The big difference in the supermarket is that it is a public place... With no reasonable expectation of privacy.
You could order your Pappa John's cardboard circle whilst stark naked (best to don some type of clothing when you accept the delivery though...)
Can't do that in a supermarket
Has'Troof' social for 50 million fools to sign up then?
Another though here is this: doesn't the minimum 50 million subscribers bit fall afoul of the equal protection amendment thing? ("We're treating you differently to these other folks because, all else being equal, this arbitrary number means we want to")
Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, Ceausescu... 'far'left', just stop it with the 'the left creates monsters too' bs. People who use the 'communism' schtick to justify why they should be dictators are not 'far left', they're simply opportunist thugs. Similarly Communism isn't 'far left', its just another way of hoodwinking the masses. I'm surprised you left Hitler out with his National 'Socialism' in your tripe.
Firstly I think the article is remiss for not listing the Windscale/Sellafield (not letting a name change hide it is important) nuclear incident. Also lacking is coverage of some of the contamination caused by previous poorly though out adventures in nuclear power (in my opinion driven mainly by decisions taken more with an eye to production of nuclear weapons then with power production)
With that we clearly need more nukes, just a safer kind and one that can also use the by-products of earlier nuclear projects as fuel, without enabling more weapons production.
The problem as I see it is both that that we don't have the technology mastered, and the political will is lacking both from a Greenpeace contaminated pr standpoint and vested interests in the nuclear industry wanting nothing more than a rent seeking (for them) solution. See for example the quite ridiculous attempts to finish the current nuclear power projects underway in this country.
This article is rather credulous in stating both of those lines. As what tends to play out in the system of government that they use in the larger China means that Xi will have 'allies' and 'friends' to whom he is beholden.
This is without mentioning the ultimate beneficiaries of all the factories overseen by their military.
This is also overlooking the endemic corruption that their system is 'lubricated' with.
Ahh idiot manglers who won't back down even though their idea is proven to be useless.
The world is full of them, and sadly full of idiot manglers higher up who fall for their nonsense despite those at the sharp end telling the truth....
Just because it precludes free lunches by people taking and redstributing it without granting the users of the redistribution the same rights as the person redistributing it does not make it a problem for interoperability. you can have your cake and it it with the gpl, just no cherry picking. :p
I would have to agree. Intel are unsurprisingly in the Risc-V game only for what they can get out of it. I suppose the fact that they are not a charity and want to maintain long term dominance of at least one sector of computing is all the explanation they need.
It was good for twitter because they get to actually have their terms of service adhered to.
Ancillary to that it's good for everyone else because the orange buffoon is a dangerous individual that should not be able to freely (further) subvert the society from which he has benefitted (ie manipulated and damaged) over the years. Bad actors don't get a free pass to act badly on other peoples' platforms just because you think that he should.
Make sure to remove any incriminating codes of any description to cover youre tracks
(rule 2 is to put an 'old' asset tag on the device insinuating that it has been about for ages, cost peanuts, and was sent foc as an afterthought by a vendor with some other kit 'to get it out of their inventory as they had been sitting on it for ages')
Indeed. This is the reason that ads and any third party/untrusted javascript will basically forever remain blocked here. You want to have your website visitors view ads on your page? Fine, then host the ad images yourself and take responsibility.
Third party adslingers are the scourge of the internet.
That second sentence is telling if true. The first one is somewhat less damning imo as I'm not sure what training regime would make up for the deliberate omission of vital information about their clearly poorly thought outsoftware cludge, and the fact that the driving sensor had zero redundancy.
The second one points to someone somewhere deliberately withholding information from the guy. I'm not sure how a corporate bribe to the FAA shields individuals from criminal charges when this guy inevitably turns States evidence. I wonder whether he has any documents pointing to someone somewhere inducing him in some manner to not blow the whistle when he found out.
Is this not a symptom of the fundamental incompatability between philosophies regarding file operations on files that are being referenced in some way or other by other processes in a *nix environment, and the philosophy regarding the same in windows?
NTFS is designed with the latter philosophy in mind, use within an environment using the former philosophy is bound to cause some wrinkles...
And that right there may well have been why they did not attract more developers to help write their code for them.
I wonder if they were hoping for a 'free lunch' scenario where they could effectively outsource significant development of the codebase and then close source it once it had achieved critical mass...
I have to call bs on your bothsiderism, talk about false equivalency. You'r 'cancellors' quip betrays your true feelings. Hey, whilst I am talking to you, I have some neo nazi propaganda posters I wish to display on your property for an appropriate fee. Saying no because of the content means that you're into 'cancel culture' does it? Private business, private platform. Their rules, or hit the road.
The quantity of urine needed and the purported efficacy of the test with the low numbers of results should lead to maximum caution.
The tone of this article smacks of shades of Theranos.
Those that ignore history have an unfortunate trait of repeating the mistakes of said history.
Care to cite a source on that assertion? I seriously doubt that the US government does any such thing on a per capita basis. Health care in the us is predominately private, for profit, and with a marked cost barrier for entry for all to many of their citizens. THe US health care industry does indeed cost more per capita than spent in the uk, only you have to include the for profit element.
