Asians were 'oppressed' much more than black people were in the recent past, just ask George Takei (Mr. Sulu). Black people haven't been oppressed for give-or-take 50 years; that's several generations of black people growing up without knowing what it was like to be segregated. Still, historically, black crime wasn't nearly disproportionate as it is today even though they were 'oppressed'. In the early 1900's-1950's race of incarcerated people largely resembled the actual population ratios although it was higher for those of 'negro' decent (that was the word used in context to statistical data), there were many times more white people in prison than any other race.
- GM had 5 confidential settlements and engineers knowing about their ignition switch problems for 10 years before they even changed anything or did a recall. - Nissan had confidential settlements regarding airbags deploying too violently before issuing a recall
There are law firms specializing in confidential settlements with car manufacturers after accidents. People died in car accidents and these manufacturers were allowed to settle with an NDA attached. This poor Tesla just had some suspension breaking, something that you see quite a bit if you live near a street with lots of potholes, a relatively high concentration of GM vehicles.
This was written for a film festival type audience, if you've ever seen those shorts, you'd see it's actually relatively close and if they didn't tell you it was written by an AI would definitely win 'most artistic' or whatever category. There is a semblance of a line in the plot, there is a lot of repetition which is a giveaway but otherwise a nice amount of short stretches of line.
Unless you have an exact, indistinguishable copy of yourself as a machine, the kids know the difference between a machine and a human being. This is the same thing that people blamed computers for and before that rock&roll and comics and before that crime/romance novels and before that... you get the idea.
In the end, it's the parent's responsibility to teach the difference between commanding a machine and interacting with a human. You don't "interact" with Siri or Echo like you do with people, it's a robot, if you were living in the 18th century you would have a servant you could command pretty much the same way, yet people never thought having servants was a bad influence on the kids.
I don't have to and I haven't. Google the damn thing and find out that the FBI/NSA initially tried to subvert traffic by inserting large amount of exit nodes they controlled, later they funded a spying effort on Tor traffic through an academic front (was it Stanford?) who was collecting the "academic" data and transferring to the agency, in between there Snowden revealed at least 2 additional programs to subvert traffic. In more recent times, they have prosecuted the creator of Tor2Web into what appears to be a suicide, harassed another developer to flee to Germany, refuse to release several flaws they use to "investigate" as evidence to courts, and now the organization behind Tor seems to be compromised.
There have been a number of serious issues with the Tor network recently. We've seen official government efforts to neutralize the network, then we've seen a number of exploits that has allowed government agencies like the FBI and NSA to spy on Tor networks. Then we see them going after Tor developers and finally we're supposed to believe that the lead Tor developer is 'dirty'?
Tor is dead, it's still too centralized to be sufficiently safe. We need alternatives.
The same link also says that in 2000 they had a system in place that allowed hostile forces to be denied service. So what's this 'new tech' necessary for?
One of the many reasons I'm not using PayPal is because they thrive of these refunds and using any excuse possible to lock large sums of money in their system. Obviously they continue claiming they're "not a bank" and therefore don't have to follow any of the rules that any other merchant account needs to. With a little bit of looking around you can find cheaper options to PayPal, even solid merchant accounts for credit card processing.
There are actually two types of GPS signals one for US military use and one for civilian use. The civilian GPS system is capable of sending 'bad' information and actually was built with artificial precision issues.
All modern cars track everything about your car. The values are shoved in a little box and are readable by the manufacturer. They aren't sent off remotely (yet) for advertising purposes without your knowledge.
You also have to look at HOW it got to 100%. If a sensor fails, the value will jump from let's say 10% (to park) to 100%. The log would show something like this: 9-12-10-8-9-12-100. If a user presses the pedal it goes something like this: 9-12-10-8-15-40-55-72-91-100 (given you measure something like this in human muscle reaction range which you probably do because otherwise the car would respond sluggish)
But that is exactly my point. If you don't want to pay the taxes and allow shared use of a public road, make it private and provide your own police and firemen and sewage and water supply and electricity generation. These kinds of people (and corporations) want us (the tax payers) to provide all that for them and then complain someone is walking/driving in "their" street.
Here too, the city loves those kinds of cars. They get to boot/tow them and collect $150 in fines. Then if you don't pay up it gets added with additional fines and accruals to your yearly taxes.
Property lines typically include the sidewalk and sometimes portions of the street - basically up until the main sewage line for me (the city doesn't want to be responsible for 'my' portion of the sewage line).
It's called property taxes and living in a society. Everyone pays for maintaining "their" portion of street and sidewalk and in return you can use someone else's portion of street and sidewalk. How would I go about charging anyone that crosses my property line?
Yeah, I lived in one of those for a while. The corporation buys it for dimes on the dollar from the city, you get to pay full price for it but when it comes to actually fixing anything, they tell you to call the city to come and fix it.
Then they can be gated and wouldn't show up on government databases which GPS manufacturers use. More often, these roads, utilities, right of ways and even entire neighborhoods are paid for by tax payers and later annexed by private home owner associations. We have plenty of those around here, the government gives great incentives on properties, taxes, supplies utilities, roads and police. If you want a fully private consortium to maintain your area, then pay for the damn utilities and security yourself.
Apple's Bonjour stack defaults to using the IPv6. Although it is possible that it resolves to v4 only, all printers and other devices so far have resolved to v6
But most end users won't care about any of that. It either works or it doesn't. I had IPv6 at home from TWC for several weeks before I finally realized my router's IPv6 address was actually routable (I had enabled IPv6 years ago, it self-assigned one for all that time)
Yes, on the business side, in the US at least, IPv6 may require some extra steps but unless you're a service provider or a network admin, you don't need to worry about it. Cheap VPS will probably go in the direction of dual stack or even IPv6-only as the v4 pool actually gets exhausted, once that starts happening you'll see more of a push for everyone to implement v6.
Plenty of people are using IPv6. It's transparent to most so it requires literally no effort to enable it. Anyone using Apple products on their internal network for the last decade has used IPv6 (Bonjour) and in recent past almost all European and Asian providers and even large American ones (TWC) run dual stacks with some small pockets in Asia and some mobile networks having pure IPv6 (due to v4 exhaustion) with translation in place.
Food stamps/cheques are a common form of payment among neighbors in my area. Even corner stores will accept payment in the form of food cheques and then go out to Walmart to stock their shelves with milk and eggs.
Go out to ANY black or Hispanic neighborhood in the US and you'll find the practice common. Even the debit cards, although fully illegal I often see Walmart and other grocery chains accepting one person paying with 4 different cards.
There is no economy where there is a surplus of workers. There is a shortage of qualified workers and a shortage of people that want to work dead-end jobs. Most western countries already have UBI in the form of permanent unemployment and welfare benefits, yet every McDonalds, every restaurant, every contractor, grocery store, hospital, farmer in my area is LOOKING, have signs and provide training and cannot find people to work for them. Students are getting hired at $15-20/h for a summer job. And yet, unemployment is at 12% according to the statistics because our government gives everyone section 8 housing and sufficient food and unemployment benefits to raise a family.

Inept? Or do they just want the control?
I don't have to and I haven't. Google the damn thing and find out that the FBI/NSA initially tried to subvert traffic by inserting large amount of exit nodes they controlled, later they funded a spying effort on Tor traffic through an academic front (was it Stanford?) who was collecting the "academic" data and transferring to the agency, in between there Snowden revealed at least 2 additional programs to subvert traffic.

It's Youtube for channels with a focus on live streaming.

And you'll be responsible for their tow and get a fine for having a car without plates or registration parked in the road. Nice try.
