Some of those bags, a tiny fraction, are used for carrying lunches or taking out trash or whatever. Most just find their way to landfills. Now you have to intentionally buy the bags you're specifically going to use. I see that as a win. Go boo hoo back to "I hate change" shack.
I'm surprised. Are they going out in the US too? I thought E.R. doctors and surgeons would always carry pagers because the messages have guaranteed delivery unlike SMS.
You should never need the glasses. The laser shoots down into the bowl. You'd have to get your head under the mouth piece and look up into the lighter. It's gimmick anyway. It's not going to make it any better to smoke than a traditional lighter or better yet, a mini vape.
I wasn't aware there was even an attempt to do this. I've always thought that highly enriched fuel could never be turned back into power grade, but if possible, it would be a massive boost to our energy reserves.
The waste will still be a problem. It will leak. It's already leaking in Nevada and only the local papers seem to bother covering it. Tritium has been found outside Wattsbar Nuclear and TVA keeps buying up land to keep it from getting out.
It's rare to see the dev of a tool respond here on Slashdot. That's more typical on Hackernews. Seriously this place is a cesspit.:-P
But good on you, and thanks for clearing this up too. People don't get enough appreciation for this kind of work, especially porting your plugin to WebExtensions.. something that has been really challenging to quite a few plugin authors.
Thank you for your candour and information and setting the record straight.
Well some of these can be reimplemented in WebExtensions, but it requires a lot of work. A lot of the original plugin developers just don't have the time; or they may have started on them and are still actively working on replacements; but it could be several more months or a year till they're done.
Or just even normal sized trains in the tunnels. Why have car capacity limitations?! That's the whole point of a fucking train. You've can easily hold 10+ people in the same square area of a train than you could in car.
Yea, if you're flying domestically, you shouldn't allow anyone to search your laptop. Period.
Mine has full disk encryption (including encrypted boot using Grub with the luks module).
The sad thing is thought, if the TSA detains you, no one is responsible. You lose your plane ticket money. Travel insurance doesn't cover the TSA either.
New York is one of like 2 to 3 US cities with an actual train system and it's falling apart.
I'm fine with capping Uber and requiring minimum wage, but for god sake fix Penn Station, dump a shit ton of money into the degrading subway system and invest in that critical infrastructure!
Uber is a shit company. They're using marketing speak for their now "sensor/data gathering" cars. I hope no city lets them put an autonomous car back on the road. Fuck Uber and their toxic company.
Wi-Max was pretty fast though. I used both Sprint Wi-Max (on the HTC Evo) and Vivid Wireless (Wi-Max in Australia).. I mean they weren't great compared to wired of course, but they were both pretty decent.
I think it's more than that. The algorithms Facebook and Google use are pretty damn powerful. Google analytics and Facebook like widgets are everywhere. One of two things are happening:
1) The algorithms they train are so good, they can predict what you're going to desire and place an ad for it before you know it yourself. You think your phone is listening to you, but it's simply an analysis of all your other data. What you say with your friends about a thing you desire is just something it can predict.
2) Ads are pretty subversive. I know all about ads and I run ad block on my phone an browser, but I know all the ads I see every day cycling around the city or driving around are getting into my head. There is no way I can avoid them. People say these things about a product they're thinking of buying, not realizing they've already seen tons of print ads for it that didn't register in their conscious mind. Then they see an online ad and think the phone is listening to them.
The saddest part is that these algorithms are incredibly good. So good people think Facebook is listening. All that A.I. and research.. is going into selling you shit.. and not into anything truly useful that will move humanity forward. Can we take 1/8 of Facebook and Google's AI team and hire them at the JPL and work on getting to Mars please? Or cancer research? Or fusion reactors?
Probably more training. More, "Uber will never ask you for your password. Do not give anyone your cell-phone confirmation code." Just more basic training for people who never got this or understand how computers and authentication work.
At least then there is lower liability. You have proof that you tried to train your employee in correct security procedures.
America use to have more passenger rail in the 1940s than Europe has NOW. In less than 100 years, roads expanded and pulled our cities apart into unwalkable spaces.
It can contract back in less time. Seattle just pumped $50 billion into ST3 and its' going to make a massive impact by 2023. Their rail construction is always ~6 months ahead of schedule too. Florida has high speed rail and will hit Orlando before 2030. California is struggling but they better not let that program die.
this is the best idea ever. This is immediately better than SW 7/8. I'm not even trolling. Those were terrible. I want to see this. I want to see Annihilation, StarWars style.
The person should have been doing her job. At the same time, Uber hires people telling them it's a self driving vehicle, removes the 2 driver-per-car to reduce costs, and then tests disabling safety features because, "Hey it's okay. We have a human in case something goes wrong."
Fuck everything about this. Uber is equally at fault here. Sure she could have prevented the accident if she had been doing her god damn job. Uber could have prevented the accident if they didn't recklessly disable their own lidar and auto-brake algorithms to test their (failed) computer vision system AT NIGHT!
This girl made a mistake, one that will haunt her for the rest of her life. A girl on a bicycle is dead. There is plenty of blame to go around. But at a minimum, given Uber's track record, they should not be allowed to put these pieces of shit on the road.
Telsa has had a car crash into a truck and another into a barrier with their lane assist (they should be forced to rename that from "auto-pilot. It's not fucking auto-pilot). These systems give people a false sense of security and make people less aware, less active drivers. We are a good 15 year minimum from true autonomous vehicles and it's a fucking hard problem space.
Even with how expensive it is to expand rail, we could probably expand rail at a fraction of the price of self driving tech. Singapore and London already have self driving trains. Let's make transportation better for everyone in America first and catch up to the rest of the world before we work on complicated stuff that's only good for its cool factor:
Slashdot Mirror
Not to mention it ruins the used game market. No more trading in old games. You no longer own a game either. You own a license to a game.
Chair Face Chip-n-Dale!
Is the whole thing open source and can you self host it?

Time to put something useful on it, like Linux

I already told me roommate I'd smash one if it was in the house. Fuck that nose. Disconnect it and throw it out your dorm room window. Do not want.

It's Steve Urkel's clown car!

> h1b pilots
Other countries don't have shortages because they get paid a lot more. Why the hell would anyone want to get a visa to be a pilot here?

Well, Telix killed the telegraph log before any of that.
Yea, it feels like Getty should be liable here. Is the USPS going to go after them now? I feel like they should.
