Because this is purely a move by the US to give competitive advantage to their own carriers through several heavily used travel hubs.
The correct move is for these hubs to impose an outgoing bad of the same items on US carriers - which they of course could do.
The UK is just bootlicking the US as usual, because their government gave up caring about their own people quite some time ago and has demonstrated they will do anything to punish people for not doing what the government told them in the BREXIT vote.
Actually, Canada Goose make gear for arctic (and antarctic, the ones I have seen) use, and they ARE the real deal. However, yes, many of their items look like fashion accessories for people with more money than sense.
The larger issue here is going to be when they REFUSE a claim, based on some fuzzy AI probabilistic interpretation of how someone acted during the claim. THAT aint going to hold up quite so well. Accepted claims are the EASY part.
I suspect they are actually relying on people making less false claimed because they are afraid of the 'all knowing AI'
No.. What we have here, other than a failure to communicate, is a budget that simply represents what the average American wants.
Americans love money, and growth, and power. hence the need for a business friendly budget. Americans are terrified of the rest of the world, hence more insane defense spending. Americans make a lot of noise about the environment, but don't actually do anything about it, hence cutting spending on such projects.
So Americans, go look in the mirror and consider that this budget, as a nation, reflects you. Maybe not the individual you, but the group.
And not just the right, or the left. Not just Dems or reps. This is how the whole world sees you all, as a nation.
Sad perhaps, but true.
But don't worry, you will all forget it as soon as the next football game kicks off, the next Hollywood personality splashes some opinion piece, or you decide to 'peace keep' another country into the dirt.
Then I suggest you learn English properly. Weighs can also mean considers the importance of different parts of a decision.. IE. Weighs the factors in a decision. As it clearly does here smart arse.
More importantly.. Perhaps someone should tell them actual tests of these modified mosquitoes have failed, as not surprisingly it turns out that the changes mutate out again very quickly as survival is actually dominant. Who would have thought.
'These scams are extensive, they all use phone calls, both cellular and land line, Blocking peoples access to the phone system is the only way to get the phone companies to sit the fuck up and listen and do something about it'
'These scams are extensive, they all target Windows users, Making the home use of Windows illegal is the only way to get Microsoft to sit the fuck up and listen and do something about it'
Probably over your head, but getting the idea?
Teamviewer is NOT the problem here - the problem appears to be that the ISP has had account data stolen, that is then being used to scam their members - and they are reacting by blaming one of the tools being used, almost certainly to cloud their own responsibility.
Yes, these scams are common and ugly. The ISP however could EASILY be blocking IP ranges of teamviewer, not just all access - ESPECIALLY as in this case it appears the scammers have data the ISP has lost.....
You need to go and look at a topo map of the area.
Due to pipe flow losses, you actually need quite a significant height advantage for gravity fed water to work, and australia is pretty much flat, impressively flat in general.
Plus the infrastructure costs would be LARGE, farmers run on small margins and are cash poor. There is no venture capital swill-trough or 'investment angels' in outback farming.
No, this does NOT make signal, etc completely insecure - this means they need to specifically target one end of the conversation, before it happens - why is always likely to be possible.
What is DOES NOT mean is that they can auto-vacuum up all the conversations for later 'analysis', as they can do with just about every other form of internet base communication. THAT is a critical difference. What it means is when you get on the wrong side of an ever expanding range of government bureaucrats, they can trawl through less of your life to look for a suitable 'punishment'.
Of course they would LOVE everyone to think encrypted communication is useless, because they more people wouldn't bother......
Bears a close resemblance to a false flag reporters.....
And no, I dont need to post that AC, because being sensible about your personal communications is sensible, not illegal.
Seriously, the number of people who spend all their relaxation time buried in that pile of steaming shite and ignoring their partner is just astounding, no wonder no intimacy happens....
Especially, I have to say it sorry, women. Many seem to spend much of their lives following all the other women they know, and thinking that everyone else lives a better life than them (while also themselves only posting the highlights of their own lives there, as glamorized as possible..).
Ignoring the usual 'no one on slashdot actually has physical relations' jokes, that really is the problem, people are just becoming emotionally detached through not enough face to face time, so is anyone actually surprised they are having less sex?
