Some people live in low-lying areas and can't get a signal, and HOA rules, or the nature of the type of dwelling (apartment, rental house), prevents them from putting up an antenna in a way that gets around those issues.
Try reading the summary, dumbass. Cell phone system are knocked out in natural disasters. A radio station only needs power for one transmitter for a large geographic area.
why I don't use social media - I just don't like being snooped, scanned, evaluated and judged by some unknown mechanisms which, excuse me, reminds me a lot of totalitarian systems where secrete files are kept, people in your neighborhood block have something like a block-ward looking after your activities, everyone suspects somebody and suspects to be suspected.
Next step: They don't believe you when you say you don't use social media, and lock you up for contempt.
Leading to: It's illegal to not actively use social media, and voluntarily report about your daily activities for their overseers to monitor for deviation from expected behaviors.
The second episode was better than the first, but this show feels like it's trying to hard to be multi-racial/gender-whatever friendly. Casting the Klingon as a race of bald dark-skinned creatures with a lone character outcast for having light-skin -- yeah, not being ham-fisted here at all with the metaphors.
If you read carefully you'll see you can watch the show for free next week...
Where?
Tonight CBS will premiere the first new Star Trek TV series in 12 years at 8:30 p.m. on the company’s regular broadcast network.
Immediately afterward, the second episode of Star Trek: Discovery will stream exclusively on CBS All Access — the company’s $6 per month streaming service...
After this week, the third episode will air Oct. 1 exclusively on All Access, and so will the rest of the episodes throughout the show’s first season. (Internationally, the show will air weekly on Netflix).
Is it available for free on the All Access site after the first week?
The easiest evidence would be to provide URLs to those sites that aggregate various unsecured cameras for voyeuristic viewing.
The problem is they would have to prove the makers of those cameras to show they aren't all shady Chinese junk (the kind that doesn't have D-Link's name on it, I mean), and it could be argued the whole site is staged and the people in the feeds aware of the camera being publicly available.
...but the Xiaomi Wi box is supposed to be superb and available for $70.
I think you mean the Mi Box. I don't see Nintendo letting that fly having another device that hooks to your TV and plays games with a name that's phonetically the same.
Have you noticed how you can't even see a Comcast price list if you don't provide them with your address?
That's hardly a revelation. The cost of service varies by region so it's impossible to give you accurate pricing if they don't know where you live. And it's not just who the competing providers are. In a lower-educated blue-collar market you would see higher pricing for HD video service and Premium channel blocks, where in college town and other more affluent markets the Internet service is generally more expensive.
Making you give the exact address is just a nice way of getting a location for a mailing list or door-to-door sales rep's "mark" list.
Things people do in text messages have a direct, verifiable impact on their personal lives. Leaving aside the whole Electoral College system point, the President is only a single branch of the government, and the least important one IMHO. Changes in the head of state may create ripples that down the line impact me personally, but for the most part I see very little difference in my prosperity when the President changes from a D to an R. Changes in Congress have a bigger role because they actually make laws, and I see changes in state and local government influencing things things more.
Note that the AC signed up for a bundle of Internet and BASIC cable. The cord cutters that are reaping huge savings are the ones who were paying for a buttload of channel tiers and renting 3-4 cable boxes, at least one being a more expensive DVR so they could time-shift programming, etc. These expenses go way down when you only have the subscribe to a couple streaming services to have "all the content" and your streaming device is a one-time purchase.
Flash is built into Windows 10, and is updated as a regular part of Windows....this also means the users doesn't have the option of opting out for security reasons either, since it's on the system from day 1 and they have no control over updates.
Better question: Why would you sign up with a cell phone carrier that doesn't operate where you live, especially one whose only good point is the supposed strength of their network. Verizon's certainly not known for great value, and as this article shows, customer service-wise they suck, too.
I mean, if these people were on roaming using all this data, obviously there is somebody with towers up where they live.
After hackers released all the NSA hackware files, Kaspersky went through them and plugged all the holes. That would explain why American intelligence is telling people to avoid Kaspersky.
Let me repeat an old story on this site . . ..
Years ago, (2012 or so) a Norton programmer contacted me and told me that both Norton and McAfee had people permanently stationed at Microsoft, and their only job was to cooperate with Microsoft and make sure their system security products did not close any NSA backdoors that Microsoft put there for the NSA. This is cold hard irrefutable fact, not internet rumor.
Why would the government need to worry about Kaspersky plugging "NSA backdoors" on systems they personally own and have full physical access to? If they want to see what's on their own systems they can, in a worst-case scenario, just walk in the take them.
Uh, discontinuing support for product lines that are not going anywhere streamlines their operations and puts people and capital into more profitable ventures. But thanks for playing...
But if there is 1% of the people out of the millions of transactions requesting more than 100 rows that will still be thousands of requests that need approval. The supervises will get fatigued at the request and just blanket approve them.
Or, they could just hire an appropriate enough number to supervisors to review all these transactions without them getting fatigued.
in the 50s and 60s, an entry level job, paying minimum wage or close to it, fresh out of high school, was also enough to marry your high school sweetheart (who does not work), have a couple kids, and buy a sweet 3 bedroom with a white picket fence and have more than enough left over to save for retirement, take family vacations, etc, etc..etc..etc..
Yes, and why do you think that doesn't work today? Do you think it's a coincidence that wages are not keeping pace with inflation and such? No, it's the exact thing ErichTheRed is talking about, just compounded over several decades.
You haven't been talking to the same people as me. When the browser throws an error, they blame the website.
Really? You must not work support. When anything doesn't work properly, it's the ISP's fault, according to the customer. Especially when it's a script error or the site itself is down.
No, but people who are still in the closet can have a dating profile advertising themselves as straight.
My point being assigning everyone as "straight" and expecting that to give high accuracy based on some figures doesn't make it true, because what you're comparing the AI's results to can be incorrect just as easily.
If the AI were to simply assign scores of "Straight" to EVERYONE, it would achieve 90% accuracy for men and 85% accuracy for women, since about 90% of men are straight and about 85% of women are straight.
And I'm sure nobody gave a false answer (whether knowingly, or because they have not come to terms with themselves) to whatever your source is for that 90% M / 85% F info.

That's definitely Waymo money!
$1.859 bil this week > $2.6 bil last week?
Okay, man. Don't quit your day job.
I suspect it wasn't a case of Holocaust Deniers in power somewhere, and more likely just because of the nudity shown in certain frames.

It's much easier to push around online retailers than to look for solutions to social problems that breed terrorism to begin with.
Besides cutting off access to those radios to apps, what would be the purpose of turning them off now if it doesn't really turn them off?

It's only illegal when it's not a large corporation doing it.

Does Best Buy have a good reason for thinking they know better than their customers?
Isn't that how they have always operated?
