Story at Daily Mail.

There are over a billion Muslims. Mostly in India and Indonesia. If you don't think that the ones committing all the violence are a fringe group, then you are vastly underestimating the damage a billion people could do, if they really wanted to.

Based on polls, it isn't fringe group of muslims who support violence. By definition, fringe group would constitute a fraction of a percentage of the people. Here's just a sampling of the opinion polls:

Pew Global: 68% of Palestinian Muslims say suicide attacks against civilians in defense of Islam are justified.
43% of Nigerian Muslims say suicide attacks against civilians in defense of Islam are justified.
38% of Lebanese Muslims say suicide attacks against civilians in defense of Islam are justified.
15% of Egyptian Muslims say suicide attacks against civilians in defense of Islam are justified.
13% of Indonesian Muslims say suicide attacks against civilians in defense of Islam are justified.
12% of Jordanian Muslims say suicide attacks against civilians in defense of Islam are justified.
7% of Muslim Israelis say suicide attacks against civilians in defense of Islam are justified.

According to a report from The Verge, Clippy disappeared from both locations just a day after being introduced at the behest of what one source called the 'brand police.'

Who, the deplorables? The cultural distance between progressives and working class people is now vast and I see little reason why that should change.

The fact that you believe that working class people and progressives are automatically disjoint sets is well part of the problem. There have been so many lies for so long that you have "working class people" defending insane policies. The fact that someone with this home could put on a hat and make working class people think, he's my guy, is so insane as to be practically the definition. Of course his first step to make people think he was their guy was to first start an insane racist lie about the then president. After all to much of his base, well, hating on the uppity black man just proves his credentials, much the same way not denying David Duke did. Add in Charlottesville and he pretty much got a home run in his racist credentials checklist.

Some scientist who've worked in the industry have been bullied, forced to resign, and generally shunned over doing just what you said.

I dislike facebook as much as the next nerd (and no I don't use it), but this sounds a bit like tinfoil hattery.

Appears to be true. According to CBS, if you delete your Facebook account then your data is deleted but not the logs or any data connected with you generated by others. According to Daily Mail, Facebook once did a study on who self censors using what people went to post but then didn't.

The idea that people can read and understand terms and conditions is ridiculous. The idea that people knowingly agree to Ts and Cs is a lie. The Ts&Cs are too long for even a lawyer to read:

Read and get all the details buried in a document longer than Hamlet, including all the little nuances? Not realistic.

Hence why these documents are not enforceable in court. In the UK you have the legal concept of the "reasonable man" and that any contract must be understandable by the reasonable man in order to be enforceable. At best they protect the company against being sued by their customers, but even then it doesn't magically indemnify them, especially against consumer rights.

Crowdstrike story

They have a history of blaming Russia for every hack even if Russia was not involved. They have 2 big cases where they falsely blamed Russia, one a hack in the Ukraine, the second the DNC email server. That's right, the DNC server that the FBI never examined, we were told was hacked by Russia by Comey. Well the people who told him admitted they lied, before Comey came out and told Congress under oath.

So Crowdstrike yelling "RUSSIA!!!" isn't new. Them providing proof would be.

Yeah, the linked article can't even manage to be factually accurate at the most basic level. For example, Men are a majority now? Nope.

There is no institutional bias against men? The author of the article has apparently never heard of schools, or universities, who literally advertise that they don't accept men for everything from scholarships to groups and centers paid for by male student fees.

Oh man, and is this ever causing a problem. Males are a marked minority among college students https://www.theatlantic.com/ed... and getting worse.

Very little attention ois being paid to this at the college level, I suspect that it is considered a little less of a problem for the victims - but it is the beginnings of a real problem. The path chosen for modern women is to get a degree, then work until your mid 30's early 40's, then find a husband and immediately start fertility treatments in order to have a child.

But these ladies are having a problem finding a male that meets their expectation. To Google "where have all the good men gone brings up a plethora of results. Most often posed by women, discussed by women, and solutions proposed by women. And usually with a fine smattering of misandry.