Trying to explain it to someone caught up in that BS though is like pulling the pin on a hand grenade, then deciding its juggling time.. They will violently claim they dont spend 'that much' time on there, and that anyway its only to keep in touch with their friends, and that it has no impact on their happiness or relationship.
They specifically tested models of bikes that took no considerations at ALL for either efficiency or pollution, and there is strong evidence that they actually jiggered them up a bit to make it even worse (people subsequently ran tests on similar bikes, and got WAY WAY lower numbers). And even when you took their numbers, they were talking percentages. when you took simple 'pollution per mile' even their messed with bikes were better than a car!
Good old politics, got to love it.
Now, look at the figures for a modern commuter bike. Take a Honda Grom 125 (yes, stupid name). 105MPG. Scooters regularly get 150-200MPG. Hell, a CBR 250R, a small SPORTS bike, gets towards 70.. There are plenty of 'California spec' bikes with catalytic converters, etc - although at those fuel economies its almost irrelevant as absolution emissions are so low.
No one uses them. Why should the government be sponsoring the hobby of a tiny minority of the population? Really, go and count the users on one during peak commute time - it wont be difficult.
What these are is not an investment in transportation, it is buying votes from a small but vocal pressure group, while at the same time lining the pockets of the infrastructure building companies, who are creaming it from such projects, and who just happen to be VERY generous campaign contributors.
I have nothing against cyclists, but cycle paths, cycle lanes, etc that significantly impact normal traffic flow, or public funds in a major way are a terrible TERRIBLE idea, as they detract from transport efficiency, not add to it.
The funniest part I find is that in most countries roadside cycle lanes are not usable by scooters/motorcyclists - a form of transport that CAN actually have a positively impact in commuting, but who are not 'fashionable' enough to be given consideration, so instead they must ride in the traffic, which is much more dangerous, and thus people avoid it.
So.. You are telling me that there are no special bus lanes that could otherwise be carrying cars? That the buses don't have very high fuel (and therefore pollution) footprints, and that they don't cost the city huge amounts in subsidies for those special few who can use them?
How good Ryzen is is, unfortunately, not the right question.
The right question is 'Has AMD managed to produce a chipset not so full of bugs that you will need toi reinstall everything every 12 months' The biggest problem with AMD has historically been TERRIBLE drivers, that are only semi-stable.
Now, some people will think I am shilling there, but no.. I run several AMD machines, here, and the drivers are just terrible. I am in the process now of trying to recover an AMD soft-raid1 pair that spontaneously went bad and refuses to boot - even after a full OS reinstall!
Whereas Intel chipsets tend to be a rock, which is a pity, as they definitely gouge on CPU proces.
Learn just a LITTLE physics and you will see that YOU are wrong (and TFA). There is no frequency that does not absorb over atmospheric distances, plus when it hits any solid object. There are only frequencies with LOWER absorption, which is meaningless for these kinds of path lengths.
In other words, that part of the article is pure BS, which makes the rest smell.. a little off?
The actual cooling mechanism looks dicey but possible, without a more careful analysis.
WTF is this description of the fasting diet? Since when did it become an unsaturated fats feast?
That's certainly not what it is supposed to be. The fasting, or 5 and 2 diet involves simple calorie reduction to around 500 calories 2 of every 7 days..
Hell.. 1000 calories is nothing like fasting.. you can easily live on that 365 days a year..
Has this also been Americanised into irrelevance? I suppose a diet has to be easy to be marketable and therefore profitable right? Who cares if it is no longer effective..
What, repeat an experiment with surprising one off results?
You, sir, obviously have not spent enough time around modern academia! Once you get the result you *want*, you then spend 100% of your time writing, publishing, hyping, funding, and publishing some more.
No one REPEATS experiments, my god, you may not get the same result! All that effort wasted!
This software just replaced LKAS and ACC in Hondas, both features you can get as standard anyway. basically steering lane control in cruise mode, and adaptive cruise so you dont run in to the back of the car in front.
That is far FAR from a 'self driving car', not even similar. The system cannot even operate below 18mph/25mph depending on model.
Still, new media and all, who CARES if any facts are checked, its all about the HYPE!
