People die every day, and in the US it's more likely to be from bee stings than terrorist activity.
Yet we've determined to spend billions to make that a zero percentage. What about those terrorist bees!?
Shhh. If you pretend you're afraid, maybe the government wont have to make any more terrorists. And plus; bees are good for arthritis - terrorists only write and file FOIAs.
Hmm. It is still ridiculous to extradite him. I wrote a little article on the subject, mostly lampooning it: http://eccentricintelligenceagency.info/archives/784
I am not so sure searching for information is wrong. If so, no more than lying to the public - which the US military does to excess. IMO the whole case on McKinnon is irrelevant.
Waiter: Welcome to the Gastrointestinal Cafe, Might I recommend the crap-cakes, or perhaps our famous vegetarian scat-burger? – it’s wonderful!
Customer: Can you tell me what district you get your sewage from, sir?
Waiter: I can assure you it comes from a strictly upper-class community of people with good taste. Also..
Customer: Sounds fine. Does it come with freedom-fries?
Waiter: [*smiles and winks*] It wouldn’t be a scat-burger if it didn’t! An extra larger portion actually, with our special dipping
Customer: That’ll do. And I’ll have it medium-well too. I just don’t trust rare, no matter who it comes from.
Waiter: [*all smiles*] I understand – that’s how I like it too.
Customer: And how about your beer menu?
Waiter: Oh, for imports we have carbonated urine from France, Belgium, Germany, and Switzerland, and our domestic list includes Milwaukee, Florid
Customer: I prefer the real thing; just gimmie a Bud Light in the can. Florida right?
Waiter: Yes, and an excellent choice sir; the foreign urine brewing process still hasn’t caught up with Bud. And would you like to try our frumunda-cheese and crackers? It is extracted from selected NFL football champions and is.
Customer:..No, I think that should do. Could you by any chance put in a request for the ass-machine to play the latest Justin Bieber song? I just can’t get it out of my head since arriving here at the port o’let resort. And it’s so catchy!
Waiter: [*smiles*] We’ll have a busboy gas it up right away, but it may take a while – we usually don’t get such shitty requests.
Customer: Thanks so much.
Waiter: If there’s anything else you need, just ask.
Customer: [*reclines in chair, thinks*] “this is the life”. [*fart noises fill the air, and he begins to sing along*]
"Honestly I don't use either Synaptic or the Software Center. I do it all on the command-line using apt-cache and apt-get."
I always found update-manager convenient in that I could omit unwanted updates by ticking boxes and look at descriptions of the updates before accepting them. Not quite as easy in terminal. When I know precisely what I want to install, apt-get is great; but when I need to sift through possibly problematic upgrades (flash, etc.), I prefer to have an easily-read interface, which I think update-manger did a very fine job of. But since I would literally rather force-feed myself an Active-Directory book rather than use GNOME3 or Unity, I guess I shouldn't have to worry. Arch is now looking mighty fine to me: http://www.archlinux.org/news/the-canterbury-project/ - and for having an easy to use OS on hand, I think I'll go with Debian or Mint on a separate partition.

As long they are fair about it: http://eccentricintelligenceagency.info/archives/2326 then we can listen to them too.
And to that I say... 'so?'
