No doubt they would like to be a bigger player in the phone market, but a good company looks for next year's opportunity, not last year's. They're in many things besides CPUs.
Presumably with the $50 incentive a Geek Squad informant would be searching for things that have nothing to do with the reason they were given access to the computer. The issue is stumbling across porn versus being paid a bounty for finding it.
How is this different from any other information provided by a paid informant? Or are they arguing that all paid informants are illegal? What about unpaid?
The United States spent 20 percent of the federal budget on defense.. more than it spent on Medicare.
Note how they are comparing the entire "federal budget on defense" to a fraction of the budget spend on healthcare (Medicare); conveniently ignoring Medicaid and the huge tax collected in the form of Obamacare premiums.
Have you noticed how many members of Trump's administration have already pled guilty and are now working with Mueller?
Please list them. Not former campaign staffers who where fired by Trump for unethical dealings, but people who are or were members of the administration.
Don't you have any Comp. Sci. professors there? There job is to teach students how to think like programmers (as opposed the "learning to code" that gets so much press coverage).
First, none of these people ever worked in the White House or as part of the Executive Branch. They were campaign staff who were fired by Trump when he lost confidence in them.
Second, without the collusion angle there is no reason for a special prosecutor.
They counted what caused people who had jobs to stop working. It shouldn't surprise anyone that over an almost twenty year time period some jobs disappeared.
But what I don't see is why more new jobs weren't created and filled by the people who left the workforce.
True innovation is what's lacking, and perhaps phone manufacturers have been resting on their laurels
Not so much resting on laurels as the combination of lack of vision and fear of failure. Steve Jobs knew how to incorporate ideas into innovative new products and wasn't afraid to take risk.

And a place for muscular guys to take their clothes off. Maybe the "women-only club and workspace" would make an exception for that.
Humanity is good and evil
Good and evil are defined by the culture in which you live today. We can't portray them in any meaningful way.
You don't count motherboard chipsets, network interface controllers and integrated circuits, flash memory, graphics chips, embedded processors and other devices related to communications and computing. as "much"?

As for the solar panels ... that's what homeowner's insurance is for.
Don't confuse "insured" or "subsidized" with lower cost. The cost is the same, the only difference is who pays the bill.
Pretty much all the power has been restored. No big deal.
Except for anyone who had solar panels blown off their roof, they have a far more expensive problem.

You do realize that the worse mass murder in a US school did not involve a gun, don't you?
This is slashdot. Units should be furlongs/fortnight.
Science Fiction, emphasis on Fiction. As in fake, not real.
I'm pretty sure computers have been used in space for a while now. This is just nothing more than a bit of paid advertising from IBM.
minus 55 C, stupid /.
Not to mention the temperature on Mars averages around 55 C.
The FBI *did* include information about the political motivation of the Steele dossier
"was likely looking for information" is not the same as "was hired by Candidate #2"

Vox was founded by Markos (Kos) Moulitsas, it has no credibility as a news outlet. It lives down in the mud with Huff Post and USA Today.

Third, where did "obama is a muslim" come from?
Yea. If they were smart they would have run their own email server out of their bathroom.
Their mistake wasn't using Word/PDF, their mistake was that they left an electronic paper trail by exchanging emails of their fraud.
Pretty much the same thing that brought down Hillary.
They counted what caused people who had jobs to stop working. It shouldn't surprise anyone that over an almost twenty year time period some jobs disappeared.

It doesn't matter if it's actually better. The perception is that if you pay more you should go to the front of the line.
