I think that the Flipper Zero is being unfairly attacked here. You can also make a fake hotspot using a laptop or even a Raspberry Pi. There’s nothing unique about the Flipper Zero here. Maybe if the Flipper Zero was used a NFC key to open the car, then it could be a story.

Sometimes a sleek, fancy computer interface carries an illusion of safety, but more often than not, the extra layers of complexity make us more vulnerable

“I’m not donating money to either candidate” doesn’t mean “I’m not donating Trump money for his appeal bond” or “I’m not loaning Trump money.”

woosh.

Denis is kind of an asshole here. Fans want to see these characters, and they were filmed so just put the scenes on bonus features like everyone else does.

How should I have been able to figure out this would be yet another fucking slideshow bullshit piece of shit fake article? Answer: it says “7" in the headline.

Google terminated that contract

I’m not saying they shouldn’t earn more, but if their paycheck is from a contracting firm, they should negotiate with that company to get increased pay. Most of those companies pay less than 50% of the billable rate. I know some of that goes to benefits and overhead (like paying my boss), but when all they are selling…

Am I the only one who read that these are not google employees... Gizmodo has a hard on for attacking google.

Glad I’m not the only one who thought wait a minute, this ain’t that.

Slightly confused on this getting Google to the table, part - they are Cognizant employees, not Google employees.  They are/were on the Cognizant contract with Google and Google terminated that contract.  Not sure how this is a Google dealing with Unions thing when these aren’t Google employees.  What am I missing?

Yeah this is garbage clickbait. Can someone point to a single example ever of a major corporation collectively bargaining with the employees of their vendor?

“Cognizant shared a statement with Gizmodo that disputes the claim that the workers were laid off: “Nobody was laid off yesterday,” the statement reads. “A contract expired and the Austin-based employees are still Cognizant employees.”

This article makes me hate google, but I’d have loved to know more about:

$300 per month phone bill = $10 per day for a 30 day period.  12 hr outage = $5 value.  Pretty sure the average customer isn’t paying $300/month either, so $5 is an overestimation.  

Just to be clear, this is a “would you re-buy your car survey” and not a “will your next car be the same” survey. Correct? In other words, it’s a satisfaction survey, not a loyalty survey. Seems there is some confusion in the comments.

we’re reaching previously unseen levels of inventing a guy to get mad at on the internet.

that got me a round of congratulations from Marvel brass that pumped my chest out farther than Captain America’s!

The cancellation of Westworld in 2022 came as a shock for multiple reasons. HBO’s marquis lineup of prestige dramas have generally gotten to end on their own terms, and the sci-fi show seemed like it was hoping for one last season to tie everything together.

No, literally no, but it is hyperbola. Like if somebody wrote the headline “Poison Detected in McDonald’s Hamburgers”, and the story read “arsenic was discovered in testing of samples of McDonalds hamburger, the samples averaged 3 parts per billion, well under the threshold for safety set by the CDC.
