"With its new cargo handling technology,... and point to point delivery,..."
I can see merchants adding a "Dirigible P2P shipping (45 days)" radio button to their websites. Obviously it would be listed AFTER 5-day ground or freight.
It is utterly laughable to attribute this to the imaginary Obama totalitarianism put forth by the paranoid ultra right. DoJ started down this path long ago. Republicans pine for gov't snooping to stop "the terrorists," and Democrats believe in the power of government too much to disagree. Plus there is pointless worry about file sharing. Government snooping would increase substantially under Romney and would continue at at least the current pace under Obama. Government seeks to control. This will continue to get worse no matter which party is in charge. Americans value comfort, not freedom.
Joe Sixpack has one question: WTF you are talking about, who is centralized, and why should I care? Seriously, geeks are 1% of Facebook audience, 99% couldn't care less about "decentralization".
This^, despite the fact that I do understand the article and appreciate the concepts.
Diaspora would never fly because ten nerds (and zero women) would not constitute a user base. Even Google+ has a user base of mostly nerds that keep it active. There (apparently) has to be a SN for utter dipshits, and that's the role that FB fulfills.
After working at several companies that use Agile/Scrum, my experience has been that Agile is a great way to stuff a company's ranks with non-contributors.
Correct. It is illegial for police to take your phone, or any property without a signed warrant (for the US).
Do not give them up - even if the ask nicely. You can volenter to give them a copy of the photos or video if you wish - but you are certainly under no obligation to do so - just because they tell you to. Just be polite, and tell them you will be happy to comply when they produce a signed warrant for said property. They will mumble and then give up in most cases.
Sheep get pushed around and abused - stand up for your rights people!
From your _person_? Police do that all the time. I believe the term they would use is "confiscate."
Open Carry in a state with lax gun laws and see if the police don't confiscate your weapon without a warrant. Similarly, go photograph your nearest federal building with a big SLR and see how long before they take it.
Telling them they need a warrant is another way of asking to be arrested (for resisting arrest, no doubt). In the US cops have been able to beat people to death without any real repercussions.
I'm all for the effort succeeding, but it won't. No one is going to create an account on whitehouse.gov and sign a petition that runs contrary to what the security state has in mind. "You're either with us, or your with the terrorists." Under the next administration, that member list is going to become a government shitlist. No thanks.
Ask yourself this: What good can come of getting an account on whitehouse.gov?
Maybe you "dunno" but eight years of Bush pretty much drove the point home that Repubs are statists--in the name of freedom, of course. There's really no need to pretend that we don't know that a Republican administration would have achieved more erasure of civil liberties as they relate to telecom. Repubs are against gov't unless it is trying to involve itself in your pants or ensure your false sense of security through authoritarianism. That said, no one should be surprised by this executive order. Gov't seeks to control. President Romney, should that fuckwit win in 2012, won't rescind this order, will pile onto it, and will eagerly sign any new, over-the-top PATRIOT Act additions (for Jesus, the children, or whatever). The president after that, no matter which party, will do the same.
Increased safety and reduced manpower are among the reasons the U.S. military and intelligence community use drones on the battlefield, which is why it should be considered in Virginia, he says.
Emily Blunt as the next Doctor. She could pull off the off-balance bit effortlessly. Then the show could have male companions du jour.
Bonus: ratings boost the second Smith assumes room temperature and then the Doctor regenerates as a total piece of ass who also has the chops for the role.
Exactly. But get rid of the reportER as well as the reportEE. Just link RC aircraft with the word terrorism (again), and Congress will pass a law limiting the hobby. Then get rid of the EPA and TCEQ for killing jobs or similar nonsense. The whole charade should play well in TX.
Fox News is pro SOPA. Wikipedia could go offline forever and it would not make a difference. Making the SOPA bill matter to the proletariat would involve Google and Facebook going offline.
We cannot afford any of this. By 2025 the middle class will have been finished off, and thus the tax base will have been erased, and we will have openly accepted our Third World status. The first words spoken on Mars will have to be translated into English for us as we shiver in our boxes amidst burning trash in America's favelas.

Linked article is from 2013
...to Iranian users not to use FB.
"The Russian foreign ministry has said it has enough information to confirm the rebels launched the chemical attack." It must be true, then.
Those who are buying this should go look up this word: Iraq.
Only a complete moron would support this. Once a tax, always a tax.
The issue was that they fraudulently used the underage labor instead of legitimately using underage labor.

Did anyone wget that site before it went away? I would like to check it for a couple of names.

This is another reminder of why I am so glad I did not buy an iPhone. Compared to my phone, iPhones look like yesteryear's products anyway.

Virginia is a battlefield?
None of the suggestions will happen.
And this won't happen either.
This won't happen.
