  1. Broadband over Powerline on Still Little To Do About a Bad ISP · · Score: 2, Informative

    One big problem with broadband over powerlines was the fact that it constantly interfered with the amateur radio spectrum, and between people denying this, and companies unable to filter the signal or otherwise prevent interference, you simply had interference with an allotted set of spectrum which can't be tolerated. It would be nice to revisit that technology in a couple of years if they can figure out how to quit interfering with other frequencies.

    Dang! you beat me to it. LOL. This was the first thought that crossed my mind when I saw the article.

    In the more free parts of the world, some of us can walk around with REAL guns loaded with REAL ammo visibly strapped to our hip, and be perfectly legal.

    Huh? "War Weapon"? That's a new one on me. In nearly all states in the US, one can quite legally and easily own a weapon like the Halo sniper rifle. It's just a matter of $$$. I'm guessing you are in Europe, or some other place where only the criminals and government have any sort of gun larger than a .22 or a common hunting shotgun?

    Oh, we don't have .50 caliber bans, bans on caliber size, or other shit like Kalifornia does.

    Mere alarm by a person is not justified to warrant a stop, given as each person is "alarmed" by different things. Rather, state law specifies that a weapon must be carried in a manner, in a time and a place that warrant alarm for the safety others. Mere open carry without corresponding action, is not sufficient to warrant alarm. I know, because I open carry on a regular basis, from Olympia, up to Seattle, and took a major roll in getting the Olympia Police department to train their officers on this matter (and stop pointing guns at me while walking down the street drinking tea). Read the FAQ's on open carry I co wrote http://opencarry.mywowbb.com/forum55/15411.html

    Yup, we are an Open Carry state, and I post on opencarry.org under the same handle as here. Please ignore the handful of crazy right wing extremists that might be found there though.

  9. Ummm on Emigrating To a Freer Country? · · Score: 1

    Come on. You want "free" and "public services" rolled into one. There is a balance between what the state provides, and what the state takes away. Somewhere between the public services rich cesspool of the UK and no public services at all, is a happy medium. Try doing for yourself.

    Why is the mag not inserted in the gun, and why are there no cartridges in the mag? Poor AK looks rusty and abused. Bet it still runs like a top though.
