Maybe correct what people think rather than pander to ignorance. Frankly if we present a few more darwin awards people may learn something. Or should we just rename our computers "harddrives" too because that's what people think?
Lane alerts, car following, etc are NOT Autopilot.
Funny you should say that given what Tesla has is far more than lane alert and car following. Why would you mandate someone call a far more advanced system the same as a competitor's lame system? Why are you so biased all of the time? Are you an upset VW shareholder or something?
Right I understand it now. That would be a workable system but you're still at the whim of the 3-5 suggested improvements. Ultimately this is still someone else suggesting what users want with the exception that if they get it wrong there's the potential not to get funding at all.
There are weekly fucking stories about data on AWS being illicitly accessed. It's fucking commonplace.
There are weakly stories of AWS being access due to companies (who you are saying are the ones who should be in charge of security) setting up their AWS systems insecurely.
The cloud is as secure as your organisation makes it. There have not been any reports of massive breaches, only individual breaches from insecurely setup systems which are setup by the very people who would also be in charge of security at your organisation.
There's a common idiot in your security equation. The question is, if you get rid of that idiot what's more secure, the cloud or your personal system.
If they "connect" to your WiFi access point they may get an RFC1918 address. But do you then not provide them internet access / believe that anyone with internet somehow can't see your external IP address simply because their interface is assigned an internal one? That's not how routing works.
No off-road capability except for 2-3" more clearance than the GP suggests as well as 4WD and the option to add roof racks, add a tow hitch and a lot of spare space in the trunk if you want to carry a tire.
Please don't use that example. Pretty much anything can tow an aircraft including a person. Better to point to actual specs such as the shitton of torque (that's metric for "a lot") the Model X produces.
Also good is more calling out of bullshit from the GP. The Model X has a spacious boot so you can carry a spare tire. The Model X has general ground clearance of 8 which can be electronically raised an inch as well putting it inline or exceeding the clearance of other SUVs to say nothing of the fact that a standard sedan has a clearance of 6" and a sports sedan even less.
I'm....not sure that's true. The only time anyone complains about deficits is when the other party wants to spend.
The fact that parties are inept at reducing spending (gotta give a tax cut to those voters), and the fact that they use it to attack the opposition spending, has nothing to do with the fact that people generally know that deficit in relation to GDP is a bad thing.
Don't underestimate the willingness for a politician to run a country knowingly into the ground for personal gain.
If they had invested in contributing to an open source software then they would not be leashed.
If it existed then it may be viable. But quite frankly there is no competitor to a P25 or TETRA based public safety system in the open source world. Unlike Oracle you can't just download an alternative off the internet. Just like you wouldn't download a car.
The real criminals here are Motorola for charging $94 per radio per update to let them change settings on hardware the police dept already owns.
Owning the radio and having a license to use them on a system are two different things. $94 is nothing, it's pennies when it comes to public safety radio systems. The radios cost thousands. The infrastructure 100s of thousands. The management and licenses hundreds of thousands again.
Hardly. For public safety infrastructure it's a small cost compared to the total ownership cost of the system itself. Last I checked with a Motorola TETRA system (the USA favours even more expensive P25) we were looking for 2 base stations in one system covering 400 radios a cost of $100k per year for license and maintenance. Radios are in the order of $2k each. And don't get me started on their cloud offerings. We balked at the cost as well and went to a competitor only to be greeted with figures that were very similar.
Because there is more to law than a two worded title that you looked up in a dictionary, and the practices being described have always been codified as illegal in criminal copyright legislation.
I completely disagree with you lumping everything into an english word "VPN".
The point you're trying to achieve if privacy and encryption. There are many facets to this. Some of them are absolutely beneficial if you control them e.g. knowing if log files are kept on the server, knowing what is running on the server etc. Some of them are absolutely beneficial if they are completely communal e.g. obfuscating your data in a massive mess of other customers, knowing that the IP address at the endpoint is associated with a VPN and thus likely to get thrown into a "too hard" basket for most tracking cases out there that don't involve tracking serious criminal activity.
