Does that really apply in this case? This is a political race in Australia. Manning and Snowden have nothing to do with it, different issues, different country.
If you've been following what's been taking place in Australia over the past decade or so, and if you're not a scumbag shill (mind you, I'm not saying you aren't), then you'd know that they have everything to do with it.
Of course, I jest; the combination of whey, food-grade engine oil and potassium sorbate are an ancient Chinese formula for a miraculous, life-extending elixir...
That should quickly solve the overpopulation issue inherent to the one-way nature of the trip but will complicate logistics by requiring far greater amounts of toilet paper...
Mining asteroids doesn't solve, or really address at all, the fuel problem.
I seem to recall reading more than once that asteroids represent a supposedly excellent source of water (though surely H20 isn't the only viable source of reaction mass...).
I would love to see Murderers and Rapists using a similar defence.
I fail to see where my posts states or even implies that it represents any sort of defense whatsoever. It was, rather, merely an observation that if you're so stupid as to be even willing to consider investing in MSFT (regardless of whatever lies they do or don't spin), you're bound to get cleaned out one way or the other.
"A drooling imbecile and his money soon go separate ways?" Seriously, if they hadn't been softed by Microshaft, they surely would've been by somebody else...:p
Ads that pop up masquerading as system alerts, porn ads, ads which trigger downloads of files like executables and apks.
Those with enough knowledge and credibility to have valid perspectives and opinions regarding this subject also know enough to run Adblock and NoScript. Since the latter doesn't seem to apply to you, I suspect the former wouldn't, either.

Then at some point they realized they could take over the press, and that the public could be manipulated more effectively than ever before
FTFY.

until the security apparatus suffers some major political damage and loses some people they think of as assets
FTFY.
And you may pay $100,000 for a BMW. But it's really not that much more advanced in construction than a Chevy.
Higher tech, maybe not quite so much. Higher quality, definitely.
Die, Slashdot, die.
There's an easy solution for that (hint: your post isn't it). :p
Our rulers are, for the most part, not people. They're institutions and bureaucracies.
Correct; pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.
that doesn't mean that I should be justified to spew vitriol
No, of course not; there should definitely be a censhorship apparatus put in place.. right? That's what you're implying/suggesting, I assume?
Is MS Word in a browser inherently better or just different?
For who? For us, not necessarily; for MSFT, probably...

Can these two horse breeders sue me and force my no-clones registry to accept their cloned animals?
Apparently so. :p
He only visits TPB for the ads...
How can you have a working relationship with your employer, when in your free time you are actively working against them.
Companies represent private interests; governments [are supposed to] represent public interests. You, sir, are an idiot.
Professional liars caught lying... news at 11.
In fact I can't seem to find a single protocol developed by Arpa that is still in use today.
TCP/IP? :p
easier than just throwing up some habidomes with climate control and a ring of razor wire and killbots to keep the proles away.
Apparently, it's the giant mutated moles you need to worry about. :p
Get Your Hands Wet to Sink Some Files
Interactive fisting videos? :p

Hopefully it'll include a more power efficient Haswell chip.
I think upgrading the Surface with a Prescott would allow a massive increase in functionality (it could be used to keep coffee mugs warm).
It is, however, entertaining!
I find it all mind-numbingly inane but I'm weird like that.
Or, we could all go back to writing letters. Oddly enough, that still has more legal protections behind it than any other form of communication.
The entire point of all these [not necessarily so recent] revelations is that legal protections are no protection.
Talking On the Phone While Driving Not So Dangerous After All
Be that as it may, please don't tell all these idiot drivers that! :p
