This is a YC-backed company, so they are associated with this fraud. They had to know of this before okaying and backing it and profiting off of it for 6-7 years so far. Paul Graham should be considered complicit in this and taken into a courtroom.
Truth in Advertising, FTC Regulations, fucktard. Specifically this would fall under false and misleading advertising by omitting the fact that there is a hidden microphone. Informed consumers would likely not purchase this if they knew. I certainly would not, and thus that meets one of the elements necessary for the law.
"Oh, bullshit. The microphone isn't a feature until it starts being used."
So you'll have no problem with me selling you a device, not saying it has a microphone, and then listening to you at will with a surreptitious update. Thanks, you fucking corporate lapdog. You're one of the reasons we have all of this spying shit now.
Man can make it, man can break it. Trust me. Nothing is that secure excepting you being the only one with the code, and you hold nukes at the same time with the ability to launch, guide, and detonate them.
Oh wow, a whole thirty seconds if you're actually competent - subtract starting cash, count remainder and see if it matches up with till output. Are you too stupid to be able to quickly count?
"We also gained valuable real-time insight into purchasing habits and trends."
Personally getting to know your customers gives you a lot more insight. Sounds like you work for a failing business.
"If you see a gas station that charges less for cash transactions, you can bet that you will find some fishy things on those books."
I do internal auditing. Give me ten minutes with your company's books and I bet I'll find at minimum three fuckups.
What it does is depress prices locally, causing other prices to drop, like housing, and such.
Which only makes the locals more able/likely to purchase at those prices.
Which means the prices drop all around and depress the area even further.
Basic fucking economics, people. Low priced areas breed low-priced outcomes. Bring the wages and prices up, the economy enjoys some amount of prospoerity for a sustained period of time instead of a short period of time gained by thrifting the poor.
"Are you seriously trying to claim that all the 20 somethings that want to get "medical" marijuana are not making shit up and are actually suffering from macular degeneration?"
You must fail hard at reading as I never once mentioned anything about marijuana. Perhaps you should put the joint down, yourself.

" First, 0.000000000001% is not a chance to anybody sane"
Yet people play the lottery with far worse odds, and win.
Try again when you understand statistics, fool.
Oh, speaking of cowardly shit, looks like your bedug.com domain is all "Redacted for Privacy" on whois.
You fucking hypocrite cowardly fuck. What kind of child porno server are you running behind that domain, eh?
Start posting your personal details so we can tell if you have something to hide or not, asshole.
See how quickly that gets turned on your sorry and ignorant old ass?
Oh, you're a Z00phile. Pretty obvious by your name, animal fucker. Got that pawprint tattoo, too?

" Fourth, pre-cooling or pre-heating beyond 1 hour does nothing at all in most homes."
Guess you've never lived in a nearly non-insulated California home.
So, you willingly fucked Creimer?
Even I can't scrape the bottom of that barrel. And I used to work in porn.
The only 'novel' thing is that it checks your data remaining.
Instead of assuming that you have unlimited data, as you should have now.
Thanks for helping to enforce data limits, Microsoft.
"If the encryption is sound (e.g. LUKS with a reasonable password), then that is not possible"
0.000000000001% chance is still a fucking chance. Ever hear of LUCK? Anyone familiar with mining crypto is quite acquainted with it.

You've obviously missed the trend of doing reversal replacements. Munson is a mix of Nelson Muntz, backwards. MUNtz nelSON.
Fuck I'm old as dirt and I still keep up with the times. What's your excuse?
"Crohn's disease doesn't kill you"
Tell that to my pal sitting in the ground right now, dead from the shock of the pain Chron's inflicts upon you.
Fucktard.
" All of them except wind and solar do well in storms."
Better go tell that to Haiti, the Phillippines, Indonesia, etc.
You very obviously don't know what Asian grocery Bird's Nest is if you think Amazon will ship it.
In fact, as I look on Amazon right now, no, it does not exist anywhere.

Welp, we know you're brain-damaged if social media is the only media you can think of.
Spoken media.
Video media.
Artistic media.
Go back to school and grow up, child.
Yea, you aren't killing off street food vendors any more than you're killing off the homeless.
Reach harder, Slashdot. Maybe get some editors with brains.

YEA!!!! Now we're getting into libel.
Keep it up, your own hatred for me is about to consume you and trap you just how I want it to.
July 13 2000 was the first release of build 2250 of XP (over 18 years, now.) Official RTM was April 2001.
Try again when you actually worked in the industry at that time.
Hey, look, I found APKs little buddy!
How are you doing, little child?
Slashdot anonymity is broken, moron. How do you think I found APK and his mother's addresses?
What a pathetic AC. Doesn't even realize they're already exposed.
And when I find you, I'll have my second strike. I don't give two flying fucks, boss. I'll find you just like I found APK.
