As a grain, it is poisonous to me, as I am diabetic. However, the fish, chicken, pork, or beef are not. I can eat them as I choose.

Indeed. Most people forget that the response was to "Why do you know about Russia's foreign actions"... 'Because I can see Russia' is effectively what was said. It really harkens back to much of the Republicans&#x27

Well, This is AirBNB's own moment of "Gig Economy goes against established law" like Uber and HomeJoy have done. Hoteliers and traditional rental agencies are not to discriminate on a list of things (now including sexual orie

I actually do, yes. All of my machines at home and online are all Linux machines, one of. Some of them have graphical UIs for various reasons. With that, all I need do is include the -X forward in my ssh config, and I can run X apps and dis

But it's not convergence. It's making the look and feel, and some APIs similar enough someone could target multiple machines. I want convergence. Real bloody convergence. I want to hook my laptop's /dev and /sys , p

Maybe we should do a HN meetup, Bloomington IN style :) Or you can come on over to our hackerspace, Bloominglabs. We have open houses every Wednesday from 7-10P, no matter what day that falls on :)

Maybe some of them are. Ive also found some that are crap. I have a tendency to pull on things like ATM covers, credit card slots, and the like. And that's because we have lots of skimmers that are found at local gas stations and place

I'm not terribly shocked. Most communication happens either at serial, SPI, or i2c busses. If it's cars, CAN. And if you can plug in a wire somewhere, you can damage or pwn it. Most things don't have security, other than soft

Indeed, I get the sentiment. But in South-Central Indiana (Bloomington), we see Krogers with self-checkouts. How Krogers uses these, is that they only keep them open after 10p. And 1 clerk deals with 6 registers. Even if someone is being sl

Absolutely. And there are many a jobs that can allow a great amount of destruction on the sly, and cheaply. I'll refrain about mentioning exactly what - but many of us are engineers. It would not be difficult to get some ideas.

Well, if the store isn't paying for it, and isn't discounting for working for the store, then yes it's "Free". People are just too stupid to see it that way, and are willing to be flesh-automation with no cost.

Or extra BIG ASS FRIES... (Carl's Jr from Idiocracy) ObOnTopic: Cashiers are doing a very automatable job.. Like, it's done already to good effect. And if you do like our Krogers does at night, you dont have a choice to not use a

I wonder how long it will be for newsprint media companies to use this to "secure" their websites so that Adblockers cannot process the 'encrypted but you can't see' data?

Ah, that must be something new. Because when I read all the available documentation, I only found command-line manual JSON queries available. I stand corrected on the GUI side of things.

Long and short of it: Its an IPFS clone by a private entity, with a blockchain for a DNS like namespace. And its monetized, and seemingly badly. Large chunks of the core code just aren't completes. No GUI. Low amount of users although

And the converse is... "Im sorry. We cannot hire yo for employment at this time because you are male." Yeah... That would be a lawyers fieldday.

It sees an easy way to fix this is to scan the report for sha1 tags, and put them on the stack. Then compare the next to the list. If match is found to be duplicated, refuse to load or load in degraded state with warning bells.

I see a pretty bad course of events. "Lay inside this fMRI machine for an accurate brainscan if you are lying, and image retrieval of the time in question. Or you will be put in jail until you do." And I also seem to remember a ce

Ah, true that. But I'm looking at another probable reason.. Ohio, rural, ~400 people in county. Yeah, I'd be willing to bet money on "Living while black". It's not common, especially in areas like SV and high-tech a

True that.. What we find many a time, is that townships and cities have an extraordinary amount of power to cause problems for landowners. We all think only HoA's can do this... and that's blatantly not true. What exactly is a nui

Yeah, and have the labor board give them a "stern talking to"? Not worth your time, nor return on time invested.

I really don't care how they run their business. Not my problem. What is my problem is: I started watching X-Files for the first time (yeah, never go around to it for the initial airing). Started watching in late February. And starti

And not only that, but also removing their existing collections of videos and replacing it with their "Made by Netflix" shows that mostly amount to shovelware. I'm about ready to drop them, just like they've dropped MASH

Primarily because it's a semi-proprietary protocol, with "monetization scheme", and backed by a single org. And, also, there's not much interest... If there was, then they'd dog-food and have the UI inside the proto

Well.. This lbry, from what I gather from their "Quickstart", is a IPFS-like clone, with a hacked on blockchain cryptocurrency that you pay them to access certain content or hold names (or whatnot). And it's being run as a bu

And I look at these 'apps' and I think: "Usenet did it better, and semi-anonymous, and ubiquitous."
