U.S. drone delivery service Flirtey on Monday announced that its self-piloting flying machines have whisked flu medicine, hot food and more from 7-Eleven convenience stores to customers' homes.
I've never be able to buy anything that can be called food at 7/11. So I don't believe it.
but on older devices, Flash media playback is faster. So much so that I can still watch Youtube videos fullscreen on my older Atom-powered netbook with Flash, when the HTML5 player is choppy and horrible in Firefox. If only they made it a tad faster just for fullscreen video playback, I'd uninstall Flash in a jiffy. But it's not gonna happen. Still, while I can, I'm holding onto Flash just for that, because my netbook ain't fast but it works fine.
The building itself might be able to withstand an earthquake, but the ground it's built on might not. In SF, that'd be a concern - especially since the very fact that the building sinks indicates that the ground underneath might be of the type that loses its strength when shaken.
Well, they don't need to ban TOR: companies like Google and CloudFlare already make sure you can't access vast swathes of the internet from a TOR exit node. The powers that be don't need to ban TOR because it's effectively been rendered useless by unaccountable privately-owned companies.
In short, these companies do the government's bidding and they're pretty happy to do it - which, incidentally, is a trait of Fascism.
This makes no sense. If it were true how did Trump get elected?
Actually it makes total sense: the reason why there's an apparent drop in cases of dementia in the US is because the rest of the population is getting it. When Americans select a dangerous populist as POTUS, clearly they've started to forget the past and behave erratically. If that's not dementia, I don't know what is.
In other words, when the entire country is starting to go gaga, the real gagas go under the radar. Hence the drop.
I only send encrypted files about my criminal activities to smart criminals. I don't send anything that could compromise me to Boss Hogg.
My point was, only dumb criminals get caught with readable shit on their cellphone. Those who are serious about doing illegal things know better - or don't use computers, cellphones or tablets in the first place. In fact, the more the man turns on the heat on digital stuff, the more smart criminals will stay the hell away from it, ultimately defeating the man's purpose.
I don't trust Apple no more than I trust government agencies, because despite their pro-privacy posturing, they really work for the man - just like Google and all the others. Therefore, when I want to commit a crime and store files about it on my cellphone, PC or transmit said files to my fellow criminals, I encrypt them *before* saving them. Savvy criminals do the same.
I'm a smart criminal, so you ain't gonna find no clear-text file on none of my computer devices, regardless of the brand.
The company reports 30,000 upcoming, but it'll be much more in the end when the story is forgotten and nobody's watching. The company has implemented a cheating device that reports fake numbers when the press and incestors are watching: they call it the PR Department...
Yep, and it's not new either: for decades, France has had laws curtailing free speech when it comes to the jews. For example, if you say "jews smell of elderberries" publicly, you can be prosecuted and end up in the slammer.
Me, I have nothing against jews. But I find it outrageous - not to mention counterproductive - that you can't say anything remotely critical of them. At least in the US, where any old antisemite can say whatever the hell they want in public provided they don't call for violence, and often do so vocally, their very act of exercising their right makes them look like massive idiots who get to be kept under surveillance. In France, they stay under the radar and make converts. But hang around long enough in any bar in France and you'll quickly realize many, many of them are jew haters.
More to the point: how does naming a Wifi access point "Daesh" possibly constitute apology of terrorism, or aiding terrorists? It's not like some random dude will drive by with a laptop and suddenly go "Well, would you look at that: that there Wifi access point is called "Daesh". I suddenly want to kill infidels! Allahu akbar!!!"
What that is really is a clear example of the french democracy going 1984...
I suspect most of the "dark web"'s reputation (including it's nefarious-sounding name) is mostly made up by the media, themselves controlled by the states, to prevent honest people who would legitimately like to escape state and big data surveillance. Most honest people fear being caught doing something that has a dodgy reputation, even if it's perfectly legal.
Maintaining the myth that the "dark web" is strictly for pedophiles, drug dealers, paid hitmen, carders and other illegal activities keeps good people from going under the radar, That suits a whole bunch of genuinely nefarious internet actors just fine. It also suits law enforcement agencies, as the myth tends to isolate and concentrate truly nasty activities on the dark web - making the myth self-perpetuating - and it kills any desire for legit concerns to invest in anonymous internet accessibility. Just look at what happened to DuckDuckGo's or Soylentnews' TOR nodes: they've disappeared, because they didn't get enough traffic.
Blockchain? Open-source? Kind of like Bitcoin : sounds good eh?
Remember this: whatever banks concoct and why they decide to do it isn't for the good of their customers, but that of their rich fuck shareholders. Yes, that's the same rich fucks who caused the latest recession - and the one before that, and the one before that...

I'd rather suffer a million Firefoxes than anything coming from Google. Besides, I'm using Palemoon, which is a less sucky version of Firefox.

Before they had information filtered and warped by the Castro regime, now they'll have information filtered and warped by Google...
He suffered a refresh circuitry failure.
You can't change a person's ideologies by imprisoning them
Yes you can. Just you watch how that man thinks when he gets out in two years.
AngelHunt? Sounds like the name of a pedo website...

The real irony is that another set of crooks who fiddle their taxes (Google) suspended their accounts on moral grounds.

Or that you work on a cargo ship.
You got it backward: US presidents get a Nobel prize *before* doing anything worthy of a Nobel prize.
Fine example of selective memory...
They can't investigate a legitimate religion
Define legitimate religion...

That was Anthony Cuomo, not Weiner, bonehead.
Actually that was Andrew Cuomo.

Still want in on their latest project? I don't...
I think MS ought to go and read the code, learn some lessons and carry it back
They haven't done that in 4 decades. Why would they start now?
