It's more like the opposite; the myths never die. Remember that famous slide that Snowden leaked showing the timeline of when the NSA infiltrated Apple, Google, Microsoft and various other tech companies? All denied they were helping the NSA but many people still believe that they are, even long after further slides showed that they were actually attacked and later took steps to prevent data collection based on the leaked info.
Meh, nerds will pay a fortune for used, damaged stuff that is somehow famous. Props from movies and TV shows, stuff that's been in space, parts of famous machines, letters written by notable people, classic cars etc.
I wonder how much of it was politics. Marriage has been used as a tool for brokering peace and trade deals since time immemorial. Women were often the spoils of war too, eliminating your enemies by murdering them and then out-breeding them.
Does that mean I can't call your unscientific viewpoints out?
No, it means that for example your insurance company can't sift through your Facebook profile looking for reasons to deny you coverage or jack up your premiums. It means that Facebook can't help landlords hide their properties from you because of the colour of your skin.
It's clearly modelled after the EU rules where we have things like algorithmic transparency. If the computer tells me I can't have a mortgage then I have a right to know why, and to challenge it if I think it's unfair. No black boxes when it comes to making decision about you.
Doesn't consumer protection run contrary to basic Republican ideals of personal responsibility? They seem to mostly push policies that companies can do what they like, and it's up to individuals to avoid getting screwed by them.
How about jail time for companies? They do it in Japan, the company isn't allowed to do any business for X days but has to keep paying staff etc.
Imagine what a one day shut-down would do to Facebook. Anyone visiting Facebook would get a message informing them that it's closed for the day because they lost 50M people's personal data.
A politician telling you what they want to do if elected... There is simply no way it could be a genuine statement of intent, because all politicians lie all the time without exception.
I have a better idea. Vote for the policies you want, and then hold those who offered them to account.
Maybe because they consider forcing private citizens and organisations to publish material that may ultimately harm them (e.g. because most people don't want to be confronted with Nazis when sharing their cat/baby/fake news photos) is an unwarranted loss of liberty and has nothing to do with freedom of speech.
Only because they have a compatibly layer that has a big list of badly coded apps.
That's partly why they have telematics. They built up the list during the beta that was open to anyone, and continually add to it. It also knows about apps that don't handle DPI scaling and stuff like that.
Have people forgotten what was said about Clinton during the presidential campaign already? Supported her husband who cheated on her and sexually assaulted women. The accusers were invited by Trump to the second debate and sat in the audience. Trump used her husband's alleged actions to excuse his own.
A fair, balanced and factual description of what happened. And apparently 20% flamebait according to the mods. Also 30% overrated.
There are people trying really, really hard to control the narrative and bury anything that contradicts their preferred version of events. For all the whining about SJWs and Leftists, look at who is abusing the moderation system and somewhat successfully making sure that their message is heard to the exclusion of all others.
That's actually what Facebook did say. There is a copy of the memo they sent floating about, it basically says that if you are unhappy then they will be sad to see you go but wish you well.
When people say that women should be believed, they mean enough to have a proper investigation. Too often the police dismiss claims and don't look in to them. Of course the standard of proof is still beyond a reasonable doubt and her claims will be examined in court.
Keep in mind that this actually makes it worse for people making false accusations, because if it emerges that they lied in court then they are open to perjury charges, or at the very least being exposed. So it's a fairly effective deterrent against making false accusations.
We have multiple women with plausible and compelling stories. While that isn't proof, it's more than enough to warrant a proper investigation.
The US system is peculiar in that there is very limited time to properly investigate. They FBI should have had much more time and interviewed everyone concerned. As it is we have a report that basically says they can't say who is telling the truth and that there are things that need to be looked at in more detail.
This is bad for everyone. Why can't more time be given? Why does there have to be a decision made on his appointment by tomorrow evening?
Companies do this all the time. Accused of a crime? Fired. Be less than conservative on TV? Fired. Ex posts revenge porn on the internet? Fired. Go to a Nazi rally? Fired.
Surely if he had any integrity he would have ditched his friend as soon as it became clear what sort of person he really was. He could have walked out of that hearing once he saw the performance Kavanaugh was putting on.
Interesting. I interviewed for a job making OBD-II diagnostic equipment for Snap-On and they told me that they had to reverse engineer a lot of proprietary stuff through packet capture. I'm no expert (accepted a different job) but that gave me the impression that there was secret stuff that mechanics needed to fix cars. Maybe I misunderstood, perhaps it was just "nice to have" features that aren't strictly necessary.
Sounds pretty socialist to me. Government pumps money into the economy via public projects that are contracted out. Even the USSR had RKK Energia design most of their rockets, for example.
Much of the work that Space X does is for the government. To be socialist it doesn't have to have the development done by the government, in fact NASA never really did that... It just needs to be funded and directed for the public good, rather than for purely commercial interests.
Keyboards and LCDs are not minor repairs on a MacBook even when they software does support it.
The keyboard is riveted in to the top half of the case, so the only way to fix it is to replace the entire top half of the computer. Keyboard, case, PCBs, the lot.
The screens are a bugger to replace too. Basically the two most common things that get accidentally damaged are insanely difficult and expensive to fix. The keyboard problems from the last generation must have cost Apple and absolute fortune to fix, at least once they admitted it.
So how does this work for cars where you need proprietary diagnostic tools to clear error codes etc? Effectively such cars would be impossible to fix if the tools were not available to any random garage.
Apple used Intel chips exclusively, with all the usual security flaws including the hidden, impossible to disable OS called the "Intel Management Engine". You know, the one with 90s era buffer overflow vulnerabilities and the ability to fully control your system without your permission.
With a normal motherboard you have control over the secure boot process. You can load your own keys, secure your system. Apple doesn't allow you to do that.
Currently the best option is an AMD Ryzen board. It's not perfect but it's better than a Mac for security. If you can afford it get one of the server grade chips with encrypted RAM support.

Not everything is an attack on your freeze peach.

Still in the post-truth era I see.

How about get rid of life terms. If it was only 5 years then there would be a lot less controversy over one bad judge.

This is a very common misconception it seems.

Personally I really want a new Thinkpad with Ryzen Pro, but they ain't cheap.

Bezos just wants to be ready for the first Amazon Prime shipment to the moon. 2 day shipping will be a bit of a challenge.
