Not worth getting arrested anymore for that stuff in an old IBM data center.
No one is getting arrested because they are looking for cool secrets. Urban explorers are urban explorers, they simply like exploring things. There's a whole group of people who see the decay of civilisation as a hobby to look at. And based on the video I saw, this campus has a LOT to offer those people.
How the fark do you do that without a platform like Facebook?
We organised such events not only before Facebook, but also before email, and we do so now also without Facebook or email (also please NEVER put invites of large groups in CC, it's a major breach of privacy. The BCC field exists for that reason.)
Seems people who hate facebook, never use it, and have no clue what it actually is about.
No. Facebook has useful edge cases. That's not what people hate about it. Mind you those useful edge cases can easily be replaced by a service that isn't as objectively bad for society. I fully support your idea to use an alternate event management platform (and there are many out there, you can do a bit of research to find one that doesn't force people to have a Facebook account like literally most events...).
No one here is judging Facebook based on its events management. But thankfully it's been a good decade since I've needed to use it.
Oh that I agree with, the US should definitely take action. I thought you were talking about Europe. That said nothing is perfect. The EU would do well to pass unified gambling laws. Right now it's every nation for itself and there are still plenty of places in Europe where prediction markets are unregulated.
Humans screw up in very different ways. They don't enter intersections and then stop if the traffic signals are out.
Actually I've seen that. Yes humans do work in different ways. That's almost a bit worse than it is better. But definitely plenty of people have a freeze reaction and very much do just stop dumbfounded when something isn't working for them.
By the way Waymos don't do this either. They by default treat intersections with lights out the way you legally should: an all-way-stop. The problem is they get confused by other drivers who don't. It's a very real issue that is a problem caused by your second point: Humans fucking suck at co-ordinating. I've seen lights in in America, it's a shitshow. I've seen lights out in other countries too, in the Netherlands and Germany it's not, because the road markings determine the exact traffic order when the lights are out (which is why you see stop, giveway, and priority signs next to traffic lights).
Waymo can improve there's no doubt about it. But a large part of the problem isn't them, it's people.
Cuba gets slammed by a lot of hurricanes, which are bad for both solar panels and wind turbines.
Plus this only blocks Youtubes adverts - these days you often have to wade through the content creators own ads, at least one for the “sponsor of this video”, and then at least one for the content creators own Patreon or equivalent merch site
Just timed a 9 minute video I was watching while browsing this story - 3 minutes of content creators ads, 6 minutes of content.
And theres no way around the content creators ads even if you do become a Patreon.
The police officers in the case above should be reprimanded and a note be made about their lack of judgement.
What lack of judgement? This wasn't a joke, or an obvious joke. It was a data handling error. The police handled it without escalation, and after a quick conversation everything was over, no one was arrested, or even taken to a police station.
Slashdot: A place where people complain that police don't follow up on crime, and complain when police follow up on crime. A place where people complain that police a militarised psychos who shoot innocents (worth complaining about) and equally complain when they handle a case professionally and without incident.
Get a fucking grip.
Guns drawn != guns pointed. And in the case in question the guns weren't even drawn.
Get a grip buddy.
I can assure you that most cops are criminals
Yeah I agree with you. You need to do actual research.
The military implications are obvious. Think Ukraine. If you suspect the enemy is trying to infiltrate on a dark night along several kilometers of frontline, you light up the scene while launching a bunch of low-cost FPV drones, and those infiltrators are about to have a bad day.
You *can* spot infiltrators in the dark with IR cameras, but it requires much more expensive drones and isn't usually as effective, hence the preference for night operations. Plus, there's IR camouflage, with varying degrees of success. But it usually makes you stand out like a sore thumb under illumination (you're basically wearing a tent).
Well this kind of thing happens.
So we're beating down social media while ignoring "predictions" markets. Hmmm.
Who ignored prediction markets? They are banned in France, Netherlands, Belgium and Portugal, they are restricted in Spain and Germany. The UK, Ireland and Denmark have a licensing system in place and are looking at taking action against companies not registering.
You do realise that even if the EU was one person we humans are able to do more than one thing at a time right? Why should Facebook get a free pass because it's not your pet project of concern?
Who said they end up somewhere else on the internet? You worried that a bunch of moms and teens will come here and say SystemD is an awesome thing or something?
Yes, all things to hide cigarettes, but they don't dare to outright ban them,
How is it hypocritical? No one is banning Facebook either.
We all know this company intends to launch just one satellite. That's all this is. This approval is for one, and one is the only one that company will launch. Their business plan is based on only one satellite so there won't be more than one.
I wish the FCC would stop being gaslighting fucks.
A motion to adjourn is always in order.
