Yeah, all we need is that haptic suit, and then book had all that stuff about his exercise regimen. Now software engineers really can live in our own world - maybe I should say even more.

What are the privacy implications if you switch the search to use duck duck go or something else in Chrome? I kind of naively thought that would give you privacy but I need more information.

They said hw3 will work, but not quite as well as hw4. The whole set of promises is just a mess. I think the strategy is string them out until the cars reach end of life and they avoid having to pay millions or people their 10k or whatever

Can you elaborate on that? I can get a credit card reader for almost nothing that connects to my cell phone in the us from stripe or whatever for a business. In this case, for outdoor equipment and open to the public, it has to be hardened,

omniglottal, I wish you'd comment further about address info changing. Like the other responder to you, third parties can ask to update address info. It's absolutely not conspiratorial. Can we agree it's not a conspiracy?

I don't think it's fine. When I worked at Google, we got updated address information for businesses periodically and we had an official process that applied updates to the data we had stored. It was actually a colossal pain in the

Oh I thank you for the extra information. I think he could have sabotaged the financing if you tried hard. So he agreed to pay for 44 billion odd dollars for Twitter no matter what? That's a very questionable deal.

In my very first comment I said that not all people are like that. Yet sadly, to this day, I constantly do meet people making casual racist comments when I go to the south. And when I say the south, I include the state where I was born whic

It's because he makes constant clearly incorrect scientific claims, says conspiratorial things about vaccines that are obviously wrong. We haven't hidden the deaths of millions of people who got the COVID vaccine. We just haven&#x

He wasn't really forced to buy it. There was a $1 billion buyout option of the contract apparently. I believe he paid 44 billion it, when it was clearly worth half that after the stock lost value, so he chose to waste 20 billion instea

If there was reliable evidence that China had created a coronavirus, it would have been widely disseminated because it's the fantasy of the Republicans in the US to put it on China, and if not China then put it on Dr. Fauci. But it doe

There was no conspiracy about the sacklers and the opioid epidemic. It was obviously true the first article that was written about it. On Hunter Biden's laptop, somehow there's terrible evidence but the Republicans in the house ar

Addresses of things change on Google maps. They fix problems and find issues and it's entirely possible that an address changing means something was updated. Or there's an international address conspiracy that Google is part of, y

If you didn't meet those people, then either you're ignorant yourself -(with all due respect), or you are not looking closely. I'm from the south. I went to high school there, I got my college degree from there. I live there

The articles is in English, it seemed a reasonable discussion of what it meant to be accused of communist heresy and sent to a prison that would probably kill you in the 1930s. What's the issue here?

The Seattle times reported that we were 6 inches below average in recent rainfall and had the driest May on record since 1966. So it's likely we'll have more fires in the fall. Normally we have moderate weather because the wind bl

This is good because there will be people who can afford to get an EV now, who might have gotten something else. I almost worry that Tesla's success and ability to lower prices to increase sales will discourage legacy auto, but GM does
