The NYT article didn't really explain this bit: "The Chinese were relative latecomers to island building in the Spratly archipelago" So this tactic isn't new or unique to China.
Typically the prosecutor has an advantage since he controls the presentation and can frame it however he likes. But if a grand jury wanted to indict anyway, why couldn't they? It seems like the same holds true in Japan, the grand jury delivered the verdict the prosecutor wanted just like in the US. But the interesting part is, there is a third party (article didn't detail where it comes from or who is a member) that can appeal the grand jury decision.
The sentence in the summary is a bit ambiguous certainly. CO2 is measured as an aspect of air quality in a specific location, not because it is a pollutant in itself. Or if you like, a sound is not necessarily noise, but put a lot of sounds together and you get noise pollution.
One more thing to break. let me guess, it costs $1000 to fix and the car will self-report the failure so no inspection sticker until I cough up the money.
At first I was going to ask the doubters why Hawking would be involved if the project was so dubious, but after RTFA it is very unclear what Hawking has to do with it. He is quoted making several comments about SETI in general but nothing specific about this project. He isn't listed as a project leader. The closes I found was this quote "I strongly support the Breakthrough Initiatives and the search for extraterrestrial life.". It seems like they stuck his name in the headline for the prestige effect.
How does using 900Mhz enter into it? Would a yagi not have the range to work going direct to a 802.11 a,b,g,n access point? Or would it just have to exceed the power limits to get across 2.5 miles on those frequencies?
The CIA disagrees with you, and has done so consistently for the last decade in the annual National Intelligence Estimate. If you think you know better than them, by all means provide your reasoning. And you will have to do better than a picture of some centrifuges, which have plenty of non-military applications.
" if Iran continues to make nukes"???? They don't have any nuclear weapons at this point, and have no real program to develop them. That is the repeated opinion of US intelligences agencies, not mine.
"earlier lane alignment alerts" would fail, at least where I live. Here the truck drivers always change lanes at the last possible moment to avoid traffic in the more congested lanes. Who is going to argue with their huge mass advantage?
I have been suspicious of various nav systems for a while since they invariably try to route me over the local toll road instead of the parallel non-toll freeway. But not too suspicious since I benefit by having all the out of town folks routed out of my way. Thanksgiving weekend is fun to observe the massive jam up on the toll road while the parallel freeway runs clear. They are so parallel that there are places where one can see the traffic on the other road.
How about I come by your home and leave a brick on the floor, is it really so hard to just put it in the trash if you don't want it? The point is, it is a theft of your time and effort.

They were reverse engineering software. I didn't see anything in here about cracking AV vendor networks or anything like that. I'm sure there are plenty of other people trying to reverse engineer software.
Wouldn't it be reasonable to say this is within the security agency's baliwick? I didn't see anything about misusing whatever they found. Very interesting though that domestic producers were not listed. Maybe because they didn't need a warrant to do the reverse engineering, or as suggested by others they might already be compromised.
Yes, it would have been clearer if I said "..will prevent any single future attack?" I thought my further clarification in the post made this distinction clear though. My point was that blaming the tool is pointless when there are many other tools. Since your examples involve stopping the actor they are all irrelevant.
A pretty typical response. Focus on some trivial or unimportant aspect of a bad event, rather than face the fact that little can be done. Does anyone really believe that "doing something" about armored cars is going to prevent future attacks? The attacks will just take a different form. It is like saying "hammers raise eyebrows after person is attacked with a hammer" The least important and and least valuable aspect of that description is the hammer.

"18% had seen shocking or upsetting images" seems pretty tame to me, they are barely looking to have this low a shock rate
Actually you could just disable auto-fetching of media within MMS to work around the problem.
Why not NoScript?
The headline does not appear to match the story.
Yes. But hardly dangerous like an illicit meth factory. You are comparing two very different things.

Is that what you would do in the absence of a licensing regime, go to a hairdresser for surgery?

I am sick of seeing these 'one simple|weird trick' spams everywhere
"it only creates problems with RnD recovery"
Could you clarify what you meant by this?

Are attacks involving armored vehicles more common in the US than in other developed nations? I see no evidence for that.
