Have you not noticed that Trump immediately applies everything he's criticized for onto his opponents? Bad temperment? No, I have a great temperment, YOU have a bad temperment! Angry? I'm calm, YOU'RE angry! Abuse women? Nobody has more respect for women than me, you abuse women! Puppet? No puppet, no puppet - you're the puppet! Every single time, he's like a mirror. I swear, if Hillary said "Your beauty pageants were poorly produced", he'd respond with, "No, YOUR beauty pageants were poorly produced!"
It makes him all too easy to bait during debates.
(And no, I don't think Trump actually uses drugs - it was just funny timing;) )
Trump, the guy who wants more countries to have nuclear weapons, and asks why we're going to make nuclear weapons? Trump, the guy who wants the US to bomb the children of suspected terrorists? Trump, the guy who endorses the strategy of Assad, Russia, Hezbollah and Iran in Syria? This is your anti-war candidate?
Right. Because the one email linked in your article is this. Oh, that's oh so damning. The rest of your article is built around O'Keefe garbage. The guy who built his career on selective editing and deception.
They've also just released some of Obama's emails where they're discussing picking positions with race and sex as the criteria
Link to the email. Not a right wing blog, not O'Keefe garbage, the actual email.
Correa believes precisely the opposite. He believes that a Trump presidency would be better for Latin america, but in the context that it would rally people in opposition to him to support leftist causes. He says that Clinton would be better for America and the world.
Quite true. Actually, what I found most interesting was the part right before that:
"One of my first acts will be to get all of the drug lords, all of the bad ones - we have some bad, bad people in this country that have to go out...." SNIIIIIIFFFFF! "... we're gonna get them out..."
Deep snorting while talking about drug lords is a bit less than opportune timing;)
Beagle 2 didn't involve, as mentioned, " a smouldering wreck, the kind you'd expect from mostly full hydrazine tanks slamming into a surface at high speeds"
Shiaparelli ditched its parachutes and stopped thrusting while moving at high speeds at high altitude. There's a lot we don't know, but among the things we do, is that it's not just standing there in the sky, Wile E. Coyote style, waiting for someone to point out to it that it should be falling.
Indeed. I live in Europe, but I find little that's admirable about ESA in comparison to NASA. They're not nearly as open with the public, nor nearly as successful. NASA has its faults, but I'd take a European version of NASA over the ESA any day.
The openness issues don't just stem to press conferences. They also embargo mission data a lot more and have more strict licenses on reuse of ESA products. It's.... let's just say "unfortunate". And it needs to change.
Quite possibly none of the above; from the description, I think that it's more likely some sort of sensor issue. It used a doppler radar altimeter/velocimeter to estimate its position, with 1 antenna is dedicated to range (points straight down, direct measurement) and 3 to X/Y/Z velocity (angled outward, used to estimate how the landscape is moving with respect to the craft). There's also accelerometers onboard. I'm not sure what sort of priority is given to what data.
A program is only as good as the inputs it receives. It seems to me that it thought it was going "low and slow". I mean, technically it could be a software issue, there could be some sort of "unit conversion" bug or some sort of mistaken sequence specifications or the like. But if I had to guess, I'd go with a sensor data problem rather than software.
Not personally, but a friend ruined his that way, and I've had some of what would have been "close calls". Likewise, I've never had to replace/send in a phone because of a bad battery. My "had to replace my phone" history is two cracked screens and one defective charge port.
For me, waterproofing is peace of mind - not having to worry about it. And I can do things that people whose phone isn't waterproof wouldn't dream of, like wading out on a beach or sitting in a spring while holding it. I was at a nearby geothermal river with my father this summer and he was sort of freaking out when he saw me in the water, taking pictures, not knowing my phone was waterproof. He had been taking pictures on the hike, but left his phone on the bank because of (reasonable) fear of it getting wet. Waterproofing just gives you something else you don't have to worry about and lets you do things that you probably wouldn't do otherwise.
And of course he could always rebrand it something like the "Litigious Electronics Corp Explodaphone 7" to mock them further over the lawsuit in the course of complying.
You know, I once was really hardcore on the "user-replaceable battery" bandwagon, but I've really softened on the issue. There are some significant advantages to making them not replaceable, including better waterproofing and the savings of both mass and volume. It's not some sort of scheme to make people replace their phones - or, at the very least, not only that.
If someone could make an IP67 phone with a user replaceable battery, I'd consider that a bonus over one that doesn't have a user-replaceable battery. But that's rare, and I'm not going to give up waterproofing for a replaceable battery.
I'm guessing that you're heavily invested in a datacenter company and are trying to lower the cost of hard drives by causing Youtube to flood the market with all of the excess drives they'd have in such a scenario.
Indeed. That mod is rather tame compared to some other snarky stuff I've seen out there. I remember after the Toyota "unintended accleration" issues, someone was plugging a "Toyota Simulator" that they made... when you went to the site it was just a continuous first-person video from a drivers' seat, played in fast forward, with the driver screaming in panic;)
But he has an impeccable source - James O'Keefe! Because when I'm looking for accurate reporting, and not, you know, selective editing and deliberate misrepresentation to make up a scandal out of whole cloth, I turn to James O'Keefe. Gold standard in reliable information there.
I also turn to Alex Jones for information about the Bilderberg Group, Art Bell for information about cosmology, and David Icke for information about herpetology.

You're mixing up your conspiracy theories.
Have you not heard this guy speak? Just to pick one example of the hundreds of him acting as Putin's personal apologist.

Clearly you missed #risottogate.
Call your senator and demand an investigation!

Did he also elaborate on how he planned to abet as well?
Quite true. Actually, what I found most interesting was the part right before that:

That wouldn't explain why the parachutes were jetisoned. They shouldn't have jetisoned at that point in time.
Wrong!

You know, it's one thing to be mad at Cloudflare, but you don't need to gay-bash it.
Don't be silly. Russia's paid trolling agency is headquartered in St. Petersburg, not Moscow.
Are you telling me that you can actually parse that word salad?
And Jeb skidded to a stop after rolling down a hill, unharmed!
