Look, you didn't get the memo. Stay on message. It's the democrat governor.

The are really pushing hepatitis C++ these days.
 

By complete coincidence I recently purchased this cordless angle grinder kit after watching a glowing review from one of my regular channels and wondering how good it could be for $75. It's not as good as a Milwaukee but I've been using it around the house and I'm going to modify a shoe rack with it this evening.

Of course this has nothing to do with the story and surely these aren't the types of arms the Framers envisioned when they set the foundation of upholding the Constitution upon the duties of the Citizenry.

You're overthinking this.

The top of the blame flowchart starts with: "If state has democrat governor: blame democrat governor; Goto end."

"Blame the environmentalists" is several layers down in the other branches of the flowchart.

Anybody remember Dubbya going on and on about gasoline made from switchgrass?

Somehow growing succulents in fragile desert ecologies and irrigating them seems like a dead end.

Maybe they got a government grant.

As someone alluded to above the forest litter causing all these fires may be a good source of cellulose. Betcha robots could make it economical.

You should be sorry for commenting in ignorance. ...Asimov wrote extensively on that exact premise.

> We need new laws to make life safer in the US and CATCHING Criminals.

Violent crime is at historical lows.

Most of our criminal laws are not enforced. If the police have extra time there is a whole Epstein Client List that needs arresting.

> tying the hands of LEO"S

Yes, that is the point of rights. Liberty is not safety. Europe is available for those who prefer safety over Liberty. Europeans who prefer Liberty should be welcome to come here. Cops who distain the rights of citizens should self-deport too.

Anyway, SCOTUS has extensively covered Mosaic Theory if you want the case law. Imagine being an LEO and ignoring the highest court in the land. That's just gang behavior.

> Government asserts that it will be able to identify all potential suspects

They went too far and failed.

They may be able to identify all suspects but even a clever six year old would ask, "and if they're not carrying an active phone"?

Geofence warrants were already struck down by SCOTUS and the government's position is arguing about the difference between beige, tan, and taupe.

Anyway it's a general warrant.

That's actually a pretty good time range - Sun-like stars in the Galactic Habitable Zone have been around for about 9 billion years, and if we assume Earth's 4.5 billion year history is typical, 5 billion years ago is about as far back as you'd expect to find little green men.

We are on the verge of being able to scan the atmosphere of exoplanets in bulk. It won't be that long (relatively speaking) before we'll know if there are any planets in our sky with chemistry that suggests a living biosphere. I hope to live long enough to see the results.

Expecting respect from the current US government.

Ludus Latrunculorum was popular for a while.

Lidar doesn't guarantee things, but since you brought up fog, guess what *can not* sense well in fog? Cameras. LIDAR and RADAR do better in fog.

Yes the problem with self driving goes beyond having the right sensors. That doesn't mean you shouldn't have the right sensors.

He's not lying, he's simply stating that you can give automation super human senses, and it would just be a complete idiot that would be so against those senses even in principle that hehwould remove common radar sensors from his car, just to prove a point.

He's not talking about worst human case or maybe even typical human. He's saying that confining the solution to cameras makes it only as safe as the safest human, which is fair.

Radar is pretty cheap for cars. LIDAR has similarly gotten pretty cheap. Being anti-LIDAR had at least some justification when LIDAR could only be had for thousands of dollars and saying we can't afford it. Being anti-RADAR was stupid from the moment that sentiment was expressed.

This is a stupid waste of time that could not have *possibly* earned them that much, a single ad in a very narrow context to a fairly small demographic. They risk their reputation on what has to be a relative pittance. Same on when they toyed with 'heated seats as a service'. A demographic that was probably happy to pay, but the annoyance was enough..

Similarly, GM has decided to move toward no support for phone interoperability. They are de-featuring cars that might be over $90,000 in the hopes that *maybe* people will accede to $10/month for the features their phone gives them already. Risking over $10k profit on a unit to have a somewhat higher chance at an additional $10/month.
