*mind blown*

Given that the article itself is behind a paywall, the least the summary could do was mention the agreed-upon height.

Maybe they are using an eventually consistent document database for replication. Just hope your transaction doesnâ(TM)t become an eventuality :)

What about brown people? I speak excellent English, even if I say so myself. Most speech recognition systems still struggle with my pronunciations - so I guess I don't speak good American (white). If the paper analyzed just white and black accents, it left the brown ones out.

Practically, how can I know more about factory conditions of a product before I buy that product? Is there an ethics group that tracks retailers, and publishes its findings?

What about Firefox Focus? It operates in private mode only - does the latest Firefox release have better privacy protection than Focus?

I hope someone does the same for cigarette companies - if anything, they are worse since they targeted more people.

We only want what's best for you.

The only reason I would trust this device is if it didn't have a network adapter. Once it is online, it is open to hacking attacks.

You're mixing up vegans with vegetarians. And while eggs don't count as vegetarian food, I know plenty of vegetarians who are okay with the idea of eggs.

*Sigh* At least on Slashdot, you'd think people would comment on the technical chops to do what ISRO does, rather than try and be funny about Indians doing what American companies pay them money to do.

Sure, but that isn't what this lawsuit is about. It sounds like eBay is accusing Amazon of using eBay resources to lure sellers away from eBay. Amazon is alleged to have created eBay accounts to do this, which is a violation of eBay's policies. If Amazon had setup a big board on 101 encouraging sellers to move from eBay, that might be okay - but eBay may have a case here.

When the heck did that happen? I suppose that is what happens when you rely on your Linux distribution to provide Thunderbird, but still, I'd expect something that links off mozilla.org. I looked, and https://www.mozilla.org/thunde... redirects to https://www.thunderbird.net/en... so its good, but my first reaction was - is this safe?
