DISCLAIMER: I am a godless liberal in some respects, so I might be biased...but this is becoming like bitcoin, guys. A 3D printed gun is cool to me as a demonstration of the advanced state of the technology, but we don't need a story of even little happening with TEH 3D PRONTED GUNNS (GUBERMIENT, etc).
Slashdot has become awash with political crap. Let's return to a site for nerds, stuff that matters. Not stuff that rallies the libertarians and the collectivists, okay?
I trust in the good of individuals to do the right thing.
No you don't. Otherwise, you wouldn't buy a gun. You wouldn't put locks on your doors. You wouldn't connect to websites using SSL. You really don't trust others, you'd rather put restrictions on them (reduce their power in democratic process) while you'd be able to do whatever you want. You want them to trust you to do the right thing and not take advantage of them. You can't trust them; why can they trust you?
Libertarianism in politics is like solipism in philosophy. Why would anyone want you to be the point of existence when they could be?
Good! They don't need government intervention, soon the free market will offer a privacy-friendly service and the free market will eventually choose that over these other services that don't respect my privacy.
But, don't regulate! Keep your government off my information-tracking ad service! The only thing that can stop a bad guy with a spying/tracking ad service is a good guy with a spying/tracking ad service.
The chemical is ATP. Not really ATP completely, but they found that a sample of a meteorite reacted with some acidic solution gave pyrophosphite, a reduced pyrophosphate (I think, chemistry kinda rusty) and thus, they believed they could have found a possible, natural mechanism to give "life" energy without the "irreducibly complex" enzymes for breaking ATP down.
It's funny reading the above C_FOR_LYFE diehard hackers above decrying this. I don't know, this is damn smart, get the language to hard boil a construct. Seriously awesome, although, it is an eyesore.
I don't know if you haven't figured this out, but it is "we, the people", and not the government. Did you see the last election? Did libertarians or conservatives win the election against that negro-socialist hot-n-tot and his cronies?
So, understand this, you are a minority. Now, oppression of a minority is something that our country fundamentally stands against. However, this is not the case of the oppression of a minority; this is the case of the oppression from a minority, an oligarchy of the rich and powerful, using the fundamental rights in perversion to continue the off-loading of their externalities onto others by controlling the debate. They don't stifle free speech, they simply drown out the other voices by talking louder. So, that is easily legal, is it moral? Does it follow the spirit of freedom as much as it does the letter?
Correllation does not equal causation. May be without twitter, these people were unmotivated to use proper spelling and grammar anyway. Enough of this "old days" shit. Did your obsession with computers back in the day hinder your social development and successfulness today? Well may be it did, idk.
It didn't end in disaster, but it really could have been worse. Some people rely on warning systems like this...think of, for example, tornado warning systems. I'll admit, I laughed, and I do agree; it pointed out a weakness in the system that shouldn't have been there. Still, the right thing to do is to stop the culture of encouraging grey hat behavior by rewarding people who find weaknesses...rather than simply condoning them.
Do you ever take a day off, or do you work year round? Nonetheless, for arbitrary reasons or not, some people actually enjoy holidays. I, personally, am somewhat fond of CNY since I have a bunch of friends who celebrate it, although I don't I do agree that we should celebrate it since it doesn't carry a lot of historical or cultural significance in the US.
Perhaps this means that conservation efforts over the last decade have had effect? I don't know, I'm honestly speaking from a point of view that is ignorant of climate science. In any case, this is great news.

Hell of a way to validate Godwin's Law... Let's argue against it with science and reduce to their level.

Get your government off my drone.
The only thing that stops a bad guy with a drone is a good guy with a drone.
Duh, Obama?
This is just so awesome. As a Nikon fan, I'm a little upset it's canon, lol. But no, this is awesome.
(in before paranoia about big gubermint surveillance, etc, please go away, just enjoy the cool tech)
Beat me to it. lol :/
As if it weren't coming I guess

Ubuntu is evil! Richard Stallman says so!!
I have to note, just because you linked to an article doesn't mean all of your statements are sourced.
For the lazy, the linked article isn't too long.

Okay, sure. But...why Lua? :/
What did the Greeks do for all those centuries before the printing press?
Why is this modded anything? Do you have some reasoning for your claim?
Because drones have a bad name.

Thanks for the clarification.
