Nope. It's completely about access. People don't want to have to subscribe to 10 different services, and go searching through 10 different services because of some contractual agreement that nobody outside of the lawyers and content producers know about.
So they'll go to the one place they know they'll find it, with the benefit of having extremely low cost: The Pirate Bay.
I would have thought that the media industry would have learned this lesson by now.
RPGs are great for taking out cars and jeeps and low-flying aircraft, but they're only good for telling a tank exactly what bearing you're on so they can put a couple hundred machinegun rounds in your general direction.
For dealing with tanks, you need anti-tank weapons where the ordinance works like a shaped charge to punch a hole in the metal and direct as much damage as possible at as small a surface area as possible. There is a reason why the arms manufacturers make both.
You wouldn't even have to be that far from ground zero, depending on the size of the bomb and the structure you are attempting to protect (for various values of that far - 2.5 km from ground zero would do it for a good 'ol just-fission bomb). The blast wave diminishes with the inverse-cube law, where the thermal pulse diminishes on the inverse-square - with large hydrogen bombs the thermal pulse will out-range the overpressure effects of the detonation by quite some distance.
Some kind of material that can survive the infrared and UV energy being pumped out by the expanding fireball would go a long way to limiting the damage from a nuclear blast, especially since a lot of the effect caused by these weapons are the subsequent structure fires, choking smoke, and generally removing oxygen from the area due to all the shit that is on fire.
Of course whatever this crap is / was does nothing to help with the radioactive fallout and the long-term effects of that, and probably has it's own health hazards since it was discovered while burning 1970s household waste in his back yard which is a super-clean manufacturing process, but whatever.
On one hand we have The Standard Model. On the other, a dead hairdresser's undocumented process discovered while burning trash in his back yard in the 1970s, without samples.
Whatever he came up with is roughly derivative of melted and slightly charred packaging and household waste from the UK in the 1970s. It's probably quite the cocktail of asbestos, brominated plastics, lead, and velvet smoking jackets. The formula is probably lost to the world, as we don't generate the same kind of toxic shit headed to the landfill anymore, and we have HOAs to prevent people from "improving" the neighborhood aroma by dumping household waste in a hole in the in the back yard, dousing it with diesel fuel, lighting it on fire, and being surprised by the God-knows-what carcinogenic goop left in the bottom of the hole that just! won't! burn!
LOL nobody uses H.265 in wide distribution because nobody can afford to with the multiple patent pool licensing. It's dead, and will never generate the revenues needed to fund development of any further standard. MPEG killed the golden goose and sent their members to build their own org to cut them out, and AV1 is the result.
The codec will get faster with optimization and forthcoming hardware en/decode acceleration, just like all codecs do.
But you can most certainly plunk down cash for some future mystery box with unknown shape or style, filled with hardware that nobody is able to describe, meeting a spec that doesn't exist! But it's open, somehow!
The problem with fanboyism is that arguments are made that can't stand up to actual objective testing data and metrics.
It's very possible that the AMD CPU design isn't well suited and optimized for the workflow you are throwing at it, where the Intel CPU does better. And you know what? That's perfectly fine. Use the tool that works best for you and your organization.
At least you did the due diligence of actually testing and gathering data - many orgs never bother and just stick with "nobody ever got fired for buying X" where X has been many large company names over the years.
You do understand they don't need to buy a robot for every car they make, right? They don't wear out after each car passes by.
Revenue rises at a steeper slope than operational costs, and at some point they cross over - that would be what is referred to as "cash-flow positive". The question is when that crossover happens.
This has been pointed out to you many times, but you don't ever listen. Either you're just spreading FUD because reasons, or you're completely daft and refuse to learn anything.
Do you really think he'll be fined $5B? That's what it would take to "remove" him from Tesla - he owns 10%. Well, less than $5B now that the stock has taken a 10% hit in after-hours...
Yeah, they'll definitely levy a fine that is orders of magnitude higher than any fine ever slapped onto an individual for a stupid ass tweet. Or you're delusional.
Reference: Wells Fargo was fined $2.1B for actual documented fraud with the explicit intention of originating mortgages with false information.
Nah, the Kavanaugh thing is completely about filibustering, even though they can't actually filibuster. They want to throw as much FUD as they can on it, and pray that the public raises a stink and wants the FBI involved, so it can draw out until after the November election, and hopefully into the next Congress that hopefully has a different political division. They figure that with some luck, they take back the Senate in November and delay this thing into January, which means that seat on the bench stays empty until 2020, when they hope they can obstruct their way to a Democrat president too.
I guess the flaw in their strategy is that they aren't nearly as good at obstruction as the Republicans of the last decade are, and they shot themselves in their own ass cheek when they used the so-called nuclear option to limit filibuster. Kinda screwed themselves on that one.
The ignorance defense wasn't worth shit, as the documents found had the classification markings still on them. There's no chance you become Secretary of State without being able to recognize a classification marking, and receive training on the proper care and handling of documents with those markings.
Several billion smartphones out there taking OTA updates all the time that hold valuable personal info and banking info, and not a single case of hijacking the OTA update process to compromise the device.
It might be plausible that there are ways to implement this securely.
Unfortunately, my experience with satellite radio is that it sounded like bitcrushed garbage. I had a free year with my car purchase, and I never used it after the first couple weeks because it was terrible.
At least streaming isn't beholden to limited total bandwidth from a satellite, divided up among an ever-increasing channel count in a race to have more available content than other services.
I think you will find that nobody would argue that point. It doesn't diminish what he was able to accomplish though. The question is: was he able to accomplish so much because he was a dick, or in spite of his dickishness?
Even for a younger person, in the case of something like a heart attack, a few minutes can mean the difference between survival and getting fitted for a toe tag.
If you hit the ground and hold in the emergency call button conveniently on your wrist (which is far more likely than fumbling through your pocket trying to get a phone out, etc.) you may gain enough time to at least increase the odds. Not saying it will go any better for someone, but it's at least plausible.
I keep seeing people saying this, and yet I charge my Apple Watch series 3 (non-LTE) every 3rd day or so, and yes I wear it at night for sleep metrics. Most of the time I just pop it on the charger when I'm shaving / showering, and then put it back on and it's good to go.
How are people getting this shitty of battery life? Are they getting constant notifications on it? That would just be aggravating if they are.

