I've read of unintentional contamination problems with DNA evidence. I'm afraid that in the near future the DNA contamination will be intentional and comes in the form of a spray can carried by the criminals. I would not want to be the "usual suspect" whose DNA is used for this purpose.
"Where were you on 23th January 2019? DNA evidence says you are guilty of this crime. Prove that you are innocent or go to prison."
I think this idea actually has potential..........
is an ideal solution if you are just tipping a merchandise delivery driver. With food orders if you tip on a card presumably some of it gets to the cooks and kitchen staff as well. Not every situation is the same.
Not long ago they were advocating for internet censorship. This is just a logical extension of that mindset. They want your internet to be more like cable TV.
Hard to imagine a company that works so actively against the interests of its customers still has any.
Solar for the patsies, coal for China. China is building as much coal generating capacity as US has in its entirety... the few PV projects are only value signalling.
Without subsidy levelized cost for solar has to be cheaper than fuel cost for coal plants they have any way. That's less than a $0.01 per kWh, solar is getting close but it's still at least a decade off barring some technological leap AFAICS.
Whether the PRC having access to your surfing habits is a problem depends mostly on why you use their VPN to access something. If your reason to use it is that you don't want the US or Europe to know where you're surfing, you should be doing ok.
Anecdotally speaking, around here most people use VPNs to avoid the attention of the copyright popo. The Chinese don't give a shit if you are downloading the latest Game of Thrones or Drake album, so you should be fine.
If you are using it to exchange industrial trade secrets maybe not so much.
If you want to understand every little fact about a hotel you should go there jnstead of asking dumb question on the web. Or you could just trust hotels to generally be experts at being hotels
This whole thread is about the untrustworthiness of hotel's "expertise", but thanks for playing.
For the illusion of protecting their revenue from their content division? This is my shocked face.
^This.
It is a huge conflict for hardware makers to also be content purveyors, and the people who buy their products are worse off for it.. The same is true of ISPs.
If you want to avoid crippled equipment or services you are better off dealing with people who have no financial interest in what you actually use them for, because otherwise your needs are always going to come second.

But US government-run healthcare will be different.
Totally off topic, but I was just discussing this elsewhere earlier today.......

Duh.
Artificial intelligence is certainly the only kind he will ever have.

in my sleep, like my grandfather. Not screaming in terror like his passengers.

Encryption you have no interaction with and no control over is not secure.
Carry on.
Once the "debt to society" has been paid, delete it.
Like their fingerprints and their DNA.
The US has 4.3% of the worlds population but houses 22% of the prisoners in the world.
Obviously something about Americans makes them highly predisposed to being criminals.

Exactly.

Oh, OK my bad. She should express the countdown to the end in days rather than years so it is easier to keep track.
https://www.ratemds.com/ is far better than Yelp. Looks like they don't operate in Europe.
They should.
Does anybody seriously think the Tesla Model 3 will be competitive with anything from Mercedes, Audi and BMW?
Maybe they could offer a sweet turbocharged inline six like my BMW has. That could make them interesting.
That was in 2018. This is 2019, so it's 11 years now.

Its always been a fun thought if trees can walk.
They are called Triffids. Don't piss them off.
Yes, we know, they are saving the world.
Carry on.
The particular trees are less important.

Why would a hotel have those?
In every organization, there's always someone who has too much access. And there's not really a good way to avoid it.
Indeed. If the possibility of a horrible violent death for you and your family does not keep you loyal nothing will.
SolarWinds really crippled their free version of Kiwi Syslog Server recently too. Would not be at all surprised if it goes away as well.
