So, it used to be that you could run away from the thing given uneven enough terrain but now I guess hiding is your only chance, at least until it runs out of power. Or does the hunter-killer model come standard with deep IR vision?
If you've ever been to an authentic Chinese restaurant you'd already know this. Of course, most Americans think fish are only fillets or breaded sticks.
Arabella. Lark & Roe. Mae. NuPro. Small Parts. You might not know it from their names, but these brands all belong to Amazon
Why does no one know these brands belong to Amazon and what happened to "Amazon Basics"? OK, they might want to differentiate another level from "Basic" but why not "Amazon Supreme" or whatever... when I got to Safeway I know "Private Selection" is the house brand, OK, no problem. At Costco, it's "Kirkland", again, no problem. WTF good are a bunch of stealth brands?
are they reliable and safe enough to use on your front lawn
Never mind reliable and safe - it would get stolen from a US front yard before it could break down or hurt anyone. At most one of these could do a back yard hidden away from the street.
Apple is too busy making custom emojis to care about properly testing their phones.
In all seriousness how does noticeably bad reception make it past QA? And then there's the recurring v.something "causes the battery to run out extra fast" thing that also no one in the testing department ever notices. Does Apple onshore keep forgetting to put items like this in the checklist for offshore QA who never does a thing except exactly what they're told?
Public employees' transportation unions have a lot of political clout. Even if you can get driverless light rail trains installed in a major city there would still be a "driver" required to sit in the control booth pulling a salary and racking up a pension.
Does anyone remember the story earlier this morning: Schmidt predicting a second internet run by China. Obviously the time to get in on the action is now, and now is a bit too late. Google is just playing catch-up.
Look at the videos of the NTSB tests: straight into a brick wall and sliding perfectly sideways into a pole. OK, maybe on a rare occasion an accident like that somehow happens but then look at the IIHS test videos. More likely oncoming traffic is partially into the lane so realistic head on collisions are offset halfway or so. And getting hit in the side is more likely to be t-boned by another car at an intersection and not sliding into a pole and the difference in shape of the impacting object has a huge difference in the outcome.
You didn't think the industry spent billions lobbying against net neutrality without expecting to make it all back, did you?
Let's all repeat this until we can remember it: blanket throttling a given connecting device because it reached a monthly limit has nothing to do with net neutrality. Net neutrality is about not throttling per-content traffic at different rates.

... words combined with each other: racists nutcases and people looking for something to be offended by.
Guinness sells beer. Guinness does not sell wine. This is empirical data. Is it incomplete?
Yes.
Diago, the owner of Guinness, also owns a large percentage of Moet Hennesy.
then you need to print it out, then you need to submit it to the courthouse, then you need to appear in court.
Unfortunately for everyone on the end of a frivolous suit made even easier by this, they have to appear in court too.
Good thinking. I should get all my advice from Slashdot from now on.
Ye gods, no, please, not all your advice. Only get all your LEGAL advice from Slashdot.
I'm just tired of the "unlicensed taxi" whining - taxi licenses are a scam.
Delivering food is not unlicensed taxiing.
And before you ask if fish have faces, they do:
If you've ever been to an authentic Chinese restaurant you'd already know this. Of course, most Americans think fish are only fillets or breaded sticks.
Wait, how does a nuclear reactor get used as a nuclear bomb again?
When it gets dropped from an airplane.
the grocery store had a special aisle for the generic brand items, the packaging was all bright yellow.
You may be thinking of either "Yellow Pack" (UK) or "Back to Basics" (USA). Ironically, by definition those were both brands.
it is also one of the things that gets the kooks, wingnuts and fanatics all riled
I must be way behind on the kook news; since when was the speed of light in a given medium not constant per observer?

California has the best shipping ports for heavy cargo
Yeah, the *ports* are great. Too bad about the dock workers unions.
Facebook lets you make your own account for free.
The largest football stadium in the world becomes rather fucking worthless without any football players.
I thought football stadiums are best used for rock concerts.
Will it bring people together to solve the problem and care for each other or will it make us even more isolated and insulated?

No, and that's why I don't mind the extra step of copy and paste password from keepass. that's exactly why it isn't vulnerable to this kind of thing.

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety has much more realistic tests.
Yet another nail in Hong Kong's independence coffin.
