and that the people leading the project are "Scott Blew" and "Ivan Cash" (so they're even telling you that you "Blew Cash" on the product) I would lean more towards this being a mild scam or an Andy Kaufman style hoax.
In fairness they have a directly curated product supply chain, as well as an incentive since they purchase the goods till its sold (or so I would expect).
The only way that sort of checking would happen, is if Amazon were required to purchase the goods sold and then resell them, instead of just acting as a middleman/facilitator.
So I think he lived his life just the way he wanted to: Making just about everybody uncomfortable, disturbed, and/or freaked out.
Way too true.
Was at Dragon*Con one year when he first started coming. I'm not sure if they didn't have an autograph table ready for him, or if he was more popular and ran out of time in the table they HAD set up.
His solution was to take a table and chair and go sit in the lower lobby and just form a line and do it there.
It was funny watching the staff being torn between "he can't do that" and "he's Harlan Ellison... how can I help him" (since its a fan run convention). They ended up working it out and figuring out how to make it work, but it was very funny to watch and he was having a ball interacting with people (and not really caring what they thought).
Why else would he be pushing to get the Koreas talking to each other?! Obviously he's trying to get all the forces behind Giant Robot production lined up as allies.
In fairness, I'm sure Data-Centers would still like improvements as they spin up VMs. For your average laptop/desktop/portable user though? Yeah, we're in the age of appliances for computers (or should be).
Heck, I'm running a laptop from 7 years ago (replaced the HDD it came with for an SSD 2 years ago). Is it the shiniest and sparkliest? No, but it works.
Need to see if they could be using Firefox too. I'd assume even aliens wouldn't use IE, so I won't bother testing that, but Edge is still a possibility.
Its not a question of IF it will get loose, its a question of WHEN, and whether we'll be able to deal with it, or will it mutate to a point where we are all just grey goo.
Just out of curiosity, how many of those mass-transit systems run 24/7365?
I remember visiting Paris which had a lovely Mass transit system... and then running through the subway grabbing the last train before being stranded in the city Center with no way (except an expensive cab ride) back to the suburb house of our friends where we staying.
Once they introduced the hard shell of the 3.5" disk it really removed a lot of the soundstage that was inherent in the 5 1/4" model.
Still, if you insist on going that route, Cassette at least provides a reasonably diverse dynamic range while preserving the warmth of the Zeros and Ones as they were originally compiled.

I think he meant 98% of the people who bother to vote.
Personally I wonder if Voting should be a mandatory part of citizenship as it is in some other countries.
Could be worse.
Could be the Syrian embassy.
Embassy Suites should sue Syria and Ecuador for giving Embassies a bad name.

My guess as well. I'm not sure what more diverse dataset they should have used though that doesn't include a bias of some sort?

I mean, which black hat wouldn't want to game that system?
Judging by the news, quite a few Red Hats are interested in it also.

Maybe he thought "Space Cowboys" was a Documentary? ( https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0186566/

âoeAll these worlds are yours except Europa. Attempt no landing there.â
Agreed.
Its about time the rest of the country didn't have to deal with those coastal elites exporting their dollars and ideas to other parts of the country.
... and yet he's managed to pass so little legislation ... even with full control of the government.
Still built into the gmail web interface ... for now.

(worth a short read and funny as heck)
Considering I can count the number of times I've dual-booted any Mac I've owned over the last 15 years on Zero hands, I'd tend to disagree.
Now, the amount of times I've fired up a Virtual Machine to run something/check something, etc? ... lots more times.

Windows is also aiming for running on an ARM processor, so as long as they have similar standards, they may still be able to Dual Boot?
Especially with physical access compromised.
What about a security consulting and services company who performs electronic and physical pen-tests of US based data centers and R&D shops?
Do you think Apple could put one together (or find/purchase a controlling share in a private one)?
I thought you couldn't memory dump unless the phone unlocked to the device (as of recently, I think iOS10 or 11)?
