Where are you that you are still in a pension plan which you don't control? I'd think most/. users have 401(k) which they have at least a bit of control over. Too bad that doesn't stop a common mistake, though - someone betting everything on the company they work for, salary, stock/options, and 401(k) investments.
Note that Stingrays aren't just radio receivers. They mimic cell towers, and are also transmitters. They transmit on spectrum which belongs to the cell carriers, and they do so without a license or warrant. That's illegal.
Also, cell frequencies aren't "readily accessible to the general public" - Congress has passed laws which specifically prohibit the public from accessing those frequencies and prohibits the manufacture of general purpose radios (scanners) which can receive them.
No seals on any Macs, at least up until the candy colored ones, either. You needed a hard to find long T-15 screwdriver (and a special case separator, if you didn't want to do cosmetic damage) to open them, though. But the RAM was soldered in, so it wouldn't have been a Mac that needed its RAM reseated.
No, the Apple 1 came prebuilt. You needed to connect the support infrastructure - power supply, keyboard, display, but the motherboard was already built.
The Apple ][ was initially available the same way, as a bare prebuilt motherboard, in addition to completely packages (except monitor).
BS. There were no "don't break this seals..." in the Apple ][. It was wide open. It had to be, you had to remove the cover to install expansion cards or more RAM.
The N pole is only the simple answer. Fact is, there are infinite points which meet the condition. Anywhere on the latitude 1+1/pi (add just a tiny bit more because of spherical geometry) miles north of the S pole also works. When you walk a mile W, you're making a full circle back to your original longitude. There are similar others, where you circle twice, etc.
Using the AC power outlet conveniently located next to the pump? Or that the pumps provide PoE? And, you'll need dongles which retain their configuration and an AP which is configured with a different SSID for each. After that, you still need the switch/NAT stuff which makes it even possible.
Better to simply buy 8 $100 used laptops off eBay, and use one for each pump.
Since he's pushing software, and it takes 20-30 minutes each, it's safe to assume that there's a continuous flow happening during much of that time, like tftp'ing new code. He wants to do that in parallel to save time, not to save the 30 seconds it takes to move from one pump to the next.
A Smart car weighs about 1800 lbs. A Dodge Durango weighs about 6500 lbs. The accepted rule-of-thumb is that road damage increases as the 4th power of weight. So, the Durango causes ~170 times more road wear. Even if you don't accept that full number, it's still a very significant difference.
Weight-based fees for passenger vehicles really, really make a lot of sense.
"Weight-based fees also unfairly nail electric vehicle drivers, because the batteries tend to weigh more than an equivalent internal-combustion drivetrain."
The more a vehicle weighs, the more road wear it causes. How does the road not wear as much because the weight is from batteries? Do you think a semi-trailer loaded with car parts causes more wear than one of the same weight loaded with batteries?
So, he created a simulator by adding a second subnet to his DD-WRT router. Sorry, but it's bullshit, or he or you could easily point to these publicly available documents which perfectly describe the security hole. No need to build a simulator or sniff a real network, because it's already documented.
"all Roberts is NOT claiming is that he didn't cause an actual plane to move in any direction, send commands to the plane etc."
Let's see. Parsing double negative, so "Roberts claiming he did cause an actual plane to move" is allowed to be true.
Well, unless you're testing sensors, where interference from a large object full of electronics, vibrations and heat generating devices might be a problem or you need a different orbit or you don't want your military stuff exposed to international crews.
By your logic, why have a Hubble telescope, or a Chandra X-Ray Observatory, when they could simply be attached to the ISS?

If Uber's valuation were based on their reputation, it would be negative.

"Just another tabloid rag."
Gotta compete with the NYT.
Hulk smash!
Rumor is that timothy is a Turing test which has failed to match human intelligence.
Each pixel is either a color or black, which is the absence of light (color). That wasn't so hard to figure out, was it?
That would be timothy, the editor from hell.
"open sores software"
There's an anti-virus which can treat that.

Franklin blatantly copied Apple's monitor ROM and DOS.

No. There was a minor bug introduced at 3.14. The patch to fix that, completely different issue, went into 4.0 and caused this corruption issue.
Who needs graphics and sound? I've got a 20 mA current loop interface for an ASR-33 (which does make lots of sound, now that I think about it).
Get off my lawn.

Well then, I'll just assume you're wrong.
