What reason was there to go to the Wild Wild West?
What reason was there to go to the New World?
What reason was there to leave Africa?
In the Wild, Wild West, the New World and other places than Arfrica, there was air to breathe, food to eat and water to drink. In space, not so much: you have to take it with you and it will run out.
Not that I'm a big fan of royals, UKan or otherwise, but Prince Andrew played exocet decoy for a bit during the Falkland War. Note that at the time, exocets were a very real threat.
A couple of claymores on the outside of the satellite would probably be enough to kill any approaching astronaut and do enough damage that the spacecraft could no longer re-enter.
Of course it's a challenge- there's not a hard and fast definition which applies. Is a child which is strapped up with a bomb vest, which is then remote detonated, a soldier or a civilian? Doesn't matter, it's a weapon.
And you're overlooking the fact that we use an incorrect definition of "civilian". Anybody who works for, with, or on behalf of the goverment is not actually a "civilian"... true they may be non-military but they are not civilians and technically should be "fair game" for many types of military action.
Osama Bin Laden liked your idea so much he implemented it September 11, 2001.

What the hell is a Qi? I don't know, but I can get 66 points for it.

No, he really means "literally". I've seen python coders run circles around c coders several times, it's pretty disturbing really.

Dresden Codac sounds like a name straight from a Moebius comic.
A large part of our being nice relies on laws.
But look what happens to people "above the law". Copyright Legislators? Not Nice.
You confuse cause and effect.
They're above the law because of their not-nice behaviour, not the other way around.
No. The terrorist goal is to blow a plane, not an airport room (they could go to any crowded shop instead).
Right.
No, but you'll retain more quallity when you manipulate sound, ie. time stretching or altering pitch.
If I have to text (or talk) while driving,[...]
You don't.
You realize this is the exact line of thinking followed by the folks who flew planes into the Twin Towers, right?

I wonder what the chemical notation for sarcas(MM) oxide is.
Yes, but what about that other .007 person?
He has a license to kill.
Dust off the cello to play some blood music, you mean.
your rant sounds familiar.
"Ro! Sco! Co! Smo!"?
What you say!!
They should have brought in gorillas.

Really.
Jeff Tracy? Is that you?
Cops who allow these bad cops to be bad cops are not "good cops".
To me, "atheist" is no different than "strong atheist".
To me, "Scotsman" is no different than "True Scotsman".

Indeed. If they run, they're the enemy. if they don't run, they're well disciplined enemy.
Hive societies are a different creature entirely.
I see what you did there.
