So you're gonna tell me that the Red Shirts are willing to brave venturing down onto a mysterious planet with little to no protection, get horrendously murdered, and expect the traumatized survivors to just accept a pat on the back and some words thanking them for doing their part for the Federation?
Whoever it was that put out a request for volunteers for a one-way mission to Mars (SpaceX? NASA?) got swamped with responses. So I'd say yes.
He was exactly unelected. He was appointed. Representatives, Senators, and the President are elected. FCC commissioners are not. "Unelected" doesn't mean put in office through an anti-democratic process, it just means he was not decided as the result of an election.
The question was how to measure "where a chain has concentrated its business" not "popularity". Popularity could be one way to look at that question, but it is not the only one.
No way you are getting enough power from a stack of AA batteries you'd be wiling to carry around that rivals the internal battery in an I-phone.
Energizer makes 3000 mAh AA batteries. That's in the same range as a cell phone battery. So the power is there, but voltage is another matter. These are 1.5 volt like any other AA battery so you'd probably need 2-4 to supply enough voltage, which would, as jfdavis indicated, last for days.
Just tonight I talked to people from a company developing a OTP system primarily for use by the US military. So I think it's more feasible than it might seem (or possibly they're barking up the wrong tree, but they seemed like smart people).
I suspect there are at least two other reasons more important than private citizens with guns deterring anyone from invading the US, those being the US military and economic incentives.
I don't buy game stuff, but I believe Overwatch sells loot boxes directly. Battlefront 2 I think does the currency thing if I remember right. Rocket League sells keys that are required to open loot boxes, so kind of in between.
It's been all over coverage of the issue. That is the explanation Apple gave for why they did this. Without the patch, if the system requested more voltage than the battery could deliver, it would just shut off. By throttling the processor, the peak voltage demand is decreased and the device can keep running.
Questions out of curiosity not an attack. Do you write a lot of checks for stuff like utilities? Or do you do direct withdrawal? I could deal with cash + prepaid credit card (though I don't feel the need), but man writing checks sucks. Have you looked into paying by smartphone? I only know about Android but I think iOS works the same way. Only Google knows your credit card information, the merchant never sees it. If I understand right it isn't even stored on the phone. I haven't heard about any breaches of those systems, but then I haven't looked.

Once the robots have human level intelligence, they will have human motives
How do you know? We have a sample size of one population with human level intelligence, so it seems presumptuous to extrapolate from that.
Maintenance, building, healthcare, etc.
Looking long term, maintenance and construction could be completely automated, and big segments of the health care industry as well.

I'd say revenue by ZIP code would be another extremely meaningful way.

Stores in Vancouver BC and Portland OR are going to LOVE this thing if it passes.
One-time pads are not really feasible.

That is nutso...
After the Redneck Trials in Portland last year, when criminals were set free on the dubious grounds that being white proved their innocence
What are you referring to here?
In the US, the state governments (every state as far as I know) requires insurance to operate a motor vehicle on public roads.
Who said anything about hickville? Have you ever heard of Denver?
You can't use a bluetooth mouse with an iPad?? Surely that is not right...

If cryptocurrency flops, used graphics cards will be a dime a dozen.
I guess it's semantics, but this is what I'm referring to: http://www.androidpolice.com/2...
Sounds like spyware to me.
Oh I see... I'm not sure what he meant by that. Sounds like he misunderstood something. Sorry to add to the confusion.

Why would OnePlus confirm there is a problem if it was just random coincidence?
What I would like is that either 2tier security, where they send me an SMS with a code to congirm
2FA is good, but not via SMS; that isn't secure.

Didn't they also distribute phones with spyware preinstalled though?

Did you really find it difficult to understand the headline, or were you exaggerating for effect? Just curious.
