They are equals in many things and have the knowledge to become better extremely fast. They can push out products much faster and sooner and cheaper. Development is already done for a big part in China for many, many products.
The reason we think of China as 'cheap and low quality' is because that is what the market wants. That is what people buy. And if they want the quality of other things, remember that that is made in China as well. You ask and they make it AND develop it. Soon you will not need to ask anymore,
1970's? I remember when it was wellknown that all what the Japanese did was copy everything and made bad copies on top of that. Plenty a joke of the Japanese coming to Europe and the US to take pictures of every factory and product but not buy anything. After that the copies became better and later they where the ones that where being copied. They became the leader in many products, especially electronics.
So the second solution of not having a discharged phone is to charge it. Got it. The first I am unclear how that would work unless the sa,me as the last solution. The last means I do not need the phone at all. Why would I use the phone if I have something else?
Basically it means you need to take a spare key with you. I would then rather just use that instead of the phone. That way it won't drop the phone when I am drunk. (That last part was a joke)
As long as I need to take something else with me, it is not a substitution, it is an addition. Just like the FOB was not a substitution to the key, but an addition.
No. You will still have your phone to call for a solution if that fails.
What that solution is depends on the situation. Could be somebody bringing a spare. Could be a garage with a copy. Could be ordering a pizza so you will not starve. Could be asking the hooker to go directly to the hotel instead of picking her up. Could be using the light to find the lost key.
How will they use it? They sell it or they use it to send you ads or both. The "You are unable to text" will be used as a way to make more people use it, so they can sell more data and send you more ads.
The only reason they do not want you to die while texting is so they can keep selling your data and send you more ads.
1. Err this is a solved problem and has been for pretty much every "keyless" car on the market. There's always a secondary means of entry available to owners.
As I do not have a keyless car (I do not even have a car) could you please tell me what the solution is? Because the last car I had and the car I rent or do carsharing woth all have a keyfob. That means that you will still need to have the key with you. Those would always have a key in it that can be used.
If that is the case, then great, using your key OR your phone is an option. In the 17 years I owned my car that I sold I had never a need to replace the batteries.
So I always had a key with me. It was easier to use the fob, but the key was there.
Now if I want to not carry a key with me and depend solely on the phone, issues like empty batteries are very real. Even when I still had a car and a charger in the car, I was left with a flat phone when I walked back to my car. So please do tell what the solutions are as I sincerely have no idea what they could be (except having a fob.key with you)
So how does it feel getting out of a coma that you where in since at least 2001. Wait till you here that we have an orange president after a black one. "Orange is the new black" You'll get it one day.
But they already HAVE a better governmental system in the US. It is theirs and they should be allowed to do with it as they please. If you don't like it, buy your own.
Fuck the companies. The companies are there for the people. The people are not there for the companies. And all they need to do is not sell the data, see that it is secure and if there is a leak, notify people.
This should not be a law, this should be common sense. And no, they can not just outsource it, because THAT would make it expensive.
I work in a high user-data environment and we are directly impacted. You know what we had to change? Replies to the customers where we refer to the new law instead of the old one.
I have friends in similar situation and most of them had to do nothing. Some had to do a bit and one had to do a LOT because they where handing out their data as if it was free beer.
And I already agreed that the copyright law (and for me ANY copyright law) is bad. People can do good and bad at the same time. Hitler was kind to his dog. (Did I now lose the debate?)
And as we have seen in many documentaries made in Hollywood, do not spend to much in your underground layer that is a single point of failure. Also do not wait for some melodramic release.
Some laws are good. Some are bad.. Here one gave power to the people, the other takes it away, (not the same thing they gave.) GDPR is a good one, this is a bad one if this is the final form.
The account and the accessabilty that it brings could be seen as value in and off itself. The fact that Facebook is not public does not mean the public has no rights there. Many public accessible spaces have limitations. As everybody can get an account at Facebook, it can be seen as a public accesible space, like a mall. There will be restrictions and laws that do not apply to e.g. your own home.
Things like this should be opt-in, not opt-out. They should at the desk if I want to use one, go through the EULA with a notary present (paid by the hotel) to be sure I have read the whole thing and then let me decide if I want one or not.

I wonder what would happen if you hold a Mickey Mouse Meeting. Walt Disney is not the most linient company when it comes to copyright.

How else do the plebs learn that surveillance is ok? If you think it is the norm, you will not doubt it.
Oh! FYI: we have always been at war with Eurasia.
I tried it once, but do you have ANY ide how hard it is to type them all in?
I typed it in till 0.255.255.255 and did a trestrun. Nothing.

Free, I do not thing that word means that you think it means.
I do not need this the most.
As Hollywood likes remakes, they should make a remake of Taking care of Busines. Instean of a Filofax, they could use a phone.
Depends on the type of beer. Some beers are and some are not.
It gets better than that. They have convinced many more that only libertarians would do that.
So how does it feel getting out of a coma that you where in since at least 2001. Wait till you here that we have an orange president after a black one. "Orange is the new black" You'll get it one day.
It just is, man.
But they already HAVE a better governmental system in the US. It is theirs and they should be allowed to do with it as they please. If you don't like it, buy your own.
Well, it is better to meditate or to fish than sit around and do nothing.
I prefer watching Baseball myself.
Nonexisting?

The person they talk about did not quit, just did not log in. Not shure why they talk about breaking up.
And as we have seen in many documentaries made in Hollywood, do not spend to much in your underground layer that is a single point of failure. Also do not wait for some melodramic release.

It would be like playing chess with a pigeon. No matter how good or bad you are, the pigeon still shits all over the board.
