  1. Walk in through the exit, jump the gates or push in through an open gate as someone is walking out. How do people enter the subway without scanning their fare card? Same way.

  2. Re:Seems like a good idea, better loss figures on Amazon May Open Up To Six More Automated Stores This Year (engadget.com) · · Score: 1

    No, it would be very easy to shoplift. Ever heard of flash mobs and balaclavas? Happen even in human-run stores with cameras like 7/11.

    In and out before the automated system has a chance to contact the cops.

    Ubuntu is good.

    But fuck Google, M$, and Amazon too. Their models are based on data theft, just like Apple.

    I'd want a J3 over any iPhone made today. J3 has a headphone jack, removable cloudfree SD storage, and user replaceable battery. Easy to root/jailbreak/sideload unapproved apps too. I don't have to hand in my phone with my data to a bunch of "Genii" or void the warranty just to change the fuckin battery.

  5. Steve Jobs on Apple CEO Tim Cook: 'I've Only Had Good Years' (businessinsider.com) · · Score: 1

    Steve Jobs -- pioneer of computing as a prison. Tim Cook -- master promoter of the same business model. Two sides of the same coin, ta hell with them both.

  6. 700 MHz is in the 10s of cm range as far as wavelength. Should be easy to construct some kind of Faraday cage to block the interference (while still allowing for air cooling), with filters on the AC line and Ethernet to prevent them from radiating as antennas.

    OKC lets you search by criteria, and you can essentially select any that you want.

    Not sticking to your own ethnicity opens up a bigger dating pool...

    Guy's a Trump troll who also bankrolled lawsuits against media whose main crime was digging dirt on the tech industry (Gawker).

  10. No thanks to Chinese tech on How Does Chinese Tech Stack Up Against American Tech? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Ta hell with the idea of social-credit systems.
    Ta hell with mass surveillance of the kind that even the NSA can't dream of in Urumqi.
    Ta hell with body scanners and mass privacy invasion on public transport.

    Thank G-d the West isn't China. We have some pretty scummy governments, but nothing as evil and intrusive as China yet.

    Not only spy on their own kids, but upload their kids' data to a third party. This is either ignorant or evil.

    Good. Hope the suit goes forward regardless of their behavior. Be a stupid cop, deserve to get slapped down by the long schlong of the law.

    Because there's something called RESPECT, that shouldn't require spying on your partner. If your partner doesn't respect you enough to give you your personal space, you shouldn't be with them.

  18. If you can't sell it... on Apple Says That All New Apps Must Support the iPhone X Screen (9to5mac.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    If you can't sell it, you can at least force developers to pretend that it's relevant.

    I'm pretty sure I wouldn't like the police even after I needed them. The one time I "needed" them, their response was utterly bungled and useless.

    what about monitoring a spouse or partner without their consent -- or even pressuring them to consent? nah. fuck this software. hope the entity that created it so be bankrupt next year.

    yes, kids should have freedom to run around and not be stalked by their parents. same as we did in the 90s. fuck this company, hope the hacker did some real and permanent damage. it's called trust.

  24. says they want to know whom to audit ... assuming crypto still holds any value in the next few years.

  25. But the location of such a shipment (with finite shelf life) has good blackmail value.
