    ... who has to win the most by cutting water supply? MADURO. A people preoccupied with finding the basic needs to stay alive i way more easy to control than a well fed and hydrated people that demonstrates against you. As a bonus: blames the decadent western countries.

  3. It's actually not the fact ist's processed ... on Eating Processed Foods Tied To Shorter Life, Study Suggests (theguardian.com) · · Score: 2

    ... it is the way and procedure food is processed. Foodprocessing factories put way too much sugar and salt in their products, and of course other substitutes that are just not right in food (cellulose, fibers etc.). Proper, wealthy processed food is possible, think of things like greatgrandmothers used to preserve food.

    ... playing pvp Dark Age of Camelot being radar ganked anytime I got into the frontiers. There were multiple windows applications that intercepted network traffic from the game client to parse the player position information in a overlayscreen or secondary monitor.

    Just why the hell pubg never acted before is bad as well. They just did not care as long dollars swamped in.

  8. The real problem is quite .... on A Sleeping Driver's Tesla Led Police On A 7-Minute Chase (sfchronicle.com) · · Score: 2

    ... the opposite of John Simpson's statement. Tesla cars can actually drive better than their owners and furthermore, conventional car manufacturers are shitting their pants after this 'incident' that also proves that Tesla cars aren't easy to carjack on a freeway. The highway police had a such a hard job at stopping the car I think you can assume that it could easily defend itself.

    Who is John Simpson really serving?:
    Tesla declined to comment on the incident, but John Simpson, privacy/technology project director for Consumer Watchdog, calls this proof that Tesla has wrongly convinced drivers their cars' "autopilot" function really could perform fully autonomous driving...

    This is just fakenews:
    "They've really unconscionably led people to believe, I think, that the car is far more capable of self-driving than actually is the case. That's a huge problem."

  9. I concur. He was remarkably humane and in a shrill contrast to the current.

    ... true democracy left in the whole of europe and perhaps the world. The Swiss have more direct power over their government than any other country. Not only their watches and railway system are superior but also their hart felt urge for honest politics.

  19. We think speeds must go up while ... on FCC Proposes To Maintain US Broadband Standard of 25Mbps Down, 3Mbps Up (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    ... ISP's think prices must go up, so this proposition is just a justification to raise prices.

    When your base product even doesn't need to match 25/3 trump's administration thinks it's just fine. Keep 'em under control is more their goal.
    That's why net neutrality was killed.

    Even the EU uses that as a practice nevertheless what they say.

  20. ... are there other circumstances hidden from the public?

    To me as an outsider it seems most government digital security agencies are more prioritized on spying civilians than actually securing the state they're operating for.
    So securing their own assets is not on top of the list as it is described in the article.
    But also contractors might have a deal in this, as soon as the security has been tightened they might not be able to perform duties or they're not necessary anymore.
    Perhaps a combination of a multitude of factors prevent improvement, including funding and administration?

  21. I'ts the money loundry ... on Amazon's Curious Case of the $2,630.52 Used Paperback (nytimes.com) · · Score: 1

    ... same way as in big MMO's.

    Here is how it works:
    - offer worthless items for ludirous prices, normal customers will not buy
    - transfer currency (bt pref) to a only one time to use account and pay the ludicrous price, delete or abandon this account directly to minimize tracks
    - withdraw the laundered money from your account

    So you turn your blackmarket money into ligit cash.

    How I know this: i play a variety of MMO's, and wondered why just like the author in the article, it just didn't add up so I had to look into it.
