That was my question about all this. Why would "rural business owners" drive for 30 minutes or more to make a delivery for Amazon? I'm thinking that Amazon believes that the suburbs are the rural areas. Where I live (which is not the middle of nowhere by any means) is over an hour to the nearest incorporated city. The business' owners in the nearest "town" will not be making deliveries, in many if not most cases they are the only one there. More marketing hyperbole.

You missed the guy in the rear. Three makes it 30% more impressive!

Let me guess, you put your hands in front of your face and chant "nanny nanny, you can't see me" and believe that you are hidden. Have you ever heard of public urination ordinances? In Ca it falls under PC 372, but many if not most cities and/or counties have specific ordinances against it. Just because you can't or don't want to see others does not mean you are not in public. Talk about "patently absurd".

Please don't mistake my post as a "pro" surveillance statement. I was pointing out that many people mistake their desires for what's actually codified.

Since we are discussing cameras in the public view, if you are in public anyone can legally follow i.e. "track" you. Just because you don't like it, does not make illegal. Also the "government" can walk with you, talk with you, and even LIE to you (gasp).

I just had to get rid of my old 5 last year, it just started giving up the ghost on me. Replaced it with a second hand s22, I hate having to twist it all around with one hand trying to get the fingerprint reader to work. IMHO, the best implementation of a bio reader yet.

I was hoping they would bring back the fingerprint reader on the back. That was such a nice convivence to read you index finger without having to move the phone around in your grip.

Show how ignorant you are without intending to show how ignorant you are.

should be sentenced to an eternality of herding cats. They are absolutely vile in places with stop lights at every corner. Disabled it immediately on my wife's last vehicle.

Science is not to blame here, it's the media taking one small bit of info from the science, and deciding it's not dramatic enough to engage the consumer.

That can't be true. Most people still believe in a "God" of some form after all. Humans love to follow prophets, that way they don't have to think for themselves.

This! Yes making a functioning, reasonably safe gun is pretty trivial. Now I admit that as I was a machinist as a younger man in the 80's and 90's it might seem easier to me than to most. Weapons were handmade for decades and they functioned sufficiently well to be used in combat. Would they be accurate and safe as a modern weapon? Of course not, but they would work. Some thick wall tubing, some misc. plate and rod, a hacksaw, a drill, a file, and some fasteners would really be all you would need. All easily attainable. A stock or handle could be fabricated out of firewood, so is New York going to outlaw firewood next? Stupid politicians=stupid laws.

TV's USED to be the one tech product I regularly updated. Now it looks like I'll be keeping my three yr old LG for awhile, there goes at least one sale.

Here's hoping he leaves for his new palace soon.

Not everyone carries an electronic device with them at all times. So what then? The device addicted among us always seem to forget that not everyone is so afflicted.