When in fact, the qualifications for a "good man" means a college education, having their own place, making more than her, and then there are the physical qualifications. Tall, handsome, ripped. Then there are the life choice demands, which are to be ready to immediately start fertility treatments in a race against the clock.

Oh-ohhh, that college education demand. As we are nearing a 75 to 25 Percent female versus male degree status, right away we have a severe problem.

Coupled with the other demands, these women are going to have a real problem finding mates. A male that fits their demands is probably not looking for a woman of that age and is not looking to become a father at such a late age.

Probably the best article about the problem is https://www.dailymail.co.uk/fe...

Even then, the article starts out: "Where have all the good men gone? These sassy, sophisticated, solvent women say they are struggling to find other halves that can measure up.

No shit.

Oh, so one of the ingredients of the urine bricks is "nutrients"?

Also sand might be very abundant in total, but sand appropriate for building with is much less abundant - river and beach sand work and there have been articles on Slashdot in the past about sand piracy and blackmarket sand. Desert sand, of which there is a huge abundance, is not appropriate, because it's too small and light.

Rather than some 'urine bricks', I'd be more interested if someone had found a way to make desert sand useful in construction.

Yeah, I'm going to build a house with piss-bricks, full of bacteria, and organic nutrients for the bacteria to eat. As well - you are spot on about the sand. There's actually a building grade sand shortage.

Seriously - what is with some people? We're supposed to eat bugs because they are so yummy, live in places that probably smell like old urine in sleazy uncleaned bar restrooms, made with materials stuffed with urine, bacteria and food for the bacteria to work their magic.

Next they'll be tellling us to stand behind cows and let them piss on us and bathe in it because the piss comes out sterile. Caution for the squeamish - image actually shows this. https://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pi...

Look sustainable people. I'm on your side. But if you ask me to live in conditions that are really unsanitary, ya gotta talk to the hand.

Roger Stone is indicted for blatantly lying before congress and witness tampering.

That would be fair if the law was applied equally, but when are they going to arrest any Democrat for blatantly lying before Congress about running arms to al-Qaeda and Mexican drug lords, giving $billions to Iran, having the GCHQ spy on the opposing party's candidates, or any of a half dozen other scandals that would have gotten anyone other than America's First Black President impeached and possibly hanged for treason, or "witness tampering" Michael Hastings, FBI Anon, the DNC's "Russian hacker", and several pizzagate investigators and sources?

There has been two years of noise about possible Russian interference in the election because Donald Trump did business with the Russians as part of an FBI sting operation that got a Russian bank sanctioned. When are they going to talk about Qatari interference in the election? Do you remember the "Safe Space" campaign a few years ago or the appearance of "Social Justice" "feminists" who never badmouthed Islam but tried to tell you that Hamas was a feminist group? That was them. Have you heard of Common Core? That was also a Qatari operation by the same people who put Jamal Khashoggi at the Washington Post.

To be honest, I've not had that for years. Yes it was very worrying, because what the hell was it? Brake dust, with added asbestos for extra flavour? Carbon from the electrics? Luckily the new trains don't seem to be anywhere near as dirty as the old ones, so black snot is a thing of the past.

I find it hard to imagine that they used to run steam trains burning coal through these tunnels. How disgusting would that have been! :-O

We just have settle for a gif of the four-story doors to the cafeteria.

If I'm on a plane and the transponder has an electrical fault and begins to start sparking and smoking I damn well want the cockpit crew to be able to pull the breaker and kill power to it.

If aeronautics engineers ditch one of the redundant fuel pumps, they could make find room for a second transponder.

Then, when one transponder sparks, and the crew pulls the breaker, you have a standard malfunction (location of plane is still known).

However, when the second transponder is depowered, the "under ATC direction" light goes off in the passenger cabin, a nearby superpower with supersonic flight scrambles the appropriate bird, and satellites with infrared imaging capability begin snapping photos like mad around the last position reported.

The transatlantic jet trails visible from space: How 'contrails' can stay in the sky for up to 14 hours — June 2012

That one is in the visual, but why not the infrared? How hard can it be to detect recently condensed steam against a backdrop of minus damn cold?

