Well, children should really be "worth" less, since they have had less invested in them. An adult with an education has had hundreds of thousands of dollars invested, and is likely a contributing member of society. A child of four years has cost nowhere near as much, is a drain on society for many years still, and much more easily replaced.
"Next to the gate" as in "inside of security". If they for some reason have an extra security control before boarding, which has happened to me once (when going to New York from Europe), I can see that they'd take his coke away. Which of course sucks all the more, since the drinks inside of security have a hefty mark-up.
Add to this that Munich airport is located far outside the city centre, which requires the traveller to take a one hour train ride from the airport to the main railway station.
Then you've got the people like me, who dual boot all of their systems (so we're already customers, anyhow).
I've seen this claim too many times now. I also dual boot for the few games that I cannot play under Linux, when I can be bothered - which is not often. Dual booting is a hassle, especially since it happens so seldom, it usually involves updating the Steam client, the games, and even Windows itself which takes forever. So I don't do it (anymore). If a game is only available for Windows, I no longer buy it. I have so many Linux games already, I have no need for something that I know I won't be playing.
There you go; at least one instance of "lost sale due to Windows only".
There is no such thing as a non-radiactive tritium reactor. That is a fact and a law of physics.
There is also no such thing as a non-radioactive sandwich, that's a fact and law of physics. (C-14 for instance.) What has that got to do with anything? That you use scare words like "unbelievably dangerous", "terrorists" and "suicidally stupid" only makes you seem less informed.
You are just a greenpeace troll. Nothing to see here.
Please explain why wearing a beard displays a lack of discipline or lack of military readiness.
It is my understanding that beards are disallowed in the infantry, because they prevent the gas mask to properly seal around your face. (Same probably goes for fighter pilots, but in their case it's about the oxygen mask.) This would also explains why it was not a problem in the Civil War, when chemical warfare was not yet invented, or at sea where the risk of a gas attack is minimal.
What do you think would happen if a terrorist plot was uncovered? The NSA calls the perpretrators and tells them "hey, guys, we know what you are up to so please stop"? There would obviously be arrests and court procedures. Since we know of no trials where key evidence was collected through the NSA surveillance program, we must conclude that no such evidence has been collected.
I bet you're one of those guys that use a pirated version of Photoshop to crop your camera phone pics at home, and then demand that your employer drops 4k on a PS license, because "GIMP is sooo useless, it doesn't even have the contrast settings in the same menu as I'm used to!".
There is little room for genuine doubt that Jesus existed. The record is too extensive and close in time to his time on earth.
There is plenty of room for doubt. Actually, that is the rational stance unless one has already made up their mind before hand. There's hardly any evidence outside the bible that Jesus actually existed, most of it probably about someone else (it was a common name at the time, no wonders nor crucifixion mentioned, etc.) or doctored by some zealous monk later on.
I'd provide support for my statement, but since you didn't either I can't be bothered right now.
Exactly my thoughts. This seems to be a good case for "poisoning the well", by using some simple Selenium script and a couple of e-books, for instance. Have the bot post random text snippets from the books to all kinds of people, events and pages, and then delete before sending. Make this data collection useless.
Actually, no. Since we know from the Snowden leaks that the Swedish FRA is in cahoots with NSA and GSHQ, anything that passes through Sweden will automatically be scanned. A new undersea cable that bypasses Sweden thus has infinitely better chances of being secure.
The "Previous message" arrow also sucks. If we disregard the fact that the previous-next-order is backwards IMO, it still simply does not work when newer messages have arrived since opening the latest one. If I open the lastly arrived message in the inbox, and another one arrives while I am reading it, the inbox link displays a new message, but clicking the "Previous" arrow displays the message "You have reached the first message in Inbox.", and I have to go back to Inbox and click the new message from there. What a piece of shit. Same thing with the threaded conversations, btw.

Byng?
Someone stole your punctuation marks.
That's pretty good, if you live in India.

If the pregnancy causes a risk to the pregnant's own life, is an abortion self defence?

Try out Soylent News instead. The SNR is much better.

...so what would we call Hitler, then?
A convenient way to dismiss someone's argument with which you disagree, but really have no basis for your disagreement.
That's a nice name and all, but kind of hard to remember. I think I'll stick with "Adolf".

Yes. Shooting the messenger is always a good idea.
Hair, hair!
Because the "think of the children" argument has never been used to justify an unjust law?
