The Reaper has a 950-shaft-horsepower (712 kW) turboprop engine (compared to the Predator's 115 hp (86 kW) piston engine). The greater power allows the Reaper to carry 15 times more ordnance payload and cruise at about three times the speed of the MQ-1. The aircraft is monitored and controlled by aircrew in the Ground Control Station (GCS), including weapons employment.
In this case, though, it's relevant measure. If you can make your own static web page (not exactly the height of coding ability), hosting it on S3 is trivial.
... the goddam drone had a body cam on it and now we've got photos of the bastards (or bitches, as may apply) who picked it up and face recognition tells us who, in the Chinese government, picks up drones from the ocean.
Next up: NSA does identity theft of Chinese military individuals who pick up drones in a black op.

What the hell makes you think the price of "buying a 30% stake in three subsidiaries of Goldwind, China's biggest wind-turbine manufacturer" would in any way or form be counted in Apple's R&D budget?
If your friends are all on that platform, you can't say no.
Why yes, yes I can say "no." Generally I don't have a compelling interest to, but I mean for fuck's sake. This is why you shouldn't get your fucking news from Facebook. This is also why you shouldn't hold any conversation you don't want to be publicly associated with your name and face on Facebook.
There are other services like Discord. One of my friends actually had to move off Facebook because she got on the wrong side of the SJWs and they harassed her off by reporting every image she posted until her account was being suspended every week. (And no, Facebook does not check the actual picture that was reported before banning accounts.)
There are still tons of IRC servers all over the place. I even run one!
Facebook can say "let them eat cake" all they fucking want. It'd be a shame if nobody used their platform any more for them, but what do I fucking care?
GOOD GOD PEOPLE! WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU! WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU GETTING YOUR FUCKING NEWS ON FACEBOOK, AND WHY THE FUCK IS FACEBOOK THE ONLY WAY YOU CAN CONTACT YOUR FRIENDS?!
WHAT THE FUCK KIND OF MILLENNIAL SNOWFLAKE (i scream this as a millennial myself) ARE YOU THAT LEAVING FACEBOOK IS COMPORABLE TO EARNING CITIZENSHIP IN ANOTHER COUNTRY?!?!?!
Argh!!1eleven1!1!
THE FUCKING ALL CAPS ARE SO COMPELLING, I CAN'T CONTROL MY FUCKING BLADDER AND I'M PEEING DOWN BOTH LEGS AND STUFF.

According to the Treasury, the largest foreign holder of U.S. debt is China, which owns more than $1.24 trillion in bills, notes, and bonds or about 30% of the over $4 trillion in Treasury bills, notes, and bonds held by foreign countries. In total, China owns about 10% of publicly held U.S. debt.
Trump isn't going to collapse that and China isn't either, you know that.

My wife uses a paid Dropbox account.
I asked her to read this.
It doesn't end well.

Really?
And who owns the United States?
Donald Trump promises to ‘bomb the hell out of ISIS’ in new radio ad.

I've been on Slashdot so long, I bought the T-shirt years ago (seriously).
It's still what it's always been, for me:
It's news for nerds; stuff that matters.
Nerds often are professionals who certainly know how to code, but also cater to a user base that certainly does not.
That's why statements like, "Don't use (Facebook, Twitter, etc.)," " ... simply code it," are so annoying in some contexts.
While the savvy among us can do miracles of a semi-religious nature, those whom we serve cannot.
... and Putin knows it.
Obama is just giving the guy a heads up.
... it's German law and fuck the rest of you.
Do you acknowledge the oxymoron?
So "Donald Trump" is the "Hitler" that replaced "You must be gay."
TL;DR
I'd rather read your careful analysis so I could agree or not.
What the hell makes you think the price of "buying a 30% stake in three subsidiaries of Goldwind, China's biggest wind-turbine manufacturer" would in any way or form be counted in Apple's R&D budget?
You made my point, didn't you?
What you are saying ...
No, what I am saying is what I said.
Here it is for your review:
"Suggesting" ... nothing of substance here.
...
Apple Will Charge You $69 To Replace a Lost AirPod
think so.
This.
Plus, it's always "Russia."
Fuck ... if I weren't retired from systems, I'd blame any lack of competence in my part on the goddam Russians.
Spot on.
However we will still have to wait as to whether a Trump administration will turn out to be a good or a bad experience.
Prior to January 1, 2016, I would have a snarky answer for this.
However ...
In late December, 2015, my wife expressed concern that Trump would win the GOP nomination.
I assured her that, "Trump would be gone by the end of February."
Then, I predicted, all along the way, that Trump would lose in the worst spanking in the history of US elections.
Shortly after midnight, November 8-9, I was like, "WTF!?"
So, my political predictive super powers are bullshit.
Instead of a smart-ass, uninformed remark, I'll adopt a wait-and-see and hope for the best.
The undereducated middle class whites of the rust belt region were not in a foreign country.
Trump won seven out of 10 non-college white men and six out of 10 non-college women.
The largest voting bloc were the ones who didn't show up.
And 31415926535897 is correct in that HRC and DNC baggages had enough anchors in them to sink the fucking Titanic.
[Disclaimer: I didn't vote for the goddam pussy-grabber.]
You use Facebook.
You do grok that people who sign up for Facebook are fully aware of all that shit as stated right there in the signup process?

As to why people use Facebook, it's none of your fucking business.

I agree and would extend the thought process to include that Facebook members sign up via Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
The only "right" any members have is to leave.
Or, you can use your own critical thinking skills, check multiple adversarial sources, and be done with it.
This obviously failed, right? That's why we're having a conversation about "fake news," right?
It's what Facebook members have asked for, right?
Facebook understands its business model better than you do.
