I wasn't aware of the French study most of my reading had to do with observations made by farmers, and scientist on the ground working with these crops. Here is an article on the French study if anyone is interested, because I was curious to see why posting this would be embarrassing. http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/09/19/gmcrops-safety-idUSL5E8KJAGN20120919
Will I get into a post war pasting links and shouting "discredited" with you or anyone else? No. What's the point? What I believe and what you believe make no difference.
Wondering if anyone has tried making a mini render farm out of these small scale units, for 3D rendering, video effects rendering or even cracking passwords. The only reason I see doing it is price point, GPU's these days kick ass on all of the above but typically can be more expensive.
"Human knowledge is based on stories and the human brain consists of cognitive machinery necessary to understand, remember and tell stories.[8] Humans are storytelling organisms that both individually and socially, lead storied lives.[9] Stories mirror human thought as humans think in narrative structures and most often remember facts in story form. Facts can be understood as smaller versions of a larger story thus storytelling can supplement analytical thinking. Because storytelling requires auditory and visual senses from listeners, one can learn to organize their mental representation of a story, recognize structure of language and express his/her thoughts.[10]"
Step 0: Control media outlets and discredit all that are not under your power, Propaganda!!! Why is this step 0? Because with the media intact and doing what it is required by society, none of the other crap would have happened, however the buck stops with the people, if the people aren't going to do anything about it then they get what they get.
Step 1: Create a crisis or allow one to happen.
"You never let a serious crisis go to waste. And what I mean by that it's an opportunity to do things you think you could not do before." -Rahm Emanuel
Create an enemy that will never go away (terrorist) and wage a war that will never end (terrorism) and define the enemy as "those without any rights" and can be held indefinitely (National Defense Authorization Act)
Step 2: Promise to protect the populace from said crisis/enemy by any means necessary, begin by restricting rights in the name of security.
Step 3: Implement a massive trillion dollar (data from The Economist) surveillance network HLS, TSA, NSA, DIA OMG, WTF, BBQ ), record all calls, maintain facial recognition database (thank you Facebook) fill the air with drones and the ground with cameras. Monitor for dissent. (see: fbi-coordinated-crackdown-occupy below)
Step 4: Dis arm populace (http://www.feinstein.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/assault-weapons)
Step 5: Tighten grip further via martial law or other "required security protocols", rename political protest groups as "terrorist" deregulate corporations, dismantle workers rights, remove environmental protections, and finally ammo up. (Department Of Homeland Security Is Buying 450 Million New Bullets)
Anyone not complying or protesting is a terrorist. (see step 1)
And most likely one of the last as new regulations pushed forth by corporate lobbies will restrict drone use or create "air space" restrictions over corporate land.
Is the kid was crying while he described finding porn, so either his father coached him for the soon to be announced law suit or the kid is frightened of naked people... which is pretty damn sad.
USB hub with ~20 ports, 20 MK802 III's running Ubuntu and your preference of rendering software, now I know it isn't going to be powerful but at the price point, it's scalable, cheap, low power consumption.
What do you do in a World where robots can build and repair themselves? What use would the majority of humans be when computers and robots can do the majority of work?
Sure sounds like some scifi scenario right up until the first AI is turned on, so yes eventually robots will someday replace humans entirely, as they have been doing so in a limited fashion for years already.
"The first case deals with items bought in other countries for resale in the U.S"
That will lead to everything having a foreign copyright or being made overseas so that it can not be resold in the US where the consumer has the least rights and the corporation has the most rights (See Citizens United for an example)
"The second case is about whether music purchased on services like iTunes can be resold to other people."
If "Big Media" could they would force you to stream everything and to pay for that, you would never be allowed a personal copy, you would always be required to go to the source, so far the medium they used hasn't allowed that sort of control, but that is the goal. They would also like you to store all your digital media in the cloud so they can tie in all your taste under one data set with your name on it, or more likely tied to your Facebook login. After all Facebook is trying to be the primary data store for all its "users" (read: users = data sets with little to no rights)
"'The endotoxin-producing Enterobacter decreased in relative abundance from 35% of the volunteer's gut bacteria to non-detectable, during which time the volunteer lost 51.4kg of 174.8kg initial weight and recovered from hyperglycemia and hypertension after 23 weeks on a diet of whole grains, traditional Chinese medicinal foods and prebiotics.' "
Which translates to "If you don't eat fatty foods you won't get fat"
But hey blame it on the bacteria, that has to be easier than a diet of "whole grains" and prebiotics.
First of all in order for data to be collected it has to recorded, don't do anything that can be recorded and attract attention, at least don't do it over the net or in paper and that agency has nothing (except their own data they generated).
"counter-insurgency activity" Really? Wouldn't you be looking for "insurgency"? I mean don't you people at the "insert gov acronym here" see the US population as a giant group of potential insurgents? Why else would you want to get details on *us*.
The whining over privacy is annoying, none of you do anything about it except post and whine (yes the same thing I'm doing right now), so my opinion is don't leave a trail and you have nothing to worry about.
If I'm lying there barely conscious it seems to me the easiest thing to do would be to dial the same number 3 times, for example 111, you don't even have to look to do that.
2011 "Reporters Charles Duhigg and Keith Bradsher begin their lengthy piece with an unsettling anecdote set at a 2011 dinner for Silicon Valley big wigs that was attended by President Obama. At one point the president asked the late Steve Jobs why Apple couldn’t bring back to America the tens of thousands of jobs it had outsourced, mostly to Asia, where its iPads, iPhones and other products are engineered and assembled.
“Those jobs aren’t coming back,” Apple’s CEO reportedly replied. End of discussion.
According to Duhigg and Bradsher, Apple’s brass believes the American worker, besides earning too much money for his or her labor, just doesn’t possess “the flexibility, diligence and industrial skills of foreign workers.” Last week Frying Pan News writer Jon Zerolnick described the “flexibility” of Apple’s subcontracted Chinese workers, with their 34-hour shifts and 12-foot by 12-foot dormitories, and their skill at sliding into coffin-sized beds at night. Victorian Manchester was a worker’s paradise by comparison."
2012 "'We've been working on this for a long time, and we were getting closer to it. It will happen in 2013. We're really proud of it. We could have quickly maybe done just assembly, but it's broader because we wanted to do something more substantial.'"

research has shown some GMO's are harmful.
I predicted they would all buy guns, but this is pretty much the same thing.

If you agree with the above then it's hard for me to imagine disagreeing with the idea that TV, movies, and video games have poisoned our society.

I doubt most people using Instagram understand the implications (if any) created by the policy change.
Stop using Facebook.

Psychopathy as art? Rather than decide if it is "art" or not, question why it needs to exist.
Sure burn up our food and use it for cars in a starving World.
Is that supposed to shame people? Because now they will need their guns for self defense from nutjobs.
Seen the new Dredd movie? Still think we don't have a problem with ultra violent media?

We all know it when we see it, which would imply there is a way to measure it.
What's the point of voting a 3rd party when the first 2 control everything, a libertarian president would be the ultimate lame duck.

They are in dire need of name change as it reminds me of what a burning vehicle would look like on re-entry.
