Blind spot monitoring is so useless if you know how to adjust your mirrors. Every rental car I've driven that's had a BLIS system didn't tell me anything the mirrors couldn't tell me faster. Then again, I adjust my mirrors on anything I drive to where I don't see the side of the vehicle in them, I had to learn that trick on my own. They didn't teach that in driver's education.
Do you understand how services on the internet work and how access to the internet in general happens? You can't "attach" servers to another's network for free. What you're talking about is peering which the backbone providers offer freely to each-other in order for there to be a functional internet. Netflix can and does pay to attach CDNs directly to the networks of retail providers like Comcast and Charter.
My previous one wasn't quite as bad as that. However, he felt he was the SME on everything. Not just IT, the entire universe. He was better than you and he knew this because he wasn't you. He constantly spoke about others behind their back, lamented women taking temp disability under doctor's orders while pregnant. He said the biggest problem was the users hated IT... but by the time I left I knew that IT was hated not because of being the rules police and process police, but that the IT director was a toolbox.
You are incorrect. The only privately owned and operated airport with commercial passenger service in the Untied States is in Branson, Missouri. Private airfields exist but none offer scheduled commercial passenger service.
You make light of anti-gambling sentiment, but to some it's as serious as a heart-attack.
Anti-gambling in schools was so pants-on-head ridiculous back in the 90's where I grew up; I couldn't bring a board game to school with a regular D6. Shit you not, if it had Arabic or Roman Numerals that was okay because that was a "number cube". But if that fucker had spots to denote the value of the face it was considered "gambling paraphernalia" Didn't matter if the D6 was in a box labeled "MONOPOLY" it'd get confiscated and you'd never get it back.
People misconstrue a historian's inability to explain as an inability to figure things out. Just because history can't say how Roman's made their concrete doesn't mean Chemists can't analyze samples and find ways of recreating and improving upon their recipe.
Just like the myth that ancient Mesopotamian cultures couldn't take on the massive construction projects they did, it was more their own ethnic bias thinking that those cultures were primitive screwheads compared to modern European cultures.
Bricklayers have been told machines are coming for their jobs for decades and it has yet to happen in spite of some REALLY good attempts at mechanizing the task.
Seriously, exactly what you said. I'm sick and tired of being accused of defending pedophiles when I raise constitutional objections to certain Law Enforcement actions. I want criminals brought to justice, not released because of a technicality, or law enforcement got lazy and couldn't follow the law. I also want my rights protected. The desire to effectively prosecute criminals and protect constitutional rights are not mutually exclusive.
P.S. In more polite company I sometimes refer to the FBI as the Feckless Bunch of Idiots.
Given Geek Squad's past history of technicians scouring drives for customer nude photos... it doesn't surprise me that there might still be a bit of that culture lingering and techs going well beyond the purview of what is necessary to retrieve data.
I never did that when I was doing data retrievals freelance. I just cared about finding as many files as I could even with un-delete utilities. The only thing that would give me reason to call Law Enforcement would be file names and directories at which point I stop what I'm doing and leave it to LEOs to handle.
Did you have the Bose active noise-canceling headset? I have a 3M Peltor passive set of muffs for the range, but they don't completely eliminate the airplane noise like my QC25's do. Plus I can still hear safety announcements on the plane. The $300 price tag for them is $10 for the audio playback and $290 for the active noise cancellation. I've also found the noise cancellation to be rather good when working in a server room. Really saves me from hearing the white-noise of fans for the rest of the day.
1) G-suite with domain required. There's no way to subscribe to this as an add-on to existing infrastructure, which is where Slack thrives currently.
2) No ability to invite people outside your org. Again, Slack has Google beat here. You can invite (sub)contractors to your Slack instance without having to create internal credentials for them.
Mind you, I hate using these chat apps for work. However, as someone that's had to manage Slack for an organization it's still the bees knees for teams that incorporate it.
A friend of mine was a locksmith until he passed away. His license was just a registration so he could gain access to databases so he could reproduce vehicle keys without an original. When I worked at a Hardware store I cut keys and re-keyed household locks we sold without a locksmith license.
I think that argument stems back from a time when the Barber was more than the dude that cut your hair. He was also the guy that removed that ugly thing growing in your armpit (with a doctor's supervision) or stitched you shut if you cut yourself. The barber was also the town dentist. The barber pole itself owes its origins to the barber/surgeon/dentist who cleaned bloody rags out in front of the shop.
Still though, in a modern world where indoor plumbing, sanitation, and qualified surgeons exist the argument for licensing barbers and beauticians is moot.
It appears you've never heard of the German-American Bund. You think they all just died off because we got into a shooting war with Germany? I mean we still have people in the South thinking the confederacy will somehow rise from the dead. It isn't a stretch to imagine bundists passed along their idiocy onto their progeny and far less time has passed since the Bund was active than the Confederate States of America.
That's not how antibiotics work. Antibiotics merely make bacteria vulnerable to your auto-immune response which otherwise is unable to fight it off. Surgery used to be VERY risky before antibiotics due to secondary infection. The problem is physicians writing a script for Amoxicillin to someone with a cold or the flu. Viruses aren't affected by antibiotics.
It doesn't matter how strong your auto-immune system is, if you get a bacterial infection you're not going to get over it on your own.
Interesting, I tried not too long ago on my Gen1 Chromecast and I got a black screen on the TV from my laptop. I thought DRM might have had something to do with it. Might have to try again. It could just be a flaw with the G1 Chromecast.
Dogs begging for human food has nothing to do with how human food tastes. Dogs have a very rudimentary sense of taste and far fewer tastebuds on their tongues than humans. The dog knows it's food the second you bring it into the house, even before you open the packaging. Their olfactory sense is that well-developed. My mom bought me Omaha steaks last Christmas, my dog knew what was in that cooler the second the UPS man dropped it at the front door. Everything was vacuum sealed in boxes which were then sealed inside the styrofoam cooler with dry-ice.
What causes dogs to beg is you've inadvertently associated their action with reward. Dogs respond far better to positive reinforcement and food-motivated dogs are extremely easy to train. The key to stop begging behavior once its set in is to associate reward with a different action on the dog's part. This takes patience and consistency. However, it can be trained out of a dog.
Second that, mine LOVES to find AAA batteries and roll them around. When he started scattering my rechargeables all over the place I started hiding them in a desk drawer. Now he wines and paws at the drawer, he knows I took "his" toys away and where I took them to. I've bought him $100 in toys to play with, including ones he can roll around, he still wants the damn batteries.
Fire isn't as easy to verify, but let's say a toddler got into your wallet and put some $100's in your cross-cut shredder. You can send the contents of the shredder to the Bureau of Printing and Engraving for mutilated currency redemption. Their forensic experts will sift through the cuttings and identify every bill little Timmy fed the shredder.
Here's a full detail of the mutilated currency redemption: https://www.moneyfactory.gov/s... Documenting the fate of every bill printed is as important as replacing it for the person that lost it.
I concur about stopping their monopoly. However, this repeal of Net Neutrality does NOTHING to help with that. I'll give up Net neutrality when we get nation-wide OTMR, ban exclusive franchises, and enact a moratorium on state laws prohibiting communities from building out their own infrastructure. At that point we'll likely have so many upstarts that net neutrality can be the ethical principle it used to be.

This exact thing happened to the team developing Factorio. They no longer give away review keys to anyone.

Not inferior enough to justify NIVIDIA's price premium for G-sync. At least not to my eyes.

I opted out of the EAS weather alerts too. Most good weather apps provide a much less obnoxious notification on your device.
