immigration ban, or even the 2rd Amendment.

  21. define "borders" in the Internet era ?

  22. not just the IRS, but banks and financial institutions too (via operation choke point).

  23. That's stupid.

    We don't need a dictatorship, when we have our very own religious SJW who are more than happy to trample the first amendment. Why bother with a Christian minority taking power when a much more powerful communist minority is much more likely to?

    FTFY.

  24. You forget POTUS Obama's Regime armed drug cartel with Operation Fast and Furious (with military grade stuff), and POTUS Obama's Regime sanctioned legal businesses with Operation Choke Point.

  25. well, intrusion detection comes to mind. So, yes, "Logging === security".
