Why wouldn't the media do its job and report on such accidents? It's no different than when a plane crashes. It happens so rarely it is a news event.
The same with Tesla. The number of crashes of Tesla vehicles is small, but because of the hype surrounding Tesla, promulgated by Musk himself, any crash should be examined.
If Musk doesn't like the media reporting on the crashes of his vehicles, then perhaps he shouldn't be out and about promoting how safe they are or that they practically drive themselves.
Considering the con artist did business with an Iranian bank which funds terrorists, while Iran was under sanctions, and didn't get penalized, you are correct.
The same when the con artist did business with Cuba while it was under sanctions. No penalty.
and if they spend that much time at a desk, they have a desktop.
Except the "desktop" Apple makes is a trashcan with all the parts welded to the motherboard. No upgrading, no replacing bad parts. If something goes wrong or breaks, you have a multi-thousand dollar paper weight.
If the white helmets are so great, why does no one in the liberated cities ever have anything good to say? Why is there headquarters in the same building as ISIS?
Tell us again who the terrorists are? The ones who are trying to help people lead a better life or those who deliberately target civilians and rescuers? Go home comrade, you're too drunk, and stupid, to come up with anything original.
Of course US will say they're the good guys and Russia will say they're the bad guys. Who is right? There are no independent journalists on the ground. You will never know.
Faith is all you have to go on.
Holy shit! You Russian trolls are really losing it. Your blatant, "But who knows what's real?" is your last, pathetic, desperate attempt to say something, anything, to make it seem there is no truth to the situation.
The fact is the white helmets are like the Red Cross. Neutral people whose sole job is rescue people after Russia bombs a hospital or civilians in bread lines. To claim otherwise is simply the latest propaganda to come out of your St. Petersburg location.
Now scurry along and get your bottle of vodka. Vlad will be proud of you for putting out another lie. It's all Russia is good for.
These are the same organizations who, when Russia deliberately bombs hospitals or civilians standing in bread lines in Syria, claim "terrorists" were targeted. And then, when the white helmets show up to do their work, Russia bombs them again so pictures and news of the deliberate attacks will be suppressed.
These are the same organizations who reported on the killing of a 10-year old girl in Eastern Ukraine when the Ukrainian military and volunteers were fighting the Russian invasion in 2015. The claim was she was killed outright in an artillery attack.
Only problem, the girl never existed. It was the literal embodiment of fake news. In fact, when a BBC news crew tracked down some of the Russian news teams who reported on the "incident", they asked why the Russians reported the fake news. On camera one guy said the girl never existed while another guy said, "We had to broadcast it."
Also makes it virtually impossible for that person to ever hold a respectable or half-way decent job and virtually dooming him to a life of ostracism, poverty, and whatever crimes he can still commit.
Then perhaps they shouldn't have been a criminal and this wouldn't be an issue.
Why would anyone think signing up for an account meant that account would somehow cease to exist once you no longer owned the car? Not only that, why would one sign up for an account which explicitly links you to your car?
Oh right. Forgot. Because you can have your "smart" phone linked to your car so you can fiddle with apps instead of concentrating on the road.
As has been said about Facebook, you deserve what you get. Stop treating cars like a computer and stick to driving.
All one had to do was look at the lousy state of software and web sites today to see this is true. It's quite obvious little to no thought is given on how to make something work such that one doesn't have to jump through hoops.
I have many times said the most perfect word processing program ever developed was WordPefect 5.1 for DOS. Ones productivity was astonishing. It just worked.
Now we have the bloated behemoth Word which does its utmost to get in the way of you doing your work. The only way to get it to function is to turn large portions of its "features" off, and even then it still insists on doing something other than what you told it to do.
Then we have the abomination of Windows 10, which is nothing but Clippy on 10X steroids. It is patently obvious the people who program this steaming pile have never heard of simplicity. Who in their right mind would think having to "search" for something is more efficient than going directly to it? I would ask the question if these people wander around stores "searching" for what they're looking for, but then I realize that's how their entire life is run. They search for everything online rather than going directly to the source. It's no wonder they complain about not having time to things. They're always searching.
Web sites are another area where these people have no clue what they're doing. Anything that might be useful is hidden behind dropdown menus, flyouts, popup bubbles and intriately designed mazes of clicks needed to get to where you want to go. When someone clicks on a line of products, they shouldn't be harassed about what part of the product line they want to look at. Give them the information and let the user go where they want.
This rant could go on, but this article explains clearly why we have regressed when it comes to software and web design. Instead of making things simple and easy to use, using the one or two brain cells they have, programmers and web designers let the software do what it wants without considering, should it be done like this?
From the beginning of the Russian attack against Ukraine, the Russian military has been using and testing its electronic warfare capabilities. They were even able to track an app Ukrainian artillery units were using to calculate their fire and use it to target the units.
The OSCE monitors routinely report their UAVs are being jammed while over Russian-occupied territory. Also, these monitors report on a regular basis the presence of Russian mobile electronic jamming vehicles.
Fortunately, as was stated further up, this jamming has given us a look into Russian procedures and allows us to find ways around it or at the least, to mitigate it. As a result, Ukrainian military units are able to communicate and coordinate their activities to target Russian military personnel on Ukrainian territory.
Now that Mr. McComas has said he is/was part of the problem, how much money was he raking in for being part of that problem, and is he returning any of it?
I like these mea culpas, such as from Reddit or Facebook. "I was raking in the dough and living the high life, but yeah, we screwed you and probably society. Live and learn. Excuse me, my yacht awaits."
It always blows my mind when I see users who constantly post pro-Trump free market posts on slashdot calling for the death and hanging of someone or some organization who is doing just that!
This is why we have death penalty.. This punk already made continual threats to kill his grandmother, burn her house and kill her dogs, two different bomb threats to a tv station as well as caused the death of one person. Imagine what will happen if he gets out.
He obviously believes the rules of society don't apply to them. Those rules should be harshly applied so he can't kill again.
Considering one has to throw out their phone or Mac after three years, or when something breaks and you can't replace the part, they're probably dumping all the broken systems into the furnace.
To the average person, the only reason IT people exist is to make sure they can check in on Facebook every 30 seconds while at work and replace their keyboard when they spill coffee or soda on it.
Aside from that, IT has no useful purpose and thus is seen as a debilitating cost. Why spend money on something which provides no value?
Sheldon already told people how bad hot air dryers are. Apparently the authors of the study simply regurgitated what he said and added a few pieces so it doesn't sound exactly the same.
You mean after all those times I've asked if, when buying a Mac, you have to throw it out after three years or when something breaks because all the parts are welded together and I got downmodded, that I've been telling the truth?
The State Department has ended an Obama-era program to grant visas to foreign entrepreneurs who want to start companies in the United States.
Because Obama did it. Someone who wanted bright, energetic people who wanted to better themselves and their community must be stopped. Especially since Obama wanted them to come to this country.
Meanwhile, we'll continue to allow the EB-5 visa program to remain even though it is essentially the same thing. The only difference is with EB-5, the money would flow to family members in this corrupt administration.
We're going to force people to turn over their information simply to see if they said anything wrong while our so-called president hides what's on his tax returns.
Saying you'll delete your Facebook account is one thing. Doing it is another. Especially in the tech industry where if you're not on at least half a dozen anti-social media sites, people will think there's something wrong with you.
Until these people actually delete their accounts, it's all talk.
A petition to force Mozilla developers to produce a browser and not some eye candy laden, bloated, steaming pile which hides operations from the user and breaks nearly all add-ons unless they spy on you.

