Paedophilia is very much defined by the person doing the viewing. Do you think it is wrong, sick, and disgusting for 7 year olds to play doctor? Do you think it is just as wrong, sick, and disgusting as if it were a 30 year old and a 7 year old playing doctor?
Oh, this isn't my sentiment or logic. I am very much aware of the economics of farming and how dumping food doesn't make things better except in the short term. If we really wanted to help those countries, we'd do it best with donations of equipment, to let the farmers do their job better.
Some people have the idea in their heads that if we have excess cropland to be used on biofuel, we could be using it to produce food that we could then send to developing nations that are having trouble feeding their people (Ethiopia comes to mind), or that could be distributed amongst the poor in this country. They might even think that artificially limiting the food supply by designating certain crop fields as being for biofuels will artificially inflate the price of food, thus making it even harder on the poor. Hence, ethical considerations.
Sure you're allowed to consume fifteen plates of food, but generally most people are not going to be able or willing to do that. That's actually the best parallel I can think of for overselling services. The business is advertising an upper limit that they cannot afford to have everyone reach, with the knowledge that most people are not going to reach it.
No, most people (in the U.S., anyway) own their phone. You can go down to WalMart, Radio Shack, Best Buy, or whoever, and pick one up. You can then do whatever you want with it, including reverse engineering, disassembling for parts, and the like. It isn't leased, it's owned.
Use a different kind of trap. Use time delayed traps like the room slowly filling with water. Use traps to give a sense of urgency to an encounter, rather than to pick away at the party's hit points. Use tripwires to alert encamped monsters, so that a group that sneakily bypasses them gets to feel superior as they slaughter the sleeping foes, and a group that sets them off gets a halfway decent fight. If you are going to use traps of the 'not fun' variety, make sure the party knows about them ahead of time (in a general sense, like there's a minefield up ahead, not a map showing every mine). Let them go around the minefield, and attack from behind, driving their enemies through their own carefully laid traps. Just don't go all Indiana Jones on them, even in movie format they skipped over a lot of it, and it's even worse to play through it.
Was this thing supposed to have tigers in it? Maybe it was used for bears when it was designed and built, in which case it would have been fine. It's quite possible that zoo administration is the only responsible party (other than the dumbass who got himself killed).
If it were as easy to accidentally be growing drugs as it is to accidentally not be audit-ready, then yes, that would be a bad idea. It would also signal a need for drug law reform if it's easy for someone to accidentally be breaking those laws.
Or one of your competitors made an anonymous tip, figuring that it'd waste your time even if you were in perfect compliance (which is really freaking unlikely). Hey, the BSA pays a bounty, doesn't it? Maybe I could make some extra cash fingering random companies around here...
But if we keep putting it off, our children may be the ones to never know freedom. Besides, it took so long to tear down the Soviet Union because the citizens that destroyed it had never known a free Russia. We have seen how things ought to be, and therefore will fight hardest to regain it. If nothing else, we can lay the groundwork for the fight against tyranny.

Huntsville is a good school. But yeah, most of Alabama is only useful for dragging down national averages.

Score another grammarian for Randall.

Why don't I have mod points for this?
Can't be done. XP doesn't allow the needed kind of hardware access. You're more likely to see it on Linux than on XP.
In Soviet Russia, jokes incite you!
Clearly you haven't been paying attention if you think something silly like prior art is going to stand in the way of his patent.
Do all of your machines need to be publicly accessible? Subnets for the win.

Back in the day, none of that was true.
That might lead to an on-counter encounter.

Trolling.
Yeah, but he blames it even (especially) when it's running as it was intended.

I don't remember a dupe.
That doesn't matter now, because they'll stop. Like hell they're going to automate a process that costs money and isn't easily reversible.

Looks like it's rule 34.
Sure it would, and the meat's already cooked by the time you get there to field dress it.
