Really? Send them to me. The cables they come with are always really nice and I know they'll support the data rates and powers the device can use.

That's what they've said about every disruptive technology since the beginning of time.

I'm against it being shoved down our throats at every opportunity for a quick buck, but it's very much an active area of research.

You'd be foolish to think there's no innovation or imlrovements to be made.

Again, most of those are targeted attacks on individuals. E.g. student mad at X person and gets revenge.

Much different from the columbine-like terroristic ones. E.g. killing anyone and everyone they can.

I wonder if bowlers felt like that about electronic scoring?

Starlink satelites are about 341 miles above earth, on average. https://uk.finance.yahoo.com/news/starlink-everything-know-network-satellites-151511672.html

Ozone layer is 9-18 miles above earth's surface. https://www.epa.gov/ozone-layer-protection/basic-ozone-layer-science

you remember incorrectly.

Almost everyone would be good with it if the crime were murder or sone sex thing.

But like you point out, the data could be sold. It's going to be in data leaks soon enough. And who knows what happens if the government you live under gets fascist.

I haven't seen that in any official reports yet. Mind sharing where you saw that?

I hate my job... (lemmy.world)

My job is so fucking unbelievable.

I'll try to sum it up by first telling you about the folks I work with:

First, there is this supermodel wanna-be chick. Yeah, okay, she is pretty hot, but damn is she completely useless. The girl is constantly fixing her hair or putting on makeup. She is extremely self-centered and has never once considered the needs or wants of anyone but herself. She is as dumb as a box of rocks, and I still find it surprising that she has enough brain power to continue to breathe.

The next chick is completely the opposite. She might even be one of the smartest people on the planet. Her career opportunities are endless, and yet she is here with us. She is a zero on a scale of 1 to 10. I'm not sure she even showers, much less shaves her "womanly" parts. I think she might be a lesbian, because every time we drive by the hardware store, she moans like a cat in heat.

But the jewel of the crowd has got to be the fucking stoner. And this guy is more than just your average pothead. In fact, he is baked before he comes to work, during work, and I'm sure after work. He probably hasn't been sober anytime in the last ten years, and he's only 22. He dresses like a beatnik throwback from the 1960's, and to make things worse, he brings his big fucking dog to work. Every fucking day I have to look at this huge Great Dane walk around half-stoned from the second-hand smoke. Hell, sometimes I even think it's trying to talk with its constant bellowing. Also, both of them are constantly hungry, requiring multiple stops to McDonalds and Burger King, every single fucking day.

Anyway, I drive these fucktards around in my van and we solve mysteries and shit.
