Well it was exactly in the past few years that the democratically elected EP has de facto seized power over the Union. I guess what you were trying to say is that the EU has become less federalistic over time, which is true, but the age of nationstates is over anyway and we should move on to a new era. Of course, care must be taken so that the increasing power of the Union doesn't get unchecked but the huge bureaucracy takes care of that for the moment. It's also unfair to blame the Union for a plan of a proposal, which may not even see the light, may get rejected or amended to lose its fangs. And why would you be happier with a more federalistic Union if you don't trust your own government to begin with?
True, while this system is too unreliable to work on it's own, I can imagine a hybrid solution where it pops up a traditional password authentication if you move your mouse differently than usual. It could be of some use in high-security places in case an employee leaves the machine on and forgots to log out, but then if you have enemies gaining physical access to your security-sensitive stuff you have already failed.
Rather than trying to keep in mind which sites not to visit you could just upgrade your browser to a version that can't be hacked by a website. Of course, AV companies would get far less money without naive people believing their FUD.
This has been proven true. We have enough temperature data to confidently say that temperatures have been steadily increasing since about 1850.
2) There's global warming, but the scientists are exaggerating. It's not significant.
This has been proven false. The 6 degree increase we should be experiencing now according to alarmists simply doesn't exist.
3) There's significant global warming, but man doesn't cause it.
This may be true, we have proof that there were much bigger climate changes even before man.
4) Man does cause it, but it's not a net negative.
This is a tricky one, I would say that too rapid change is never good for the environment, at least not in the short term. But if you only care about the effets on agriculture, it may very well be possible to breed/engineer crops that thrive in the new climate.
5) It is a net negative, but it's not economically possible to tackle it.
That's most certainly false, but the real question is whether its negative effects cost more than to stop it.
There is still much more research needed on the topic, and bringing politics into the debate is exactly what's halting progress.
On May 16 last year, a 22-year-old Austrian named Maqsood Lodin was being questioned by police in Berlin. He had recently returned from Pakistan via Budapest, Hungary, and then traveled overland to Germany. His interrogators were surprised to find that hidden in his underpants were a digital storage device and memory cards.
Yeah, steganography pretty much fails when you shove the thing up in your ass. Law enforcers tend to find that suspicious.
This is the latest grab for defence money. Cyberwarfare is getting old enough that some people will start to believe in it for the sole reason that they heard it so many times.
The tool has already been used to expose censorship by T-Mobile of its prepaid phones' browser and also by the Palestinian Authority, which was found to be blocking opposition websites. The minister responsible for the Palestinian censorship was forced to resign last week.

It's much easier to shoot down an outgoing missiles before they accelerate to full speed.

At this point the whole post is pure speculation, the Commission may not even try to push it, and if it does it still has to go through the EP.

It could be a guard dog.

It's called rugby you dumb Americans.
what was the FBI supposed to do? Throw up their hands and say "Nothing can be done" to the parents and students at the University.
Yes. There is no way to stop anonymous threats from happening. But you aren't required to evacuate every time a 12 year old kid calls you.
What's a bookstore?
You mean more Chromy, don't you? Firefox hasn't looked like FF for a long while.
Which is exactly why it's pointless to post it, as it may not even turn out to be real.
just patentable in Germany!
But it's a medium that the kids use, so if a teacher wants to effectively communicate them it seems like an obvious choice.
I don't think freedom of association applies under 18.
Guess that doing a risk analysis before releasing the papers wasn't the end of the world after all.
if Google has the h264 patents couldn't they just offer it free of charge instead of developing their own version?
1) There's no such thing as global warming.
This has been proven true. We have enough temperature data to confidently say that temperatures have been steadily increasing since about 1850.
2) There's global warming, but the scientists are exaggerating. It's not significant.
This has been proven false. The 6 degree increase we should be experiencing now according to alarmists simply doesn't exist.

You're right, I forgot a few zeroes.
This is a global survey not an American one.
Those winds would be much faster than the surface orbital velocity of Pluto, something is not right here.

Maybe people are switching to mobile net?

I would like to see that happen in Europe too.
Natural selection was somewhat present around 1800. A lot has happened since then.
