The thing about Alexa is that many people who don't own the Echo -- or its smaller siblings, the Tap and the Echo Dot -- haven't been able to see what Alexa is capable of. The new tool [...] solves that problem. All you have to do is head to the website, sign in with your Amazon credentials...
Oups, it requires an Amazon account. No demo for me, then.
Also, I don't see the point of encrypting the information on those flash drives. Either they're in the plane and have the same type of information as all the other systems already have, or they're floating on the ocean so that people can find them to help find a missing plane.
From what I've read on forums, it seems a lot of people are trying to use the 18650's from old laptop and power tool batteries or order the cheap "ULTRAFIRE" brand on eBay. And from the comments on those forums, I'd say there really is a danger with these stupid devices.
Even if you use one with the built-in battery, who's to say the manufacturer didn't cut costs by going with the same ULTRAFIRE battery?
I'd be more interested in analyzing the BOM of each exploded device.
The problem is, copyright was made to protect the authors and their works. They get to control who can have a copy, the terms, etc. However, that control was supposed to be for a limited time (I think it was 20 years) but that period has been extended to ludicrous lengths.
In exchange for that extended protection, the authors/publishers should be obligated to sell their work in all countries, including dubs and/or subs for the official languages of the countries. If they can't, then no copyright for you!NEXT!
There should also be penalties for selling low-quality versions of their works, such as only selling a 4:3 version of a movie if the theatrical release was 16:9.
Even if the upgrades were all 100% successful and all of the hardware had proper drivers, it's still an asshole move on Microsoft's part, just to be able to say "Windows 10 recently crossed 300 million monthly active devices" to the press.

Alexa doesn't exists!
In other news, MySpace still exists?
Is there currently TWENTY black boxes on a plane?

I've always had 3rd-party cookies disabled anyway, so even if I wanted I couldn't use their "service".
http://www.aboutads.info/ is the domain I found for Digital Advertising Alliance. Can anyone confirm?
Oh please. Swiss cheese is full of holes, so you can logically conclude that their security is full of holes too.
Cars will crash into the legs of this thing. Then the bus will crash down and kill people.

Those 18650's are not called "ULTRAFIRE" for nothing...

I'm sorry but our skin is capable of much more than three levels of pain.
What happens if you just touch those robots? They'll think we're trying to inflict light pain?
300 baud? Surely you mean 110.

Or at least, add a complementary toast mode.

This sounds like the time I tried to order something at Monolith Burger.
As long as I can get an order of EXTRA BIG ASS FRIES, I'm okay with that.

I think you just insulted pigs everywhere.
My Apple keyboard has F1 through F19, although I've never used F13 and beyond.
Now that I think about it, it might be time to put them to some use and bind them to functions of some sort.
