Well said, thank you. I might add that this extends very much to the "civilian" police forces as well. They are waaaaay over trained with the first conditioned respone being deadly force. Shoot first and make up shit later...
i remember in '66 when Star Trek first came out and my best friend was the only one in the neighborhood rich enough to own a color tv. All the kids would gather at their house entranced by the amazing sci-fi stories rendered in glorious colors. It was a great time to be a kid, walking to and from school every day, stopping by the creek to watch the tadpoles growing up, sleeping with all the windows and doors open. Yup, Ima geezer!!!
This is evident in more than journalism. It is evident everywhere. Quite simply, we cannot rule ourselves which in this case means throttling back to a point where we can cope with the deluge of stimulus that technology has pressed upon us. As far as I can tell, the quality of goods and services across the board has gone down. Of course I'm looking at it from the bottom of the dung pile, so I expect for the time being, the elites are still getting some pretty good stuff. The WalMart crowd is getting stuff that used to go only to third world countries. Remember this: The only advantage the elites have is that they will be the last to starve.
THANK YOU MIKKO!
After 9-11, the U.S. interdiction efforts quickly morphed from international terrorism to internations and domestic terrorism with equal emphasis placed on both. IMHO, the U.S. Govt is currently more concerned about domestic terrorism than about foreign operatives. Sorry Mikko, you are wrong on that count.
So they find some way to Scroogle it... Where there's a will, there's a way. Google has a lot of customers in the developer world, but I'm guessing they don't have that many friends.

Actually, I think the peak for Ubuntu and Gnome 2 was 10.04 LTS. It was a sad day when that expired. OBTW: I'm now happily churning the LTS version of Mint Mate. Happy days, I can still get some work done...
Simply put, they don't trust us enough to use our system...and are willing to spend billions of Euros to prove it. Perhaps, maybe the GPS constellation should become a UN protectorate and no nation should be able to weaponize it... Just sayin'
As far as I know, we are the only creatures on the planet that require the use of toilet paper. Yup, he did a number on us..., or did we come down from the trees and have to stand up to see the lions in the grasslands???
What? Just because some D.E.A. Nimrod shows up with crap from a warrant mill in the basement of some D.C. government office building we should all just bend over. Go ahead, tell me that we don't have judges that rubber stamp piles of paper every day...
Did metro learn this from unity or did unity learn this from metro? OBTW: I will note here that M$s customer base demographics are heavily weighted toward two of the three members of the evil trinity. i.e. Big Business and Big Government. The Big Media weenies tend toward iThis and iThat. Without the bump from these two monsters, M$ would be in whirling toilet water.

This and 3D printing are all the mechanical devils need to replicate and take over. Our goose is cooked!!!
Too bad, if I had mod points, I'd mod you up for that. ;-D
I wonder if they are going to put methane detectors in the seat cushions? ...and smoke detectors???
No, NASA = ANASS -- FTFY,,,

[Frankly, i think I would rather they are off in the back of some parking lot, parked cruisers window to window]
That's called 69ing...
They do have another solution. Without ammunition, a gun is a very expensive stick.
No, no. The only thing worse than a Republican is a Democrat... and the only thing scarier than a bureaucrat with a gun is a bureaucrat in a robe.
Hey, I've eaten a few vegetarians in my life. They taste just fine...
I'd vote for hanging all of them...and their brother and sister too. Let God sort them out...
Well then, barred spirals must have mis-behaved in some way...

Yup, like your "dream home", complete with vaulted ceilings and skylights. Find a nice place on the beach and git to whackin'.

Well, let's see: Federal, State, Local...in the immortal words of Morpheus, "You all look the same to me."
