it takes 2 days to fill a tesla via a home power connection. there is no 'conveniently available' chargers that fill it faster unless you live in a very select area. do the damn research.
i have said this before when this terribly stupid reasoning comes up: what the hell am i going to do when the plane starts doing cartwheels on takeoff? paying attention is not going to help me survive.
i would much rather be listening to headphones in a crash though, rather than the screams of people burning to death in an aluminum tube.
she wasn't protesting she was refusing. they told she had to submit to a search and she still refused. if you don't resist what you feel to be an infringement of your rights at the time it is happening, when the hell should you?
yeah that is not a great plan to avoid having your data lost due to a natural disaster. flooding, wildfires, tornadoes, or hurricanes usually will not be localized to just your house in the neighborhood. off-site needs to be miles away at minimum, and ideally in another region.
it is funny how often it happens on slashdot that i agree with the first half of a comment and the second half makes me despise the commenter on a personal level.
Interesting response, but you might want to do some more research on the rules of conflict or provide a citation if I am wrong here. What I found was that there is an explicit ban on attacking a wounded combatant that is 'out of the fight' and there also is a prohibition on punishment or reprisals upon civilians for rendering medical aide to the wounded. I do not think that rendering medical aid to a combatant makes a civilian a combatant in any way, from anything that i read in the law of armed conflict. I believe that the #3 from your list is geared towards giving military aid to a combatant. I also think that both points I raised make the second attack an illegal use of force.
In general I find your comment to be troubling in its lack of empathy. A reporter misidentified as being an armed combatant, because of the failure to distinguish a telephoto lens from a gun, and was killed. The pilot watched him crawling, dying, and was verbally hoping for a chance to shoot again. A family was then fired upon for rendering aide and comfort to the dying journalist. This kind of indiscriminate killing is happening in someone's neighborhood, and to a civilian on the ground we would not appear to be in the right.
that's not what the verizon rep told me yesterday. you only will be placed on a new plan if you buy a new phone with the upgrade discount, that has always required you sign a new contract. you can buy ebay/amazon phones forever and keep your old plan.
i once found a harbor in some asian city, wooden fishing skiffs intermingled with heavy cargo ships. they were using an off-the-shelf camera to monitor traffic from a bridge, no passwords, and pan/tilt/zoom were enabled. i moved the camera over to watch people on the bridge, and the actual operator kept moving it back. he/she must have thought the thing was possessed.
the connection between AGW denier and holocaust denier exists only in your head. other people should not have to change their use of language because of your misinterpretation of a commonly used word.

you are are an arrogant, think-headed prick
you are addressing statements to me saying "your definition" when i made no statement about entrapment. you are speaking for the majority based on the assumption that they agree with you. and you are incapable of defending the repeated statements to that effect that you are shitting all over this thread. and when you are called on it you shift the argument in a feeble rhetorical attempt to "win".
my point, that you are trying to dodge, is that "the definition of the term as used by the courts as this is clearly what the majority wants" makes no sense, because it is based on the rulings of judges, which is not an expression of the will of the majority.
1. i made no claims about the definition about entrapment, try reading the usernames once in a while
2. what does "the majority believes that they deserve prison" mean if you are not trying to speak for the majority. i may have missed the referendum on the issue, but i don't believe that you can claim anything involved in these cases has been put to a vote.
However, if one of my employees were to go to the newspapers or TV and complain about how I do business before discussing it with me
i guess you missed the part where she went to supervisors multiple times about lack of cert. on the scanners and lack of training manuals and was told to go pound sand. also, she only went to media after she was fired...as far as i am concerned for a federal employee to write a congressional rep. is basically escalating to a supervisor's boss.
They are not going to do a full search unless you refuse all electronic means
not true. i was flying domestic and refused to go through a millimeter wave scanner. they were scanning every person that was going into that concourse. they called on a radio for a manual screen and walked me through a metal detector that i did not set off (nothing was in my pockets at the time). the screener then fetched my belonging from a bin and placed them on a table near me. he then recited a huge explanation of the search and what he would touch and with what part of his hand, etc. i then was given the most invasive and thorough "pat down" that i have ever gotten. examined the cuffs and waistband of my pants very closely, etc. the screener then swabbed his gloves and checked them for explosive residue.
at this airport they were scanning everyone and patting down anyone who refused, the fight back the other airport was only using a metal detector and very infrequently scanning randomly with a backscatter x-ray machine.
do you really see no value in a asynchronous phone-to-phone communication? i find it quite useful, but don't like holding long or complex conversations over it.

that is not an OS action, that is the result of a change made by the developer.
the journalist was faulted for not plugging it an at a hotel. do you think that they have 240 that he could have plugged into?

citation for #2, all reports are the van and kids were on the way to school and saw wounded people in the street, stopped to render aid.
no the stopwatch is part of the custom software that samsung puts on the galaxy phones. i have a nexus and there is no stopwatch.

and you do not get to claim to be speaking for the majority.
