   This is something obvious I had not considered. Good point!

   As I understand it, ME is used to remotely control the processor like in a datacenter. If a datacenter is buying hundreds of thousands of these it makes sense to have it on by default so their people don't have to go in and turn anyth

   He tried to have 5 people professionally executed. He broke the law and facilitated others breaking the law because he felt laws took away his personal liberties. He is incompatible with this society and he's dangerous..

   I'm trying to get my insurance discounted on my car. I should slap a "written in Rust" sticker on it. Safe driver discount?

   This seems like parallel construction. The dude sounds dirty, but it doesn't matter. 1) Why was there a cop watching him leave his driveway? This sounds like the easiest made-up charge where there is no evidence to prove it DIDN&#x27

   Exactly as this fine person illustrated. :-)

   I had not considered that planning cities like this was meant to be community-hostile, but I can easily see how this is meant to breed a dependence on corporate solutions. This has the taste of conspiracy, but I do believe you're right

   We need to increase participation with ghost consumers to stave off attacks like this? :p

   I love node - it's a really irresponsible way of programming. The objective is to make as much the concern of someone else as possible. "How do I know what an array is? I'm just writing this app that works with arrays..&qu

    I wonder where we're supposed to go from here. After 9/11 I worried about having something as convenient as Google Maps. Now we have more real-time surveillance and going outside I know I will be tracked and collected and bought

    It's hard to understand everything that a shell encompasses (at least for me). It's a language interpreter with a repl. The language is designed to make running programs, working with output, passing arguments, etc... easy. It&

    I love how you worded this and illustrated your point. I think you're exactly right. I joined Facebook to be connected to the people I wanted to see, not people they want me to see. I barely log in anymore for this reason.

    I would find it hilarious if they put these data centers on foreign soil so information can't be legally retrieved in some circumstances.

    I am not trying to over-simplify, but should I stop buying goods and services because the taxes taken on these transactions benefit the military? The dividing line varies from person to person, of course. I think most would agree that impr

    I thought you could "replace" your DNA with a bone marrow transplant? I am most definitely not a scientist.

    I wholeheartedly agree. I hope we can establish RISC-V for embedded stuff first, and that it does not stay there.

    But you don’t even see it in like an unofficial libinput patch done by someone who is hobby-passionate. I’ve never had a good trackpad experience outside of Apple and I refuse to believe it hasn’t been reversed.. It can’t be patents, can

    1) LOVE 16:10/8:5. Currently I have a 3240x2160 panel in my HP Spectre x360. I WISH it were 3240x2400. I WANT 2400p PANELS. 2) I'm far from an expert on this: I don't know why it's taken more than a decade to figure

    This kind of reminds me of the mass surveillance debate. Without transparency we can't know for sure if targeted ads are worth the billions being invested. Empirically I'd be inclined to believe they do effectively pair users wi

    I don't think we should fire borderline autistic coders. I agree with you that it's not always the best approach to take to force coders to interact in a shared space. I used to enjoy something I had with a friend where we would

    I definitely agree that it's a balancing act between "find the right person to pair with this other person" and "I can't get anything done, this person is only giving me irrelevant information". Often times it

    I definitely learn things from people I don't expect to teach me anything. I'm used to pair programming being frustrating, but if you can put egos aside you pick up on different ways of thinking and way more exposure to life&#x2F

    I'm the last one to stay "it's for the children". I don't think mass surveillance can be rolled back though I will continue to support changing legislation that harms us. There are positives to consider if we must

    I definitely feel like we're missing positive opportunities for mass surveillance. Things like being able to recognize someone in cardiac arrest, or who is at risk for a stroke. Someday mass surveillance will help as much as it hurts