more than that, there's actual services out there that the whole point is a bot impersonating a person. For example: https://jollyrogertelephone.co...
This service is essentially illegal in California now, unless I'm mistaken.

You are close; it should be:
On one hand we have The Standard Model.
On the other, a dead hairdresser's undocumented process discovered while burning trash in his back yard in the 1970s , without samples.
Whatever he came up with is roughly derivative of melted and slightly charred packaging and household waste from the UK in the 1970s.

Nice FUD though.

He'll have to get a pretty bad swing of bad luck combined with his current horrific policy of formenting trade war in order to pass Herbert Hoover.
I'll bet there is a lot of people that were bitching about GWB that are nostalgic for the old days now though...

You responded to his question about modern processors with shit that is almost 20 years old. That is really not useful.
The Tesla brand, assets, and technology are worth buying by someone if the price goes low enough.
You do understand they don't need to buy a robot for every car they make, right? They don't wear out after each car passes by.

You may want to recalibrate.
Yeah, that was priced in the day after it happened. Nobody cares anymore.

Part of that delegation would be to find executives that actually hang around a while. That seems to be a problem.
The SEC probably sees #3 as leverage to settle quickly. The longer this goes on, the more damage it does.

This is completely a double standard.
Unless they are an assassin or a particularly psychotic anarchist, being able to crash random cars is of no value.
Thousands, if not millions of bank accounts, is worth exactly the balance of the accounts to the hacker.
Your argument makes no sense.
That has never been the case with any automobile ever manufactured.
See: brakes, transmission, driveline / axles, tires / wheels, steering, suspension, charging system, cooling system, headlights, etc.
Several billion smartphones out there taking OTA updates all the time that hold valuable personal info and banking info, and not a single case of hijacking the OTA update process to compromise the device.
