Why would they need any signage? There are plenty of buildings where I will lose all reception. It may not be intentional, but they don't need any signs saying "Little to no cell reception in here". It's like the people calling for Niantic to have a more verbose warning in Pokemon Go. There are already trespassing laws and many states ban cell phone use while driving. Why does everyone always insist that we are responsible for constantly protecting fools from their own stupidity?
Has less to do with poverty than the fact these are hastily built structures. Russia had a number of issues too. I remember a story of one athlete having to break through the door or wall after being locked in the bathroom because the handle fell off.
As I understand it, there are nocturnal Pokemon that are only found at night. Of course, parks close at dusk around here, so the cops have been shooing people away. A local police department posted on Facebook a picture of a dozen people next to the sign saying the park closes at dusk after they were called there.
The robot doesn't have hour restrictions. A quick search of McDonald's in my area show many of them are open 24 hours. That is 168 hours of operation or 4.2 employees at 40 hrs/week. So that robot can replace 4 employees at $16k/year and takes the ROI down to 6 months.
LONG before "the machines take all our jobs", we're going to see raised expectations of what a human being should do to earn pay. Automation will slowly weed out the "mindless work" that pays you to use your body but not your brain.
That's the whole problem. Half the population's brains don't function much higher than that of a chimpanzee. What do we do with these people?
"Right. Because no one ever inadvertently left their car in neutral to let it roll away until it struck something. But if they had... sue the manufacturer!"
Most automatic transmission vehicles built in the last two decades won't let you remove the keys if the vehicle isn't in Park. And if you try to leave the car with the keys in the ignition, they will beep at you.
Who said they needed to remove the keys. My grandmother stopped at the end of the driveway to get her mail, didn't put the car fully in park. It rolled back over her foot, across the street and into the ditch. She too blamed the car.
So a dongle is an inconvenience, but carrying your own "microethernet" cable isn't? Or do you honestly believe they will magically be available whenever needed?
No, he's taking donations like everyone. He's only self funded in that he loaned his campaign money. He'll be paying himself back with those donations.
Did you know that in civilized parts of Europe, every child is expected to started learning a second language in the 1st grade (English) and in middle school start with their third language which they generally achieve proficiency in
There is part of the problem. The 2nd language is a requirement in high school in the US and languages are much harder to learn later in life. I had 4 years of Spanish in high school and a year in high school. They do a poor job of teaching it too as it was more focused on reading/writing. Never got to be any good at speaking or understanding it. Now it's as though I never took it.
Which apparently means he is going to cut a whole lot spending. This is why I give little credence to any presidential candidates tax plan. The odds of anyone overhauling our tax system with this Congress is extremely low.
Actually, every article I've seen on this story has that same sentence. So Slashdot isn't the source of the incompetence in this situation. It is just sad that nobody has fixed it before publishing the same crap.

You'll get no argument from me. Pointing out a solution that may work for some people in no way implies that I think the issue is "solved".
Of course not. Where would we get that idea?
... The phone doesn't even ring. Problem solved!
Oh yeah. That.

On the positive side, if they should get the runs during the swim, they can just let it go and nobody will notice.
Was it a real IMAX though? http://www.slashfilm.com/qa-im...

Must you keep reminding me she is from Chicago?
And who ban words with the letter 'X' in them because the X resembles a cross.
Shouldn't they be banning words with the letter "t" then? Or are they those obnoxious people that always use all caps?

There was already a group of teens in Missouri arrested for armed robbery of victims at various Pokestops.
I've been giving zero fucks for years as evident by me spending my office hours on slashdot.
Average weight is 4,000lbs., which would be 2 tons (2,000lbs to 1 ton). Even a Smart Car top 3/4 ton at 1800lbs.
C'mon man! This is /. so you should know he lived in his mother's basement.
More than just jews died in WWII.
I'm sure these people losing eyes and having their teeth lodged in their upper palate are less likely to reproduce as well.

Do you wipe down the screen after typing the pin so they can't figure out which numbers were pressed?

Also long as I use my debit card a dozen times a month, mine pays better as well. https://www.myconsumers.org/pe...
So you're saying we need to castrate everyone named Cletus?