The EU is applying the back taxes to worldwide profits, as Apple is choosing to transfer those profits to the EU using IP licensing charges, and therefore those profits ARE present in the EU. That, kids, is why they play this game. They hide worldwide profits in a tax haven, but now they want to pretend they didnt do that.. Boo Hoo.
Nice comfy upper/middle class homestayers mostly, with nothing better to do with their time who think they whole world lives just like they do. they need to feel some self-worth, so make big fusses about things that are 'obvious' to them, although totally incorrect. All while they continue their own usually high rate of consumer turnover. Therefore we have easily recyclable items being landfilled instead. Sad, really.
If they got off their arses and actually went to some of these places, they would soon realise that the ONLY items that end up in landfills in India are those that have been repaired far beyond usefulness and cannot possible be used any longer. Otherwise items get reUSED, as they still have value there.
I find it quite funny that when I need additional Xeon CPUs for older servers, I can get them nice and cheap from China/India, because people have sent the whole servers over there as trash, where they are available back on the market, as they are often still very useful. The local prices for such CPUs are of course still very high..
Actually, no. at a pound a monitor he would be losing a LOT of money flying them out, which should be clear to you if you think about it.
What he was actually doing was flying them over there and telling them to people to use, you know, on computers, because they will happily continue to be useful far in to the future (and in fact tend to have a better lifespan than modern flatscreens).
Just because YOU dont want functional electronics, doesnt mean no one wants them. It is in fact the BEST form of recycling.
You realise that cost of production and cost of sale are almost totally unrelated now, and have been for some time, right?
Look at engineering tools. A set of good (cobalt steel) drills ex-china (and yes, they are genuine, identical to local) sell for around 20% of the local cost, and that is delivered..
However the same is true everywhere.
The reason you pay 'Prices' is to support the corporate cash stockpiles, and therefore share values. Deal with it.
The Korean Chaebol corps are pretty much untouchable, this guy is just a bit new and probably wasnt quite playing by the rules. This is just the governments way of reinforcing that they are the flip side of the corruption coin, and that the corps have to play by the rules. He will almost certainly get a few minor wrist slaps and told to play nicer and keep it quieter.
Other than that, its all just corruption as normal behind the curtains. Thats the price Koreans pay for the superpower Corps that fuel their economy. Works fine until you are on the wrong side of it, then you are pretty much screwed.
After all the Koreans learnt the whole game off the Americans.. They just play it a little harder/faster.
FFS PR, you make him look like a well balanced member of society.
But thats beside the point, you are falsely representing what happened, as you know.
He posted some dump videos. There was a small fuss, and he explained. Then the WSJ, currently all pissy about a number of things, misrepresented his content, and used their position, with that concocted bs, to threaten his advertisers into pulling support, and THEN made news of that.
Welcome to modern journalism, just make the news, who CARES what it takes. This is more about what the WSJ has become than anything else.
Which energy source has provided the greatest increase in fresh water living habitat for increasingly endangered freshwater wildlife. Which energy source is second only to nuclear in minimising deaths per gwh in the US? Which energy source is renewable, zero emissions, and can provide controllable baseload energy? Which energy source is able to efficiently store energy by reverse operation? Which energy source has saved countless lives through its ability to prevent flooding? Which energy source can transfer winter excess fresh water supply in to much needed summer water supply?
But no, a minor number of people relocated (something we tend to do naturally quite often anyway) and a microscopic amount of animals doing the same are the big concern!
Oh, and you are dead wrong on the your methane also, but nice attempt with the 'might'. its almost as if you dont know that normal land with mammals living on it also produce methane, and that lake bottoms are notoriously anaerobic..
Slashdot Mirror
Hmm, you used Slashdot.... Slashdot user! obviously you will certainly defend these criminals or blame Apple and the victims!
Drone Strike!
Yawn.
Because this is purely a move by the US to give competitive advantage to their own carriers through several heavily used travel hubs.

Because you cannot think critically?
Because the cost of electricity contains a lot more than just the cost of generation?
Because the farmers are using diesel is not generating electricity (which is lower efficiency) but running the pumps directly.
Not difficult there, was it.
What is it with the quality of reporting now?
No, this does NOT make signal, etc completely insecure - this means they need to specifically target one end of the conversation, before
it happens - why is always likely to be possible.
