Or any Internet-connected device that is dependent on that connection and some remote server, out of your control, for the functionality that it offered and for which it was purchased. Companies wishing to bail should update, or make available, the server software for stand-alone use.
Fecal Fetisher?
Scatological scholastic.
You two work-shopping future Ubuntu release names?
The way he died is not really the way someone killed dies. It's very, very difficult to intentionally cause the series of events he died of.
Granted, though it really depends on why he was initially "having trouble breathing" -- I don't think TFA/S elaborates on the reason. The actual sequence of events that lead to his death would be hard to control, but not necessarily predict. It depends on how much any perpetrators knew about him and how thoroughly
It doesn't just seem dumb; it seems like something a small child would find funny, not an adult.
So... Elon's idea?
Joshua Dean, a former quality auditor at Boeing supplier Spirit AeroSystems and one of the first whistleblowers to allege Spirit leadership had ignored manufacturing defects on the 737 MAX, died Tuesday morning after a struggle with a sudden, fast-spreading infection.
About that. So... Google phone ditches Visual Voicemail (something useful) and adds this (something dumb).

This seems dumb?
I'd rather try to invent something that makes kid spit those things out instead of swallowing them.
TFS notes:
The battery also features more secure packaging and a nontoxic bitter coating.
By the time mine was about 2 she could easily take stuff apart on her own and unfortunately you can hide stuff, you can watch them as much as you can , but occasionally they'll do things they shouldn't when you're not looking.
That was true with me; my parents said I routinely took apart all sorts of things, including my crib. I think a lot of the comments saying this is 100% preventable are by people who don't have kids or haven't had to watch them for any extended period. Same goes for pets -- like dogs eating chocolate and getting sick.
It happens to inattentive parents. Just like kids chugging parents' drugs happens thousands of times for thousands of reasons to inattentive parents.
Dogs eating chocolate
Ya, sorry. As I noted in another post, I didn't edit/add enough before getting distracted and errantly clicking through. No way to then edit/delete... I'd like to blame my KVM (which does something weird whenever Windows polls it) but was most likely me not paying enough attention. I'll probably end up swallowing a battery later today.
So woman fails to watch her baby. Instead of going "FML, I failed as a parent" woman decides to blame society
Sexist much?
The person's name is Trista Hamsmith who prefers the pronouns "her" and "she" and claims to be a "woman". What's your problem with that?
Sorry, I meant to edit/add more, but got distracted -- by a baby eating a coin battery (kidding) -- and then clicked though. TFA notes that this happens thousands of times, for thousands of reasons -- including with pets -- presumably with mothers and fathers. She didn't blame society, just decided to do something about it.
This has already been developed for button type batteries: TU Delft and RUG/UMCG join forces to develop child-friendly button cell
Interesting.
That article also suggests giving a child who swallows a coin battery honey -- doesn't say why that is effective -- then taking the kid to a doctor. I'll note that babies under 1-year shouldn't eat honey because, "a type of bacteria (called Clostridium) that causes infant botulism can be found in honey." So there's that... coin battery vs. potential botulism.
to social problems. Be a parent and keep harmful things away from children.
Babies and young children get into all sorts of things -- pets too. In addition, all kinds of babies (human, puppy, etc...) explore the world by putting things in their mouths. Shiny things, like coin batteries, are especially attractive.
Noting that this happens way more than it should in many households, she worked to help make things safer. Babies (pets too) get into all sorts of things, no matter how good/attentive parents are -- both mothers *and* fathers.
Life is a whim of several billion cells to be you for a while.
