I think this may be the last iteration of the design pioneered by the iPhone 5S. We may see in 2019 what amounts to an "iPhone X writ small" that has a 4.7" edge-to-edge screen but is physically only a little bigger than the iPhone SE.
Given the size of the bezel on the Sony, it would probably be possible to make it the same height as the current SE with a 4.7" screen, but it would probably gain a little in the width.
Call me crazy, but no one forced these people to go to these events. Were the meetups for the same political topics in person that they were advertised as? Was there some "bait and switch" thing going on here? Did people leave when they found things aren't what they expected?
If these participants all got together and found solidarity in their shared views, then I'd say the events functioned exactly as they should -- regardless of who organized it. Maybe the people who went are just embarrassed to admit to the sometimes racist, xenophobic, or religiously intolerant viewpoints that brought them all together.
If they want to see who "trolled" them, I believe they will find the individual in the bathroom mirror.
In fact I'm not sure I will ever run Windows 10. I'm on the tail end of my system (Core i7 920)'s life, so I could build my next system and just install Linux Mint. Or maybe I'll get a Mac desktop to go with my (mid 2010) MacBook I have for a laptop.
The content providers aren't the problem. All our troubles lie with the service providers.
You're right! The problem isn't the content provider, ComcastNBCUniversal, it's the service provider, ComcastNBCUniversal. Good thing we didn't direct our anger at the wrong corporation.
Google on Thursday pushed an update to its marquee Web browser Chrome, now at v64, which offers a handful of new features including an improved ad blocker.
Chrome has an ad blocker? I think given Google is also an advertising company, bundling something that blocks other companies' ads would raise some FTC eyebrows. How about a pop-up blocker, like it says in the title?
I'm sure AT&T's idea of the legislation will include some paragraph nullifying the recent state attempts at their own net neutrality rules. Need to cut the down the number of politicians they need to bribe.
I'm not on Twitter. Neither is anyone else in my family. Because state government wrongly assumes that all its citizens are willing to be interrupted by tweets all day long, those that aren't are just acceptable losses?
Don't modern smartphones have the ability to receive "emergency communications" in a manner completely separate from any social network? Why didn't they use that communication method? It's an app on my phone and I cannot uninstall it (unless I wanted to root the phone that is). I can turn off updates to select types of emergencies, but there is one category "Messages from the President" that cannot be disabled. "Impending thermonuclear war" seems like an appropriate use for this app.
The trojanized apps, including Signal and WhatsApp, function like the legitimate apps and send and receive messages normally.
Why would anyone expect a messaging app associated with Facebook to be a secure communication method? Especially if you're trying to avoid government snooping. Using the most popular, closed-source, corporate-owned social network platform is like painting a big bulls-eye on your back.
I think it's amusing you chose this title for your post, when keeping kids off social media at a young age would likely help them not be narcissistic assholes, like certain internet celebrities.
You're trying to attach the "r" to an "n". I'm pretty sure the password is "warningpoint2". You know, because this is an emergency management facility.
The only reason new clothes are so cheap is because of the labor exploitation in all steps of the chain making the production costs cheap. Pay the textile industry laborers, the button makers, the garment sewers, and the retail employees selling the new clothes a living wage and we'll see the price gap increase dramatically.

I think the problem here is the refrigeration equipment required for stable operation (you know, that thing you're leaving off to take the summary's quote out of context), not that no one would want a quantum computer in their home. The Apple II came out in 1977, and could be set up on a small table.
Most senior citizens don’t have copious amounts of spare cash - so this first really needs to filter down to the low end of the automotive market.
You might want to look up this "retirement community". Their target customer isn't senior citizens, it's rich people who happen to be over 55.
The community, geographically larger than Manhattan, features more than 40 golf courses, a polo arena and special events throughout the year. Most of the more than 123,000 residents travel via golf cart, some of which have been upgraded enough to cost more than most cars.
I betcha the streets are all very low speed limits if golf carts are considered "normal road traffic". Perfect place to test a bunch of unproven vehicle technology.
It added that Apple had "strong data privacy and security protections in place and no backdoors will be created into any of our systems."
That doesn't mean a whole lot when the Chinese company is the one running the physical machines, Apple. Or are you saying there's no way a MTTM attack can be introduced?
To be fair, there is a major security flaw covering the majority of desktop CPUs sold over the last two decades.
It's been around for two decades, and known about for years based on earlier reports, and the world did not some to an end during that time. Taking a few months for proper testing before deploying isn't going to be an issue.
People don't install Ubuntu to be on the bleeding edge.

So almost like what Sony has been doing for years.
Given the size of the bezel on the Sony, it would probably be possible to make it the same height as the current SE with a 4.7" screen, but it would probably gain a little in the width.
On a laptop, there are plenty of places right on the laptop itself you could lift a print from.
That's why I use my big toe as my fingerprint authentication device.
Then again... does anyone really care? Is this merely a publicity stunt?
It might be a way of publicly shaming him, since it's unlikely people would keep track of changes in the record after him holding it for so long.
A source suggests the first option is preferred and essential to protect against competition from China and "bad actors".
How are they going to build the network without using hardware that is made in China?

On 8.1 here, and I'm going to do the same thing.

Maybe we can give arm bands to identify those we are supposed to be scared of?
Why do they need arm bands? They already wear badges.

Post made more sense when I read it as "end NASA funding for ISIS"
I suspect that's exactly what Trump thinks he's doing, too.
I'm sure AT&T's idea of the legislation will include some paragraph nullifying the recent state attempts at their own net neutrality rules. Need to cut the down the number of politicians they need to bribe.
BINGO!

Considering the rate they are selling them at, I do not think Amazon considers it a problem at all.
The password's been changed to "Warmingpoint3" now, so don't bother trying the old one, it won't work.

Whoops. Obviously I meant MITM there.

Well I can see why he wouldn't agree to pay. Yelp wont even tell him what they are going to do!
Even if they're not washed out, their balance may be off and they're going to be mighty red-faced.
No, I think they will be very pale when the final picture emerges.
