No, it was "B" at most. It was not IC (intercontinental), because the planes did not have such range and it's not missile. And I would argue if it is even ballistic. Moreover, ICBMs have a much greater destructive power than a jetful of jet fuel.
I haven't made that clear, but I was actually referring to the comments above, not the article itself.
It is something I'd expect from US parents, somehow.
That's why I made that xenophobic reference - it is now common opinion that the majority of US citizens lead carefree hedonistic life. And it's nobody's fault but their own. Reading the previous comments made my head spin.
Sure! Don't solve problems, don't read books, don't write essays. Instead, watch some "Married, with Children" to see what you're gonna become. Buttheads.
The more stuff I read about patent litigation the less I understand why the corporations don't come to the conclusion that it doesn't do them any good. Patent law reformed reasonably, everyone would benefit (and, presumably, profit).
In case of WW3 or a natural disaster wouldn't landlines provide better service or be restored to service quicker than anything else? Unless maybe ham radio replaced them in emergency communication?
"Programs are for PEOPLE." So are the cars. Therefore at some point when an admin I decided that there should be some sort of driving license for computer users. Unless they pass the test, they wouldn't be allowed to use the fucking machine. That would make other users safer. And only that, because no matter how much work is put into security there will always be sumdumass that will fuck something up out of ignorance.

Jeeese. It spoils it if I have to dumb it down. Plane + wacky terrorist = ICBM
You're even more wrong than I thought initially. Good day, ma'am. Enjoy your government-sponsored conspiracy theory.
What's the connection?
Seriously, shut the fuck up.
A very educated remark, indeed. Chapeau bas!
Sure there are people who don't need all of this and just get it.
Those would understand there are others who do need practice. That aside, talent is not enough.
Funny that the parents are Canadian.

Trying to teach a Polish guy Polish? Spierdalaj.
You're mixing Polish with Russian. Something like NI3.

I want a stereogram. Please.
But does this have any practical use? Can we use this place for experiments of any kind or is it just pure knowledge?
Radiotelescopes (IR mainly) would have a great spot there. I suppose.

This is waaay better.
Sorry, I was taking life seriously... [lights up the bong]

The more advanced use telnet.

DNA is software, after all.

I think any sufficiently intelligent entity would abandon being evil on the grounds that it leads to waste of energy and resources.
