There is various data on Wikipedia. See the NEET page for example. NEET is a term invented by the UK to describe that kind of people: "not in education, employment or training". It might be slightly different, because a NEET is not necessarily a shut-in, but it usually goes together.
It is not the role of the law to decide what may arouse people or not. Being aroused by fictional depictions of acts that would be illegal is perfectly fine. Actually, studies show people being able to enjoy such fictional works are less likely to perform such acts in real life.
Moreover, it's not just tied to paedophilia. Fictional works can have depictions of rape, zoophilia or incest, and performing those acts might be illegal in certain countries. I would believe that making a pornographic comic book depicting rape is perfectly legal even in the US. Hell, there is plenty of live-action porn produced in the US with fictional sexual abuse.
The word "bullet" is sometimes colloquially used to refer to ammunition in general, or to a cartridge, which is a combination of the bullet, case/shell, powder, and primer.
From wikipedia. It's also not Internet-specific.
The millions and millions of people who've been in the military
I doubt millions of people in the US are ex-military. Nevertheless, professionals know better about their subject than the common man. That's hardly surprising.
You could make ammunition without metal, and some propellants are easily detectable with the right casing materials. Of course this will significantly affect efficiency and failure rate.
I see. Indeed, I do not know of any solutions that allows to remotely play music on several devices synchronously. I know see the point of this technology, thanks.
Most of software development these days is done for smartphones. Developing for iOS is better done on a Mac, so no, not 80% of developers run on Windows. Then again, most of the smartphone app-level software is very simplistic software, so if you're only considering serious software, chances is that the rate of Windows users will be higher. And if you're considering "very serious" software, chances are that the developers will be on Linux instead.
I know that at least for C++, Microsoft has made a big campaign in the past couple of years to try to get more developers interested, including hiring big shots from the community and organizing key events. They're even going to try fixing some of the bigger bugs in their compilers after chosen to ignore them for many years.
It's a simple thing really. People want floating windows, not things that forces a context switch and changes the whole screen. Some people have wide screens and run multiple application in parallel. The paradigm that made Microsoft Windows popular is to use floating windows to organize your multiple applications working concurrently.
I already pointed out the difference, and it is a major one. There is no problem making money with freely available information. The problem is closing it down.
It would be a much greater public benefit to make this public domain. Google owns the data and all its redistribution rights. It can choose to restrict access whenever it wants.

You were living the dream and you discarded it for normalcy. How sad.

Sorry I meant "undetectable" here, not "detectable".
All that's really needed is a barrel and something to struck the primer. You can use a simple pipe as a gun.

While you are technically correct, in colloquial usage bullet and ammo are interchangeable for the same thing.
Making lethal lasers with plastic parts is quite more difficult than making a plastic gun.
Once he has shot his weapon, there is no need to shoot him down anymore.
Because criminals follow the law, right?
I see.
Indeed, I do not know of any solutions that allows to remotely play music on several devices synchronously. I know see the point of this technology, thanks.
What does synchronous mean in this context?
There are lots of protocols to play music over the network. This summary suggests there was none but AirPlay.
how is itunes related to the Internet?
I thought it was a bloated media player and iThing management application from Apple.
Mac OS X and most of the new Linux desktops have serious UI problems too, and at least for the latter it is being discussed on Slashdot all the time.

Why don't you use C++ then?
They want to sell themes on the app store.

Bayonetta is pretty light on the fanservice compared to most modern japanese games.

You're right, Google isn't known for shutting down services randomly.
It would be a much greater public benefit to make this public domain.

This is significantly different. Slashdot does not have exclusive rights to redistribute what I write here.
