as the nook reader is slightly better than the kindle reader on android.
That's the only thing I use it for. I rarely buy real books these days.

He's part of the "system". Therefore, his view is that anyone who isn't directly supporting the "system" is opposing it. Which means you're opposing him and the "good" work that he is doing. You are friendly to the "terrorists".
"Terrorists" in this case being defined as anyone Mark Rowley does not agree with.
Personally, I think that there are far more corrupt cops and corrupt politicians and so on who would abuse their authority than there are terrorists who can attack us.
Americans work longer hours and take fewer vacations than most others in the developed world.
We shoot each other more often as well.
With the possible exception of Postal workers (sorry, stereotyping) people who work 60-hour weeks and take no vacations are unlikely to be the ones doing the shooting -- they are doing the work of two people, and that other guy, the guy whose job the over-achiever has eliminated, is more likely to one with time to spare to go out murdering.
As productivity increases, companies can get more done with fewer workers. Good for profit margins, not so good for unemployment rates.
My prius cost me $6000 used. There were $3000 used models available, but they were all Gen 1 and didn't have their battery packs replaced.
That's what over-the-air updates are for.
She's wrong on a few points.
1. It has ALWAYS been about "Reducing Dependence on Human Workers". A person with years of hand-crafting skill is replaced by someone with months of machine-operating skill. And so forth.
2. Machines are NOT as good as she claims at predicting HUMAN behaviour. They're just getting to be better than the average human (who sucks at it).
3.
Now machines at call centers can be used to seamlessly generate spoken responses to customer inquiries, so that a single operator can handle multiple customers all at once.
No. HUMANS can be forced to read off a script but MACHINES suck at anything more complex than "Did you say "yes"".
It all comes down to proper design and the ability to say "NO".
Security cannot be retro-fitted to a badly designed system.
The person who can demand that you support X in Y configuration NO MATTER WHAT is the person who controls your security. No matter what his/her knowledge level is.
Next, understand that you will (eventually) be cracked. Someone somewhere will make some mistake just long enough. MONITOR for that. KNOW what the regular traffic on your network looks like. PLAN for what you are going to do WHEN that happens.
She'll be elected because she is a woman. All past history will be swept under the rug.
It's a naive, domestic operating system without any breeding, but I think you'll be amused by its presumption.
