I'm a tmobile customer and frankly this has annoyed me. I've been hit by it when I have to travel out into the remote expanses where I'm roaming or in a weak tmobile signal area. It does ring but no voicemail nothing, just ring ring ring.. It's annoying as fuck.
Now, I'm doubly pissed at tmobile but I'm also pissed that I'm not the one that'll be compensated for my trouble, it'll be the feds.. Why should they pocket the loot if I'm the guy that's been wronged?
Here I had my heart all set on getting Clippy back onto my Windows 10 You're Totally Fucked Spring Edition and they give me File Manager? WTF!?!? Talk about lame.
I have to update my location on Four Square, my status on Facebook and Tweet about the nice cat I saw on the street. You were saying something about privacy and consent?
As opposed to the latest Star Wars where the ships land and explode perfectly? Or the version where Lucas made the Death Star explode better? Maybe if the Obelisk turned out to be a Decepticon?
There's a lot of examples of contemporary, "unwatchable" films. This one is still considered a classic even with all of it's flaws.
yes I always trust a company that has never built a vehicle, done any sophisticated hardware engineering/integration or any complex software development to test the safety of a vehicle weighing thousands of pounds moving at city street velocities.
Uber: Let's grab an old Volvo and strap some cameras on it and test in live situations with unwitting test subjects on the highways. Lawyers: Take our card, we'll be calling you shortly.
If a company has liability coverage and their vehicles are compliant with existing vehicle use laws, why do they need the extra layer of bureaucracy? Wait till they're put into use on an every-day basis and you'll see the cash roll in and the extra bureaucratic nuances of taxing per mile/minute etc.
The bureaucracy is expanding to meet the needs of the expanding bureaucracy.
If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it.

It's about money, California will do anything to protect it's stream of revenue to dump into any libtard project moonbeam chooses, that's why Uber needs a permit.
Not a feature, just a bug. I think the relentless push for autonomous self-driving cars is too big right now but this incident will make those companies think twice especially when a few ambulance chasers come calling.
That even on their best day bright, intelligent people can have a bad day? Maybe he didn't get laid or maybe he did and thought of a different angle. You'll never know the exact answer unless you were there so stop speculating.
I get hit thousands of times a day from port scanners, http/SSH vulnerability probes daily from IP addresses all pointing back to China, Korea, the Middle East and Amazon.. You're just now noticing?
This whole "Russian Interference" paranoia is nothing new. The platforms have changed from Radio Free Europe/Voice of America to NGOs and Social Media. They do it to us, we do it to them and it's extremely cheap to do it because of social media. Take out an ad, program a few bots.. you have a disinformation campaign. The fact that this was overblown into the need for a special prosecutor is that we have a government run by idiots who were raised by TV programs and not by parents. Our new so-called leaders are caught up in endless tirades looking for anything that'll get them that 2 minute soundbite on the news but screw that, there's social media which greatly democratizes anyone's opinion no matter how ridiculous it is. Shit, 90% or more of what news puts out there is now social media generated or comes from so called journalists. Hey podcaster, blogger out there. Journalism, real journalism requires that you investigate, question and then publish not publish and hope it sticks.
Yes, I'm an older American and the way our political system, our FBI, our DOJ, Congress, the WH and especially traditional media, all of it has been thoroughly adolescent and they all need to grow the fuck up. Our peaceful transition of government has now been forever affected because regardless of what party wins or who gets to sit in the WH, the other side will resort to crybaby, seditious tactics to get their way. Instead of being constructive and working on finding common ground we're all about lunatic has-been comedians holding up beheaded effigies for shock value.

it wasn't the movie, it was you.
Facebook gets caught hawking your data and has to scramble to release that project that Jerry was working on down the hall in a hurry.

Thanks for validating my point.

It took Luke three movies to get to be a full Jedi, some chick from the desert did it in one movie. That's how you kill a franchise.
