It's obvious that bulk shipping some items is more efficient than individually shipping items. If there's enough demand for an item to ship it by train car, boatload or, truck load to an area, the cost of that shipping will be fractional to the cost of UPS / USPS / FedEx delivery. Bulk staple items like bottled water, toilet paper, paper towels, sodas, milk, laundry detergent, etc are just not good targets for Amazon.
With curbside pickup at Walmart, Target, and grocery stores now, it's arguably easier to stop by the store on the trip home and load up those items. Cuts down on packages left outside your doorstep that can be stolen.
Amazon just needs to rebrand this brick and mortar process. Call it 'AI PreShipping', Amazon can leverage their AWS power to analyze regional shopping characteristics and PRE-Ship your items to your convenient PRE-Ship Storage Location (re-branded from Whole Foods). As your Pre-Shipping items will be stored at our facility, rent will be covered by your Prime Membership.
it sounds great in theory, but the reality is that so many websites we interact with end up being accounts. Trying to remember complex passwords to 5 sites is one thing, 50 sites? 100sites? 500sites? Everyone will have their limit about how many they can reasonably remember.
If you are posting in this thread and you have a password plan already.. you are years ahead of most users. If you like a complex password algorithm where you create unique passwords for everything and remember the pattern, that probably works. . If you like a password manager, whether it stores locally or in the cloud, again that probably works and you are doing better than at least 90% of users.
If you don't have a password plan, your password is probably already compromised.
Very few real journalists in the world today.. we traded them in for blogs and twitter feeds. The classic line, 'a$ did not respond immediately' which means they spent no time researching a story before plopping it out on the world.
I have one, I'd like to use it for keeping track of extended family / friends. But, more and more it's just advertising BS.. i deliberately delete news stories from my feed... the 'social' in media is losing.. it's just becoming another media outlet.
The full Office suite is overkill for most users needs. The occasional person uses advance macros, programability, but by far they have always been used to edit simple / small documents.. Those users have so many other options now, and likely are using some tablet, phone or web based option.
The issue is that GPU scaling has exceeded the functional life of passwords. So we make longer more complex passwords and next year or the next some GPU breakthrough will enable those to be broken in reasonable time. It's just a delaying action against the inevitable death of passwords as a valid authentication option.
Having just had a landline repaired, it's fairly obvious that the institutional knowledge base for maintaining POTS service is decaying. I expect a digital transition in the relatively near future.
People are using email clients all the time, that email client on your phone is using imap to communicate to your mail storage on gmail. I see very few people using their phone's browser to login to the mobile version of any webmail. I see phone specific native clients in wide use. Gmail's webclient is very good, but for certain use cases a dedicated client works better. And since gmail provides standard imap access, thunderbird works with it just fine.
Email client software is far from dead, and it would be nice to keep thunderbird alive.
Which is only a problem if you have numerous open orders at any one time... that are delayed shipping for some reason.. You are wanting to batch order and have amazon itemize your ticket when shipped.. vs itemize on order which is what they do. I'm sure you have some reason for wanting that, but it doesn't fit my use case.
It really doesn't matter what media you select. The important part is your schedule of updating. Ex.. You pick optical discs and you burn a new disc every 3 months and store it securely. The important fact is not the storage media, it's the 3 month schedule of updating it. You can switch media out on your 3 month update schedule, use flash media, external hard drive, tape, whatever. As long as your most recent backup is no more than 3 months old you'll still be able to read it.
Where most people fail at this is the schedule.. And that's why an online backup solution would work better for the majority of people. Schedule your online backups with one of the secure vendors and let it run automatically.
Issues like this shoot a big hole through BYOD and any consideration of security compliance. You now have a deliberately insecure device with no supported patch available. Good luck with your auditors.
because syslogd cannot handle early boot reporting. By definition Systemd is the first thing to run, so any logging related to this time in the boot sequence has to be handled by it. Since it has to do it anyway, make the utility available for general use. Why have another utility duplicate the functionality when Systemd has to have it for early boot time logging.
Incorrect, systemd could have just put it's log messages in cache to be passed to the logging daemon when it became available.. just like all the socket based priority features trumpeted about for boot order sequencing.
The problem is with 207 'legacy systems'.. that's going to mean there's a few systems that every employee uses.. time clock, HR, email, intranet, etc. Then there's 200 systems that 5-20 people use. Probably tracking systems within each department. So, numerous small focused systems are going to be merged into 1 gargantuan do-it-all system. Nothing ever goes wrong with these plans....
There seems to be a design disconnect. We're making bigger phones but now a smaller interface for the watch... why does this make sense?
How about we need to scrap the phone concept. We need the combination of glass / watch / bluetooth ear buds / mic. Wearable technology that replaces all the crap we currently do with a phone. And once that's matured we just implant it under the skin.
The watch style devices should have solar charging and kinetic charging to hopefully avoid the wall brick charging completely.
I think your list is slightly off, Debian, Redhat, SuSE. I think the systemd situation clearly demonstrates that Debian is the dog wagging the Ubuntu tail.
Police are not a neutral third party. They are paid by the same state that pays the prosecutor and the judicial system. Neutrality in that setting is legal fiction.
The basic problem is that passwords are obsolete. The average person's ability to remember a password has been exceeded by the computational capacity of modern computers / gpu's. It's time to move on to some new authentication technology.
And the other issue is that for basic tasks - web browser, email, chat, basic word processor, the 10 year old windows xp machines still work fine. There's been no compelling need for the basic consumer to upgrade a pc in quite awhile. The PC churn is over, hardware is and has been advanced enough not to need replacement every 2 years for a low end user. (Pentium 4 was introduced in 2000, Core 2 in 2006).
Depends on the size of the business. A large mega corporation would have no problem with that type of redundancy. A 10 person small business is a totally different beast.
It's already law in the US that patients can have access (and copies) to their own records. The survey was about electronic access to electronic records. There would be a legitimate concern if you allow patients to add information into the doctor's record without any supervision or oversight. There are services that allow individuals to compile and maintain their own records already. And only 4% said no access... 96% said access of some type.. probably with need for explanation of how this would work in practice.
So, physician's don't want patients entering data, altering data, deleting data from the physician's electronic record.. yea that's newsworthy.

Perhaps they can find a way to store the heat energy for use during darkness.
(I guess the blood system analogy reads better than just saying they made a radiator.)
