You can also tap the power button five times in a row, which brings up the emergency screen (Power Off, Medical ID, SOS call), but also disables face recognition until a pin unlock has happened.
If you're not aware of it, you might want to look into Qubes[0], it's an OS that uses virtualisation tech to compartmentalise applications from each other (and the host OS). So you can use your browser of choice for all uses, just in different VMs configured to retain/discard data as you want.
It's in the scene in the hotel lift - Hackman gets Smith to remove various things, and stuffs the trackers in a foil crisp (aka chip) packet, and the techs lose tracking on them.
Cosmic rays causing the errors has got me thinking about if the error rates vary with the time.
Do you get more/less errors when it's day time (due to the Sun)? Does the season affect it (axial tilt means you're more/less "in view" of the galactic core)?
Same here, I have a Linux Mint desktop set up for my kids and overall I'm happy with the performance. It hasn't been 100% smooth though. In particular updating from Mint 17 to Mint 18 took some effort to get things working properly. Maybe proprietary Nvidia drivers were to blame, but it didn't Just Work until I sat down with it and sorted things out.
Not that I'm saying that Debian is a better choice than Ubuntu here – Debian stable is Debian stable, and Ubuntu often contains stuff still considered experimental on Debian side – but unlike with, say, Fedora, many non-free drivers are included in the official repositories.
It looks like there'll be further models after the Three:
"I'm super excited about being able to produce a car that most people can afford," Musk said. "And there will be future cars that are even more affordable down the road."
"With something like the Model 3, it's designed such that roughly half the people can afford the car," he continued. "With fourth generation and smaller cars and what not, we'll ultimately be in the position where almost everyone will be able to afford the car."
I've got a couple of cheap VPS's with OpenVPN installed and the bandwidth/latency is best described as "intermittent", as there'll be a lost of hosts sharing it on the low end ones.
NordVPN is one I keep seeing talked about, so I'll be looking into them this weekend :)
I heard good things about NordVPN and ExpressVPN. I've been using PIA for a year and it's about to expire - hence trying to decide what is next!
Advantages of a service seem to be location switching, good apps, cheap, and IP mixing.
Disadvantages are that you have to trust them not to keep logs, and lots of Cloudflare captchas, and they would seem like a good target for being compromised by the government.
Much as I'd like to think that signing this would make a difference, it won't :(
Theresa May has been pushing for this legislation (or variants thereof) for years now. The existing powers which this bill replaces expire at the end of the year, and so the line "We cannot allow {terrorists|child pornographers|money launderers} a safe space to hide online" will be trotted out, and anyone arguing against it will be labelled soft on terror, and unpatriotic...
Eh, don't be too quick to write off the idea of activism here.
Expressing your opposition to this bill is important even if you don't believe there's a real chance of it being overturned.
In 6 months, snoopers will probably ask politicians for more power, and politicians will look back on what happened today. We want them to remember that it was difficult and had a high cost in political capital. Not that they snuck it in and everyone rolled over instantly.