Simple solution, but perhaps someone will end up regretting that missing fail-safe fuel pump, though at least you'll know where it touched down.

No. That just sets a new standard that if the President refuses to sign a CR then eventually they will get their way.

Note that I did not say "pass the wall" from the standpoint of saying if that is good or bad.

I said that from the standpoint of tactics only - Trump is not going to back down, and is actually helped the longer the shutdown goes on.

So the only way to move forward is to fund the wall to some degree (Trump would be willing to bargain downward somewhat).

How does the sound of the government being shut down for an entire year sound? Because I can easily see that being the case. This with the full support of almost all Trump's base that sees a lot of benefit of the government cracking up and many employees leaving government as the shutdown wears on... that would truly be some fundamental change that many Trump voters were after, done the hard way.

It's not like I don't have some connection to this and these are all just abstract thoughts, my wife works in the federal government and would probably be affected. So believe me when I say, I am just reporting what I think will happen, not what I would prefer happen.

I hate to break the news to ya Sparky but even one of the founders of the #metoo movement was caught paying off someone for sexually harassing them so its not just guys, in fact I've seen a lot more females pulling sexual no-nos the past few years than I've seen dudes.

Yeah, 'temporarily dismissed' for 6 months? Who gives a shit. Oh but furloughed for 3 weeks, THE HUMANITY!

Some will take the buyout offers, some will be 'transferred' and some will be 'temporarily' dismissed (all of them will be rehired after 6 months, I pinky promise, I'm CEO of megacorporation why would I lie?) so 'there will be zero job losses'. Yeah, not buying it. But when the inevitable layoff happens, nobody will care about that article. They'll just blame Trump.

That looks similar to the mockups but differs in major ways. I haven't seen any real photos, just mockups and diagrams. Ie, see: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sc...

I suspect what you have a picture of is an early test module or something whipped up for publicity purposes.

Bioaccumulation occurs when an organism absorbs a substance at a rate faster than that at which the substance is lost by catabolism and excretion.

See that part about excretion? That's what happens with water, unless you drink too much too fast, at a rate above your excretion rate, and it accumulates and kills you.

It really sucks, but we have a history of letting people go when it's politically expedient...

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6426219/Parliament-seizes-Facebook-internal-papers-Mark-Zuckerbergs-refusal-answer-questions.html

The secret cache is believed to include emails between Mark Zuckerberg and other executives that shows the firm knew about flaws in its privacy policy and allowed them to be actively exploited.

MPs discovered the documents were in the possession of an American software executive visiting London on a business trip and sent an official from the House of Commons to his hotel to retrieve them.

He was given two hours to hand them over to an appointee of Kamal El-Hajji, the House of Common's serjeant-at-arms, who is responsible for the security of the parliamentary estate.

However the executive refused, and was then hauled to Parliament and warned he could face imprisonment if he did not comply.

Damian Collins, chairman of the Commons Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) Committee, told the BBC: 'We felt this [information] was highly relevant to the inquiry... and therefore we sent an order to Mr [Ted] Kramer through the serjeant at arms asking that these documents be supplied to us. Ultimately, that order was complied with.'

There are photos of phalanxes of unsold Tesla automobiles parked outside.

The most likely explanation is that they were being stockpiled to maximize the number of U.S. customers who could benefit from the expiring "FIT" credit of $7500. By stockpiling the cars, Tesla was able to not cross the 200,000 unit number in 2018 Quarter 2 ending June 30. Crossing that statutory number in Q3 didn't count against the credit, hence Tesla ran their factory 24/7 so the cars they made plus inventory met the sales rush from the phased-out credit. There is also full credit in Q4 after which the credit is reduced by half by 2019, and so on.

Many Tesla critics pointed to these cars stored at airport or industrial park lots as baking in the California sun with attendant degradation. But we now know that proud owners of Tesla cars were spared having to inhale to toxic fumes of the New Car Smell.

There have been a number of comments here about the "secret" secure room in San Francisco where Internet traffic is snooped. When General Alexander was head of the NSA (where he built a replica of the Star Trek bridge with taxpayer money for his commmand) he issued the directive to "Collect it all!"

