On May 22 at 00:56 UTC, an attacker gained root access to the forum's server.

The attacker was able to acquire KVM access credentials for the server.

After he got KVM access, the attacker convinced the ISP NFOrce that he was me (using his KVM access as part of his evidence) and said that he had locked himself out of the server. So NFOrce reset the server's root password for him, giving him complete access to the server and bypassing most of our carefully-designed security measures.

Idiocracy (2006) Time to watch it again.

I can top that with https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1MoHgT8y98Q

Want to tell you a story
'Bout a woman I know
When it comes to lovin'
Oh! She steals the show

She ain't exactly pretty
She ain't exactly small
Forty two, thirty nine, fifty six
You could say she got it all

This is much better. After all, the title of this threads says "talk." Exactly what we need... more talk and fewer pictures.

That is a little too much. Then all of a sudden we will see this all over the world if it works.
And we will have a lot of unimployed people

If the autonomous car is faulty and kills people, who will you hold responsible? Onboard CPU?

Well we might be losing the truck drivers but that will open a new job up again... Full Service gas stations.  Unless they make a robot that pumps the gas into these automated trucks 

The first question is is the type of people who would be displaced by this technology the same type who could shift to being lawyers and engineers? (My guess is the overlap of would-be truck drivers who could also be engineers or lawyers is very small.) The second question, taking for granted that the answer to number one is that truck drivers and highly educated/trained professionals are very interchangeable, is at what point are there too many engineers and lawyers for them to be productively creating value for the economy?

After watching the movie Idiocracy back in 2006 I told all my friends and family I felt like I just watched a documentary of our future and everyone thought I was crazy. Low and behold, not even a decade later, it seems much of it has already come to pass. After seeing music videos like, Nicki Minaj - Anaconda and I just watched another one Jennifer Lopez - Booty ft. Iggy Azalea, I was reminded of a scene within the movie Idiocracy of a movie called 'Ass'. I then did a search to see if I could find a YouTube video of that scene in the movie, but to my surprise I found it in the following article.

Anyone else feel like they're taking crazy pills?

I'm not justifying their actions, but we weren't there so we can't know the whole truth.   Everyone is quick to judge police in these situations but the truth is that they have to make life and death situations on a daily basis.  

It should be clear at a glance just how dependent the American economy is on truck drivers. According to the American Trucker Association, there are 3.5 million professional truck drivers in the US, and an additional 5.2 million people employed within the truck-driving industry who don’t drive the trucks. That’s 8.7 million trucking-related jobs.

We can’t stop there though, because the incomes received by these 8.2 million people create the jobs of others. Those 3.5 million truck drivers driving all over the country stop regularly to eat, drink, rest, and sleep. Entire businesses have been built around serving their wants and needs. Think restaurants and motels as just two examples. So now we’re talking about millions more whose employment depends on the employment of truck drivers. But we still can’t even stop there.

Those working in these restaurants and motels along truck-driving routes are also consumers within their own local economies. Think about what a server spends her paycheck and tips on in her own community, and what a motel maid spends from her earnings into the same community. That spending creates other paychecks in turn. So now we’re not only talking about millions more who depend on those who depend on truck drivers, but we’re also talking about entire small town communities full of people who depend on all of the above in more rural areas. With any amount of reduced consumer spending, these local economies will shrink.

One further important detail to consider is that truck drivers are well-paid. They provide a middle class income of about $40,000 per year. That’s a higher income than just about half (46%) of all tax filers, including those of married households. They are also greatly comprised by those without college educations.
