Found it:
Article IV of the Outer Space Treaty prohibits placing in orbit around the earth any objects carrying nuclear weapons or any other kinds of weapons of mass destruction (WMD). It also prohibits the testing and the deployment of any kind of weapon on the moon or other celestial bodies
I seem to recall that the U.S. is signatory to a treaty that specifically prohibits putting weapons in space, as well as claiming any celestial real estate. Has this changed, or is the U.S. just so arrogant that treaties are only relevant when other people try to evade or violate them?
Just wondering.
let's see..... (I'm not sure what exactly you mean by "pure" socialism, so I'll just go with very Socialist) Most of the Nordic countries Sweden, the Netherlands, etc., or a close neighbour to you, Canada. Yeah, we fall off the wagon and elect a Conservative every once in a while, but we more than survived Trudeau the First and his Socialist decades.
What do you do when someone is sent to jail in Canada for simply saying something like "Islam is not a religion of peace"?
As a Canadian, we don't send anyone to jail in Canada for simply saying something like "Islam is not a religion of peace". We send you to jail for teaching kids that the Holocaust is a commie-jew hoax, or for advocating violence against a protected class.
Locking someone up AFTER THE FACT does not prevent the behaviour, it punishes it (if you're really lucky, you may rehabilitate the individual and prevent a REPEAT of the offence).
Can concur, mostly. Typed them in, had paper-tape backup from the teletype before we got cassette or floppy. But, that said, Try the "newer" Fallout games, or Skyrim. If you can deal with the cell-animation/rotoscoped feel of them, the Borderlands series were a lot of fun.
To my understanding it is precisely because she is head of the church that she is Queen. When the Pope excommunicated Henry, he kept the "DOTF" title, started a new church, and legitimated his own Divine Right to the Throne.
Any Brit constitutional scholars out there, I am more than happy to be illuminated should the above prove incorrect.
I am not a constitutional lawyer, however, that being said, Britain can not outlaw religion as it is a theocracy. The Queen is not just the Head of State, she is also the "Defender of the Faith" and head of the Church of England. Outlawing religion in the U.K.would result in a constitutional crisis that makes Edward abdicating look like tea-time.
I was aware of the lightbulb trick. Wasn't he also working on a way to tap into the magnetic field of the Earth itself, and use that to power devices? Possibly a conspiracy theory, but the story I heard was that when he was asked by his backer "And how would we meter that?" he replied "we won't, it'll be free" , and the funding was cut off.
To paraphrase what our Supreme Court said (back in the late 80's or early 90's - time makes things slightly fuzzy) "Peer-to-peer networking is much like having a photocopier in a library - there is nothing inherently illegal in it."
We have generally had a bit more lenient an interpretation of "fair use" as well.

JESUS CHRIST. Not he/she it is a HE. HE WAS BORN A DUDE. I can dress a pig as a cow doesnt change the fact it is a pig!
Funny how most folks who have an issue with the LBGTQ set try to bring god into the argument.

Let's hope.
What's the chance that companies might move their hosting up north?

Don't forget the Pricipia Discordia. Hail Eris, but quietly, you don't want her paying too much attention to you.
Oh, you mean like this? https://www.theguardian.com/te...
Well said. That is all

Like I said - stupid, but possible. You just don't have those services, or you try to keep them and have your companies collapse.

Sadly, they can. They shouldn't, it's suicidally stupid, but like that ever stopped a "think of the children" hysteria.

/sarcasm Yeah, back in the day me an' Nick used to rag on the ass-hat Tom Edison all the time./sarcasm Telsa, Nicola = Nick
Yeah, wasn't Nick working on this like, oh, a century plus ago? About the time he designed the generators for Niagara Falls?
You do remember why your White House is white, don't you? Last time you tried that sh!t we had to light a little fire on Pennsylvania Ave.

Anything that comes out of Mr. Smith's studio is worth a listen
Another alternative is the calm voice from the North, CBC is only partly co-opted at the moment.
