"It's always a little strange to see the 'New York to London' figure given for something that is fairly clearly intended for blunt-force diplomacy, not passenger travel."
Lest we forget, US has fought two wars against Britain, which killed thousands more American civilians than any aggressor since.
The only thing keeping the Brits in their box is DETERRENCE!!
"That's a laugh. US toilets are a complete disaster and far inferior to the European ones. The main issue is that if you are a man and you do not have a tiny, tiny, tiny (extremely tiny) penis, it is very difficult to avoid either dunking your penis into the water or having it touch the forward inner wall of the bowl."
Correct. You either have to order a bowl designed for public lavatories (they are typically wider and longer and the seat is "U"-shaped to get proper meat clearance. For obvious profit reasons (small, light shitters are cheaper to make and ship), most consumer US toilets aren't very good.
The best toilets are stainless steel institutional toilets, but they are expensive new. You can find the combo toilet/sink units on Ebay, useful if you are building a very small house, cabin, etc.
"Some guy grabs a woman's crotch and he's caught, call the cops. He commitez a felony, and if you try to bury it with internal "discipline", you've just commited one too."

This is easy in a workplace. Set the policy, enforce the policy fairly, and treat defiance of policy as grounds for making an example of the problem human to deter others.
Some problems are simple matters of imposing discipline on those who lack it. The ideal procedures for managing humans were perfected in successful militaries over thousands of years. They work. End of story.

For extra points:
Who supplied the WTC attackers?

"Interesting the .gay thing, considering how infamous Saudi Party Boys are..."
That's among the reasons Saudis pray in KSA but party in Bahrain.

The economy is booming, and the energy export sector will boom for decades as Asia grows.
You might consider a change in professions to suit their needs, but Oz is rich and getting richer.
Do MALES being present create a "minefield" for gay male hackers?

"The American people are too uneducated, it seems, to have this discussion"
They have religion, to which education is a dire threat.
That pumice is from a thing which makes Cthulhu look as innocent as the Geico gecko.
It fell off when my mother-in-law was stoning her corns.
YMMV.
Standing isn't better for my trashed discs and scoliosis.
There is good reason modern jet fighters have recumbent seating, and it's not just for G forces.
I inherited a power recliner and can spend many hours surfing in it with zero discomfort.

Perptual interface changes burden users who have sunk time and effort learning to use previous versions to GET WORK DONE.
Why help an evil corporate citizen improve its product line?
If MSFT fields a version which kicks users in the yarbles with every mouse click, I support their right to do so!

There was only ONE Beatrice Arthur.
I regard them as healthy, because unless herd resistance to such things is built up by exposure, the herd will be less robust.
"One can only hope that the governments that released Flame, Stuxnet, and now this, become victims of their own weapons."
That would usefully coerce them to adopt better practices.
