In other news, no other goods are being sold because there are warehouses stuffed full of them. Ugh.

The article doesn't actually say that, it differentiates between the handset business that was sold and the remainder Motorola Mobility unit which holds the patents: "Google acquired Motorola Mobility in 2012 for $12.5 billion, an

If you thinking this is a "kumbaya" moment, think again. They've merely determined that the best they can do is litigate each other into a stalemate, or that they don't have a enough of a competitive overlap to warrant a

"the fact that every textual conversation you've ever had is logged" That's patently untrue. What are you basing that on besides your own paranoia?

If the NSA is targeting you, or you think they're targeting you, then your email provider is the least of your problems.

Google paranoia deserves its own entry in the DSM V.

I don't believe in dirty tricks like you describe, but it's my solemn belief that you're not negotiating unless your goal is to "fuck the other person over," or aim for an unreasonably good deal. Whether you get it

Do you really think that the Feds "manipulations" have been clumsy? They've managed to consistently hit about 1% inflation in a strongly deflationary environment. They've done an outstanding job in that respect.

Except none of those things are true. Bitcoin is just a tinfoil hat combined with a prepper mentality, or libertarian wishful thinking. The first 3 things you list can happen to bitcoin since bitcoin is just another currency. The idea that

I remember reading Fear and Loathing when I was 14 and thinking it was the work of a genius.

Is there any hard data as to the quality of Google Maps versus OSM?

That's entirely misleading. The MAC address is used if you autoconfigure IPv6, it's not required. Also you can enable privacy by requesting your host to generate a random host identifier. http://en.wikipedia.org/wi

There's also less handling: Amazon would be loading its own trucks that go directly to the customer in cities with warehouses nearby, compared to UPS who have at least one sort step.

I live in SF and pay myself about $25K a year. I'm self funded on about $150K cash (since 2010) and live very comfortably. I haven't taken VC money and I have no plans to. My question is: why do people insist on playing this game

They got off lightly. What they really didn't want is for the truth about their repugnant behavior to come out. They broke the law so obviously, and have already essentially admitted it to the Justice Dept. I don't know why the la

Of course, nothing wrong with creating a narrative, and of course the same facts can be seen different ways. But the point is you use the FACTS. I've seen too much journalism, especially in tech, which has scant regard for the truth an

Why not just call it what it is: sloppy journalism? Ignoring the facts to further a pre-determined narrative would more commonly be called a lie.

"This is not the bubble you're looking for..." "Move along..." The VC can have a strong influence on the weak minded.

Plus $25 shipping. Ugh. Also no gigabit ethernet is a massive fail. Just wait for a cheap board with a CPU in the AMD A1100 series, it seriously rocks.

I think the point is that you sometimes can't deliver it, so you give them a slightly less general or idealized abstraction to work with. The "head in the sand" algorithm isn't always reliable.

We really do. I don't think the UK understand how it's viewed on the continent, and probably never has.

Ok, since the subtle approach isn't working I'll spell it out for you in big letters: ALL OF THOSE THINGS I LISTED WILL IDENTIFY YOU. Having government ID is irrelevant.
868.
by nutjob2 13y ago
You miss my point entirely. If you have an address you have a unique identifier which is shared widely, usually publicly. You therefore you can be easily identified.

What a joke. So you have no DL, no passport, you don't have any bank accounts or credit cards, no internet account or phone account, no national health insurance account, and no address? Thats great! Since you're not required to
