I'm right there with you, but it's getting pretty meticulous. How about, if they don't stop nuclear production, drop leaflets warning the workers of the impending air-strike. Then do it. Remember, we are still technically at war with these assholes already.
Well, yeah, that's how it's SUPPOSED to work. You really think there will be any "serious consequences" if he doesn't hold up his part of the bargain? The cake will have been eaten by then, after all.
creating a national censorship scheme around a white list is a terrible idea. you'd be painting a target on ever site on the list. talk about making it easy for Anonymous and their skiddie freedom fighters to give you a hard time.
is that saying "We do not have reason to believe that there will be a catastrophic earthquake" or "It is not likely that there will be a catastrophic earthquake" is NOT the same as saying "There is no danger of a catastrophic earthquake".
What happened was the scientists came to the former consensus in the meeting, then the politician interpreted it as the latter, and then the politician relayed his version to the people.
IMHO, blaming the scientists is fucking absurd. I think that of the people indicted in this mess, the only one who is at fault is the politician. The most guilty people in this are the idiots who took action concerning their own safety based on their interpretation of what a politician said and against their better instincts.
I think that is a bad analogy. Consider that the afflicted members of these "raped" societies weren't around during said raping. It's like a rape resulting in a child, and then that child never having a normal life because it was the "victim" of rape. Sure, there are arguments that you're mother's inability to live normally due to her torments might have an effect on your upbringing, but throw me a frigging bone here. Go cry on William Kamkwamba's shoulder. I'm sure he'll offer some sympathy.
I'd say cheaper. Also, SR-71 flew much higher and faster than U-2. The article hinted at the U-2 sniffing stuff from the atmosphere. Perhaps SR-71 flies too fast for that. I recall reading something about how the thing was engineered so that it leaked fuel below a certain speed. This is all speculation, but I think that beyond price, U-2 can do things that satalites/SR-71 cannot. Sidenote: can anyone else smell the butt-fury from NG? They're pissed about this.
"Absolutely nothing. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a fun sideshow, but I don’t believe it says anything about the country other than that working democracy is like making haggis, in that you really don’t want to see what goes into that shit. It does say a lot about the state of the GOP, and I can’t help but wonder if the party moderates are just letting this parade of mental patients and unelectable criminals simply happen, so that they can detoxify the party after the inevitable firestorm of failure."
Most insightful shit concerning American politics that I've read in a while. And from a Brit!
Would it not have been better to leave his site up? They could have just waited for him to post new links, and then sick ICE on the sources of the allegedly infringing material. They get to boost their stats for number of sites seized when they report to their big media masters, and eventually everyone would realize every site he links to gets shut down. None of his content submitters would want to be next, so they'd stop submitting. No links also means no ad revenue; their problem would just go away.
No, what they're doing here is something far more sinister. They're making an example of this kid, and, more importantly, they're setting a precedent.
Most of the components in my cellular are produced in China. I don't care to dig into the origins of the invention of these components, but I doubt any of them are Israeli.
And sharing of military technology is one-sided at best. Especially considering the first item listed under Israeli military equipment in USA use is, in fact, American.
I'm not saying the Israelis don't have valuable technology, but we certainly wouldn't be defenseless and in the stone-age without Israeli innovation.
Oh, piss off. It was a quick/lazy google. Here is a more recent article about a high school student participating in a NSF funded program. Also, a friend of mine spent last summer working as an adviser with high school students on an NSF grant in Oregon. I could contact her for more details, but my point is that NSF does still run/sponsor programs that high school students can get involved in.
I'm not against your right to spout massive Zionist rants, but give us some citations for fuck sake.
suggest Israel stop giving technology, intelligence, military training, safe ports, protection, and everything else to the US. I am sure the families of US soldiers would thank you for this. And you personally should throw out your cell phone, computer, pretty much anything electronic, etc. because something inside or some piece was either invented or made in Israel.

You should read the book Daemon. It has this.
Wooosh!
It is obvious that you have never visited a country that has implemented Sharia law.
Troll or not, somebody owns the cake factory.

You're ISP doesn't record streams. They only log packet headers. The NSA on the other hand...
You've been waiting for this for a while, haven't you?

It seems like your nerdiness threshold is dangerously low for someone visiting this site.

I disagree with your added point. I didn't learn good homework/study habits until college, and I turned out alright.

Not if you're fighting an insurgency made up of folks who are not affiliated with a military.
Yeah! I mean, really, would you steal a car?
Trip them at best...
Not sure whether I should mod you down troll or redundant...

Really?
Who said they were discontinued?
