Well... here's the first one.

Probably just used the data that Facebook collects by tracking people 24/7 all over the interwebs. Of course they wouldn't use all that data to help ad campaigns to '"narrowcast" at certain geographic areas' or anything like that, they collect it for, umm... different reasons?

The level of naivety is staggering sometimes...

They named him Chico de Chan Hoi me thinks...

I think (could be wrong, of course didn't RTFA) they mean a 'sewing line' as in one worker sews on the collar, one sews on the left sleeve &etc...

So (sew?) the output of one sewing line can produce 669 shirts in the same time one robot can do 1142 which may or may not equal a 17:1 ratio. Who knows, probably depends on the length of the human sewing line?

Reminds me of the last car I bought from a dealership, they had installed a crappy alarm system that one day let out all the magic smoke and the car wouldn't start. So I reach under the steering column and pulled the wires out of the stupid thing and the car ran just fine after that. Anti-theft my ass...

Got this python script to deauth the neighbors when they set their channel to the same as the restaurant with free wifi that should work pretty well for this "platoon".

Oh, and a platoon is like 25-30 so this is more like a fire-team of trucks.

Meh, saw one when I was a kid ('79 or whatever) so I guess I'm good.

I do the same thing all the time -- walk a block and buy from a selection of "several hundred fast-selling items" without having to use an app or wait several minutes for my items to appear in a locker. In fact, the items are spread out all over the store and I can just pick them up and take them to a counter to check out.

Seems to work out pretty well since they're almost always busy...

We also fought a couple wars against communists yet I see a bunch of them rioting and looting on American streets on a regular basis with implicit support from local *cough*Berkeley*cough* governments.

I suppose you have a point?

Especially if the paper were to be used to print invitations to a gay wedding...

Yep, each state is different...under Arizona State Law 13-103:

Used to drink with a retired city prosecutor and (at the time) part time judge who would often remind me that "Arizona isn't a common law state".

I know, right?

Just the other day I was waiting for the light rail and a couple cars got into an accident on the next street with one ending up disabled right in the middle of the tracks. Of course my first question to the people getting the passengers to swap trains so both could continue in their original direction was "Why doesn't your scheduling algorithm take into account these unforeseen circumstances because, you know, I have places to be?"

No help for "children on my lawn"....

Take to the streets my brothers to close this REM gender gap!!!

/. has devolved into mostly partisan bickering. Sad!
