Don't forget James Clapper. The person at the root of this mess. The master of lying.
"Weeks before the National Security Agency (NSA) began a massive phone sweeping operation on U.S. cellular provider Verizon, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper told Congress the agency does not conduct intelligence on American citizens.
Testifying before the Senate Intelligence Committee, Clapper denied allegations by panel members the NSA conducted electronic surveillance of Americans on U.S. soil.
"Does the NSA collect any type of data at all on millions or hundreds of millions of Americans?" committee member Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) asked Clapper during the March 12 hearing. In response, Clapper replied quickly: "No, sir."
"There are cases where they could inadvertently perhaps collect [intelligence on Americans], but not wittingly," the U.S. intelligence chief told Wyden and the rest of the committee. http://thehill.com/policy/defe...
Living in California, I am ashamed of the way this state is voting. I didn't vote for Trump or Hillary but this state is really lost in the ozone. It's bent on telling its residents how to perform every aspect of their lives, be it flushing the toilet, turning on the light, buying a lawnmower and hundreds of other chiding of every day actions of life.
So to answer your rhetorical question, I would hope that California is NOT representative of the rest of the United States.
When catastrophic failures of this type occur, the evidence left is typically a pile of ash and molten metal. It's difficult if not impossible to determine root cause of such a failure.
They may be inductively thinking and producing a similar failure by applying force to the battery, causing it to fail in a similar manner. However, I'm doubtful that they can determine with certainty what caused a pile of ash/molten metal to have failed.
If we bring those jobs back to the U.S., the products will be produced with less pollution (and higher cost) because the U.S. has more-stringent pollution standards.
Whenever I see "Win 10" listed (which is always) as an OS, I turn the other direction.
I'd like to see some good hardware with a Windows alternative. Given the spyware with new Windows, I will not be buying any hardware running the abomination. That's unfortunate as Win 7 works pretty well.
They tried to reunite their country that the French separated. The "domino effect" was later proven to be 100% bullshit.
Kennedy went in and made the problem worse supporting their puppet South Vietnam's Catholic "leader". Both parties contributed to the mess beyond that.
Ironically, Nixon ended it but only because parents got tired of getting their sons sent to die in a war that would never be won.
Naw. The Yoo Ess is leading the world in obesity. True that the heart won't be very good but some of the other organs might be usable after too much TV, chips, pizza and microwave dinners.

It's interesting that "denigrating Clinton" is comprised of revealing what she communicated.
Seems she shot herself in her own foot.
Time to anoint Marissa with another raise for "doing such a great job".
It's an environmental "fashion statement" that will never have a return on investment.
If you doubt it, run the numbers.
Googling about, the Kingston 1TB drive sells for $1,163. This one will be a whole lot more.
Exactly.
If they know they will have an answer in the future, they know now.
If not, they don't know what caused the problem and they're essentially "playing poker" and bluffing.

Tell me.
What causes China to produce so much pollution?
Answer: The U.S. desire for cheap labor.
If we bring those jobs back to the U.S., the products will be produced with less pollution (and higher cost) because the U.S. has more-stringent pollution standards.
The U.S. continues to outsource its pollution to China.
We are so pious in thinking we're "green" when we enable China to pollute so much.
Amen, brothuh!

I just resent the intrusiveness of Win 10.
No thank you.
Well-said.
I'd mod you up but I've commented so my thanks to you for explaining the mess the U.S. has created.
What?!
We can't throw Trump, the Russians, the DNC or Hillary in to the fray ?
What?!
It must have not been Podesta's fault for clicking on the faked Gmail link asking for his password? It was the RUSSIANS!!!
I'm surprised Podesta didn't send his business card to Craig Shergold.
They're technologically inept.
Watching the video "Why We Fight" explains a lot of this.
Eisenhower warned us about the Military Industrial Complex.
Now both parties are dependent upon war for a successful economy.
Notice we're still in Afghanistan.
Why?
They tried to reunite their country that the French separated. The "domino effect" was later proven to be 100% bullshit.

"Treat the United States nicely or we'll bring democracy to your country"
Yes, they all work for Obama. Mostly put in place due to their gender or skin color.
Don't forget continuing the "War on Terror" that will never end.
Obama continued to wage war in Afghanistan (a country that hates us) whilst anointing them with 100 Billion dollars in "aid".
WTF is he thinking ?
Which one are you?
A Republican or a Russian operative?
No one gives a shit about the next Apple phone that is bigger, smaller or thinner.
It's still just a phone.
Learn some new tricks. The old ones are getting worn out and Apple has lack of innovation.
Similar to HP milking the ink business for decades.
Disruptive technology is sorely-needed by Apple again.
Naw. The Yoo Ess is leading the world in obesity. True that the heart won't be very good but some of the other organs might be usable after too much TV, chips, pizza and microwave dinners.
No problem. Software errors will compensate for the "good driving".
My housing cost reduced 75% by moving out of Silicon Valley to the Sacramento area.
My sister teaches kindergarten in Bakersfield and earns nearly 80K/year. I wouldn't call that a low salary.
