If you designed a car to kill people as its first priority, im pretty sure it would be illegal. Sure weapons are used to defend yourself, but if society has less weapons, then you will have less need to defend yourself with weapons.
"inanimate object" simplifies the issue far too much. No one picks up a gun and points it at someone without the threat of imminent death. It's animate in meaning all right.
Im just glad i live in a country where mandatory gun ownership is not necessary.
Its way nicer than the trend in round cars that goes back to the early 90s. Its got a bunch of sharp lines, looks like something from batman or a cylon. I really love the look. I always did want a catamaran though.
Its simply too bad it will cost more than i will make in a lifetime.
I looked up my email address on that leakedsource.com and they found 2 hits in one hack and 1 hit in a few other hacks. Of course they only tell you what website got hacked. Any info other than that till you subscribe ($4 a day).
Sucks. i searched for a few strings before i got a hit so I feel that it may be legitimate. I am seriously considering paying the money. utorrent, anandtech, and this verticlescope thing. Some had plain text passwords! and sometimes i have in the past reused passwords... nasty!
looked up some friends emails and work colleagues and found hits for almost all of them.
Looked up my work domain and found hundreds of hits. Going to probably do it just to warn my co workers now.
Considering you are going to elect donald fucking trump president, I really don't think your claims of continued intellectual superiority hold any merit. The USA started parts of the inter networks in the 60s yes, but has been on the wrong course politically since the 80s. If the leadership becomes insane fascists, then its right to take control of important systems from them.
Ted cruz is a fucking traitorous canadian anyway, trying to suck american cock with these statements. Foreigners always gotta be the hardest in the crew.
America is like a past their prime actor, trying to keep any semblance of control. America is the movie "the wrestler" mixed with orwell and hitler for good measures. We patented it first!! is pretty much the only thing america produces, so i cant fault you for trying to defend your "property".
Everything in history sets a precedent. As fun as destroying this country sounds, that should not be the defacto way of humanity. Someone needs to come up with a better solution because feature generations will use this as an example. Doing nothing is also not an option even though they are assuredly 98% hype. There's a real crime against humanity going on over there and no one really seems to be able to stop it..
"advertisers still spend too much on legacy media rather than new media where the audience has shifted."
Please listen! Move to new media and leave us luddites who dont use facebook or smartphones to rot in our land of no advertising! Pitty us! for we shall soon be as forgotten as a "Target Market" just like those poor usenet souls!
I'll just have to find some way to carry on without advertising, somehow....
"I've been running it on probably a dozen systems since January,"
Bwahaha. Your 6 months of experience on 12 computers is mind blowing as most people have been supporting it for 1.5 years now. Did you even go through the 1151 update? not one machine broke in some way? well try supporting several times more machines than that and let me know come next update. Should be dropping in a month or two.
"And you can turn the "live" part off if you don't like what it shows... or unpin or uninstall the app, you have several options."
And if you want to keep them uninstalled, don't forget to run the following commands after updating windows when they "reset" the OS including file associations and helpfully reinstall applications they know you wouldn't want to be without!
A bios enforcing secure boot is not "bricking" your computer. Having secure boot on or off, as they say, does not affect windows 7 at all. So the solution, is to turn off the feature that you are not using anyway.
Sometimes bios updates change these sorts of settings or reset the UEFI or legacy settings. Its good to know enough about how a computer works to know about secure boot, the newer (not that new anymore) UEFI boot process and the hardware / operating system integration in newer OS's. The people on slashdot are the first people I would expect to be knowledgeable about this, yet 90% of the first 100 or so posts are like "brick this" and F-M$ that... when in reality, windows 7 is getting older but yet is so stable that this is the biggest problem its had in years:) That's the real take away for me.
It's just inevitable that when running newer hardware with older OS's, some bios settings may need to be changed from their defaults. I am happy that I can boot my skylake platform with UEFI on because asrock provided a windows 7 installer patch. It may seem extreme to some, but I am happily still running windows 7. This is another example of a work around for an older OS that doesn't "just work" on new hardware. Manufacturers often assume people are running the newest OS and set options accordingly.
I always turn secure boot off because its kind of pointless so this would not affect me or any computer I have built.
But I think its more like if I agreed to do my job for free and then decided that that wasn't working for me, so i started psychologically manipulating my co-workers to try and extort money from them.
Adding advertising should not be the solution to the business model. Otherwise its an ugly and recursive world.
we're excited to see what the creative community will do with them.
What a fantastic waste of their resources then.
And here's me, not wanting to be creatively manipulated, with the end result being that I consume more. Buy used, save money. Advertising causes need. Advertising's got you on the run.
Car recalls go like, you get a letter in the mail or do the research yourself and then make an appointment at the dealership for no charge repair. If they notice anything amiss they may say something, but that's about the worst thing that can happen.
