The bitch* is nothing more than a temporary problem given our limited technology. Vendors are already working on inside out displays in the shape of a 4D hypercube which will finally elevate us from a world of phones you can't hold to phones you can't see. Maybe anyway. Could be that it'll have a notch too but at least you can't see it.
* I noticed this autocorrect fail but then I wonder, was it really a failure or does my phone simply articulate my thoughts better than I do...
I would be more concerned if cars became self aware deceptacons who like facehuggers attacked people in a way that allowed them to multiple and spread onto other people in an exponential manner.
But they aren't. They are just cars, when when you don't move them they don't spread death like... the plague. That's an interesting analogy. These drug resistant bacteria are like... the plague.
Now when cars or smoking manage to kill 214million (60% of the population) Americans in 7 years then we can start worrying about cars as much as unleashing the next super virus.
Looks like voting wasn't enough. Are you running yet?
Are you talking about running away from America? Because god knows there's no point in running for public office there. Unless your goal is to work up the republican or democratic hierarchy conforming to their norms on the way. For all the democracy you guys love the USA has one of the worst and most dysfunctional forms of a somewhat non-corrupt democratic government.
But IF we send one of these fuckers to prison its for 6 months even though they stole millions. Bull fuckign shit. lock them up and let them rot.
Yep, let's feed the prison industrial complex even more. I mean prison has solved everything. There's no more drug dealers, no more murders, nothing. Everyone is living in perfect harmony for fear of going to prison.
Or back in reality all we've achieved is to be number one in the world when it comes to citizen incarceration rate.
Prison is meaningless as both a punishment and as a deterrent. Prison used to be reserved for removing people from public who were incompatible with the public, but we now propose everyone who hurts someone else's feelings should go to prison.
For serial narcissists like the people involved in most of these white collar crimes prison is meaningless. What you need is a deterrent that hurts, such as knocking them down to a commoner level. Cripple them enough financially in a way that they won't be made homeless, but won't be able to dig themselves out of the lowest class of hole they can find, and then you may see something change. It's a system that is used in some places to great effect.
E.g. Speeding fines in Finland are tied to your income. For one person that resulted in a $103000 speeding fine for doing 15km over the limit. BASF became the kings of safety in the chemical world, not through threat of jail, but by building chemical plants around the homes and families of the plant manager.
Not sure what videos you've been watching but let me clear a few things up:
You sound like you're talking about videos from the Boring company. This is Virgin Hyperloop One we are talking about, it's no different to a train. But let's talk about what you saw:
- You saw something outdated. No one is planning on using the elevator concept to an underground transport system for cars anymore, not even Musk. - Yes there was an elevator off the side in several of the original videos as well. It makes no sense to drop something into a traffic flow. - No it won't be a 50 lane highway, don't apply highway thinking to public transport. There's a whole different level of infrastructure utilization, even in built up areas. - The idea of driving on a surface road would make much more sense if there was still space on that surface road. The entire premise of not doing something on the surface is that you can't. Otherwise it would be cheaper and faster to just do something on the surface.
When a large corporation fires/lays off hundreds to thousands of employees, it's a best practice to have armed police on business campuses for a period of time (months to even years).
WTF is that a thing in America? Hell last time we laid off 700 people we didn't even increase the number of security staff (from 1 to 2*).
*Side note we did have a security incident caused by the fact the only security guard we had went to the toilet, and some random person let themselves in and stole the shower heads from the men's showers. You can't make this shit up. At least after that incident they considered having 2 security guards... They still didn't though.
In my opinion, YouTube shoud do more to encourage production of meaningful conent.
Define meaningful. Clickbait wouldn't work if people didn't find it meaningful. Just because some people are fascinated watching others opening their mail doesn't mean we need the thought police to step in.
If this is the future, then bugger the future with a turbocharged chainsaw.
You remind me of the people who say flying is a bad experience. You're being whisked away at incredible speeds to a different place using a system which priorities your time and your ability to get to the destination. That is orders of magnitude better than being stuck in traffic. The future can't come fast enough!
Yeah I know, I was just being facetious. The point is I'm willing to bet that the 3100 people don't actually give a damn. Or maybe 3099 of them don't, one of them actually bothered to write it, so they care.
the iphone X is on a different category and no device competes directly with it.
