ISIS is also heavily funded by Saudi Arabia in both cash and transfer of weapons, of which I fully expect a large percentage of the latest 100b deal to funneled to ISIS.

AR done right is still missing the most critical of all pieces ... a lightweight, high resolution, volumetric display.
It's not clear (to anyone) that those pieces can be put together before next decade. Until then all we really have is various versions of a HUD which while sometimes interesting, us ultimately more of a hindrance that a help.

A halfway point would be a HUD that can shift focal distance combined with an eye tracking system to place the HUD focal distance to match where the user is looking.

Suse 15 does not install rsyslog by default.

Please god yes. Cal exit.
(Oh, and surprise ... Cal gone a couple of years after that ... water rights go away with Cal exit, and Cal goes away w/o water).

If I understand correctly,

The 'study' comes out to $8-10 net taxable profit, assuming the maximum per-mile deductible.

So yeah the per-mile includes depreciation meaning a replacement vehicle is in already included in the expenses.
Also the longer you can keep the car in good condition the better you profit margin gets.
    Ex: $0.53 / mile * 100k miles -> $53k in expenses (including fuel [10k at 30 mpg] and maintenance, taxes, insurance [Say another 10K or so, worst case]).
If you can keep the vehicle in good condition for, say, 200k miles (not unreasonable for a quality build) you may have a full $70-80k banked for that next car (or two and hire a second driver).

For the right mindset it can be a good opportunity, but if that 80k gets spent on something else, ouch.

Well https://patents.google.com/pat... (May 2007) is either
    - prior art as facebook enabled tagging users in photos in Dec 2005. [https://patents.google.com/patent/US7945653B2/en]
or
    - Not applicable (The patent is about Facebook for BlackBerry® smartphones).

That's a set of cajones for ya.

I have never run a 'speed test' but most of the time I connect via LTE where LTE exists. AFAIK the data isn't capped while travelling internationally. Although Hong Kong is still a random blackout sore spot, which is really annoying when 3 offers unlimited LTE at US$12/month.

ObRant: 3 is owned by Hutchison Whampoa based in Whampoa, Hong Kong. The FI international provider is Hutchison Whampoa and states that they provide access to 3's LTE network (which has the greatest and fastest coverage in Hong Kong) yet every time I'm there data and cell connectivity is a crapshoot. Hong Kong has historically been, and continues to be, a problematic destination for FI users.

So either way the fundamental problem of too many people solves itself.

Most locales today are ad valorem (taxed at market value). Here there is still a cap .. your market value is capped at 10% increase per yer. If you do any improvements to the property that cap is tossed.
Also the estimated percent of property taxes is 1% for a first ~100k (may have changed) and then 2% there after.
Also insurance is included int the mortgage* payment.
Mortgage includes: Interest + Principal + Property Taxes + Property Insurance + PMI**

* This all assumes your mortgage is with a bank or lending institution as opposed to a private party.
** Bank's repayment insurance .. if your equity to loan ratio is less than 20% [or 30% in some locations] of value.

No much (for the car) actually.
It's *mostly* hooking the A/V streams to the codecs and handling some control logic (who owns the mic/display/speakers) depending on the state machine.
Same is true for Android Auto for what it's worth.

... foxconn only does assembly.

My impression is that http://clickykeyboards.com/ would have taken them off your hands and listed them as well.

Real shame that ...

Yes ... but systemd is a 'happy path' only.
When something goes wrong then the thing just shits all over itself. Just like everything else pottering has ever touched,
Just went through the shit this weekend .. CD drive died (no big, wasn't being used for anything) but systemd managed to fubar the whole f'ing system. Fallback to upstart worked fine.

Other stuff that is a major PITA with systemd: OpenVPN. Whenever I change my .conf file I have to update systemd with some whacky config because it 'caches' my config file in it's own little world. WTF is that about? Dunno but it's enough of a pain that I'll be jumping to the debian boxen to devuan and tossing the ubuntu for the same reason.

Let CentOS / RHEL 7 deal with all the SystemD crap .. when it's actually decent (after pottering gets bored and real developer fixes all his shit) then maybe it will be the init system that it is being touted as.

Rent control.
50K is considered poverty level by the county (for an individual) in that area.
If they were paying market rate the rent is closer to 2500/mo.

Also starting wage for IT is closer to 120k in the area (at the bottom end) and 160k median so I hope you have some amazing benefits ...
Where are you doing IT is Palo Alto, Frys?

The problem with the HUD is that projected overlays remain at a fixed focal distance. A volumetric HUD (holographic) would work for this experiment but I think this is a nifty 'cheat' for demonstrating what a volumetric HUD can do, should a car manufacturer pursue commercializing it.

The current commercial offerings for HUD tech are at best a driving distraction, which is in large part why they have failed in the market place.
