That wasn't intended to be a real link. Good luck and godspeed, peeps!

Car OS: "I will just go look up on my trusted web server if there is a software update. Connecting to, lemme pull the address out of EEPROM, https://scammer.cn./"

So your bank shouldn't even have to use so much as https because it is illegal to monitor and use the password, and if it happens, you can't sue them for beign sloppy?

I guess we aren't doing freedom toast anymore.

Well, the Olympics demands local government keep their crazy-ass laws off the Olympics, or they don't get to have the Olympics.

As this is in the same league...

"Democratically" implemented, i.e. a rule change after the game had begun. He should have balked.

That's complete bull-cromulence! >:-(

An article for slashdotters will usually explain what fucking is.

Or in your case, gynecomastia dialing.

I'm sorry. I have a bonnet full of beans this morning because I have a stomach ache.

Iran deal.

No, but I also don't want to live in a world where people can temporarily stop a warrant and clean up their mess.

That is a complaint of this Iraq deal -- spot inspections can be stopped and as much as 24 days elapse before all objections expire and they invoke the wrath of restored sanctions.

Saddam used to do that all the time. Indeed, it can be expected as a regular practice precisely so that, when it really counts and they need to hide stuff, the delays won't seem unusual.

Well I'm sure they will have it all figured out in the future, but..."We were unable to find any DNA trace of the race of Nerd in any descendant groups."

That will lead to subtle grade inflation on how sick a patient is, with estimations now edging them to a higher sickness number. It will be a wash and leave doctors who treat the sickest still looking like the worst doctors.

I remember hearing of doctor grades a long time ago and forseeing the exact problem this thread describes.

The increase in deaths because the best doctors seeing the sickest losing their license, or shying away from the sickest, should be tallied, and corncobs shoved up the ass of the politicians who voted for it, one cobb per needless death.

Who's with me, fellas!

I don't think politicians want an actual outcomes estimation of their "work".

"Senator, your policies slowed technogical growth by 7%, leading to 270 million needless deaths worldwide because 74 major treatments were delayed an average of 4 years."

"Your grade for your kind, well-meaning heart is 9.8 Hitlers."

Unfortunatly laproscopic surgery for the big 3 bypasses isn't up to par yet. At least they don't slice open your entire leg to get a vein to play with anymore, pulling it out through a hole like a worm instead.

It's well known from studies that the more procedures a doctor does, the better the outcomes. What happens in 50 years when robots do so much and experienced doctors are dying off by the boatload?

For that matter, same issue with robot cars and people drive like a beginner in an emergency?
