  10. Cost to 'manufacture' (i.e. assemble the outside sourced components): $5. So, the $650 phone might skyrocket in price to $655.

    Facts are subject to interpretation.

    Example: politician A accuses politician B of voting for higher taxes.

    Questions:
    1. Which bill is he talking about?
    2. Which version of a specific bill is he talking about?
    3. Which vote on the specific bill is he talking about?
    4. Is he talking about an actual vote on a bill, or some procedural nonsense (i.e. voting to call for a vote)?

    I can't see an automated script handling this kind of nuance very well.

  18. No, they mean super-duper polite and friendly terminators who are 100% under control and will never kill humans, except when they're ordered to kill humans.

    People old enough to remember when AOL was in BIG BIG TROUBLE in the 90's because they couldn't figure out how to install the FBI's carnivore mail server plug-in already knew the government was already actively scanning all of our telecommunications.

    Everyone ignores the fact that the FBI has been doing this for the last 20 years, but makes a big commotion about the NSA doing it. Yawn.

    Do you not know how email works? If I know your email address, I know your mail server.

    All I have to do is--
    c:>nslookup
    default server: google-public-dns-a.google.com
    address: 8.8.8.8
    >set q=mx
    >target-domain.com
    default server: google-public-dns-a.google.com
    address: 8.8.8.8

    Non-authoritative answer:
    target-domain.com MX preference = 0 mail exchanger = mailserver.target-domain.com


    Of course, you don't HAVE to have a DNS MX record pointing to your mail server. You only need one of those if you want people to be able to SEND YOU MAIL.
