And how exactly is that supposed to work when the police who break the law are not punished?
It's worse than that. The people who investigate the police are their buddies. There's precious little transparency. In fact, not far from where I live, the police are going to be issued body cameras but the rules were changed so that the officer can watch the video before he writes up his report. You know, so he can get his story straight.
With the push for higher minimum wage for low/no skill jobs, I'm sure there will be more focus on robots that can flip burgers and serve up milk shakes.
Oh, please. First you need robots that can do that, second you need people to maintain those machines, third you still need people to do all the other jobs that still have to be done besides flipping burgers and serving shakes. Did you know that most McDonalds shut down every night, everything in the kitchen is taken to the sink to be washed and sanitized, then put back so the morning crew can flip a switch and start serving customers? Did you know that twice a week a huge truck comes by, drops off boxes of food ingredients, and those have to be inventoried and stashed properly so they can be used throughout the week. When that stuff comes, the next promotion that comes around has to be deployed, cardboard cutouts assembled, decor changed, etc. Basically at a corporately-owned McDonalds you are not a burger-flipper. You're a surprisingly nimble meat-bag capable of just about any task that is required to run an establishment about that.
What I'm trying to tell you is that you can automate the cooking of the meat or the dispensing of the shake but you're not removing any significant amount of man-power to the place. You might be able to shave one or two people during the weekday lunch shifts, but until they start making full on androids you're nowhere near minimum-wage motivated store automation.
What your'e really going to see is a higher-priced burger. I say: "Bring it!"
The article is very short and you could have read most of it in the time it took you to post the above irrelevant post, but as it is you are not even aware it's so irrelevant that it looks very silly in context.
It's a lot less silly if you know anything about Microsoft or Apple and read the stories about exploits in their systems, here. I've actually people describe Android malware, for example, as 'freedom'.
In short, you and a couple of people with mod-points missed the point of my post. I have no hard feelings, I know double-standards are hard to admit to.

So, what, you want to use Arduino but draw the line at connecting it to the internet...?
. No criminal would be stupid enough to release malware for an OS that commands 1.5% of the desktop market share.
Except for Android...
Heh. Ever notice that Linux and Android are two distinct entities until somebody mentions marketshare?
The video shows him stealing cigars, then shoving the proprietor out of his way, then threatening/menacing him.
It shows an altercation. It also shows money changing hands and the store owner didn't call it in to the cops.
This event speaks quite a bit to his character, and his mood at the time.
Mood yes, character, no. The rap-sheet you're operating from is something you've invented.
Michael Brown did not hold up a store.
But treating white people poorly is okay!!!
White people are not treated as poorly as black people.
No racist terminology at all.
Acting like it doesn't actually happen has, to date, proven ineffective.
You really don't get the point of that saying.

Sure, when white liberal guilt makes people say blacks "need our help", that is Racism.
I haven't heard this one. What I heard was: "stop treating black people poorly."
They need to help themselves, rather than leaning on the perpetual crutch of "white people hate us".
This is a very poor description of what's going on in a world where black people are 3x as likely to be killed by a cop than white people.
The ones who died at the hands of the cops are those with multiple infractions and long rap sheets who physically resisted arrest.
You are poorly informed.
Ordering that pizza from Pizza Hut got her out of that predicament. ;)
The only thing it says is that he has a sense of humor.
Translation: "Oops... nobody backed me up like I thought they would."
Anything beyond that is 100% projected, and you know it.
That's just desperate.
I'd give you the stink eye as well for drinking that much soft drink in one go. There's something like 90g of sugar in that drink there.
Heh. So you're saying you give stink-eyes to people based on some fan-fiction you've written of them.
I'd like to know which brand of microwave lasts 17 years?

...as she demonstrated terrible choices in men AND pizza.
Your comment speaks volumes about you and says little about her.
Nearly every criminal arrested files a complaint about something, regardless of merit.
Citation needed.
Well... uh... double bite-me on you!
With that level of pedantry you must be quite a hit with the [your preferred gender].
What is the proper term for a female furry equipped with a penis?
It sounds like this project originally started as an ambitious yo-mama joke.
I don't know what's worse: This remark from Captain RTFA or the fact that I already explained it. Good night.
Again... Double-standards.

Nobody who owns a Roomba are worried about that day coming.

They are assholes to everyone and will shoot you and your dog regardless of color.
Yeah, that's why black people are 3x as likely to be killed by the cops than white.
It's only a teeny bit harder than logging in before you post.
