Even if they got a pass on that, they would certainly be a 'business associate' which are generally bound by HIPAA rules.
Yes, either Humbubba is total BS or that hospital and PD are in big trouble. There is a pass through for law enforcement, but only to prevent a crime from occurring or to help with patient care in specific instances. No way can you have a 'one way data flow'.
Although this doesn't quite apply to mules, it's close -
"Horses can make other horses, that is a trick that tractors haven't learned yet" - Heinlein
Horses and mules are a hell of a lot cheaper than Boston Dynamics critters and for quite some time will be quieter, more flexible, have more endurance than robots. 'Horses for courses' - use what works.
Well, it's not like Falcons need to get liked on Facebook. The people that make decisions on multimillion dollar satellite launches are a bit better grounded in statistics than the average twitter user.
Is this a bug or a feature? Adobe has been doing pretty well, thankyouverymuch. Personally, I can't stand it and have plans to migrate off of the 'cloud' but it has been embraced by most (non Slashdot) users.
The three drugs that we see in the ER that are of real concern are:
1) Alcohol 2) Alcohol and 3) Alcohol.
THEN comes meth (tweakers are so much fun) and then heroin, or more accurately, fentanyl and carfentanyl, overdoses.
Until we actually deal with the 10% of the population that meets criteria for alcohol addiction, we really aren't moving the needle. Everything else is a rounding error.
I use Dropbox and, to some extent, iCloud. Anything important gets encrypted locally. Yeah, its a bit of a PITA on an iPhone but I'm rarely, if ever, looking at my tax returns on a cell phone.
For smaller files or discrete bits of information that I do want on my mobile devices I use 1Password.
If it's *really* sensitive, it stays on a thumb drive in my gun cabinet.
If it's *really, really* sensitive, I just forget it.
The bomber was white, Christian, home-schooled, anti-LGBT and conservative. This fits the profile of almost all domestic terrorists in the US. Why wasn't he on the FBI's radar?
....
Any how do you know he's wasn't. The FBI follows lots of right wing nuts. But contrary to popular belief, the FBI can't surveil *everybody* (that, apparently, was the CIA's job). There have been dozens of cases that have come to light where people *known* to the FBI and other authorities have slipped under the radar (or cell phone tower) and committed crimes.
The successful MO is coming clear - be white, be socially inept, have some technology background and have an axe to grind.
Chloramphenicoland Rifampinare two that come to mind. The former is a very broad spectrum, very potent antibiotic that fell out of favor because it tended to wipe out the blood forming system. But judicious use is coming back.

It will be like they epoxied two mac-minis together.
No, they said modular. They'll use Velcro.
Not only that, but hydroponically grown vegetables in Antartica have been grown for quite a while as well:

Come on Slashdot. I know this isn't a breaking news site but ....
Do you get upset sitting in the park? You're going over 1000 MPH right on top of thousands of miles of hot, unstable rock.
Dongles! We have dongles!
Yeah, it's changing. But what are they about anyway?

I'm not sure just what this says about where China is or is going but at least they put some muscle into it.
I keep telling kids that taking drugs during school hours is a really bad idea.
This is why.
We've known how to deal with this for a long time -
Form them into a committee, that will do them in.

It sure sounded like something from "Starship Troopers" (the book, not the movie - let's not go there today).
Or Steve Jobs -
"Good artists copy, great artists steal."
China does seem to have a thing about Apple.

Uh, no. This story has been ongoing for quite some time.
The Panopticondates from the 1700's.
It's just that technology has caught up.

Those responsible for the patches that had been sacked have been sacked.
Would RO desalination plants be cheaper?
Than a small device burning a chemical? Not likely. Desalination plants are expensive and cranky of maintenance.

Oh. Wait....
I saw the security footage... He walked up to the fedex counter wearing gloves and a wig. What did he honestly think was going to happen?
The counter guy thought he was going to a party? It is Austin, you know.

Yes, it's called a fever. Works sometimes. It's been tried in humans and has had limited efficacy.
But a reasonable point is not to treat a fever unless the symptoms of the fever are really bothersome. It's not nice to fool Mother Nature.
