I mean, they had to do an honest-to-goodness review before they could determine that they weren't collecting the content of these phone and text conversations - which weren't part of Facebook at all, I might add.
The story refers to a “DisplayLink protocol”, which makes it sound like some standard... but it’s a proprietary solution developed by a specific company for controlling a display over USB.
It’s been obvious for a few years now that people have started using “bricked” as a synonym for “not working at the moment”. I’m not sure why, since it flies in the face of why “brick” was chosen as the descriptor.
Since I hear this misuse from the tech press semi-regularly, I suspect the fault lies with some of them. Saying “the update bricked my phone” sounds more dramatic (and less clueless) than “my phone won’t start right now, and I’m not sure why”.
That part of the submission confused me - if payment is offered and If it’s the coin of the realm, how can they legally decline it? It’s not like “cashless” transactions aren’t using the same currency.
Depends on the state. I don’t believe teachers are underpaid in my home state of Washington... at least west of the Cascades.
Now if you want to say that education is underfunded overall, then you probably have a stronger case. Or, for that matter, if you wanted to argue the state hasn’t hired enough teachers - class sizes are larger than is optimal. But that’s not the same thing.
Given how fast the drone was going, they’re fortunate it didn’t go through either of the windows on either side of the point of impact! There could’ve been serious injuries.

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
If I remember my history correctly, World War Two was won largely on the efforts of five Allied prisoners of war operating as an underground sabotage group out of Luft-Stalag 13, right in the heart of Germany.
But since you paid with Apple Pay, they've also got your Apple ID, and maybe even your phone number.
You don’t seem to know how Apple Pay works - neither piece of information is involved. Additionally, the bank holds any financial liability - not the consumer.
My first thought was that Panera doesn’t have my credit card number, since I’ve always used NFC payments (Apple Pay) there. But still - with physical address, email address, and birthday, it probably wouldn’t take much for a bad guy to bluff his way into any number of my other accounts and/or steal my mail to get any physically sent verification (like Citi uses).
If it were only a matter of some jerk getting into my Panera account... but that is the least of my worries.

Also you should compare cars under the similar driving conditions.
So limit the comparison to just drivers in the San Francisco and Phoenix metropolitan areas?
I call shenanigans. It's been quite a while since I hit 30mph in a vehicle anywhere in Seattle.

That would explain a lot regarding what they refer to as "customer service"...

Yeah, it's a good thing Windows 10 updates never break Microsoft’s own Surface hardware.
There - I made the sarcastic comment stronger for you.
Does nobody understand this word anymore.

The *monitors* are not dead.
They’re just pinin’ for the fjords?
Hey, that was quite interesting - thanks for the link!
It’s also interesting to discover that states *can* pass laws requiring the acceptance of cash, if they choose to do so.

teachers are very underpaid.

Hard to fault him
Why? He's earned billions of dollars specifically because of what Facebook is.

Things do indeed appear to have gone very wrong.

You forgot about quatro-triticale.
No. Only workarounds in microcode that reduce performance.
