> Once it became trivially easy to obtain food, water, and shelter I would argue that the average human being doesn't consider these things easy to acquire. For society it COULD be easy to distribute these things if we…
It's also inconsequential for everyone who has a data cap on their phone plan. Running out of data 20% sooner isn't a win for people who can't afford a luxury plan.
I use it for as few things as possible and it does them very well. I only want notifications for things that may be immediately relevant (phone call, text msg, calendar event reminders) so when I walk away from my phone…
The 1 million number I've seen floating around for a while was just for the Iraq war, not even including the other wars/conflicts we are involved in. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-iraq-deaths-survey/iraq-c...
I bet the people who run astroturfing campaigns on Reddit have plenty of data on how effective it is. Wither that data is publicly available...
Untie a person's ability to survive from their employment status. If we had universal healthcare and basic income then the necessity of most of the employment laws would cease to exist.
> The problem isn't the court, it's the law. >The judge said he disregarded Weadock’s testimony. “I don’t think anybody in that courtroom understood what a restore disk was,” Lundgren said. Oh, I think there was a…
Also "Bitcoin traders have been less than pleased with the realization they have to pay taxes on any of their earnings" isn't a fair statement. I have spent a lot of time reading on crypto currency forums this last…
If your debit cards info gets stolen, they take YOUR money and the bank may not necessarily be in as much of a hurry to get it bank. In the mean time, you have no cash, maybe for days or weeks. If your credit card info…
I think your wildly over dramatic metaphor is still wildly optimistic in assuming that the explosions are already done. I agree the fallout will continue, but I seriously doubt we have seen the worst of how bad this can…
They said discovered AND reported, not just discovered. It is entirely possible someone discovered it much earlier and didn't report, but we won't ever know if evidence is never found.
How far do you think a hand held battery powered radio can transmit it's signal? Unless you are talking about a HF radio using skywave propagation (to include some maths & carefully positioning an antenna that might be…
Yes there is. At least with frequency assignment. There are very strict policies that any frequency usage within 50 miles of an international border must be approved by the appropriate authority on both sides. The rules…
I went to school and worked for a while studying spectrum management. It boggles my mind to this day that drones get in the way of fire fighting and emergency services because an obvious first step world be to allow…
Neither of these take place during peaceful times, but both of the TV shows (Clone Wars & Rebels) have taken the time to cover the rest of what you mentioned. They may be somewhat aimed at a younger audience but by no…
Does it need to be a whole septate machine? If I run Linux as my daily driver and a Windows install on a separate drive/partition for gaming only, then I'll only be exposed to any potential risks for this when I boot to…
I used to have a work computer that would get a bsod when someone other then myself logged in. I took a knife and scraped all the letters off the keyboard. It solved my problem in the sense that no one else tried…
Prisoners in California are being used as firefighters. It's not an easy or safe job and I'm pretty sure they aren't doing it just to pass time.
The VA offers mail delivery for prescription medications. I imagine it has something to do with it being a single payer system, & they have to look for any chance to optimize in the whole medical food chain instead of…
There would be a lot more jobs if we readjusted the way we look at work. Lower full time to 30 hours a week, eliminate "free overtime" salaries, require vacation time, maternal/paternal leave, worker owned co-ops…
