Seems these days the only cross-partisan agreement is resistance to Flock and Axon. People don't want Big Brother. Politicians unironically trying to positively refer to them as an enhanced Big Brother is completely tone deaf. And we k

Naw. I think they'll sell every single one they're able manufacture for the next couple years. The pre-order list will probably fill most of those.

If they don't know they're being quarantined, there's no reason for them to find a way around their block. They'll eventually tucker themselves out and move on to whatever their internet equivalent of burning ants with a

If you click the link and read the article, you'll see a lot of words that justify the title: BBC Verify has previously established through satellite imagery, verified videos and expert analysis that the area near the school was hi

Surely the difference between location tracking (that still requires a warrant for the government to get access to, thus Stingrays) and the intimate visual processing and tagging that is derived from the likes of smart glasses is self expla

You're making me really want to start a rewatch. It's shocking how few people have seen this show, let along watched it. Part of that probably has to do with how inaccessible it is on streaming. It's only readily available on

Outside of simply not being true, the sentiment of what you're saying isn't much different than: "Essentially all software is augmented with Stack Overflow now, or if not, built with technology or on platforms that is."

> I really wish the computer science degrees and even online courses spent like 30 mins on the history of computer science. Completely agree here. This would fall under the umbrella of liberal arts, which a lot of CS-only folks seem to f

Ah, I see how you perceive this situation. You think the Democrats manufactured a police state by flooding America with undocumented immigrants in order to get Republicans to go full gestopo in order to fix it. Some 5D chess move where the

Unfortunately the world is far too globalized for tariffs like these to ever be a good solution. There isn't another niche guitar pedal hardware manufacturer that does the same thing as on in Belgium.

Nothing Kimmel said in the quote you provided is untrue. His statement is about their actions in response to the event, not anything to do with the actual sentiment of the shooter.

I don't think it's fair to pretend the only options humans have are the extremes of private and state ownership. Greed and the weight of capitalism under rail expansion in the US completely obliterated at least 15-20k years worth

Well, if it helps you feel better, the downvotes are probably because it's not a No True Scotsman fallacy. And yours are probably due to your endorsement of it and whining about "lefties".

I knew a family that exploited how hard it was to cancel by attempting to cancel every month and getting another free month. iirc, they did this for years until broadband was available.

A great example of this is a scent I really like--Santal 33. The way everything mixes together, there's a dill pickle overtone that some people are really receptive to. I can smell it if I actively think about dill, but it's not t

I've also noticed that over the years those are the candidates who are most unable to find a job. And having interviewed a fair number of candidates, the number of passionate devs out there is smaller than you'd expect.

Babylon Bee notoriously punches down and is the epitome of the "one joke" trope. They're an uninspired impersonation of The Onion, with a clear political purpose.
