You'll probably change your grooming habits, hairstyle, and similar to be attractive to who you want to be. The bot didn't just go for fixed features.

The federal govt is expected to resolve disputes between states in the Constitution. Waterways and pollution clearly falls under that. The federalist papers also expect the federal govt. to offer some protection from more local governments

I don't get why they would bother actually using a controlled website to actually distribute malware. It seems more valuable to just sit on it to collect user information. Eventually on of those websites will also do something unsoun

Or families sets are currently 4 generations old (with each one adding some). In some cases they were stored terribly like in a garage. Even with a mix of the newer set types it's not that bad since instructions rarely follow everythi

We're talking about radio in the article. Which means we're talking about a very small subset of possible life.

It's really hard to work with people who "can't" quit their job and utterly hate it. Would just mean that everyone is just far unhappier than usual in the work place. Frankly the worst thing is that it just means that p

Reads a little like "we need people to sell shovels and gold pans to, while simultanously keeping the young distracted enough to stay out of our politics".

Even simple things like default passwords being the first few numbers of the products serial number wouldn't be that bad.

Someday we're going to get a WE/Lifetime thriller/suspense movie where families in some dead end murder case find their suspect through the "people you may know" feature, and are completely ignored by police "f

Recent monopoly enforcement in the US has been based on damage to the consumer. So it'll probably be Europe that tries to rein in Amazon.

Tons of engineering firms are really bad at names. My favorite was the big bold red letters of PMS (power management solutions). Though they seem to have gone to blue now http://www.pmspower.com

Ubuntu mostly since I haven't had a reason to change, and it got me to try it when it had boot/run from USB. And it's just on every server hosting service.

Confirming your DC suspicion. Quite a few jobs like construction and manufacturing are on a 6-2 or 6-6 schedule depending on their hours.

Savings on server hosting caused me to start using Linux. Then making every possible mistake when following tutorials caused enough exposure to actually learn something.

This is one of those things that could get EU regulators in a tizzy. Since at one point you would have had to suffer through an ad bloated website to get the same thing.

Were you expecting bots to have more free speech rights than humans?

It probably has, it's just that after it has been exploited it becomes a default part of everythings sensory kit.

That is actually interesting research. Basically they're trying to make noise on fiber useful. As for the implications and use case, not particulary thrilled. Though maybe it'll eventually have last mile providers wanting to act

Amazon's own data centers are tiny (compared to most) that taking one out would almost be a waste of time. Even one of their large colocations would probably be a waste. If you wanted that type of destruction, and be noticed, you woul

Cloud providers, web hosts, and similar all provide pretty acceptable ads on average (soundless, videoless), while also tending to be a high bidder. So sometimes I would use the open all option on a bookmark folder that I shoved a bunch of

Still getting TONS of car advertising, after I bought one 8 months ago (when I see it). seriously car ads are what pushed me to JavaScript off by default since their ads are almost as rude as porn ads. Even the normal advertising reset tri

It's interesting watching HN get indignant when a company treats them the same way their idol companies treat everyone else. A lot of grab all data, track everything, and hide the creepiness in fine print type companies.

I would imagine that if such measures passed, states would pick up the slack with tons of new taxes, each with very different rules and laws. Many many more people to lobby, who are also forced to care far more since people who actually vo

A little glad I missed out on this when it was fadish (even unused ear piercing can get males in trouble for being out of regs in the military). Though it did for a while get me interested in senses we lose because we don't have words

How much value has Google and similar created with GPS. It slowed the need for other countries to put their own up. The satellites were not a secret Their encryption scheme was probably already cracked, so might as well open it anyways.

Was hoping it was some sort of 3 letter agency. Instead just the Pakistani prime minister trying to hide profiteering and tax evasion. You'd think that hiring a professional forgerist would be a cost of doing business.
