The FAA posted a a security update for the Picatinny area a few weeks ago. Now where did that come from? Some governmental org that wanted to do testing.
But the rest of government was unaware, so could honestly say they didn't know anything about the drone activity.
The scientific and social study of obesity has shown that it is a complex bodily disorder, the causes of which are multiple and varied, and may include genetic and epigenetic factors, diet and eating habits, socioeconomic status, and personal and social lifestyles.
Wtf?
Yes, there's a lot involved, but excusing away obesity as genetic ignores that 99% of it is behavioural. Just look at the explosion of Type II diabetes, which is pretty much all caused by diet.
Growing up, there were exactly 2 obese kids in our school, from first grade through 12th (across all grades). Those kids had a genetic cause to their obesity.
Today we have a much higher rate - I'm not buying that genetics drastically changed over the last few decades.
The elephant in the room is a combination of bullshit from governmental agencies (the lie of the food pyramid anyone?), nonsense from the medical community (fat in our diet isn't the driver of cardiovascular disease or obesity, it's unstable glucose, something that's been well known since the early 90's), pushing a high-carb diet in the 80's, which was a lie that ran counter to what doctors advised for diabetetics since the 1930's!
I dunno, laptops have gotten tremendously better - can run most of a day without power anymore. I certainly have charged my phone 3x as much as my laptop. And I already carry an external 10k Wh battery for my phone.
OP actually raises a good point about power consumption that I hadn't considered in a while.
NeoBackup only works if rooted, unfortunately. Well, unfortunately users don't have full control over iOS and Android without having to sidestep stuff.
Laptops are arguably potentially far more secure. Most mobile apps collect every bit of data they can (and have internet access for no reason) , and mobile devices have standardized ways of enabling it - how often other apps are launched, what other apps are installed, etc, etc. PC OS's don't have that stuff built in, and apps rarely have that kind of code. Plus they're just easier to firewall (as much of a nuisance as it is to do. Hell, GCM was built to do most of this stuff.
Syncthing-Fork on a PC/Mac, Möbius Sync on the iOS device (it's $5). Worth the five bucks. I keep multiple phones, hundreds of gigs syncing with Syncthing. It just works.
Edit: Syncthing-Fork is for Android, SyncTrayzor for Windows, Möbius for iOS, Syncthing for Mac.
And they won't work anymore with the retirement of analog years ago, 2G years ago, and now 3G for consumer use (I'm assuming that phone was analog/2G).
Unlocked boot definitely costs more.
There's also swappa, but I've had best luck on ebay. Some sellers are very clear about unlocked bootloader.
