A - gun makers have been sued in civil courts, wich are completely different than criminal courts.
B - everyone who has ever sued a gun maker because someone was killed with a gun has lost, namely because it's legally accepted that blaming inanimate objects for what people do with them is idiotic.
Certain size, moving at certain speeds, emitting certain radiowaves...
When you add electronic elements to your detection scheme, a lot of those false positives (like from birds) fall off the radar... pun not intended but certainly appreciated.
The part where everyone finally realizes that the 'two parties' are actually one, with confluent goals, and get off their lazy, too-comfortable asses to do something about it.
I know you just want to dig at creationists, but keep in mind - since "scientific consensus" is considered an alternative to hard evidence, the problem is just as bad on the other end of the spectrum.
Worse, really - at least creationists don't pretend to have scientific backing when they're making shit up.
I really dig the Elio, both as a consumer and a "car guy."
But a sub-10,000 dollar automobile that gets fantastic mileage, in America? I'm afraid that thing challenges too many well established estates to not meet a lot of opposition.
This. Say what you will of Democrats, at least they run on the policies they will implement.
Yea, that's why we have single-payer healthcare, no troops in the ME, and Bush's surveillance machine has been dismantled, right? All promises made by the current Democrat during his campaign.
I'll bet if you read your employment contract carefully, you'll discover that any intellectual property you create while on the clock automatically belongs to your employer. Some places claim ownership over your private projects done off the clock, although I fail to see how that would hold up in court.
So yea, the smart money is on not doing personal projects on company time.
Also, regardless of consent laws, public servants engaged in their public duties in a public place have no legal right to privacy under those circumstances.
Maybe because laws aren't the issue, police department policies (that we don't get to vote for) are. For example, the policy of refusing to hire people who score "too high" on aptitude tests, as evidenced by Jordan v New London. That's just the part of the iceburg we can see.
Since most 10th graders know how to use Google, I don't see that being an issue. You realize that the point you're basically arguing here is, "the only people who should be able to understand a doctor's bill are doctors," right?
I second this, and add - demand a fully itemized bill before you pay a dime. That's how I found out the bastards were trying to charge me full retail price for every implement present in the OR during my operation.

They use a set of well known frequencies, usually 2.4Ghz WiFi
In a dense urban area, there would be dozens or hundreds of 2.4Ghz transmitters close enough to be a threat. A good drone can move fast.
So program the system to target fast-moving, airborne signal points.
Not hard stuff.
Full disclosure (because I know this needs said for some of you): no, I am not actually tripping. That was a joke.

Or maybe that's just the psilocybin talking...

Casio G*Zone One. Doesn't even have a camera.
Verizon likes to pretend they don't stock them, but they do - corporate clients buy that model all the time for their delivery drivers.

Um, the PC industry has been regulated since at least the 1950's, and the Internet was created via a socialist military experiment.
Did you forget the sarcasm tags?
Did they have minivans with screens in the 90's? I was still in Trans Am Mode back then.
Either one.
Just depends on what industry we're discussing.

Yes, because it's perfectly reasonable for a corporation that makes billion dollar mistakes to stay in business, isn't it?
Why can't they make their country better, rather than making ours worse by proxy?
You realize, of course, that FWD.us is a decidedly "leftist" organization?

In this case the patient themselves were denied access to their own info.
It's not malice, it's greed built into the medical billing system. Same reason hospitals don't publish their fee rates.
Don't listen to this idiot. Collection companies have zero duty to assure the legitimacy of the debts they own.

Yea this.
When I read that line I said to my wife, "ERROR implies that it occasionally benefits the patient. This shit is on purpose."
I think once self-driving vehicles are more common, a great deal more effort will be put into map accuracy and route planning.
Putting the cart before the horse, aren't we?
