Humm... The world is flat and I can constructed a computer model to prove it. All I need us a dual socket threadripper 2990WX with 256 GB RAM, 32 TB of SSD, and Quad RTX 2080Ti's.
Antarctic doesn't suffer dumbasses lightly. Odds are he will wonder off in to the wilderness down there and we won't hear from him again till the spring thaw. A little math shows that should be a 100 million years, give or take.
I tell you there is money to be made off these fools. If we can just get pictures of the turtle then we are gold.
The telecom industries were paid handsomely in the 90s to roll out a next generation fiber optic backbone infrastructure.
They laid a very small amount of fiber, and pocketed the rest of the money, then shrugged when asked where the money went.
No, they laid the fiber. They laid ass loads of fiber in rural area. I used to live in bumfuck Alabama, the only internet I could get was satellite or dialup. AT&T came through dug up the whole county, and laid shitloads of fiber. They even ran it down the side of an abandon logging road. There was a fiber trunk 100 feet from my house.
The agreement was they would lay the fiber but there where no provisions to actually use it. They laid the fiber, like they where supposed, they just never set up the fucking infrastructure to make it useful.
If there was ever a cautionary tale of a dystopian, post-apocalyptic future, it'd be one where Trump gets another 4 years to continue destroying the United States and torturing human beings.
According to a theory of physics there is a universe out there where Trump is doing exactly that. It is a good thing we don't live in that universe. I imagine in that universe Trump wouldn't be getting another 4 years, but currently in our universe Trump has 2020 in the bag.
This is the exact argument that I've been making since I first heard about self driving cars. The technology isn't there. Using markers on the roads will not work because they are not constant. GPS isn't accurate enough and computer maps are not 100% accurate.
With the current technology of today we could make self driving cars but it would require billions to overhaul the existing infrastructure to make this happen.
One of the reasons I believe it is safe to call bullshit on this particular conspiracy theory. So what if they can tell that I walked past a scanner and have $200 in cash in my pocket. Unless.... they take my picture at the time, compare it to a database with facial recognition software, and then log it. I should run that by the tin foil hat group for shits and giggles.
To the mod that labeled this as flamebait. There is nothing flamebait about this post. It is a simple statement of a story that I saw decades ago. In the figure you need to make sure you mod correctly for Slashdot moding system to work.
. Plus cash is good, cash is private, we should all be doing our part to keep the cash economy humming along
I remember 20 years ago there was a tv special on about how the government is tracking you with your cash. There was a little metal strip in each bill, and the government was using that to tell how much you had on you when you went between those inventory theft detectors in stores.
Yes, they are. It would be nice if what you wanted existed. But right now if you want to watch these channels you have to deal with the bundling. This is just the cheapest way I've found to get it.
Just plan old Youtube has shit load of really good things on it. I like to watch documentaries and it's amazing the number of documentaries that are out there on Youtube.
No, actually I am getting it. What you want doesn't exist not yet. I'm just offering you a cheaper alternative in case you do want it.
The writing on the wall, cable companies see it, and these streaming services see it. They just hope you don't see it. Their business model is coming to an end. With devices like Ruko and Fire tv, channels are becoming a app on the device. It's just a matter of time.
The question on the table right now is how much do you want to pay for a tv service, if you want it, till it does happen?
It took me exactly 30 seconds to find that article. An I know these fucking records exist. The damn nazi's that kept them told the alias what they are. So go fuck yourself.
People like to put holocaust deniers on the same level as the flat earthers. Laugh at them for their stupidity and move on. They shouldn't. The flat earthers are just harmless in their brand of stupidity. These holocaust deniers would have us believe that the systematic round up, record, and murder of 12 million human beings never happened.
Take a look at Philo then. It's only $20 a month for around 50 channels, and $16 a month for 45 channels. The have all the channels most geeks would like, science, history, and BBC. What they don't have is endless sports and news channels. You get BBC World News and Cheddar.
Well it's not going to cost me $50 a month. What is the point of having these services like youtube and hulu tv if they cost you just as much as a cable tv subscription if not more. You have to add in the cost of the internet to get your total cost. I think a lot of "cord cutters" over look this and that is what they want you to do.
You know why the Nazi's of WWII are regarded more evil than Stalin or Mao? The Nazi's where better record keepers. It's easy to gloss over 20 to 80 million that Stalin had murdered, and the 80 to 200 million that Chairman Mao red revolution slaughtered, when it's all anonymous numbers on a ledger.
But the Nazi's, now they new how to keep records over who they butchered. They had names, addresses, and a count of every item the took from jews before they gassed them.
Yes, the nazi's where just better record keepers, but communist stand way taller on a mountain of anonymous dead.
No they don't. In jail you have no privacy what so ever. You poop in full view of guards and inmates. They can strip search you anytime they want too. An go through any items you have and even take them away for any reason what so ever.
These are not model children, and nether are their parents, that are being tagged and monitored. These are gang bangers and other problem people. I think we should dispense with the turning it on at random times, and just leave the recording on 24 hours a day. How many hours of audio can a 10 TB HD hold again?
Chicago is run by democrats. This isn't a republican issue.
I'm not sure that I see a problem with this. I would also argue that it isn't with out their consent. You have a choice. Stay in jail till your trial, or wear this monitor and mostly get on with your life.
If you are subscribing to all these services are you really cutting the cord? Seems to me all you are doing is sending your money to just different services. I subscribe to 3 services, Coursitystream, Netflix, and Hulu. I'm also watching more Youtube channels now. If it isn't on those services I probably will not watch it.
My daughter added a philo subscription. Adding all that up it is still cheaper than what I was paying for with cable.
Same with DFS on this end. I tried it on Windows 2008R2,10 years ago. I remember the link being unreliable and slow. I imagine it has come a long way since then.

I feel your pain but if they do this shit, then it will be cold day in hell before I touch another one.

Wow. That is probably one of the most complex and ignorant things I've ever read on the subject.

Except there is literally not a single written record of the Holocaust. I'm completely serious. Go ahead, look for one.
Yes there are, you fucking dumbass.

Yes, I'm feeding the troll.

It also has a pretty good cloud based DVR.

It is cloud based dvr, but yes you can skip commercials on on the dvr.

Yes, in a court of law they are innocent until proven guilty. Until then, they are not considered anything but guilty.
I'm sure there was a "whoosh" in there. I thought to myself after I posted. "You know, I believe I completely missed the point there."
No they don't. In jail you have no privacy what so ever. You poop in full view of guards and inmates. They can strip search you anytime they want too. An go through any items you have and even take them away for any reason what so ever.

This is fine. I suppose that allot of ones point of view depends on how much experience one has with the operating system.