Sometimes the best thing you can do for privacy is blend in a giant public crowd.
I don't believe for a moment that a vpn makes me untrackable but it does throw extra road blocks in the way.
And that's just the thing. Unless you're running a dark web market place for drugs you don't need to be untrackable, you just need to be less trackable than someone else doing your activity.
Think automatic monitoring of torrents. You're IP address will be bunched in a pool of many others, the MAFIAA will send these to the ISP, the ISP will reply with addresses and MAFIAA will will pursue. They'll get a percentage of legit IP addresses to follow up on, a percentage that they throw in the too hard basket, and done.
Then there's also many legitimate reasons to use a VPN, such as for privacy on public open wifi hotspots.
So instead of tracing to one thing you own they trace to another thing you own? Personally I'd rather use a big company knowing my data will be obfuscated by a mass of other shit going through the pipe which any trace is likely to write off as "too difficult" (at least if the provider doesn't keep logs as they claim).
I also don't believe people can just smash their iPhones on purpose and get new models.
And yet you'd be amazed at how often I've seen this, and those people do take a bit of care when doing it, i.e. it's oh too convienent when it happens every time a new iPhone comes out. But every second time, and random months after release? What's IT gonna do? You need the device for your work, there's legitimate ways it could have broken. You want to get in a he-said she-said argument while no work gets done?
This does happen and we oh so laughed at someone I know who did it when he was given the same old Galaxy S5 in this case because they still had some new in storage to exhaust.
However then you have to ask, is there a benefit in giving your employees old shit hardware that takes forever to open an email and can't tether at LTE-A speeds limiting their ability to use their laptops on the go? There's dicks all around in this equation.
They figure that the cost savings is a benefit, and they don't care about (or don't realize) the security implications.
Quite the opposite. Security implications are the core part of any decision to go to cloud. The security implications usually weigh up the risk of handing data to a third party vs our own capabilities to keep it secure.
Azure, AWS, etc host a shitton of confidential information from some of the biggest companies in the world. You'd think with that kind of a target we'd be hearing daily about breaches. Instead we get an endless string of breaches from companies that have failed to secure their own servers, or attempted to roll their own cloud infrastructure.
Think of it this way. Do you go to the doctor. Do you literally put your life in someone else's hand? Or do you build up your own medical lab so you can diagnose and treat yourself whenever you need? I mean we're not talking about something as handwavey as security here, we're talking about your life!
You'll also find that not only do companies not entrust ALL their data to the cloud, but the cloud providers give you tools to automate the process. For example (from where I work) Azure Information Protection client is configured on all our machines to force us to classify all documents. If I were to write a document, when I go to save it gives me the classification options. Should I tick "secret" or "sensitive" the document would automatically refuse synchronisation on OneDrive, it would automatically refuse to be handled by our exchange server if it were not encrypted, I would be unable to upload it to Sharepoint etc etc etc.
Managing and tightening down on secret information is an option provided by cloud providers to enable more control of security. These benefits and customisation need to be weighed up against the ability to roll this out yourself.
Yeah your leaders are much nicer simply droning them out of existence without trial. But that's only for citizens. If you're truly unlucky to witness the hospitality of the USA you may find yourself in a Cuban enclave instead.

So people think they can get in their car and set a direction and set a speed and it will go there. Thus making Autopilot a BAD FUCKING NAME.
But the car literally can do that ...
NO THAT IS NOT WHAT PEOPLE THINK.
Maybe correct what people think rather than pander to ignorance. Frankly if we present a few more darwin awards people may learn something. Or should we just rename our computers "harddrives" too because that's what people think?

That is unfortunate. You laughing through your ignorance just means you've missed the opportunity to learn something.

Or I could do something orders of magnitude easier and achieve the same result with a complete VPN rather than a SOCKS proxy.

5-10x what Europe fines European companies, when they do go after them
Could that be because foreign mega giants to 5-10x the amount of damage when they break the laws? Naah must be teh nationalism.

I see you've never had to deal with critical infrastructure before.
Why is copyright infringement relevant here?
Because there is more to law than a two worded title that you looked up in a dictionary, and the practices being described have always been codified as illegal in criminal copyright legislation.
