>> A shuttle can lift 30ton into LEO. Yep. Somehow, LEO does not sound like a good idea. All things you send to LEO come back to earth within years

You are totally right ! And there is another point to it : radioactive waste is releasing various (radioactive, and explosive) gasesover time. You cannot hold these gases forever, so you have to vent them into the athmosphere >> a barrier is not only imposible, but it's also not desirable over the long term.
That is BS. Robots did not work in '86. Today's electronics and plastics are much more vulnerable to rad than in '86. it will inevitably end like that : http://www.archifiction.org/34...
All of this is because Telekom is making other ISPs paying insane fes for peering, which forces them to route through the USA instead to have peering at a lower cost indirectly to Telekom (also known as Drosselkom), passing all data directly to the NSA and co.
Mint is a security problem in itself. It takes ubuntu, and strips it from upgrade, strips it from some updates, fro broken reasons. Why break functionnality insted of making the right thing, which would be to limit it by default, for example.
>> A fake cell won't work as in LTE the authentication is mutual:
Yeah. Everything is not encrypted. There is still a huge attack surface. One simple example : downgrade attack. Simply switch to GSM, and the baseband will respond to your fake BS with the same old buggy and broken protocols, using code not really updated since 1997.
>> if their tablet OS wasn't sitting on millions of desktops that I and thousands of others have to support. *ouch* Just don't support it anymore:) and breathe.

Beta is crap. We want Slashdot back.

No need to worry. Usually it takes some years for the first symptoms to arrive.

No. it was 573 official deaths, 10 months after.

Mining tritium on the moon ?
not a good idea.
If you bring it back and it explodes in the athmosphere during reentry, we are all dead.
BTW, slashdot beta is shit.

Better put theim in the thrash bag instead
Code signing ? This does not remove exploitable holes in that cleanly signed (but shitty) code.

not exactly.
it comes with the cost of being tied to an aeging-soon-to-be-obsoleted platform.
What could possibly go wrong ???

Just don't support it anymore

It's almost as if the security society is selling the appearance of security instead of actual security. Surely, they wouldn't be so mercenary.
>> "I am USA citizen, do not spy on me, dear NSA!" What about rest of the world?
Being a citizen of country X or Y does not change anything, nobody cares in intelligence agencies. Being a citizen gives you no protection.
No, in Sovit countries it's 1. May, not 1. April.
