I'm voting for Republicans all down the ballot, because Democrats are determined to flood the country with maximum numbers of illegal invaders.

Vote Republican or we won't have a country left. Look to the EU and UK for examples of what happens when too many Mooslums get in.

Actually always on police body cams are the more useful instrument. Civilian cell phones too often do not provide a full and accurate portrayal of events, missing earlier parts of the interaction. This has happened with body cams that can be turned off too, hence the "always on" caveat to ensure a complete portrayal of events.

Cellphone cameras are used in a more overt manner. The new issue is the more covert nature of the smart glasses.

"...and then you give them a sizable bank deposit for all of their legal costs, not justice served the towing of their car, the income they were unable to earn while jailed, the job they quite likely got fired from due to missing work, the ruination of their reputation, the destruction of their family, the diseases/injuries that occur while they are in jail, the mental damages, the spoiled food in their fridge, the bills that go unpaid, the overdrawn checking account fees, the credit card APR that jumps to 29% due to a missed payment, and the plea deal they finally agree to - despite being innocent - because the DA uses the full force of government power to leverage all of the above, making it rational to take a plea rather than spend 2+ years fighting it with income you no longer have, right?

...RIGHT???"

Your simplification of this scenario - which is playing out millions of times every week in the USA across thousands of criminal courts - as a simple mistake that can just be un-done, is one of those perspectives that "seems philosophically interesting but is not interesting pragmatically" because the system does not operate in that philosophically ideal way for anyone.

Are cigarette manufacturing services inciting lung cancer?

One of my gripes with the cigarette industry is these smokable-paper-cylinder models are designed around engagement. They prey on human behavior and the elderly who grew up with smoking, the young who have weak critical thinking skills, and those with mental health issues (like compulsivity and anxiety) are especially vulnerable. I don't believe a Nicotine molecule itself has any intent (it cannot) nor does the company that owns and manufactures the smokable-paper-cylinder model likely have any specific harmful intent to "incite" major disease/death beyond engagement and purchases of cigarettes.

The evidence is in the older posts, which you misquote and misrepresent.

Comments were made on the actual topic, remote frontier-level models. Not on the strawm you tried to change the conversation to, local models which you described as "modest". Something very different than the actual topic.

Again, you are projecting your own behavior.

In the past Apple has done things like add options so that an approval is temporary, say 15 minutes, rather than permanent.

If Miranda rights were written a little like the Second Amendment, police would indeed have a PD in house for this. But even the 2nd Amendment, despite 'shall not...', is regularly sidestepped. Bear in mind, though, that in many big cities the schools are teaching that police are the enemy. They fail, however, to follow that up with 0) know your rights, and 1) STAY OUT OF TROUBLE. But to make big city school systems are cheating students out of a future. It's criminal.

Tschernobyl blew up, no shutting down. TMI melted its core. Fukushima melted its core. Windscale had a burning graphite core. You were saying? Oh, right, you just claimed total crap.

" All cell phones by law have a AM/FM capabilty"

Untrue. False. Made up.

" into the AM broadcast band, which is about 50 times lower in frequency than AM broadcast"

Huh? Maybe you meant 'about 50 times lower in frequency than FM broadcast'. If only FM had better range, but nope.

Bear in mind that the 'emergency' where your car radio could be most useful might, no probably, will also have a power outage in there somewhere. Cell service will not last too long when the batteries die, and the generators don't work, or weren't there at all...

With that attitude, Sam shouldn’t be surprised to walk into his favorite restaurant and find The Altman being the dish du jour.

It’s quite telling how blind Greed can be when it utterly fails to see the concept of Eat the Rich behavior practically authoring the next menu revision.

"Who the hell cares if I can get a radio station from thousands of miles away "

Most AM radio listening is to local stations. MW propagation can range a few thousand miles, but it's somewhat unusual.

And not the point of the defense of AM radio in automobiles. Timely information, emergency information, AM is still a popular option, and listenership is not decreasing.

"just buy a radio'. Huh, so that handheld radio would not suffer from interference (Hams call it WRM, but it is really RFI) just like the build in unit? The real problem here is that automobile manufacturers do not want to solve the RFI issues. It is expensive. And complex. And not unreasonable. The AM radio in my Prius does not suffer form RFI, and there is an inverter and HV drive system in there. Tesla etc. will have to employ serious engineers to show then where they went wrong. A Herculean effort? I bet not.
