If they ask for ID, you either forgot yours, show one without an address (passport), or go to a different store where the checkers are too rushed to care.
No, it can't, but it can slow down significantly. Danger in a collision (kinetic energy) rises as the square of speed. A reduction from 60 mph to 40 mph would reduce the energy of the crash by 50%. As well as giving whatever is on the tracks more time to move off.
Better solution:
Bring a phone or laptop with hidden recording enabled and keylogger through a TSA checkpoint. See exactly what the fucking pigs are doing -- if it's recorded and keylogged, it's no longer secret. Post it on Youtube and Cryptome.
My building has the mailboxes inside the building's front door. Someone needs to sort the letters and packages, and take anything too big to fit to the super's office for pickup. I guess the super or a building employee can do it, but it still requires human work.
Trains need a human operator, if only to look ahead and press a Big Red Button(tm) if anything out of the ordinary happens (computer fails to brake for a station, person on the tracks, cat on the tracks, level crossing gates not closed, etc). This isn't to say that they can't be more automated, but commuter/subway trains can do 60 mph or more, might as well have redundancy to prevent accidents.
Package? Who cares about the package? Think of a pedestrian's head or a the windshield of a vehicle. Even a 20 pound package can be lethal if dropped from a height.
Many issues with drones, which are basically small helicopters... (1) Noise, noise, noise. Do we want to have hundreds of loud little helicopters flying around? (2) Helicopters aren't exactly stable on the best of days. Lose power, it falls out of the sky. Catch the wrong kind of wind gust, same. See also, helicopter crash in NYC's East River yesterday. And yes, an 20 pound object falling from 50 feet can do damage or even kill. (3) Energy. It takes power to beat the air into submission.
Surface delivery via a small automated or semi-automated cart seems more promising.
How do we know Kirk didn't use "edibles" as an excuse to shoot his wife and get away with an insanity defense? Besides, alcohol makes people more violent on average.
As far as the African student, people do stupid things on booze too. Can't make the world 100% safe.
What Earthly good is money if you have no time to enjoy it? There's a fine line between industry and sado-masochism. 90hr/wk is the latter, plus after a certain time at the office, you stop being effective.
This isn't being industrious -- this is a martydom contest about who can stay in the office longest, even if they're playing on their phones 50% of the time.
"Success" is having time for family and leisure as well as making a difference. Working 90hr/wk for a bunch of people who'll likely kick you out the door at age 50 is just sad.
Meanwhile, I got very cheap movies for a month or two... and the next service will be there, ripe for the picking. The real losers? Wall St. investors -- and it's good when they lose out on services that steal customer data.
You need a cell phone to "check in" via the app, but I assume this can be done via WiFi as long as it has GPS. MoviePass also seems to accept PayPal via the app -- quite easy to create another PayPal if they block one email addy.
Better yet, use it in a way that gets you the bennies but deprives the company of your data. i.e. turn the app off when not in use, or install it on an old "burner" phone.
Remember, the only people you're hurting are Wall Street banks and VCs who sink their money into services where you're the product. Yeah, if enough people do it, MoviePass will go bust, but might as well get a nice run with Wall Street money while it lasts.
Right. The US needs a big 'ol recession to wipe the smug smiles off of the faces of various tech industry (aka targeted ad/data theft industry) types. It will be fun to watch the NASDAQ party like it's 2001 when the poop finally hits the prop.
Store discount cards don't track your location, and mine are in the name of Guy Fawkes, 666 Grape Lane (look up the origin of "Grape Lane").........
But it would be relatively easy to turn off the app entirely when not in use via Android settings. It only needs one location -- when you're at the theater, to keep you from sharing the card. (See my previous post for a way to cheat that too.)
Get a card sent to a P.O. Box, pay using a prepaid card. Put the app on a cheap secondary phone which doesn't even need service. Use the theater's WiFi to confirm you're there.
That way, you can share an account (i.e. card + burner phone) among an entire family or group of neighbors and friends. Turn off the phone when not "in use" to turn off the tracking function.
The trailing trucks just contain cargo and will be driverless. The booster is just a booster. Neither will be tragic (in the human sense) if they crash.

Nope -- humans can THINK and spot dangers that a computer was not programmed to notice. Ideal situation is a combination of computer and human.
I'd rather have automated trains with a safety spotter on the business end.
TSA requires a valid ID -- they don't ask for a passport or about international travel.
Better solution: Bring a phone or laptop with hidden recording enabled and keylogger through a TSA checkpoint. See exactly what the fucking pigs are doing -- if it's recorded and keylogged, it's no longer secret. Post it on Youtube and Cryptome.
in this case, the waste is often chemically explosive.

Truck burnt down, driver got out. Better than a flaming drone falling on someone's rooftop and torching their home.

1) Move closer to work.
2) 50+15hr = 65hr/wk, not 100hr as the person who started this string claims.
It's a plant -- you can eat it or cook with it.
Define "falling behind" -- standard of living in Western Europe is quite comfortable.

If you want to un-fuck kids in the US, start by going after the Adderall and anti-depressant pushers.

Nice try -- I don't have MoviePass, but I'm explaining a possible exploit for those who want to use it.

Suck on that, Mitchie-boy.
