That is capitalism, stop complaining about your own comfort and complain about capitalism if you have a problem.
Laying infrastructure is not free or even cheap. Here are other everyday things you pay more for because you live outside of a large metro: -gas -groceries (milk, eggs, everything) -hardware supplies
If you are so outraged at the DSL pricing scheme the list of non-everyday things will make you faint.
Of course socializing in one of the purposes. Are all those smartphone users going to just stop moving once the texts and calls stop? No. They are going to talk to others and in the quiet moments in between when they are by themselves reflect on something.
Waking up in a pitch black room can be bad for your health too if your tripping over someone else's crap.
Fortunately my spouse insists on lights being on in the closet and hallway despite me telling her for 10 years it is unhealthy. Will stop before I start to rant. Dark clean safe room = better health
People are stupid so slowing down the proliferation of nuclear so people can learn from others lack of foresight was a good thing. How many people did bad things with nuclear plants? A lot. Don't put it all on Greenpeace. Put it on lack of oversight and careless people that caused Greenpeace to be fearful.
The only scenario in the attached article that would worry me are the assassin robots. -spammers using AI, a smart marketing person can do this now. -ai to find holes in OS or softtware, a university student can do this now -the big brother stuff: we already have that right now and it is a false narrative the way they put it.
Things I found on youtube kids that should not have been there
1) a cartoon promoting Islam as the only religion and all other religions as false. 2) tons of Peppa Pig satires that were not suitable for kids. 3) parents getting around child labor laws by clearly working their kids long hours doing videos for profit. 4) kids providing a bad example for my kid.
I would recommend every parent not allow their kids access to it. It can't be trusted so I uninstalled the app and made my own playlists.
How can we have free will when our world is artificially shaped to manipulate us? There is something to be said for the time when we had to dwell in caves.
When I would take Excedrin (which has acetaminophen) I would get this lovey type feeling. Maybe it acts like other drugs and reduces the ability of those lovey sections of the brain from working as well.
I am not a lovey guy but I am not about to jump to the conclusion is was all the Excedrin I was taking but I always worried a bit that I may have overdid it because of its affects on the liver. Now I have one more thing to dissuade me from using it.
Not much different than right wing - left wing debate or office politics. While the paper is a good let us (North America) judge China too harshly we should look at we allow in our own backyard.
I don't like sharing my earth with people that can't think more than 1 step ahead. That is how we got into a lot of the messes we have now. 5500 sq feet sounds like a lot but that number is wrong. and misleading. 70% of the earth is covered in water, that means it is 1650 sq ft per person.
40ftx40ft for each person if we include mountains, hot and cold deserts. Room for forests? Room for common areas? Outdoor spaces? Transportation space even if it is just sidewalks? Food growing space? Space to keep us from gnawing each others heads off like rats in the sewers?
Are humans destined to be those planet killers from the movies sucking up all the resources and moving on to the next planet? We are going to have to get it together and solve issues here first otherwise it is same crap different pile. Besides, I don't think my kids can afford to move that far.
The sentence that was used is bad. It allowed 2 parties to say yes there is a missing comma. They then put their comma in different places. The judge said OK. You are both right but traditionally the law falls on the side of labor and so it shall this time.
You missed at least one option, the options the drivers argued.
(packing for shipping) or (packing for distribution)
Clearly the drivers do not pack.
The canning, processing, preserving, freezing, drying, marketing, storing, packing for shipment [right here is where the employer needed a comma to win] or distribution
Actually. It is complicated. You don't know enough to know that and that makes you dangerous if you were a DBA. Schemas, OLAP, speed, how to write queries so you actually get the results you were expecting and not some subset.......
Anyone that voted you up either did not think about it or is equally as dangerous.
I KNOW you misunderstand how fracking works. Do you even know what potable water is? Why would there be any need to put potable water into the earth?
Fracking involves pumping a chemical mixture (which is mostly water) with 3-12 chemicals and quartz sand. Or something to that effect. The rest of your post is not based on knowledge of the fracking industry....just BS. I am not saying you are wrong on it all.
How your post ends up with a 5 score shows the ignorance of the Slashdot crowd as a whole.

The blackout of 2003 was good for people socializing. This will be too.

Shows are broadcast on a predetermined schedule.
A show gets a zero until something is submitted.
that will get the spelling right.
Anyways it is pretty dumb that Nelson has not been able to vet this out.
Sounds reasonable to me.

Over 4 years neither doctors or massage worked.
Chiropractor fixed it in 1 month.
End of story.

the only way we are fitting 1 trillion people on this planet is if we shrink our species to the size of garden gnomes and stack us 50 high.

Hopefully the new Xbox will be less redundant than the including "Scorpio" in each one of the OPs specification points 1-6
The only informative part of this news is Forza does 60fps.
What about what really counts? VR performance.

I don't wonder who is paying for this particular clever "story".
ha ha no. I suspect that Denis is a wise man.
