Why would Amazon have to do anything about it? Taking care of its citizens is the government's responsibility.

There's nothing sudden at all. They effectively lost their independence 300 years ago but the drive for independence has always been there (along, famously, with a few other parts of modern Spain). They have their own language, their o

I actually understand why: from chatting with my US coworkers whenever they visit us, I found something that I find fascinating: grocery shopping is something that only happens at most once a week, usually less often. Because supermarkets a

That's partially incorrect. While XMR is very resistant to ASICs and not very GPU friendly, a high-end consumer GPU will still mine over 2x as much as a high-end consumer CPU. edit: of course because the majority of users have integrat

Not for XMR: a good 6+ core cpu will mine 1/3 to 1/2 of what a 1080ti mines using the native miners.

It'd be fine. You would do that, I would do that and most people here would do that. The vast majority of users would not, it's just like adblockers: only a minority uses them.

That only shows more people trying drugs out, it doesn't show a total drugs consumed amount (by weight/dosage or similar volume metrics) increase.

To be clear, drugs aren't legalized in Portugal; they're decriminalized. That means that traffic and selling is still a crime but consumption and possession of small amounts (there's a table listing those) is not a crime.

The most notorious large-scale, well studied example of complete decriminalization, Portugal, shows the opposite to be true[0]. [0] http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/portugal-decr...

That's nothing compared to Haargoth's damage, back in 2009 or Kartoon's. Hell we've had single dudes do single corp thefts for more than that.

There's an excellent book that covers some of the larger conflicts between ~2004 and 2009 called Empires of Eve[0]. As someone who was intimately involved with nearly everything the book describes, I recommend it. [0] http://

The same is true for any IC car whose engine is on. It's the alternator that generates the power used; it's not taken from the battery. IC cars even have the bonus that heating the cabin is effectively free, no extra battery drain

What's relevant is that this wouldn't have happened with any of the other semi-autonomous systems from other brands because they force the user to be keenly aware. Had it been the same for all systems then the argument could be ma

If someone is willing to do that to you, odds are that they're also willing to apply a crowbar to your limbs should you fail to comply with unlocking the phone.

Having to enter a 25+ character random alphanumerical password every time you need to use your phone isn't anywhere near acceptable for modern usage expectations. Hell, it's not even acceptable for laptop and desktop computers. Su
