    Ukraine is not much further than where the plane might have ended up.

    Seriously, until the masses/sheeple/sleepers are awakened, nothing will change.

  6. white hot on Drones Used To Smuggle Drugs Into Prison · · Score: 1

    i think you mean "white hot shit" not "white shit hot", although if one were to have "white shit", it would inevitably be warmer than the regular brown variety because the person would be very sick and probably have a high temperature.

    So, by the same logic, the Republic of Texas should be allowed to secede, since they never agreed to be annexed by the USA.

    If you are about to die (or your country is about to dissolve), what would stop you from trying to get a parting shot off at the enemy who is destroying you?

    Russia occupies Romania/Crimea to protect their citizens - May 1853
    Russia occupies Crimea to protect their citizens - Feb 2014

    Old tactics that didn't work back then may work now, especially since USA is neutered by an ineffectual leader.

    we like our substances, dammit

  11. if you have money on Massachusetts Court Says 'Upskirt' Photos Are Legal · · Score: 1

    160 years ago the Russians started the Crimean War with the excuse that they were protecting the Christians in the collapsing Ottoman Empire.

  17. nuclear cars on Laser Headlights Promise More Intense, Controllable Beams · · Score: 1

    I prefer to think they would detonate on impact into a small mushroom cloud, similar to how it works in Fallout 3.

    I could give two shits about the new policy, but since I need the badge to open the toilet, I can't.

  20. Re:They should call it an anti-retention device on Virtual Boss Keeps Workers On a Short Leash · · Score: 1

    Why would we need management, if we have these new devices? Aren't they supposed to replace management? That would be the real cost-savings to most companies.

  24. Re:Here's what's funny about all of this on Canadian Spy Agency Snooped Travelers With Airport Wi-Fi · · Score: 4, Insightful

    You don't have to track everyone's movements and monitor all calls to stop terrorist attacks. Having less porous security would be a much easier way to stop attacks without dialing up the police state to Orwellian levels.

    Putting locks on cockpit doors and doing better background checks of airport personnel have far better impacts and don't require obscene surveillance.

  25. Re:It's not private... on Federal Agency Data-Mining Hundreds of Millions of Credit Card Accounts · · Score: 1

    How about from Reagan's inaugural address: "In this present crisis, government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem."
