Yup! They had no need to divert the planes, they were just pissed someone dared to watch public officials doing their jobs, so they decided to not do their jobs and rob the guy.
You keep saying that and you keep being fucking wrong. Crimea was part of Russia before they "invaded". Hawaii was legally annexed. This may sound preposterous, if you're a retard.
Just because someone is self desecrating and a walking slab of lard does not mean they don't have a valid argument. Your logic is fallacious.
Sure it does, when their "argument" is about how things must not be desecrated. Judging by everything you've posted on this page, I can only assume you yourself are "self desecrating and a walking slab of lard". Your logic, and your grammar, is fuckdingoretardedbad.
The Telescope goes up, but the Washington Monument gets bulldozed, or perhaps the Salt Lake Temple, or the Statue of Liberty. If not just US things then perhaps the Vatican, Ankor Wat, or other religious icons.
Wait.... what is that..... it makes a difference when the things YOU value are under attack.
Makes no difference to me. I'd love to see the Statue of Liberty shipped off from New Jersey (because it's truly in New Jersey) back to Frnace. I'd be delighted to see Mount Rushmore obliterated back to a boring old rock. We don't need fucking pointless structures and monuments to stupid shit.
Considering they would have all been Japanese by now if it weren't for the evil Americans, I think they should sit the fuck down, shut the fuck up, stop believing in retarded volcano gods, and maybe strum a ukelele.
In the old days they used to be able to pay off some local leaders to make the resistance go away. Now, they're absolutely bending over backwards, funding education initiatives, etc, and the protestors won't go away. Why? Two reasons. First, they made the mistake of breaking ground on a day that drew more attention because the activists were also doing something that day. Second, with Twitter and the internet the True Believers don't need local leaders to stir them up and connect them, they can do it themselves.
Basically, they're trying to placate a bunch of implacable Luddites and Fanatics who won't be placated. Nothing but complete surrender or martyrdom will satisfy them.
Dedicated routers offer same-or-better performance and capacity of a "layer 3 switch", and give you FULL layer 3 traffic control, not the half-assed firewalling, prioritization, etc. that "layer 3 switches" provide (at slow fucking speed).
"Layer 3 Switch" is a marketing term for "half-assed router", and nothing more. If they were as capable as routers they'd be called routers because they'd fucking be routers. It's just like "smart managed switch", which means you get a semi-functional web interface (and maybe a semi-functional serial interface), good enough to do basic filtering, authentication, and VLANing, but it's no where near as capable as a true managed switch.
Saying a layer 3 switch is better than a router is like saying a spork is better than a spoon, fork, and knife.
A "layer 3 switch" has minimal routing features and is only a "great router" if you don't need to do much routing and thus don't want to spend money on an actual router.
It is a router that can *route* packets among all interfaces at full speed. Get a Linux box with 16 NICs and flood them with traffic. See it sizzling, smoking and crashing.
Oh fuck off with that bullshit. Routing packets takes minimal CPU, so fuck off with your sizzling and smoking horse shit. Full fledged routers are much more capable than "layer 3 switches".
1 Tbps in the networking world means 1,000,000,000,000 bits per second because they never got the hang of counting bits instead of measuring baud rate. 1,000,000,000,000 bits / 33 / 1024 / 1024 / 1024 / 8 = 3.5277370250586307410037878... GB per film.
In May 1862, Abraham Lincoln overturned an order issued by General David Hunter that would have freed every slave across vast swaths of the southern Atlantic coast.
That was after he was made president and 1 year into the civil war.
He is not the man you think he is and revising history to make him some grand savior is BS.
Who is a general to give such an order? Why is such an order appropriate? What effects would it have? What effects would have elsewhere? Could the same goal be achieved in a better way?
(Hint: Lincoln didn't overturn such an order because Lincoln was a bad person, didn't care about slaves, etc. as you insinuate.)
But my history teacher and wikipedia and civilwar.org say it's about the good guy northern states wanting to free the slaves from the evil southern racist bigots. Are you saying that the actual facts are different from the fanciful tale I was indoctrinated with? Are you saying that I, as a typical young liberal, am fucking wrong as shit when I tell people to "get educated" on subjects such as these? Is my liberal ideology and education based largely on bullshit designed to get me to think and act a certain way? Would the government lie to me like that?!
"Using your flying RC toy during an emergency situation (riot, crime in progress, fire, natural disaster, et al.) is illegal."
No it isn't. The FAA's authority to impose flight restrictions, temporary or otherwise, only extends to the point that there is a fucking valid reason to do so. Drones pose so little threat in the described situation that the FAA has no authority to do that shit.
This goes for nearly all government authority. Federal agencies don't get to make up some bullshit and have their way whenever they want. They are limited to agencies necessary to their purpose, and are further limited in power and scope by state and federal law, including the constitution. The constitution includes a nifty line that basically says "Fuck you, if your power isn't explicitly listed here, it's for the people/states, NOT the feds.".
The FAA can't dream up or exaggerate a threat about drones preventing firefighters from working and use it as a justification for restricting flight in an area. Similarly, the AMA can't dream up or exaggerate a threat about abortions being potentially harmful to patients and use it as a justification for restriction abortions.
The agency of restricting flight in an area or restricting abortions does NOT serve the purposes under which the FAA or AMA are established because the danger excuse is exaggerated bullshit. These actions neither serve the established purposes of the FAA/AMA nor are the "threats" of a level that would justify the feds exerting power over states / individuals.
But hey, this is the U. S. of A. and we love our overreaching government masters, including the FBI, NSA, TSA, FCC, FDA, ATF, and DHS. Why should we demand that they follow the law? Why should we expect that they do only the things necessary to achieve what they were established to do? Why not bend over and let them fuck us in the ass again and again and again and again and again with no recourse?

Because there is NO lawful justification for interfering with the band in such a manner.
Of course there is. They're not permitted to use their radio equipment in an unlawful manner
They aren't. And if they were, that doesn't grant someone else the hijack the airwaves in retaliation.
Yup!
They had no need to divert the planes, they were just pissed someone dared to watch public officials doing their jobs, so they decided to not do their jobs and rob the guy.
Scientists would love to go to the moon, build a telescope, and use it there.
You keep saying that and you keep being fucking wrong.
Crimea was part of Russia before they "invaded".
Hawaii was legally annexed.
This may sound preposterous, if you're a retard.
The Cat should make short work of the piled-up rocks, and the high-pressure hoses would be ready in case the demonstrators start throwing anything.
Now that science itself is under attack, we need to be prepared to defend it.
The scoops are coming. The scoops are coming.

Of course it wasn't Russia's "acquisition" of Crimea was perfectly legal. It belonged to Russia already. The separation from Russia was illegal.
Another compromise.

It's infuriating.
Luddites? Maybe they need more apps.

This is the obvious outcome, tinfoil hat or not.
A layer 3 switch is a fucking router. It's called a layer 3 switch because it's a fucking shitty router.
Switches are layer 2.

In England, if you want to make flag-patterned underwear and sell it, that's legal, but in the USA, forget it.

"The aircraft used to knock down flames and survey burn areas have to cease operations when there is a drone in the air."
No they don't.
A drone being in the air doesn't cause a plane, helicopter, blimp, dragonfly, or unladen swallow to fall out of the sky.
It's "champing", dipshit.
