Batteries. Several large ones already installed in California... and other places. Very cost effective. Importing fossil fuel electricity is not an option... not permitted.
I took the comment "model will support up to 512GB of onboard flash storage" to mean that it would support removable SD type storage. I may have been wrong to ASS u ME that. Knowing Apple, I should have ASS u ME d it would be some crazy proprietary locked down storage.
I can't believe that the iPhone is finally getting a pencil ! And... wait for it... SD cards! Woo Hoooo ! This is 20 year old tech. Do you think it will have Graffiti input?
One key aspect of rehabilitating polluted lakes, rivers and estuaries is knowing whether actions are having a positive effect. This requires long-term environmental monitoring programs, which unfortunately have been scaled back in Florida and many other states due to budget cuts.
If you bother to read TFA (the second one, which may be a bit too much to ask), you'll see that human pollution and climate change are causing this red tide to be much worse than the "natural" events of the past.
Part of the problem is that their idiot governor, Rick Scott (R), deleted funding for control of red tide. He doesn't believe in environmental regulations or climate change so didn't think it was necessary to inconvenience the sugar plantations by putting controls on their pollution.
You seem to fail to understand that "the authorities" have more guns and bigger guns and more people and jails. It's cute that you want to display your bravado but that will only get you targeted and will not end well.
OOOH ! a new shape ! Is this better than their famous rounded corners ? OOOH ! Face recognition ! Something like Facebook and Google have had for years in their photo suites ?
New high price ! Now there is real innovation ! Proving that people are suckers !
It looks like this whole system is a scam to suck money from the inmates. Probably very high charges for pad rental, email, games, etc. Good to see them striking back to free the system.
HA HA HA. You are clearly unaware of how cops work. They get points for arresting someone for a crime. They don't get penalized when they arrest the wrong person. Facial recognition gives them a neat tool to find someone to arrest. They don't care if it's the wrong person. Yes, the cops are crazy, stupid, lazy so they will just pick someone from facial recognition to arrest... case closed!
Not quite sure what the point of your rant is... but I'll try to address some of your confusion. NOx in cities mostly comes from diesel engines and causes significant disease. Don't know why you want a donkey but if that's your choice, more power to you (although please be sure to clean up after your beast). Electric cars are clean, quiet and becoming more affordable. Lots of new jobs for people to build these electric cars. I am really disappointed in you bringing up the old racist cannard about too many people in Africa. People in Africa consume much less than those in the first world and create much less pollution; they are not the problem. I'd advise you to watch the videos of Hans Rosling who will dispel your fears about overpopulation. In short, education (of women) is already taking care of this "problem".
The problem is that fossil fuel use has externalities in CO2, NOx and particulates which cause climate change and damage health. In spite of Hayek's hypothesis, this is not worked into the price. The cost of health and environmental damage is placed on all of society and never works its way back to the price you pay.
Not sure what you are trying to prove. I merely responded that I use DuckDuckGo on ChromeOS and that it's less intrusive into my privacy than Google search. I have no illusions that I could be 100% private and secure.
Yes. It says use DuckDuckGo as your search engine. Also: Chrome OS is already tops at security, but with a few extra tweaks you can ensure the gates are even more secure.
It would be more useful to own and control your data and not just transfer it from one greedy big corp to another (all of which will sell you out to the highest bidder). Something like Tim Berners-Lee's Solid project for a decentralized web (https://github.com/solid/)
From Github: Specifically, Solid is:
A tech stack -- a set of complementary standards and data formats/vocabularies that together provide capabilities that are currently available only through centralized social media services (think Facebook/Twitter/LinkedIn/many others), such as identity, authentication and login, authorization and permission lists, contact management, messaging and notifications, feed aggregation and subscription, comments and discussions, and more. A Specifications document that describes a REST API that extends those existing standards, contains design notes on the individual components used, and is intended as a guide for developers who plan to build servers or applications. A set of servers that implement this specification. A test suite for testing and validating Solid implementations. An ecosystem of social apps, identity providers and helper libraries (such as solid.js) that run on the Solid platform. A community providing documentation, discussion (see the solid gitter channel), tutorials and talks/presentations. Standards Used The Solid platform uses the following standards.
RDF 1.1 (Resource Description Framework) (see also RDF Primer) is heavily used in Solid data models. By default, the preferred RDF serialization format is Turtle. Alternative serialization formats such as JSON-LD and RDFa can also be used.
The WebID 1.0 (Web Identity and Discovery) standard is used to provide universal usernames/IDs for Solid apps, and to refer to unique Agents (people, organizations, devices). See also the WebID interoperability notes for an overview of how WebID relates to other authentication and identity protocols.
WebIDs, when accessed, yield WebID Profile documents (in Turtle and other RDF formats).
The FOAF vocabulary is used both in WebID profiles, and in specifying Access Control lists (see below).
Authentication (for logins, page personalization and more) is done via the WebID-TLS protocol. WebID-TLS extends WebID Profiles to include references to the subject's public keys in the form of X.509 Certificates, using Cert Ontology 1.0 vocabulary. The authentication sequence is done using the HTTP over TLS protocol. Unlike normal HTTPS use cases, WebID-TLS is done without referring to Certificate Authority hierarchies, and instead encourages host server-signed (or self-signed) certificates.
In Solid, certificate creation is typically done in the browser using the HTML5 keygen element, to provide a one-step creation and certificate publication user experience.
Authorization and access lists are done using Basic Access Control ontology (see also the WebAccessControl wiki page for more details).
Solid uses the Linked Data Platform (LDP) standard (see also LDP Primer) extensively, as a standard way of reading and writing generic Linked Data resources.

The best way to keep prying eyes away from your stuff it to use Chromebook and wipe it before landing in the USSA.

That's not innovation. That's copying and refining. Apple hasn't innovated in years.
OOOH ! a new shape ! Is this better than their famous rounded corners ?

The Republicans are very happy with the situation now. Easy for Vlad to help out keeping them in power. Why risk upsetting the gravy train?

No, stuff like plastic bottles of soda pop and "trinkets".

None.
My only claim was that it works on the Chromebook.
I'm retired so I have lots of time.

Yes.

It's ChromeOS.
What about the OS?

The point is to use a search engine that doesn't track me.
