Oh I would be very happy to see fiber from a government run/sponsored co (completely passive no power needed) to every address.

And of those 3 IO pins were trivial. It's Linux so your not going to bit bang an interface like an arduino the OS overhead is to touchy. You can add many i2c gpio with dirt cheap chips that still come in pdip format. You can not add more ram or cpu speed in a meaningful manner. If you need faster gpio SPI gpio chips are also plentiful and cheap.

The airline industry is not a natural monopoly, your not forced to go with one of the one or two (cell/sat broadband is so worthless to not count as a viable option) airlines in any major area.

The ability to regulate broadband as a utility is potentially great, it's how it's regulated that matters so do not hold your breath with the current fcc leadership.

He is in his last 2 years this is legacy time not fundraising he is effectively set for life.

It really has nothing to do with gender or ethnicity, I've seen white males unable to fit in and black females do just fine along with everything in-between. This is team building soft skills making coworkers feel safe around you etc etc. If you come off as having a chip on your shoulder and an ax to grind you will fail at this irregardless of gender or ethnicity. Were not talking about playing golf etc but hey lets get lunch. Making people feel at ease around you is an important valuable work skill that the author seems to lack.

Their failure to integrate is a perfectly fine reason to be passed over. I've managed women and people of color in the IT workplace and some fit in just fine it's no different than a white male who is a school snob or otherwise fails to gel with the rest of the team, they have to be outstanding to make up for the failures in their soft skills. In general if you have a prissy attitude or otherwise a chip on your shoulder you wont fit in because you choose not to that is a failure solely on them. People are free to make that choice but do not complain when it adversely affects you.

The documents indicate the FBI in Seattle obtained a search warrant to “deploy” the CIPAV software after the task force, which is run by the FBI, received a public tip about a suspect. Special Agent Norman Sanders, in seeking the warrant, said the bureau would send a “communication” to the suspect’s computer that would make the computer identify itself for the agent.

The case was taken up by the U.S. Attorney’s Office, which helped draft and approve the warrant. The warrant does not say that “communication” would be a bogus news story that appeared to be published online by The Seattle Times.

Still idiotic to have the fed have anything to do with a teenager and a bomb threat. At the point they got the tip they knew it was a teen and had little creditable threat.

The linked article.

Yea a random no-name high school that is were the terrorists will strike. Terrorism by definition requires a political aspect and violence, it's doubtful the 15 year old have a political motive or any particular ability for violence. Since when do terrorists make bomb threats anyways they blow stuff up and claim responsibility not tell you specifically we put a bomb here get the people to safety before it blows. The FBI overreacted and was intentionally circumspect in their warrant.

Seems like a simple warrant for the newspapers logs would have sufficed except they probably would not have gotten the warrant and/or the times would have fought it as the fishing expedition it was.

They got said warrant without mentioning to the judge that they were going to impersonate a major news organization.

They got a 15 year old calling in bomb threats, what idiot made this a FBI case.

Na I vote for who matches my stance on things, that generally means not electable.

Because you get a choice of the a or b side of bad? The two party system is broken by design to give the illusion of choice.

But that is their upside they don't want to be paying out for the data breaches. Target and HD got hit hard. It's a nonstarter as Apple and Google can pull the curentc app and it's dead.

This is really simple Apple and Google have a stranglehold on installing apps, is walmart going to try and explain side loading?

It's more dangerous at grocery stores and the like where they may only get savings if you use it.

When does this turn into abuse of monopoly powers since walmart,kmart and target effectively have killed off any competitors.
