Everybody likes Putin so much his party gets 99.5% votes with 99.4% turnout in a republic whose population got expelled then mercifully let to return twice, and has been at a civil war with Russia until 2000 when it was brutally pacified, and some insurgency is smoldering to this day.
Well at least it was not 99.5% of the 160% voter turnout like in the last Russian election.
If your turn your phone off/reboot the moment the police turn up it means you can't film them with it. So you have to choose between filing and risking them grabbing it, or protecting your privacy.
Phones need a panic button. Say tap the power button three times quickly and it goes into a locked down mode where it records video as long as you hold the volume button down, and the moment you let go it reboots and all data is safety encrypted.
Kinda sucks that we need to use suicide bomber tactics now.
Just don't lock the phone with a fingerprint in the first place. It is super weak lock mechanism in the first place.
He's more like a little boy who has no idea what to do or how to do it.
Little boys and girls are tyrants. Children are sociopaths who must be trained to be civilized human beings [1]. Sometimes training doesn't take, ergo, Trump.
[1] There's a quote around there that says this better than I could, so if anyone knows it please let me know!
It is not training as such, but they need to grow up emotionally. And they are not sociopaths, children are "psychopaths", though we usually wouldn't use that word for pre-adolescents.
Since when is artificial intelligence ready to audit organic emotional intelligence? AI cant even have a believable conversation at the 3rd grade level.
They can't even have a believable conversion at preschool level.
No I think he wants it to die because he likes competition. As long as Apple has their own system they will not allow competition on the world's most widely used mobile platforms.

...because I had to look it up.:D
Sounds they could put the Apple logo in the dictionary under intrasigent. It fits them on both their positive and negative sides.
You don't have to be anti-science to think that we need better regulation on GMOs. In particular the Monopoly (or almost of ) by Monsanto on a lot of the base patents when it comes to GMOs is a bigger issue than almost any other with GMOs...
Monsoto is a pretty bad company and there are many things wrong with them, but they are not monopoly or a near monopoly, they are not even the biggest player on the market.
Though if they are allowed to bought by Bayer, they probably will be combined.
Neon is horrible. Copying the bloody awful flat icon crap that (cr)Apple instigated and then Windows 10 slavishly copied.
I think you got the order of events mixed up. It bloody awful style that Microsoft introduced in Windows 8 and everybody hated, and then Google and Apple for God's know why slavishly copied.
Could you please explain what you mean by this? Does your keyboard have a special "Compose" button?
Yeah it is that usually useless button with a menu on it. I think it is supposed to be a right mouse button in windows, but I have never heard of anybody using it for that, so it is very useful to make the compose button.
I put Google as the worst. They started as a search engine and making revenue from advertising. Which isn't so bad.
They expanded into email, which seemed a reasonable way to get more advertising revenue.
Then they bought online media through Youtube, which was great for their strength in content delivery, and provided more vehicles for ad revenue.
But somewhere they stopped saying "don't be evil" and now they link your accounts in all the services they acquire, track your dns lookups, your searches, your phonecalls, your contacts, your webpages (through fonts), your map searches, your every location through traffic, they converted your email address into a social media profile which they track as ruthlessly and lucratively as Facebook ever did... They even photograph your home, document your wifi access points etc, etc.
At least Facebook never pretended to be anything other than an ad-based social media company.
But facebook has been abusing the data more, at least in a way that is visible to public.
You forgot Google also collects you passwords and credit card details in plain text, if you don't make sure you are not logged into Chrome.
Food at the theatre? How horrible. I am bothered enough already by the crunching and slurping sounds from soda and snacks.
Yeah, sounds like a terrible idea, especially combined with waiting staff and lighting as well.....
Not only is a fucking aweful idea though, some people here on this very site seems to like that, and is asking for move similar movie ruining "service".
that google sold him $100k worth of advertising before collecting any money (there couldn't have been much in his savings account). And they didn't bother to verify much. It tells me they're having trouble moving ad space....
Well apparently they billed in him €17 the first month, which seems about right. I am more thinking the rest is some kind of scam.
I would have thought AI had already beaten us at those games long before beating us at chess or go. Note sure if I am supposed to feel good as a human or bad as a programmer now.
So that I can live a lifetime where I never make a mistake and everyone in the world is a moron compared to me.
Well, he makes alot of mistakes and often even admits to them, but that just doesn't make as good news and doesn't get spreads as wide when he is being impolite or arrogant.

It's not suddenly, in 1979, tens of millions of gay men suddenly started showing signs of immunological deficiency.
Tens of millions? I don't think so. Surely you mean thousands.

The problem with Trump leaks is that they usually come from Trump himself when he opens his mouth.
Right, Apple - with approximately 230 billion USD in cash on hand - is really worried about the size of its bank account.
How do you think they got that money???
How do your logic even work?
Why? You don't like competition?
No I think he wants it to die because he likes competition. As long as Apple has their own system they will not allow competition on the world's most widely used mobile platforms.

He does have sex with men, but he isn't part of the culture. It's disingenuous to call him gay.
No true homosexual?
Good thing he isn't also not really Scottish.

Microsoft Windows is 2x as popular as other competing solutions (not here obviously)
Did you mean 22x as "popular" as the nearest competitor?
Not sure I would use the word popular, but certainly populous, or something.
Apple missed the opportunity to provide a new anti-theft feature, and make this store setup a demonstration of their
confidence in the new feature.
Why would they need a new one? There is already a perfect one build into all European phones, you report it stolen and it stops working.
Neon is horrible. Copying the bloody awful flat icon crap that (cr)Apple instigated and then Windows 10 slavishly copied.
I think you got the order of events mixed up. It bloody awful style that Microsoft introduced in Windows 8 and everybody hated, and then Google and Apple for God's know why slavishly copied.
And where would you put it? How would you cool it?
In the car, and using the built-in cooler all cars have, because engines also doesn't work over 100C.
Compose+'+e = é

That is like the test where someone claimed they defeated the Turing test by pretending to a retarded foreign boy that didn't speak English.
I guess they also only picked people who had never before typed anything in their life as well.

No traditional jury in this case though. This was an appeals court with a panel of judges.

I have been defending 4K screen against those claiming it doesn't matter, but THIS, this is stupid..