What a silly comment. Every device competes directly with devices from other categories too. Moving price classes is a form of direct competition. My hatchback also competed against a Ferrari for my wallet. The hatchback won not only due to cost but also practicality.
The iPhone X is a nice phone, but to say no device competes directly with it is absurd.
Your data is the only thing Google has to derive value. They sell *you* specifically access to you in a wide variety of ways through many APIs targetting many delivery mechanisms. But the data is what gives them the market leverage they have.
To me that makes the submission all the more stupid. It's kind of like saying: "Coca-Cola prints the ingredients list on the side of the bottle, but it doesn't taste like coke when I mix it together, does anyone know what recipe they use?"
I mean, they had to do an honest-to-goodness review
No they didn't. They had to do an honest-to-goodness fire-hosing of the flaming ignorant masses who opted to let the Facebook app become their phone and messaging system and then freaked out that it had the functionality of a phone and messaging system.
In other news Facebook will now be the only app on my phone capable as acting a full phone dialler which doesn't also record the call times.
We were on the 2.4 Linux Kernel (no longer supported with updates)
And the absurdity of that is if you did apply the microcode update, and did enable KPTI you would still get a net increase in speed simply by upgrading the kernel to something more modern.
and I don't see why I should not expect it to work reliably.
I don't see what reliability has to do with it. Is something not working reliably right now? I'll tell you what didn't work reliably, the last microcode update. If reliability is your concern you should probably prevent any microcode update from being installed given what happened last time it was released.
It seems that Intel is ready to admit that it was (and may be still) unable to design and build processors that were dependably secure in normal operation.
No. The only thing that you can seemingly imply from this situation is that Intel was unable to design and build a processor which allows this specific bug to be patched via microcode. And if you think that bugs in Intel, or AMD, or any other processor manufacturer are rare then you've clearly never looked up an errata document.
e.g. Intel's Skylake errata list is already a 69 page document with 159 identified spec breaks. Some with workarounds, many without. AMD is harder to list since they don't cover the entire generation in one document, but as an example Bulldozer processors 00h-0Fh errata list is a 95 page document, and there are about 4 other documents covering the family.
Designing processors is HARD, and no you won't get compensated for every unfixable bug that is found, in fact historically speaking you haven't even been compensated for 0.1% of the unfixable bugs found from any vendor.
I feel like Intel is running a fast one on us through these code names.
You feel like Intel is running a fast one despite a 19 page PDF file linked in the summary with a list of every Intel processor by Code Name, Public Name, CPUID, and Platform ID being listed?
Slashdot Mirror
There are great apps for fan control on the Mac that bypass the normal sensor info.
So buy a premium quality fancy machine just so you have to bypass and screw around with something that shouldn't be broken in the first place?
There's an easy solution for the fans. Connect the 12V fans to 5V.
There's an even easier solution. Buy a quality product from a company who's motto is "It just works". Shame that no longer exists.
Echo chamber much? Some of us are anti gun BECAUSE we are surrounded by guns senselessly.
Private property turning into public space is a US irregularity and had nothing to do with "most of the west"

iPhoneX is just as much of a stretch given its the third phone to market with this fucking stupid design.
The irony is not lost on me that a lot of the not finishing treatments is done because of fear of "big pharma" controlling your lives.
Why should I keep taking this drug if I'm healthy?
Don't worry, soon you won't have to because it won't help you even when you're sick.
I would be more concerned if cars became self aware deceptacons who like facehuggers attacked people in a way that allowed them to multiple and spread onto other people in an exponential manner.

and have to spend the time in prision. Including death penalty. Guess how many "unsafe" products would be released? Zero
I know right. I mean that solved the problem of people murdering other people, so it will work just as well here.

if you just tap a phone and go, how do you knew whether it screwed up or not?
Tapping the phone does not preclude you from looking at the EFTPOS machine to see how much you are about to be charged.
the iphone X is on a different category and no device competes directly with it.
What a silly comment. Every device competes directly with devices from other categories too. Moving price classes is a form of direct competition. My hatchback also competed against a Ferrari for my wallet. The hatchback won not only due to cost but also practicality.

Does Google sell it outright?
Does Coca-cola sell you its recipe?

If you don't like what the company you work for does, it might be time to find a new place to work...
Are you kidding? That takes effort. I'd much rather just sign a piece of paper that someone else wrote.
