What the devil?

Fixable, yes; easily, no. One of the problems is land availability near services and transportation. The second is zoning laws which are not aligned with creating affordable housing. Both if those are processes which will take decades to truly solve, even with consistent, continuous vision and plan.

Netflix for online journalism/news

So, like, regular removals of older material and ever increasing prices and restrictions? Oh, yeah, sign me up.

Here’s a negative of your question: I’m blocking/ignoring every community that is just endless bot posts. And there are a lot of them.

You know what would be brave? Making a round watch. A watch with a cool, raised bezel that would both protect the crystal and offer a capacitive interface like the old dial on iPods.

I think that’s too brave for the current design team, though.

The most dangerous game of all.

like firearms charges?

I heard this morning that a very similar firearms charge against someone else was adjudicated to be unconstitutional just this week. So now they have nothing but a couple years of tax evasion charges which,iirc, he’s already paid.

Even the biggest phones, imo, just don’t have the real estate for decent note taking. Tablets, esp with low aspect ratio screens, are the sweet spot.

I agree. Outlaw petroleum extraction and then just nuke the areas that have the petroleum workers. Blame the nukes on Russia or China. No more industry, no jobs to worry about. [brushed dust off hands] Done and done.

I didn't quite completely quit, but there's lot of other things to do than watch TV.

This is the ideal response to a system threat of this type, especially if they didn't know the vulnerability existed.

“It should be noted that the vulnerability identified by the students does NOT pose an imminent risk affecting safety, system disruption, or a data breach,” Pesaturo added.

That may be one of the most adult things ever said by an organization executive. Since they have a replacement system (hopefully more secure) in the works and they've used the data from he hackers to mitigate potential financial impacts to the system in the mean time, they're being completely level-headed about the process. It's a damned shame this doesn't happen more often.
