This article is poorly worded and does a poor job of forwarding their argument. The overall tone of the article is amateurish and feels more like an article you might find arguing against vaccinations. The claims presented in the article ar

I'm sure the downvotes are because the people that are firm believers in poisoning the environment with sprays are the same ones that refuse to believe that little Fluffy needs to stay inside because its a relentless animal killing mac

The security on this is actually a lot better than most cameras--all the traffic is SSL using trusted client certs. To get into the traffic they had to tear the device apart and extract the cert. After that they could MITM the traffic betwe

My dad until recently has bought new vehicles every few years in cash. Probably the most cash I've ever seen at once was when we bought a chunk of property in cash-we took a paper grocery sack full of cash to the real estate agency. Yo

The Detroit Auto Show (and most others) are dead, they just haven't stopped moving yet. Year after year the displays have shrunk, and the focus has turned to the LA auto show, and Chicago. I think we'll see the show circuit collap

Getting Foxconn to Wisconsin is going to end up being a ridiculous boondoggle. They’ll reap the rewards of massive tax cuts and Wisconsin will never see any upside.

On almost any machine with MEBx you can just mash the boot options key right after power on and while on a properly locked down machine you won't be able to change the boot order you will be able to select MEBx.

I don't think buying/selling women was a communist cornerstone. The reason I say this is a capitalist endeavor is the recognition of an asset (the daughter), the want to see the most return (as large of a bride price as possible),
