If the lack of care for the child extends that far, they'll be opening them up and sewing the explosives inside. There has to be a better way to identify real security threats. After all, when it comes time for me to be checked by security, I already know for sure that I'm not a terrorist (and I would not be a terrorist even if I had a gun on my person) and the security guy is probably pretty certain too otherwise he would have one of his colleagues do the pat down in case of "plan B".

How about coming up with a new alphabet with just 10 characters, or fewer. That would make my keyboard smaller. Just so long as the letters U, K, C and F are included, I'll be able to express myself with my usual panache and I might even be able to find the keys on my phone.
should be using licensed spectrum. I know these guys all want to use the same radio that's built into every device, but commercial operators competing to drive up the noise floor does no-body any good. Pretty soon there won't be any gaps in the spectrum to be found - these radios will not be so "cognitive", "sentient", "feeling" or whatever the crap they claim to be when they have simply made ISM, U-NII and other unlicensed bands unusable.
Scientists get to test new gene delivery techniques on willing subjects, the local sewer company can make millions through market research and street lighting costs will be reduced when all McDonalds customers glow brightly, not to mention the reduction in traffic accident fatalities when pedestrians are more visible after dark.

I'm sure they would test it for being sharp too, and I'm equally sure that the type of rule that would come in a science kit would be the cheapest possible kind, made of sharpened radioactive asbestos by children in far eastern countries. After all, who buys the science kit for the quality of the ruler ?
I like your point questioning why a science kit should contain readily available items. Quite frankly I want a science kit to contain all the things I don't already have or are somehow harder to obtain. But I do think that additional expectations are reasonable when something is labeled "for children" and unfortunately I think the same people who are too lazy to go find a ruler on their own, and need it packaged in the kit, are the same people who are too lazy to supervise their kids.
I have seen Xrays of children that have swallowed magnets - it aint good, and probably could have been prevented yet still allowed children to explore magnetism. magnets are also much stronger and more brittle than they were when I was a kid, the risks have changed and it is responsible to review policy. I don't think anyone wants to stop children learning here and I don't want to buy a science kit for my kid that's full of things that are more dangerous than they need to be. By all means balance risk against learning benefit, but let there be some balance, not just recklessness to save a penny by not removing the sharp edges on a ruler.
Have some friends help you flip the family car on its side. Securely fix the lower driven wheel to a stake driven into the ground next to it, or through its spokes to prevent it turning. Put a board to act as a turntable on the upper driven wheel and repeat this experiment with much more lighter fluid while someone revs the car in drive to make the plate spin at tremendous speed. This combines a reduction in reasonableness with more danger.
So should this prick just keep going until he does find something offensive enough to make you bite ? For example, using your religion to justify this act. This is turning into a Kenny Rogers song before our very eyes.
LDPC, spread spectrum and more EIRP. Or are they hoping to overturn Shannon ? Really, the state of the art is fractions of a dB away from theory. There are no further breakthroughs to be found. Unless you count social engineering the bad guys to block the wrong signals.
You make a great point very well, and I think anyone who wants to fight this has to be able to answer your points bullet bu bullet. I don't have those answers (yet), but don't stop with just this list of things they stand for. So far the tea party has avoided some issues by simply claiming that the proponents of those issues don't represent official policy, but I have seen a number of followers who are just fine with bailouts if the money is coming to them, mainly to pay their unpaid back taxes that they built up because the felt no moral need to pay the IRS. Or a predilection to racism, homophobia and the usual raft of holier than thou lies and general shittyness that comes with claims to "fiscal conservatism". They feel no need to pay for health insurance, but the state should scrape them off the road after an accident and fix them, they were fine with pissing money away on wars when they felt vengeful and xenophobic, but resist to their last breath any measure to sort out the resulting mess. Feeling that other people should bear their burdens is not fiscal responsibility, it is unwarranted entitlement.
Presumably the the scenario is that 444983 is surrounded by police, mortally wounded and still finds time to post a question on slashdot from his blackberry. Or maybe the message was sent by the ghost of circletimessquare.

Just how did they induce this DC anyway ?

incorporate a multi-touch screen version of a chorded keyboard for the command line.
then they ridicule you, then they the fight you...
Then you win

That's a huge school !
Oh no, there are not enough highly skilled engineers available to depress wages even further. The CEO will starve if he can't drop the payroll enough.

in two years, that's a new revision every 3 days. I'd wait a couple of weeks until z200 comes out.
