Errrr, that doesn't sound very secure to me.

First if all, what happened to anonymity for minors in legal matters? They named the kid in the alerts! Secondly, how is this a public safety issue? I think its a wonderful thing that we can have a public broadcast alert system that will warn me of imminent threats to public safety such as tornadoes, terrorism, or big rocks falling from space. But a missing child does not qualify as a public safety issue in my opinion.

Most software sucks ass because its rushed out the door before its ready. Software must be the only business that requires you to purchase a subscription to be able to receive patches that fix the shitty software you already paid for. What a bloody scam! Why cant we have quality software?

So very true. Unfortunately I dont see an end to this. Unless we can drastically improve our education systems to find talent and train it for real world tech jobs I think weve pretty much reached peak skill level. Tech is HARD and MOST PEOPLE suck at it. We need more people who DONT SUCK but alas, the breeding rate among morons is much higher than intelligent folks, because well, breeding isnt really the smartest thing to do is it? So many people get into tech because there are plenty of jobs and the pay is decent. These are all the wrong reasons and these people should be marginalized and flushed out of the system so we can focus our energy on developing the people who are actually capable of getting the work done efficiently and with a good amount of quality.

We all benefit from others being vaccinated, and being that it is more or less mandatory we should (but currently do not) have a compensation program in place for those who suffer from vaccine injury. In fact we gave a precedent set by the Supreme Court of Canada that the state cannot be held responsible. https://scc-csc.lexum.com/scc-...

The coffee tastes like crap, is an environmental nightmare and is far less cost effective than previous methods. Are we really that busy that we don't have 2-3 minutes to brew a shot of espresso and steam some milk?/For fucks sake people COME ON. If you own or regularly use one of these machines, please do us all a favour and off yourself!

Yes it was a bad analogy, what i meant to say was the licencing is necessary to ensure quality of service but the exorbitant licencing fees are not necessary. The spectrum licenses are sold to the highest bidder (for billions of dollars) the cost of which is passed on to the consumer, which is literally taxing end users on thin air.
