People have done just that using the Xbox Kinect. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmMzc2-ray0

Max range for birdshot is ~120 feet so a drone can just increase its altitude and be safe. Also you have to be aware of what is beyond your target which might not be possible in an urban environment.

YNAB recommends the manual entry of purchases to better understand the relationship between the things you buy and your money. This has helped me be much less impulsive and more aware of the large money sinks in my life (lunch!). Whatever setup works for you to help you budget though, it is great software.

The show Community has a good bit about this when a character names a pencil then breaks it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z906aLyP5fg

Certainly a good way to stop all work at a company until those emails go out.

I don't know if you can give the credit to tech companies, but Ireland is keeping more of it young people in the country after a decade of emmigration and brain drain. Their more progressive attitudes probably have something to do with it.

I guess 155 years is still "too soon" for you?

Maybe take a lesson from a mosh pit too and if you see a stranger fall, pull them to their feet ASAP.

I've cracked WEP on the first version on a Raspberry Pi very quickly (~5 minutes).

4 US Senators and 5 US Mayors are allegedly on the list (http://pastebin.com/Yh2muT9r). Not much evidence besides taking an anonymous person's word for it though.

Or make energy consumption more efficient?

Pretty bare on any information about this at all.

FoxTrax was basically a bandaid because hockey is really hard to watch in my opinion without an HD TV. The k zone is interesting too because non-fans of baseball I've talked to seem to really like it because the strike zone is very mystifying.

The best "dad jokes" on TV are on Modern Family. I got a good laugh from this Dunphy as a Service.

I think there is a massive shift in this though. The rise of indie games, niche crowdfunded games, easier tools to create means people are making games for art and not the AAA paycheck.

Refugees and immigrants are "invaders" now.

This has to be the most simplistic, nationalistic, view of history I've ever read. Ignoring that throughout history it is extremely common for groups to leave their countries and settle elsewhere when it becomes oppressive, for example America...

This has the arabic and persian(I think?) versions. It confused me why it would be in english at first.

Steam and the indie game community. No longer do players have to pay $50 to MAYBE get a playable game, they can pay $10 and get just as much game play from an indie dev.

Partly, there are a lot of foundationals you could teach someone that would make a good improvement upfront though. Paragraph structure, how to formulate an argument, how to use quotes or data to support your thesis and the most important... REREAD WHAT YOU WROTE. Too many people hit send after vomiting on a page and thinking that is that.

It still could be sexism, it's a gender neutral term even though it is mostly applicable to women.

> Prisons like the Maryland facility featured in the hit podcast “Serial” sign exclusive contracts with companies like Global Tel-Link, and receive a cut of the proceeds from each call, creating an incentive to raise rates as much as possible.

Cause the prison makes $$$.

I really like the Home Theater but I really think the killer feature would be adding Netflix/Amazon/Hulu seamlessly. I know they've tried but have limited success.

This is basically the same thing as the Subway guy. He restricted his calories, fulfilled his nutrient goals and, most importantly, started walking a lot more.

The comments I've seen on social media surrounding this article have to be some of the worst ever, even for internet comments.

For awhile it was illegal: http://www.paloaltoonline.com/news/2014/11/18/palo-alto-stri...

> The debate, a spokeswoman for The Times said, prompted a fresh flood of readers to the original article.

They're shooting themselves in the foot with all this.

> I know one smoker who switched to vaping before going back to smoking because he found it hard to limit his vaping (because number of cigarettes is easier to measure)

This was my problem. Went to vaping to quit and ended up making the addiction worse because it is really easy to mindless puff away. I've seen newer models with USB that you can limit the number a draws on though so that might be a good option.

I think one of his best features is his follow through too. Real good journalistic nose for following a lead.

Read through Kreb's archive, he has screenshots and more info. If I remember correctly one was on the clearnet but required some sort of verification before you got access.
