Didn't Trump just sign an E.O. to fix this problem, by no longer requiring companies to even bother with trying to appear to pay women similarly to men, or to report that they have been sexually harassing the women.
When exactly did Canonical go "mainstream"? As in, even today, you ask pretty much anybody not actively developing software who and/or what "Canonical" is in relation to computing, you will get "Never heard of it".
Yes, and the ONLY reason this "idea" spread at all, is because they use a very complicated legal setup so cities, which regulate cab companies, have a difficult time dragging them into court for violating their laws and regulations.
I think the GP was going for more of a wish for the gov't to grant an unlimited number of taxi cab licenses, so there could more cabs. Of course, the reason why there is a limited number of licenses is because having no limit results in none of the drivers being able to get enough rides to even remotely get by. Kind of like if you try to be an Uber driver full-time.
We "learned" this a long time ago. Evidently we need to "learn" it again...
Yeah, at least the summary appears to be completely vapid. Like it is somehow unpossible for these computers to have been hooked up to a local server to track when they are worn out or are failing. Nope, the data has to be sent to the cloud for the magic to happen.
Yes, because Apple has historically been run by complete morons. Apple is chock full of 1) really smart people and 2) lawyers with IP experience. They know exactly what it means to make their own GPU and the risks of being sued by Imagination and/or pretty much every other GPU manufacturer [everybody will go for jumping on the "I want a cut of Apple's revenue cuz of my wonderous GPU IP" bandwagon]...
It's not a leak. It sounds like something they are required to disclose, as it materially affects the company's value (hence, the immediate dumping of stock).
well, personally, I think it MIGHT be a bit better idea than having them the other way, as, while it is easier on the muscles to strap the jets to your arms, and then just have the jets pull your arms (and hopefully the rest of you) around, you also wind up with the hot exhaust gases flowing down your arms right into your face. And if one or more of the jets injests something and decides to puke it's guts out the back at high speed, someone then needs to have turbine bits pulled out of their face...assuming you can still see well enough to perform some kind of reasonable landing.
I'm pretty sure, if this were a real "thing", you would really want some kind of mechanical exoskeleton to control the direction the jets are facing, including when there may be no human input (if say, the occupant becomes incapable of controlling it for some reason). Hopefully they will remember to program it so it doesn't bend your joints in ways they aren't naturally designed to...
or you can just overload/jam the wifi network, or have a router that broadcasts with a more powerful signal, or cut the cable/telephone lines going into the building...
Using Wireless devices for home security is...stupid. You at least have to run a wire to avoid the most basic attack, loss of a network connection.
I think I heard someone throwing what sounded like their keyboard at a wall, and then started yelling at their computer. Anyway, turned up the volume on the radio to drown out the basement-dweller and went back to stupping CaptainDorks mom.
Why do they have to? The NSA and FBI seem to be quite happy to do it, en masse. The only reason for the CIA to do it would be to get their own copy of the info.
Sure it's illegal to spy in other countries, but that's their problem to figure out who's doing what (if they aren't actively partnering with either agency). But them doing it isn't a surprise either to US citizens or foreign governments.
But what isn't in wikileaks, and all kinds of wack jobs have implying that they are linked, is that the CIA have been using these on American's in the US and the real wack jobs saying the CIA was/is using these tools to spy on Trump (because Trump's tweets about being spyed on and the release of this information happened close together in time).
It'll suddenly be "important" to respect customers privacy, once someone needs to be confirmed to the Supreme Court, and all the websites they have recently visited are purchased from their ISP and made public.
There is LOTS of stuff the US can't readily produce. Or produce at a cost remotely comparable to what China can.
If you want everything to be "Made in USA", be prepared to do without a LOT of stuff. A lot of things just won't be in stores, and a bunch of other stuff will get much more expensive.
Everything described is EXACTLY what the CIA is expected to do. It is literally their job to spy on other people.
If Wikileaks publishes something along the lines of the CIA using these tools on people within the US, then that would be something that is notable (and illegal).
Now the NSA having these tools is more problematic, as they are tasked with both spying on others for USA's economic gain, but it is also their job to secure America from foreign espionage, so keeping software vulnerabilities (which pretty much all of these tools depends on) secret aids in part of their job, but hinders the other... The CIA doesn't have this issue.

Because that's what Trump does. Fix problems.
And grab 'em by the pussy.
You mean like GM's OnStar? That's what, a decade old already...

I think we need Captain Obvious to slap him around a bit.
so, there will be a queue? first pedantry, then grammar, then spelling, then punctuation...

what are you talking about? I'm still here!
"I'll clean up this code later."
Yeah. This not a "omg, this is all new technology".
We built the fucking plane, we used it, it was stupid expensive, we stopped.

No, they don't. Microwave ovens have video cameras. Toasters are for wiretapping. Duh. You can even see the wires when you look inside the slots.

googling pie just makes me hungry.

He's just throwing shade on radio because radio doesn't pay-per-play.
Never happen, because Trump is a closet Moslim.
