A developer account is required but it's not hard to get at all. I don't think it would be very hard at all for LMG to make a flash briefing skill.

Hey there! So I have a suggestion for the TechLinked team. Every morning when I wake up I ask my Amazon Alexa to play me my Flash Briefing. It gives me a news update from a few publications I have selected such as CNN and CNET. I would love to be able to listen to the latest TechLinked episode in my Flash Briefing. Basically, you would just have to upload the audio from the episode each time a new one is published. Let me know what you guys think. And does anyone else actually use the Flash Briefing feature?

Couldn't limiting the sale of drones to licensed operators at least make obtaining the drones harder? I'm not saying this is something in favor of, but it's not something I'm completely against. It may be a bit annoying for enthusiasts... but it could be worth it. I think this is getting so much media attention because this type of thing is new. I feel it's important to highlight the risks of new technology. Also, there has to be a reason they haven't taken the drones down yet. It could be that the technology needed is hard to deploy.

A few things I want to add after reading some of the responses: In the United States, the FAA requires anyone flying a drone for commercial purposes to have a FAA Part 107 certificates. To get this, you must be 16 years old and pass a test (which you must pay to take). I wouldn't be surprised if the FAA extended this to anyone flying recreationally as well. Personally, I don't think it would be a huge deal. After all, if you can afford to purchase one of the larger, more high-end drones, you should be able to pay the nominal fee. As for the interpretation of the term "industrial drone" used in this article, I wouldn't be surprised if they are referring to high-end drones such as those made by DJI, but they could also mean more military style drones. I also don't understand why they don't just shoot the drones down. There is technology out there that will jam the droned. I got to see the Army's version of this, a gun shaped mechanism with an antenna at the end. It sends out a signal that forces the drone to land. I'd imagine that Britain has similar technology. Also, why aren't signal jammers installed at all airports? Maybe it messes with the plane's systems, I'm not sure. I'm not exactly sure how this technology works, but you can learn more about it here: https://www.armytimes.com/news/your-army/2018/11/14/this-army-fires-experiment-covers-detection-jamming-drone-kill-chains-and-new-ways-to-shoot-artillery/.

The fact that Apple is promoting this partnership so much makes me wonder what is in store for the HomePod's future. I wouldn't have thought that they would cancel the device, but this makes it hard not to at least consider the possibility. It would still be strange though, as this us just the start of the "smart home revolution". I don't use Apple Music, or any Apple products for that matter, but I'm still happy Amazon is expanding Alexa's functionality. I have an Echo Dot, and even though I don't use it that much, it's great for playing music. Source: https://www.macrumors.com/2018/12/19/more-alexa-speakers-will-support-apple-music/

I wonder what the purpose of this attack was. Because there were numerous drones, and they were of industrial specification, it can't be just a few kids wanting to mess around. Drones seem to be becoming an even greater threat to public safety. Obviously this is something that governments should be taking a closer look at. I'm interested to see if drone regulations are tightened in the coming years. It wouldn't surprise me at all.

Definitely a welcome change from Twitter. I can stand this trend of social media platforms moving away from the reverse-chronological timeline. The only platform where I find it acceptable is Facebook. All we need now is the ability to edit tweets.

Ooooooo. I like this one.

I like the banner, but the logo is way to busy. I prefer the old branding over this. This simply isn't the kind of work I'd expect from a professional graphic designer. Just my opinion though, it couls be what the LTT guys were going for.

You know that you don't need heat spreaders right?

What's your budget? I highly doubt you'll be able to get anything that powerful for a low price.

It should work as long as it fits and your PSU has an available 8-pin connector.

Yeah, it's a pain to go through the process of getting a refund.

This seems to good to be true. I avoid buying computer parts, or anything of value, off of eBay. If you must though, I suggest purchasing from a reputable seller (unlike this one, who has no feedback). Craigslist, the LTT classifieds, and r/hardwareswap are much better options. If you do choose to purchase your RAM from this seller, let us know how it goes.

Nah, forgot to add "Fall" at the end. Thank god for post editing, Twitter should take notes.
