Yeah this is a mess. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constitution_of_the_United_K... Sounds like it's time for a revolution and rewrite.

This was my immediate concern as well. But they addressed it.

Then what's the legal recourse / precedent for handling illegal votes? If it's not codified, then it sounds like a failure of the government structure and charter

Agreed. If she's offering something different each time then you can possibly call it a negotiation. But the identical terms / proposition each time is a farce. I'm of the opinion you guys should get the Empire back together.

Oh yes. Giving the population a direct vote on anything is wildly dangerous and unpredictable unless you're Switzerland.

You don't get to keep having do overs until enough of your opposition has died to get the result you want. Might as well just start banning "racists" and other undesirables from the polls outright if that's the path you

The chance to "petition" was before the vote happened in 2016. You've made your bed, time to sleep in it.

There's nothing wrong with a high profit margin. I'm all for it. I'd gladly overpay for Apple products if they were bleeding edge tech because I love the touchpad. Give me optane + m.2 + SSD, huge RAM, lots of ports, etc. But

Really, this release was either written by a bot or a non-native English speaker. > From consumers to pros alike, users will notice their iMac is faster for everyday tasks all the way up to the most demanding pro workloads. This is not

Fusion with optane would be acceptable. Or even m.2. but not SSD and HDD at the prices they want.

Cook is doing exactly what he's best at, which is what you said. Optimizing every last cent out of a process. Great for the bottom line, but unlike in a supply chain, your cash source (customers) will eventually want something differen

> ...ideal for pros with graphics-intensive workloads... Did a bot write this? No one uses "pros" in writing like this to refer to professionals.

Again, unless I've missed a statement, we don't know if Boeing has tested for this case internally. This case being "pilots untrained and unfamiliar with the MCAS system recovering from a catastrophic systems failure / e

After the Lion Air crash it wouldn't have been unreasonable to assume pilot error. Almost all recent accidents have been pilot error. I read somewhere that the sensor was misreading by 20° and Lion should have noticed. Should Boeing ha

Probably soon. If only because of digital payments pretty much phasing out cash.

Same way you verify if the person driving a car is the owner. They're legally responsible for the vehicle unless they can prove they weren't at the wheel. But the real question is, why do you need to verify the person in the first

It becomes mandatory and the "social credit" system follows shortly thereafter. You stop being an individual and become a cog in the national machine.

Now I've got a lot of off color jokes about IoT burqas in my head.

Plausible. Rfid or some other pingable ID marker. You'll still get a fight about something physically visible though. Too much Jew with a gold star connotation.

This is going to lead to a great episode of British political theatre. The burqa is an effective counter measure. Full body, with a mesh eye opening. The UK is either going to have to ban the burqa in public, at the price of being called an

Oh I know. He was a spy and got what he deserved. But until then, the US public hadn't really seen blood spilled in Vietnam. The government and media censored and spun the hell out of the news coming home. The best way to prevent propa

He's a terrorist, he intended to terrorize. Looking him in the eye and telling him to fuck off is the best thing you can do.

I've changed my mind jimjimjim. I accept the argument that it is propaganda. But to me, it's utility as documentation of a tragedy outweighs it's utility as propaganda.

So click "hide" and carry on. Or Twitter can implement a "do not autoplay sensitive content" feature.

And I don't think it should be forced in people's faces either. But it should be available for those who want to view it.

And I'm not saying it should be played in time square. But hiding it from the "normal" parts of the internet doesn't do anyone any favors.
