That's where this is all going anyway. If the age verification is nothing more than "state your age" when you make your user account then people will type in whatever they want. Then the politicians will say "Well, this age verification isn't working because there's nothing legally verifying the response. We need to add a check that identifies the person so we can know they are telling the truth." And then they will say "You surely will implement this into your OS, right? You already put the age check in we asked for before, we're just asking that be fixed to make sure responses are truthful."

Wouldn't a breathalyzer lockout on a car's ignition be a better safety feature than taking away their license? I mean, it's not like you have to scan a valid license to operate a vehicle. Taking away theirs would likely just result in a bunch of unlicensed drunk drivers behind the wheel.

The money is a refund of lease money the French company paid the U.S. earlier. Not taxpayer money.

I would be very surprised if someone had that argument when the car was invented. You're really stretching for this one.

Waymo might have done the right thing here. If the car had sped away and accidentally run over the person, that would be a very different story.

The guy in the car was annoyed for six minutes and then it was over. I have some sympathy but not really.

From the article:

There is no world where linear programmed Cable TV can compete with a la carte.

Streaming is just better.

Knowing the exact location of a carrier makes it easier to target. Iran shot missiles at an aircraft carrier, but they missed it because they didn't know where the carrier was (or because the missiles got jammed).

"Don't be Detected" is the second layer of the survivability onion.

I got skills you don't know about, man. I could fix it.

I don't mind sanctions. Any country that doesn't have free elections is a country we shouldn't be trading with.

Governments should not keep their people as slaves.

The US is low on THAAD high end interceptor missiles, and everyone (Saudi Arabia, Ukraine, Taiwan, Korea, etc) wants Patriot missiles so there aren't enough for everyone (but production is steadily increasing).

Other than that, the bombs being dropped on Iran can be produced at a similar rate as they are being dropped.

You mean to tell me you didn't like Windows 98 OR Windows ME? How is that possible??

Fix the problem by writing more code? Watch me.

What are you talking about, learn to use logic.

You didn't use logic you just made a list of things you don't like. The question was about history.

Well, the "bus factor" is a real concern that should be dealt with, but there are solutions for that, too. The easiest of course being to hire two good people who can understand the code.
