I'm not the OP, but I have a hard time understanding why people can't separate the bias from the facts in any news piece. Sure, it's "The PoSt MiLlEnNiAl", but you lose the chance or opportunity to broaden your mind

I'd consider it social engineering in this day and age. Who _wouldn't_ want to tell you all their encryption keys and passwords after listening to Janet Jackson? ;-)

They'll start using surveillance technology in schools so that easily impressionable kids will be used to it by the time they're adults - and by the time anybody speaks up it'll be used in the corporate environment, then soci

Thank you for mentioning these details. I've been considering a light-duty hybrid/electric vehicle for a while and the Ford Mavericks have caught my interest - I've been holding off because I don't want to be an early ad

I wonder how they could tell though - Maybe the refill bottles themselves have electrical contacts and that's how they serialize the refills? Once it's been dumped into the printer, they burn an efuse on the refill so it's no

The only way I could see this providing value is for larger multi-function printers that offices use - I don't see this having any benefit in the home/small office market - just seems like they're trying to ride the wave of C

It's really disgusting/disheartening to have seen society move from a generation of "buy once, service/maintain forever" to "throw out, buy another one". It's made it increasingly hard to repair every

Isn't that what a lot of environmentalists/climate helpers suggest anyways? I've heard that driving a vehicle until everything falls apart is a lot more green/climate friendly than immediately switching to something new.

Any time I send a device into a manufacturer for repair, standard practice for me is to completely wipe the device if I can. I assume I'm getting a refurbished unit back since it's easier for their repair depot probably. Not sure

Thank you for mentioning this! I don't have the time and mental resources to browse through these research papers all the time but knowing that what I'm asking is actually in the paper, maybe I'll give it a browse. Thanks :)

I think it's because more and more people are opting to use phones to consume their media instead of traditional avenues like TV. Lying in bed, on the bus, in the classroom, etc - less time to sit down in the living room and watch yout