Keep up the lies. The people the white helmets rescue are very grateful because they know if it were Assad's army the people would be killed on the spot. Oh look, your lie about the white helmetsA being associate with terrorists is false. How odd.
Oh look, an article describing how Russia deliberately bombs these rescuers so they can't help the people being killed.
Tell us again who the terrorists are? The ones who are trying to help people lead a better life or those who deliberately target civilians and rescuers? Go home comrade, you're too drunk, and stupid, to come up with anything original.
If they are neutral why aren't they rescuing people after the US bombs a hospital or civilians in bread lines?
Oh right, they aren't neutral, they support the terrorist side of the Syrian civil war.
Because the U.S. isn't bombing hospitals or bread lines in Syria so there's no need for the white helmets to do anything.
But keep up the lies. All you're doing is proving who you are. You Russians are as stupid as you are naive.
Of course US will say they're the good guys and Russia will say they're the bad guys. Who is right? There are no independent journalists on the ground. You will never know.

Except last year the con artist said he'd lower drug prices. Then he picked a guy who is a former pharmaceutical executive who raised drug prices.
Even in February's State of the Union address he said he'd lower drug prices.
What has he done so far? Reduce regulations on oil and gas drillers, put a guy in charge of the EPA who is vowed and determined to let polluters off the hook, and started a trade war with China which is already costing Midwest farmers.

Sheldon already told people how bad hot air dryers are. Apparently the authors of the study simply regurgitated what he said and added a few pieces so it doesn't sound exactly the same.
Facebook is now admitting that data of most of its 2 billion users has been collected and used by third parties.
Needless to say, Zuckerberg and Facebook proper sincerely apologize for this usage and take people's privacy very seriously.
You mean after all those times I've asked if, when buying a Mac, you have to throw it out after three years or when something breaks because all the parts are welded together and I got downmodded, that I've been telling the truth?
I'm shocked!
This is simply another reason not to install spyware on your system.
Their claim to be "helpful" and "protect" you is the same BS the Department of Homeland Security uses.
Straight out of Orwell.
