Miranda rights: If you cannot afford an attorney, a completely useless one who doesn't want to be there and won't do his best for you or anything like it will be appointed for you before any questioning, if you wish.
fixed that for you, HTH, HAND
Anything made by the USA with a V8 in the "malaise era" is the anti-tesla.
Hey, my dad gave me that watch. And I have allergies. I'm trying to make a cold medicine that will blow them away.
You can certainly unintentionally confess to a crime. Never talk to the police except through your lawyer.
Thank you, Mister Rockefeller, but what about all the poor schmoes who don't have a lawyer on retainer? They shouldn't have to worry about being shaken down by the cops, either.
They couldn't take the pressure so instead they brought the heat.
Now you're just getting redundant... can it.
If you swing for IT and miss, what are you going to do for a living? Phone support? Telemarketing?
If you swing for some real vocation and miss, like say smog tech or doctor, you can still fall back as something else, like a normal bolt-breaking mechanic, or a weed doc.
I don't know what the female equivalents are, it's probably sexist even to just suggest such a thing. Not a lot of women going into smog though
It's sad that people are more concerned with what companies are doing with their information than the government.
When a revolving door exists between corporations and Washington, and when corporations can buy public policy, what's the difference?
Man, I rail against NYT paywalls which people erroneously claim can by bypassed by private browsing, and I get accused of trolling. One failbook link, and everyone LOSES THEIR MINDS
Or however the meme goes.
So why is Mozilla trying to enter into the cheap handset market? This isn't their core competencies.
It just seems like they're flailing about trying to define the next big thing. And, really, that seems to be a waste of resources.
This just feels like Mozilla has kind of lost the plot.
Mozilla lost the plot long ago. Their combination of arrogance and incompetence has ruined what was once the best browser around.
But at least they forced their CEO to resign because he voted against same sex marriage. They've got that going for them.
Because it will collapse otherwise because it no longer can suck on Google's teet.
But now, they've got Bing's teat to suck on.
I imagine that eventually people will stop giving Mozilla boatloads of free money and Mozilla will have to figure out a way to function like a real business. However, this isn't it:
"they've hinted at plans to start supporting Android apps"
That will kill Firefox OS faster than anything. If Firefox OS runs Android apps then there's no reason for write any Firefox OS apps. There already are a gazillion Android apps out there. And if you think of something new, and you're already experienced at writing for Android, there's no need to learn how to write for Firefox OS, just keep making Android apps. And if there are no Firefox OS-specific apps then there's no reason to use Firefox OS.

The problem is that it's all so complicated that one cannot really understand the matter without spending years of work and research on it,
You can say that about absolutely anything, and have been able to say that ever since human knowledge became generally redistributable. But anybody can understand that nobody really knows whether these chemicals can be used safely, and that we have alternatives for them.
How anyone, who is not a subject matter expert, can make a decision in this is just beyond me.
They can err on the side of caution. It doesn't mean taking no risks, it means taking action to limit risk.,/p>
I guess you win the turing test, everyone else is still wondering why you don't think an endocrine system is relevant to your existence.
Not just that, but many people stockpiled ammo when shortages were announced. Whether that was a bid to get people to stockpile ammo or just a handout to ammo manufacturers, either way there's a whole lot of ammunition out there as well as firearms. There's probably more ammo privately stockpiled now than at any time in history.
Look at Coca Cola. They don't make anything that anybody else can't make.
Nonsense. I hardly even drink cola any more, but Pepsi still tastes like ass and Coca-Cola still tastes better. It's a complete falsehood to suggest that anyone else can do what Coca-Cola can do, because a lot of people have spent a lot of money trying and they've all failed so far. Coca-Cola doesn't have a good name just because they've had it for a long time, Pepsi is an old brand too. Coca-Cola has a good name because they make a product that people want to buy, and have been doing that for a long time. Even when they were busy dicking around with their recipes and alienating some customers they still managed to remain on top.
Uber, on the other hand, really can be replaced overnight, in whole or in part, in some cities or in all cities, in some countries or in all countries, etc. They do absolutely nothing that someone else couldn't do just as well, if not better.
So yeah, everyone else is being compared to Uber, you've got that right. And it's worth something, you've got that right, too. But comparing Uber to Coca-Cola is way off-base. I haven't consumed a cola that wasn't from a weird off-brand (Zevia, in this case) in literally years, but if I were going to get one in some mainstream establishment devoid of more potable choices like filtered water (you have to hand it to soda, they at least filter the water before using it, it's important for consistency) I would still lick the sweat off a dead dog's balls before I'd drink a Pepsi. I'd drink Tabasco. I'd drink mayo.
Which basically means law enforcement is in the hands of a bunch of idiots who don't know or care the law.
The high-end cops, the chiefs and sergeants and whatnot, know the law well enough to know they're breaking it. The low-end beat cops know fuck-all about the law, this has been shown again and again. It's what happens when you only need a couple of years of community college and a pat on the ass to become a cop.
But make no mistake about it, these people aren't going to obey the law unless until they find themselves under threat of being in a cell themselves. And then they'll just pretend to obey the law.
And that's why every cop needs a camera on all the time, and they should never ever be taken at their word. If there's no video evidence of what they're saying, then they should be assumed to be lying. That'll motivate those dicks to get cameras that work, and to not turn them off. Nothing else will keep them in line, and even that still requires substantial citizen oversight.