The "room" was in AT&T's facility, not Google's, and tapped a major Internet backbone link. It's been known and documented for years. See the deposition of Mark Klein dated June 8, 2006, formerly of AT&T (class action suit led by EFF vs AT&T: C-06-0672-VRW in US District Court, Northern District of California). He describes the sequence of events, persons, locations, equipment, and details involved in installing the tap of all Internet traffic passing through the fiber lines at the AT&T location at 611 Folsom St., San Francisco, and sending them to room 641A, designated a secret locked "secure room." More technical details, diagrams, and photos here but note that all this info is VERY OLD - 13 years old!

All the major telcos participated in the program back then except Qwest which (as noted by drinkypoo above directly resulted in the destruction of that company (they lost major government contracts) and 6 years in prison for its CEO Joseph Nacchio (for relying on those contracts). Nacchio was finally released from prison in 2013 after serving the full 6 years. The telcos were later granted immunity by congress and other cases have been quashed on grounds of lack of standing because evidence would impinge on national security. Perhaps it seemed all too technical and abstract at the time for people to pay attention but the news has been out there for a long time. We can only imagine where things stand today.

I noticed Google down just as it started and when I checked I found that Spectrum (which still uses rr.com for naming) was sending all Google bound traffic to Tata communications (an Indian Company) which sent it over to Europe on its circuits then Transtelecom in South Africa,which moved it to Chinanet.

Mishandling secret documents is a grave offense, even if nobody broke into the server. Spoiler alert: foreign intelligence agencies were all over it. It was a windows server computer and the program was **Microsoft remote desktop**. No shell requirement to get into her shit. It was that **easy**.

The only reason the Clintons were not frog marched in cuffs for numerous felonies over the years was the swamp and the fact that the elites in both parties have been covering for each other for decades. Ask any active duty military. If they had done what Hillary did with her email server and classified emails, they would be in jail. Just like Reality Winner. Nearly all politicians are crooked, but to try to claim that the Clintons are not outright mobsters is laughable to anyone who has been paying attention. Hell, Bill Clinton straight up raped several women and got away with it.

Those brokers are not nearly as dangerous as things like Google buying access to MasterCard's data. Facebook and MasterCard also appear to have bidirectional sharing agreement.

If you don't touch that, it's like fighting the drug war while conspicuously avoiding ever moving on the cartels and focusing only on street dealers and their suppliers.

They don't really do that any more; in order to make it seem more fair they've just lowered standards across the board. There are numerous example of this, such as: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/ne...

I saw the same thing in the Canadian military. Initially (for some 20 years) women had significantly lower standards than men. This understandably led to a lot of grumbling and discontent amongst the ranks. So the whole testing program was eventually revamped, and the standards for everyone were made the same ... which, in an effort to try and get/retain more women, resulted in the physical fitness testing being a complete joke. The standards are so low now that essentially nobody ever fails, and the "test" in no way actually reflects the requirements of the job.

There might be a slight difference between executing (different than murder) someone who was themselves a mass murderer after they've sat in prison for decades and have had several rounds of appeals as opposed to executing someone for homosexuality, being a women's rights activist, or allegedly practicing sorcery. If you're lucky you might even be crucified.

Also, not all U.S. states have a death penalty, and of those that do, many don't use the electric chair. Wikipedia indicates that some states allow convicted criminals to choose it if they so want, but that there aren't a lot of states actually using it. Most of it is by lethal injection, and I'd say that there are probably more humane ways than that to kill a person if you're going to do it. Nitrous oxide asphyxiation seems like a pretty painless way to me, and probably a hell of a lot less expensive.

That changes quickly when people actually do hard work or exercise.

Bottom line the strength difference with males and females of same weight is pretty low. Females have it harder to gain muscles. Absolute strength is often lower, so is speed. But the differences are not that big. E.g. as soon as skills come into account, e.g. in martial arts, underestimating a woman is a big mistake. Same in archery or horsemanship. Sure, if I was sailing on a an cup america race, I would prefer heavy muscled men.

