Lockheed Martin just doesn't want to be in the "video game" business. They'll still gladly take your money, though.

Well, the country that dropped the first two just so happened to be the only country that had them in the first place. So that's entirely irrelevant.

It's a shame that it will probably take many people getting caught up in this law over multiple years before it's thrown out as blatantly unconstitutional.

Unnecessarily stopping at a floor for a few seconds is minor to literally everyone riding in a public elevator. But yeah, I'm sure that at all of the various elevator companies, over all of the years that elevators have had electronic

I stayed at a hotel that used this. It's a very nice, efficient system. Much better than everybody cramming into the next elevator that arrives and selecting a bunch of floors.

Call it whatever you want, but the fact remains that the vast majority of gun killings are done with handguns. Yes, you can point to certain events (like Las Vegas) that would only be possible with a rifle, but it still doesn't chang

I don't even know what "ability to spray bullets in front of several people" means, but the Las Vegas massacre didn't happen in a school or grocery store so it's entirely irrelevant to the point I was making.

Access to weapons in the US is tighter than it ever has been. This stuff wasn't happening in the 50s-70s when mail-order catalogs sold rifles with zero background checks, and kids routinely brought them to school.

Our "barbaric policies" do not allow Canadian citizens to purchase firearms. So it's already guaranteed that US laws have been broken.

The vast majority of shootings are done with handguns. There is nothing specific to semi-automatic rifles that make them deadlier in a school or grocery store.

Apple would have to be complicit. And at that point, why tie it to an app that almost nobody will download? Just build it into iOS/iCloud and call it a day.

All of the ones I've seen specifically say "RECORDING IN PROGRESS" on the screen. Could they be lying? Sure, but I doubt they are.

If that was the case, then it's been an abject failure. China owns Africa.

This company was explicitly sanctioned, which means American companies are not allowed to do business with them. So yes, it's really a complaint. Sure we can't catch everything, but we can at least stop the obvious stuff like this

A state isn't supposed to do any of that on it's own. Congress is supposed to pass laws regarding those sorts of things, not just create an agency in the Executive branch and let it run wild.

Why would you assume that the fact that someone is a programmer indicates to you anything at all about literally any other aspect of their life or views? It seems to me that you just built up your own little fantasy world, and are shocked t

The court can't just overturn laws. Cases have to be brought to them first. So your argument of "why is X bad law allowed to stand when they just overturned Y?" doesn't hold water.

Shure SE215 and the default tip it comes with. I can only speculate on why the IEM is better, but I suspect it comes down to the tip material creating a better, more substantial seal. The outer shell is also physically larger, and that may

My imagination can get pretty wild, but I can't even begin to imagine how they could do that without severely bending the definitions of "Coinbase user data" and "public sources" to the point of breaking.
