The elderly and maybe the very rural. I have a tough time thinking there is anyone rural enough who would not go for satellite internet though. Satellite TV is pretty standard in the country.

Unless you are a founder of a unicorn startup. I used to hang out with one of the GitHub founders before it was a thing - he was engineering director when MSFT bought them out and now is a billionaire (single digit billions but still): ht

Let's hope. Our "wars" post WWII, as bad as they were, were nowhere near the nightmares of the first two world wars.

Yep. Messed me up too when I learned that. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Declaration_of_war_by_the_Un... Matches the last treason charges too. WWII was the last time anyone was charged (and convicted) of treason.

No. Because we are not at war, and have not been since WWII. Treason requires a war.

Thank you for demonstrating you have not looked up the definition of Treason in the US legal system. https://constitution.congress.gov/browse/essay/artIII-S3-C1-...

Fun to think about, but think about this: as soon as we have the tech to start catching sight of these things, we start seeing them yearly. While that does not automatically suggest that they are not technological, they are not likely to b

I hate touchpads as a whole. When did we stop doing laptop trackballs? (I know, I know, the last laptop with a trackball is able to legally drink by now)

Seems like a United issue. I have been flying American and others lately, and it feels like very manageable hoofing. Nothing compares of course to traffic on 90/355/190.

Nailed it. And after our relationship with China sours, we are going to need cheap manufacturing. Paraphrasing an article I read the day the funding got cut, "Until today, America was a blessing on the lips of every person in Africa&

I too mostly fly out of O'Hare. Once I got global entry, I was a reliable 45-60 minutes before wheels up guy. I have never had Precheck take longer than 15 minutes.

Also: the human body does not want to lose weight. You get more hungry after exercise. People also are bad at calorie counting because they forget about so many sources of calories (milk/sugar in coffee, snacks, etc). Let's say y

In fairness, most people I knew with Windows phones worked for MSFT. But a few (the ones I talked to the most) were just people interested in the Windows ecosystem. One was running Windows Home Server. Those folks all swore that everythin

The people I knew with a Windows phone said it worked awesome for them, the desktop mode. Samsung DeX is not bad! It is not as good as a real desktop, but it will do in a pinch.

This is a nationwide phenomena. Many articles have been written on it. My own small town on the edge of the Chicago suburbs has a group of zealots that protest drag shows all over the suburban area (always small towns on the edge of the bu

Peculiar right? A well funded agency would likely be able to develop a sensor package which tracks objects with multiple cameras with various zoom lenses and spectrums (IR/UV/etc.) and also radio. I think tech is becoming so good

Facebook as well. They responded to the criticism of people leaving their platform because the feed was all garbage and no friend updates by making a friends only feed feature you could only enable in the app.

I am not advocating any course in particular. But I will observe that when such treatments become available, such conditions become a marker of lower socioeconomic class and the people with the conditions get treated less well by society. T
