Google / FB just requires a new HTML header that explicitly gives them permission. If the header isnâ(TM)t there, Google just displays the link and no additional information. As soon as the media outlets watch their views plummet they will either add the header or demand the law be changed immediately.
I never claimed to have invented it. Also allowing a user to hit #4 (or similar) to charge the caller $1.00 is very different than the mandatory per minute rate of traditional long distance toll calls from back in the technological Stone Age. Perhaps you are too young to remember the particulars.
On some levels I agree. But if someone is making legitimate calls, if they get hit $1 here or there it won't amount to anything. But if someone is making 10's of thousands of calls, it will add up to a lot. Besides, once the word gets out that if a telemarketer Calls your number they'll get dinged $1, all the telemarketers will stop.
They should turn it into a source or revenue for the phone companies. When a phone call completes, have an option for the recipient to charge them $1.00. The phone company keeps half.
While I don't agree with the anti-vaccine crowd, the last thing we need is for Amazon / Google / Facebook to become the arbiters as to what we think, see, and hear. Having everyone think in lockstep is far more dangerous than the anti-vaccine movement imho.
Paradise CA hired a fire expert back in the 1980s. He went on a tour of the townsite along with a reporter from the local paper. After seeing the amount of undergrowth surrounding the town, the fire expert concluded the town was a death trap. He then quickly resigned so that when the town burned down, he wouldn't be held responsible.
A few years ago, someone decided to use the country of Canada to stop the glaciers from moving southward. It was an environmental disaster with wide spread deforestation and loss of topsoil and native wildlife. Even with an entire country as a buffer, the glaciers did what they would do anyway and headed south. What's more, it was a complete failure. Even though the ice accumulated and became several miles thick in places, Global Warming eventually prevailed and most all the glaciers melted leaving immense amounts of trash in their wake. What's more, the ice was a hazard as it created ice dams and Lake Missoula which broke and released as much as 10 cubic kilometers of water -- per hour creating additional environmental destruction and killing everyone downstream including wildlife. Perhaps it isn't such a great idea after all.
I have to wonder if they are also going to sequence the mitochondrial DNA. Mitochondrial DNA is often forgotten in these discussions but if you ever want to really clone something, is vitally important.
Since everyone is offended nowadays, I'm offended by their statement that it is a peculiar institution in the USA. Someone needs to go back and read their history. The Romans practiced slavery. The Greeks practiced slavery. The Africans did too even before they sold their slaves to the Europeans. The European institution of serfdom wasn't too far off. The Hitites practiced slavery, the Babylonians too. The Jews were slaves in Egypt. Pretty much all of history had slaves. To single it out as a singularly American institution is a bit nieve.
Yes, but my point is they could just as easily say that their own services (which could include Netflix or a competitor) run twice as fast as Internet services. They could make a deal with Google to provide priority service for Google via their own private network that would be faster than Google via their Internet gateway.
In the early days, in addition to the "Internet" you had a whole host of private networks. AOL, Compuserve, Prodigy, among others including a whole host of BBSs. These were not part of the Internet. They eventually provided Internet gateways but doing that doesn't mean that they automatically gave up their autonomy and were now part of the Internet itself. So, I what's to stop Comcast, VeriZon, AT&T from simply saying that they are not providing an internet service but they are allowing connection to their private network as well as an Internet gateway and as part of that, they'll prioritize traffic on their network as they see fit (and process "Internet" traffic on a neutral basis.) ?
One form of microplastics is micro fibers. Microfibers wear off of synthetic clothing every time you take a step, walk down the street, go to the park, go swimming, or do virtually anything else. They banned microbeads because they were getting swallowed by fish, getting into the soils, and getting into the food supply. But the amount of microbeads that were released into the environment is dwarfed by the amount of microfibers released into the environment each and every day. Patagonia of course pretends like they care about our environment but virtually all their products are made from synthetic materials. Their customers hike to some of the most remote places on the earth with some of the worldâ(TM)s most fragile environments littering microfibers all along the way.
Perhaps they could start putting a key in those things. Cars have had them since the 1920s. Might be a good place to start. Maybe in another 80 years they could put RFIDs in the key fobs.
There are so many people pissed at Trump that it is hard to believe that if they had found something, someone wouldn't have found a way to leak it. People are using leaks as weapons and even leaking false information for the same end. The fact that there aren't any detailed leaks is telling....
Not necessarily. Flynn's confession was coerced. He'd spent over a million on legal and lost his house and they were saying they were going after his son next. The judge who presided is currently reviewing everything which is almost unheard of after a plea. I'm sure you are a good guy and all but I'm equally sure that if a Special Council looked through your life close enough they could put you away. I had this same conversation with a friend who was high up in the Bill Clinton campaign. He didn't believe me. I rattled off a bunch of laws that I suspected he'd broken and let him know that all those could send him to prison. He said: "Oh, I didn't know doing those was illegal". I said: Yep, that's my point. There is a lot of stuff that we do every day that is covered by felony level laws that we don't know about or simply ignore because we don't think they apply. All it takes is for a prosecutor to decide to follow up. I'm still waiting for someone to look at Huma Abbedin's forwarding classified emails to her husband to print. They are ignoring it. But I know that if any of my friends that I grew up with in Los Alamos did that with our nuclear secrets there would be hell to pay.
Their Mueller investigation must truly be going poorly. It's been over a year and they haven't found anything that says Trump colluded. They've found wrong doing by various underlings but, considering the average person commits three felonies a day.... Now the Democrats want their own investigation where they themselves can run it and leak with impunity.
You are right on point. A friend of mine designs reactors for a company that figured out a way to make carbon nanotubes en mass. (Many tons / month). Apparently if you mix them into iron (in a vacuum), you get a steel with some pretty magical properties. If someone had looked at this steel only 10 years ago, theyâ(TM)d really have been confused. Even today, I bet most metallurgists probably donâ(TM)t know about it let alone how to make it. Iâ(TM)d bet there are plenty of metals that are similar Perhaps the elements are identifiable but how it is made would be a totally different matter. Or just think what someone would think of a modern CPU given to a physicist from the Manhatten project. Itâ(TM)s just a piece of silicone after all.
Odds are, at least with the legs companies, if they suffered a data breach, theyâ(TM)ve cracked down on security and fixed as many of the problems as they can find. The real danger is with the companies who havenâ(TM)t suffered a data breach (that they know of) since their problems havenâ(TM)t been addressed.
Works for Hillary. That is how she and her associates disposed of their government property phones while under subpoena. As Secretary of State, she surely used the most advanced security techniques available.

It is interesting that you donâ(TM)t see a proposal to split the difference by adjusting our clocks by only 1/2 hour and leaving them there.
Works really good ... until it doesn't.

Yes, unless you hang out in a tank of fluorine, sooner or later oxidizing will get us all.
Thanks. I've been trying to figure out how to fix it.
Exactly. Just imagine if the silicone enhancements were applied to steel. It's something right out of Wonder Woman.