I'm surprised someone would make such a big deal of tesla doing this when every single car company has the same problem. Of course they know its much better for PR to fix the damn cars, especially as of late.
The point is a recall is trivial from a customers perspective, and a company doing the right thing is nothing but good press (which is like crack to a brand).
The author of the article either doesn't know how the car industry works, or i guess, own a car that has had recalls, (which is every car).
"but to have a third party with foreign membership fucking with our elections is a direct attack on our democratic ideals "
Bwahahaha you have no idea how little control the "rest of the world"(tm) has over america compared to the control that america, and american companies, have over the rest of the world.
"Foreign membership fucking [us]".... HA! To the rest of the world, thats called "american business interests".
the world should be able to vote for the american government with all the shit you people spew out on other countries. We got NO Fucking say man.
Yeah someone figured that out a while ago, well its nice to see the cause being identified (Guess they don't care THAT much about net neutrality afterall...)
But at least they figured out a solution already and this works for me.
Start a youtube video from link. when it does not load, click on the right right sidebar videos. that one loads fine (is it a bug? hope not) Now press ALT + LEFT ARROW and poof your original video in all its glory. Works most times for me.
I actually thought it was flashblock screwing up but my wife has noticed it for months and complained that youtube is "unusable".
Well i dont know thier layout at all but couldn't the US just bomb those positions? not fast enough? I guess theres no such thing as a tactical nuke but if they are all in the side of a mountain, perhaps creative means could be used.
At least coal in the atmosphere will be gone in thousands or tens of thousands of years. Nuclear waste on the otherhand? THAT is a crime on future generations! "A 1000-MW nuclear power plant produces about 27 tonnes of spent nuclear fuel (unreprocessed) every year." And there currently is zero method for safe disposal of this waste.
Sure some reactors can use nuclear waste as fuel, but those aren't the ones americans are building or keeping going.
The answers are solar wind and tidal. The sun puts out as much power as we would ever ever need.
Nuclear will seem as quaint as gas powered lighting in 100 years and a million times more dangerous than lead pipes were.
Personally I have 90 access points near me (several condo towers) so my 2.4ghz is about 300kbps to 6mbps max., when its not completely overwhelmed by noise (huge packet loss).
Sure i got a $300 access point, and that works for some devices at 5ghz, but thats what i had to go to. There are only about 20 5ghz APs and i've heard the 5ghz travels less through walls. Its now an arms race with all my neighbours...
That's the future for most in cities, dense urban environments. So having completely localized network connectivity is the logical solution. This is one of those head slappingly "why didnt I think of that!" technologies, like the iphone or the robertson screw. If they can make it work and market it right!
"and the idea of parts flying around without protection is why I don't own an interference engine."
This is just FUD. The timing belt on my car is replaced every 120,000kms. I replace at 100k. Sure a timing chain allows you to abuse the engine more, but if you are taking care of your car then the interference engine is a solid and proven design.
"THERE'S STILL A GEAR INDICATOR SOMEWHERE, RIGHT???? FKN PAY ATTENTION"
Whatever. I know if i place the selector all the way forward i am in park. Asking people to check the dash every time is only fun for people addicted to screens. Furthermore, it isnt better and they seem to have recognized the problem already and changed the design:
FCA went to a different shifter design in model-year 2015 for the Dodge Charger and Chrysler 300, and changed the Jeep Grand Cherokee shifter for 2016.
Quietly change it without telling customers why. Where have we heard that before... Luckily no one died at least, but these big boys never admit it when they make a mistake. And those cars are still out there for the next 30 years.
"Anonymous posting has become a haven of trolls, far from it's original goal of protecting people when discussing work conditions and the like."
Mouser, this is clearly the cleverest of all trolls. I tip my hat to you sir!! would be a medicore troll attempt, but for your low uid, makes it a masterpiece!
I did not read the rest of your comment. Do NOT use this as justification for ANY change. Fuck mobile users! We should in NO WAY cater to them. Fuck breaking websites so that people can read them on the toilet better!
I agree that driver updates shouldn't be trusted and never use them in the home or WSUS. I learned that in windows xp days. Microsoft always release buggy shit drivers that are sometimes years out of date.
But when you say, "test the hardware they are made to support" i don't agree with that. What MS should be doing, is going out to the local electronics shop, or amazon, and ordering the most popular devices that a driver is for. Things should always be tested to the real world standards, not supplied by the manufacturer. Thats how you get the VW emissions scandal and why consumer reports is super popular. This is also why user submitted reviews beat out most other review sites, magazines, etc.

DISM
Not simple and intuitive? well you will have lots of opportunities to practice as there is a new complete OS update every 6 months!
And dont forget, right click uninstall only uninstalls the application from the current user. Its still installed on the machine.
