Oh, that's great thinking. Teach the kids to use systems that are practically useless because "it's easier". Lets make sure we don't move into Algebra or Trig later because that might take some effort. So what if it will benefit them, it might be hard.
Requiring effort, and being shitty, are two VERY different things. Having a knowledge of multiple diverse operating environments is a GOOD thing.
In the past the company I work for discussed that point with Microsoft who told them that the case was the definitive point that could not change. So all upgrades had to keep the same case. Everything else could change, but unless we wanted to buy a new license, the case had to remain.

So lets do a little review:
1) They are using a car from the most stolen list.
2) The electronics are OBVIOUSLY not visible.
3) It is doctored with trash, etc. To make it look normal to the area.
So Joe Blow is walking through the parking lot, and thinks to himself...DAMN! That looks like one regular car! Now, I'm not one who would ever think of stealing a car.... I mean the keys aren't even left in the ignition, but I just can't help myself. The seeds are planted....can't control self...MUST....STEAL...CAR!
The column is already going to get busted. Why lock the doors inviting more unnecessary damage to be repaired before redeploying it? Everytime my car gets theft attempts, the bill is like $900 bucks just to put the column back together again! Sure I only pay the $250 insurance deductible, but it still hurts.
Actually Microsoft's policy goes even further than that. It asserts that the Operating System is bound to the machine, not the user. They don't allow the transfer of the OS from the old machine to the new one, period. Doesn't matter if you formatted the old hard drive or not. Yep, this is a total crock... And then they wonder why no one likes them? Go figure!
So my child, you have come to know the true nature of Micro Soft. M$-Visual Languages are directly linked to teeny-weenie. I think it's an inherited attribute, direct from Billie Bob.
Nuclear Power Stations?!?! Ummm, no. Just what we need, refueling outage, a new turbine is being delivered, and the truck drives over a landmine. Or, is it for the schoolkids that live across the street to set off walking to the bus stop? Yes, I do work at a nuclear power plant, and I am a civilian, as is every other employee onsite, (a few thousand of us). Your proposed "legitimate" use contradicts your closing statement.
croporations? Oh, I get it....those corporations that sell grain and other crops to nongovernmemental entities. (although I have NO IDEA what nongovernmemental is supposed to be).
So SUN Microsystems should probably be suing GLock for making a GUN, or Paramount for setting Phasers to STUN, or maybe you for that awful PUN, or me for saying something was FUN. Is that how it works, if it rhymes it must be confusing and lawsuit bait. Bill probably voted in Florida.

No man on the earth today is innocent. But 5000 (I pulled that number out of my butt, so don't quote me on it) people including children the WTC buildings are definitely NOT guilty of crimes warrating death. You yourself are not innocent, does that mean Achmed Turbantop is justified to kill you, your wife, children, and/or everyone in your neighborhood? If you know he had the intent to do so, would you continue on peacefully, hoping it didn't happen soon, or would you take measures to defend yourself and those around you. Or did that piece of gum you stole in 7th grade invalidate your right to life. That right should only be taken when absolutely necessary to preserve the lives and rights of others. i.e. Murderers forfeit that right and are executed (or killed in self defense) to protect the lives of those not guilty of the same.
But that was nuclear war...a totally different scenario.

If he thinks that mechanized warfare will lead to no casualty war, he's incorrect. (Um, what about the targets of all those high tech weapons. They certainly won't all be the other side's high tech weapons, they will be people).
Actually, the first priority in a conflict would be to eliminate threats, and defenses. So, if this ficticious scenario were to unfold, I would say that the FIRST strikes would be to eliminate the other party's mechanized defense systems. Then to "lean on" the human factor to submit to surrender and terms.
I have to agree though, that in war, there is no such thing at TOTAL victory. There is always loss, whether life, industry, economy, etc... It must be weighed carefully whether the gains outweigh the losses.
-The needs of the many outweight the needs of the few [or the one].
Of course the value of human life is obviously irrelevant to you.
I would much rather have my tax dollars spent eliminating (or at least fighting) the threat of Extremists (spelling?) bent on the destruction of innocent civilians in the US or anywhere else. It's called self defense. The preservation of the lives of the men and women of the military dedicated to this cause cannot be counted in dollars and cents. Every penny spent on technology that can keep them out of harm's way, while working toward the goal of restoring safety and security is money well spent.
No DUMBASS, DC injector is in the COAX. NOT the CAT-5. What the hell would you need a boost in the ethernet for? Do I need to send pictures for you too? Let me guess, you're riding the "short" bus to school.
Maybe we've got two different systems, but I seriously doubt it. Does your DC injector have two RJ-45 jacks, and why would you need to inject into the ethernet. The power is for the antenna, which is connected with coax.
"...Discrimination (age, race, sex, marital status...) is never legal..." -Myth.
The Nineteenth Century Civil Rights Acts, amended in 1993, ensure all persons equal rights under the law and outline the damages available to complainants in actions brought under the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Title VII, the American with Disabilities Act of 1990, and the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.
The Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA) prohibits employers from discriminating on the basis of age. The prohibited practices are nearly identical to those outlined in Title 7. An employee is protected from discrimination based on age if he or she is over 40. The ADEA contains explicit guidelines for benefit, pension and retirement plans.

If you can't drive, you're a Mac user. No skills, but likes to watch the pretty scenery.