The differences? https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sp...

In Soccer, the top women's teams regularly lose to barely post pubescent boys. I've coached Ice Hockey, and the girls are slower, and overall less aggressive. So it doesn't take much analysis to know that a Bantam Male Ice Hockey team would mop the ice with the women's Olympic team. We had a young woman on my son's Midget Hockey team (High school level) and we all loved her, and she had game and we respected her for that., but she was a couple steps slower. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when she decided to go to a girl team, where she excelled.

And it is terribly unfair that folks of your ilk seem to minimize the differences between males in females in sports. It's completely unfair to the women, as they deserve to enjoy competition too. NOw I suppose that in a wolrd where gender differences are merely a social construct, all would be equal. But trans girls now clean up in girls sports - https://www.louderwithcrowder.... https://nypost.com/2018/02/25/...

But since gender is a social construct, we have no choice but ti cherish our trans athletes. Side note: this inevitable strength difference is why feminist/trans supporters want to suppress puberty in the males they convince are females. https://www.transgendertrend.c... Once the genetic fact of puberty happens, males will become males. Kinda creepy though that you have to enforce ideology by altering nature. .

BTW: the mounted archers and mounted spear riders of Rohan in the "Lord of the Rings" movie, that are mostly women.

You seriously used a LOTR refernce to prove some sort of point? You actually went there.

It's not like Google sat on the Google+ bugs for 6 months until their logs were automatically deleted.

But managers at the company chose not to go public with the bug because they worried that it would invite scrutiny from regulators, particularly in the wake of Facebook's recent security bungle.

Thus violating breach disclosure laws, likely including those in the EU...

Just because you don't have an FB account, don't feel safe. Someone may be impersonating you.

Go to Google search and enter the search string

Replace "Your Name" with your actual name. If your name is common, you'll obviously get some false positives. A similar search can be done for LinkedIn, MySpace, whatever by inserting the appropriate domain in the "site:" reference..

Thirty years ago we were told the Maldives were going to disappear by now, from Climate Change and sea level rise. In fact, the Maldives Cabinet met underwater to highlight their plight. However, they obviously are still there considering they just expanded their airport.

So before we consider the claims from a given set of models projecting sometime in the future, let's look at the accuracy of their previous claims. If they weren't very accurate (as we're seeing with this and 95% of the models in the IPCC), then we should ask for further justification why we should believe their models this time.

Also, coincidentally, a story came out today about thousands of Tesla Model 3s sitting in parking lots all over the place.

Keith Ellison was busy being a good Muzzie and beating on women.

Meanwhile, Corey Booker was off stealing second:

You were saying?

Well...Wikileaks is not exactly an equal opportunity leaker. In retrospect there's no higher morality to it's actions or the "materials" released.

You do realize "equal opportunity leaker" is a contradiction in terms, yes? Wikileaks is dependent on the information that is leaked to them. If you want them to publish something, stop chugging hatorade supplied by the deep state long enough to leak something to them, or hack somebody so you have said something.

In the Clinton case, in order to believe there was substantive criminal activity, one must believe that the whole of the FBI and intelligence community were in cahoots with Clinton.

Which they were, indisputably. If Hillary Clinton were anyone else - say Kristian Saucier - she'd be serving a decade for obstruction of justice (destroying evidence while under subpoena) on top of decades in prison for mishandling classified information.

It's not like other true leaks like Snowden or the Pentagon Papers. Those were acts of conscience which led to at least some change.

Not only did Hillary collude to win her own primary, she was outright running the DNC after she bought them out. That's just as factual as the Snowden leaks or the Pentagon Papers - bootlicker.

The Alpha Centuari space probe in 2069 will reach 10% of light speed for a 44 year journey. A trip to Vulcan would take a 176 years using the same technology.

This means that the causal order of A and B cannot be always be distinguished by a quantum particle such as a photon.

Great, soon we can take spooky pictures from the past (or the future).

We can let science answer that one.

Sadly, this seems to happen in many societies. There are examples from England, Ireland and Germany.
