What's the issue here? Shit if the car is driving you to your destination then what you do inside the car is your own business. Besides we all worry about people becoming too absorbed in games/VR and other tech that we'd face population decline. This way the nerds can reproduce.
Well we all know there's a market for selling vulnerabilities. I'm thinking the FBI bought one in the case of the San Berdoo iPhone. I'm also thinking the iPhone bad press on either side of the issue has something to do with Apple's bad quarter. The Encryption Wars have begun.
I actually find that a government agency letting software developers know of vulnerabilities is actually refreshing. Sure, they probably exploited those same vulnerabilities but at least we'll get them out in the open so they can be addressed.
More than half of Americans think the whole election process is rigged, not just nominations.
Oh here's more
More than half of Americans don't care to actually catch up on candidates' positions or who for that matter care who they vote for. They vote along party lines because that's what dear old grannie did or those nice politicians promised me free shit.
All these companies bitch for more H1-B visas and then wonder why there aren't any US CS grads lining up? Seriously this is the biggest two-faced bunch of bullshit to come out of Corporate America in awhile.
All legislative Powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives.
The more I listen to members of congress the more I want the stocks brought back. Set up about 30 of them on the Mall and then I'll own the rotten tomato concession. When any member of congress or the president fucks up, it's in the stocks for three days getting pelted with rotten tomatoes.
When the FISA court starts questioning how the FBI and the NSA are doing their job you know there's a problem. I think this is the first time I've ever heard a FISA judge question the governments credibility albeit indirectly describing it as a lack of candor. The surveillance programs need to be brought out into the light and the FISA court need to be abolished, it's a dark government corner that needs to see the light of day.
"The court was extremely concerned about NSA's failure to comply with its minimization procedures—and potentially" a provision in federal law
So, the FBI and NSA both went beyond the scope of the court's instructions and may have violated the law. "Extremely concerned?" yeah there's nothing wrong here.
I'm curious at how all of this is Blackmail? It's more damaging to keep this information classified than it is to disclose it. This legislation isn't threatening the POTUS because after all unless they can raise a 2/3 majority in both houses it won't become law without his signature. Again, declassify the information and make it public since It'll probably be more embarrassing for the US anyway on how we missed a lot of indicators that something was happening and that the US government was incompetent. As a US citizen I'd like to know who our friends are and who our enemies are and ultimately the truth over the attacks.
On the flip side, the Saudis have been conducting economic war on the US and Canada by flooring oil prices with over production. They want the world hooked on oil and want to still dominate the ability to control that market. Threatening to sell $750B worth of assets pales by comparison to the damage OPEC and Saudi policies have done to the US already. The US government has stood by and let this happen and frankly I'm more disgusted that we seem to be in the back pockets of the Saudi's in letting this happen.
It's been down since the Great R but we're at $140B for FY2016, how much more should we spend there billy? Under Dubya it was up to was about $20B more.

Get Billy Mays to use his stuff, it'll fix it. You may also get your clothes cleaned at the same time.
well if it looked like a VW camper bus with a Z-bed in back with a Grateful Dead sticker in the back window.... Definitely better.

My Lyft app looks awfully attractive about now.

You need to run regsvr32 with admin rights anyway. If you're dumb enough to register an unsafe/unknown component you deserve to get hacked.
I need a 6000 sq ft mansion, two swimming pools, a fleet of luxury Italian sports cars and oh a private jet and a villa on Lake Como.
Take care of those "basics" for me and I'll stop going to work.
You are a part of the human race.

From Article I of the Constitution
All legislative Powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives.
It's known as the vesting clause.
I just read the constitution, you should too.
The only bipartisanship you ever see is when they finally sign a bill and everybody says, 'Gee, isn't that wonderful?

The House of Reps + Senate = Congress how exactly being 1/2 of Congress is the Senate not Congress?

They did when I went to school. It's probably been abolished like cursive writing.

Well, it's a rich guy wanting something, so Reps might listen.
That's exactly the reason they shouldn't listen.

May as well walk around naked
Please don't
Which the government already has. Go back to sleep we're here for your protection.
Sorry I had to.
