Even if there was such a thing as good, accurate, impartial journalism it would be utterly wasted on 99% of the population.
Even when a big scandal like Snowden/NSA, the IRS hit list, or Fast and Furious do get newsplay, the average person is merely annoyed at having their up to the minute live coverage of NASCAR or the Kardashians interrupted.
Besides shotgunning a couple of over-generalized links to Google searches (thorough research there!), you might have noticed the part about selfishness, which does not perforce involve mirrors. QED.
The rub is not with the user, but with the records. This sort of thing would make a lovely tool for establishing proximity to a crime scene as part of a contrived case. A perfectly innocent act of common public politeness by a passing stranger involving the actual purp could easily be portrayed as complicity.
Prosecutors and police routinely lie, distort, and intimidate. It's in their job description.
The boys at the Fort Meade KGB (oops, I mean NSA) HQ are throwing a party, while the local pigs are ordering extra sprinkles on their doughnuts as we speak.
Glass is the ultimate (to date) example of why "because we can" technology is a very bad thing.
And yes, even though I don't befriend the kind of narcissist that would use Glass, if one shows up at my home or office they will be asked to leave and never return. No exceptions. None.
Enron (later BP) Solarex pursued what were called Building Integrated PV panels back in the 90's, but abandoned the project (later sold to US Solar I believe).
Solarex was using germane/silane-doped amorphous silicon deposition at the time. TFA doesn't go much into the actual engineering here.
Main concerns, as always in PV, were efficiency and initial cost.
From TFS: "Under pressure from US lobbying, the clause that mass surveillance constitutes a human rights violation was dropped earlier."
No way in hell was the Land of the Free going to vote for a resolution, toothless as it is, that would in any way encumber or inhibit Big Brother and Big Data.
This is, of course, essential to maintain the facade of legality and ethics the United Police States have to maintain as part of the whole scam.
So this medicine show is what they kicked a bunch of little kids out of their rehearsal space for? Well, I guess it is a sort of song and dance routine.
Right, Mozilla, who cares about distributed climate change research tools, browser/internet data security, or any of that other boring scientific stuff?
What we really need to foster and encourage are more vapid web games.

People are idiots.
What makes you think the real mission of the NSA is to track terrorists?
No doubt same as Land Rover, Audi, and Jaguar. Either intermediary spacers, ie plastic/rubber washers, or dielectric pastes/coatings.
Seeing as how rust per se is the oxidation of iron, it's a pretty safe bet that all aluminum is pretty rust-resistant.
Pedantic, yeah. But I'm an engineer.
Same thing with the model changes to the Jeep Wrangler line after the YJ.
All frou-frou and techie-wechie, but no guts.
Comfort, style, and economy are not the primary design goals in a working vehicle.
Unless you're a marketing creep.
We have all this yummy data we gorged on, and we can't digest it all.
Obviously, we need a bigger budget for more contractor analysts and hiring Google to write better analytical tools.
Since the two major choices are really just a toss-up, then voting third party can't spoil much, can it?
The us-vs-them schtick on narrow hot-button pet issues is how they gloss the underlying collusion.
You can vote Demublican, or vote your conscience. That's a pretty clear choice.

Kindly familiarize yourself with the full meaning of the word before you further embarrass yourself. Thank you.

Sounds like a fab crowdsourcing idea.
We've always been at war with Eastasia.
Great. We now have a ringing endorsement of our current intel policy from a KGB man.
Of course, there's no telling how many former KGB and FSB are actually advising Clapper and Alexander.
As V.V.P. is fond of saying, there is no such thing as a former Chekist.
In China you don't get executed for screwing up. You get executed for embarrassing the Party.
Civil Engineers, geologists, and mining specialists encounter the BFR phenomenon on a regular basis.
It's a Big Fucking Rock.

What is new here?
I think we call them quantum states....

Spoken like a real engineer!
Are they certain it's not just a bomb-proof Mogen David warehouse?
The bastards got caught, and the poor little dears are upset..
Fuck 'em.

Cry "Sims!" and let slip the Angry Birds of war!
Do you mean to imply that Robert LaFollette was a Fascist? That's tantamount to calling Dick Cheney a Maoist.
