This is being done by Progressive. They might even use it in court against their clients

The issue isn't the technology involved. Cable and DSL can each be great, awful, or somewhere in between. What matters is who's running it, and how.
While it's generally acknowledged that Comcast is awful, the DSL alternatives are also usually bad. AT&T, Verizon DSL, CenturyLink, etc aren't exactly known for their quality. You apparently have good service, which is the exception, not the norm.
A cyclist is not a pedestrian. They have the same rights (in most places) to the road as would a car, and are subject to most/all the same regulations. According to TFS, the cop drifted into the bike lane, striking the cyclist. At bare minimum, this was failure to maintain lane/unsafe lane change/etc
Why does it fall on the West (presumably the US) to do something? Don't most people bitch when the US involves itself in the affairs of others?
Furthermore, doesn't Ukraine have its own alliances to prevent exactly this?
While legally that may be correct, from a practical perspective it probably does not matter. AT&T (et all) seem to be above the law, and beyond the courts
There are audits, and acceptable variances. For instance, there's this.
Auditors regularly check the weight of the patties before cooking. While it won't help much with a specific instance, it will prevent systemic abuse like alleged in the article.
The pound is based on the kilogram. Specifically, a pound is "legally defined as exactly 0.45359237 kilograms"
If the kilogram is changing, so is the pound.
I suspect spin-off (or something along those lines)
If you really pressed for it, you can demand (and will receive) a trial beginning within 30 days. However, you will not be able to mount an appropriate defense, since your attorneys won't be given any info/evidence until the last minute.
None of this really matters tho - 90% of cases end in plea bargains
Speedometers are not precision instruments, so there's a (fairly substantial) margin of error, usually a few mph. As such, most (all?) new cars are factory calibrated to report a few mph slower than actual speed.
Google has already acknowledged that their cars currently cannot handle adverse conditions. They are working on it, but it's down the road (No pun intended). They're first working on getting it working in ideal conditions, since that's surprisingly hard to get right.
All driving laws are state laws, and they vary (pretty wildly) from state to state.
Additionally, culture changes (regardless of law) even just between cities.
I don't know why this is even a story. Technology getting cheaper over time? Competition driving lower costs? Amazing!
BTW, here's a Dell for $199, so the price point isn't even new. Although, this CPU is about half as powerful (~approximate benchmark)
It's still very much the same type of device.
Newer phones SELL for $600-800.
The BOM (cost to mfr) for the Galaxy S5 is $251
I couldn't find a current BOM for a laptop, but a few years ago they had RAM at about $25
The Windows logo doesn't guarantee compatibility with Linux, only that SecureBoot won't be the problem.
Drivers may or may not be a problem, but that will/may be resolved as developers get on board.
With your bare hands?!?
