Do they also shame any of their own salesmen caught telling a lie to a potential customer, any support person having been unable to help a customer with something they should have been able to and all technical staff whenever there's an issue with the service?
Meaningful words are also likely to cause idiots to start political wars. (Though even meaningless stuff, such as in this case, may be at risk of dipshit politicians if it ever takes off).
Also, most places this is intended for have little in the way of any nameable thing, including cities.
The whole "Chinese room" argument is ass-backwards reasoning to me.
The whole argument only works if you assume whatever happens in the chinese room is not to be considered intelligent, therefore whatever happens in the chinese room is not intelligence.
If you allow for the mere possibility that the chinese room could be considered intelligent, then it follows that if something is indistinguishable from intelligence from outside the room, it must be intelligent by any reasonable definition of "intelligence".
For all we know from the outside, every human brain is a chinese room on the inside.
This $5 board seems to be something for current Pi users who want to have "throwaway" boards or only require the GPIO for their project. The main selling point of these boards is the price. At this price point it becomes more viable as a core component for standalone products.
Quite frankly, I agree with Patton on this one; you have to tolerate bullshit, but you don't have to respect it.
SJW's don't really seem to understand this distinction, hence their frequent misusage of the word "intolerant" to describe tolerant people who don't respect SJW believes and values.
Also; just because somebody agrees on one particular point doesn't necessarily mean they agree on everything else.
Mine just show "MST3K Kickstarter Poised To Break Kickstarter Record" and "Submission: Patton Oswalt recruited for new MST3K cast". Slashdot must be using one of those algorithms that predicts what individual visitors would be most interrested in.

The problem is allowing bait-&-switch tactics like EULA's in the first place.
What happened to the all-ceramic engine? Not all engines have to move themselves, some just move other things while staying in place. (though not many I can think of right now).
I spoke too soon. The proposed misappropriation of the word "break" is plain and pure evil.
If "apple" were to be included in UTF-8, it should be a generic apple-shaped fruit symbol, not the computer brand trademark.
Similarly, any "break" symbol, if adopted in UTF-8 in the proposed context of "a small time-out in between work", should be a generic symbol indicating such, not one indicating a specific brands' marketing campaign.

And they should. You bought an MSI or ASUS or whatever brand graphics card with an AMD-branded Radeon chip... which of these words hint at "Catalyst"? I know it sounds less "k3wl", but what's wrong with naming it "AMD graphics driver". Marketeers should keep their dirty mittens off anything that affects actual users.

Guess pirating isn't the big problem they said it was.
And everybody in the world except anybody not an RIAA/MPAA lawyer was shocked to hear this.

What replaces the insurance in these models?

It's mostly the TEDx (mind the 'x' at the end) talks that seem to be bad.

Laugh up but cry down.
Haha, you fell for ickleberry's obvious bullshit test!

You mean the sysadmin guys failed to set up a separate test network?

To do WHAT exactly?

If religious symbols can be included, any attempt to ban characters because of "mind control" is invalid.

This.
Unless the kitkat shape is a generic, non-patented, non-trademarked, non-copyrighted design, it should not be included.
All it shows is that people are influenced more by the people around them than by people far away.
The real interesting point here is that they're essentially saying that, by definition, upper management is unethical.
It's also much more exciting to discover the many interesting ways in which seemingly ordinary components can be incompatible.

Slashdot; editorial quality you can depend on.
Judgement calls are by definition imperfect.
The mentioned judgement calls seem fair to me, but lets see how people will disagree in 3... 2... 1...
If he's the Bill Gates of India... does that mean I'll start getting calls from Americans trying to convince me my PC is hacked?
And they should.

Blue Origin took about 9 years to recreate a ~50 year old NASA project which took about 10 years.
Just a few centuries more and they'll be caught up.
