These types of weapons are generally mounted on the outside of the ship, and they fire outwards. They generally do not turn in or fire along the length of the ship, so the crew should be fine. Likewise, there typically aren't many bystanders while at sea.
I would imagine that if you shot the water, it would turn to steam. I doubt it would remain very reflective for long, or that it effectively would reflect much in the first place.
Weapons whose purpose is to blind are banned. Weapons where the side effect is going blind are not. I can still put a laser on my gun to help me aim, but it's not going to get me in trouble if I blind someone while taking head shots. Likewise, if I shoot you in the face with a regular gun, and you are blinded, it's fine because the intent of the gun is not to blind.
Exactly, just overheat the electronics and let the thing do what ever the missile version of the Red Ring of Death is called. Whether it explodes or just falls out of the sky, it's not going to do much without any control systems working.
And those countries are also typically pretty far from lawless areas, or have rather oppressive governments. If we were to try anything like that, we'd need to either build a wall across our southern border, or start marching south to put an end to the cartels.
Change banks or get a new credit card for any reason, and you have one more account to update. Forget to update, and your computers may not work.
What if your live account gets hacked and they suspend it? Will windows still work?
It doesn't matter how fancy your set up is if Microsoft can stop your computer from working on their end.
Your argument of "other things can break too" is pointless. I know that any number of things can bring down a network or computer. The question is, why add one more? And no, "AutoCAD did it first!" isn't a valid reason. As many of our parents probably stated in the past, "If AutoCAD jumped off a bridge, would you do it too?"
You get five copies with Office365, as well as 5 1TB cloud accounts. 2 years may pay off one computer, but if I have several in the household, it comes out a little better. The cloud storage is also a nice bonus. I'm not sure of any other services that give you anything close to that much storage for the same price.
I first learned GIMP, it was great for shopping hilarious images of friends or politicians.
When I got a job at a small business, it was enough to help out the graphic team with cutting out images and doing minor edits as needed. Then, for reasons unknown, they fired the graphics team and I became The Guy for all of that. I learned Photoshop as quickly as I could (Thanks YouTube), and haven't looked at GIMP since.
I still think it's grossly overpriced, but it works and does it's thing better than GIMP.
I've always considered the Adobe suite to be overpriced. The $50 a month is a bit more than I'm willing to pay. Even the $20 for a single app seems a bit high for me.
Actually, there were a few laws passed regarding this, and for a lot of the devices, they can't refuse. I used to work there, I remember all the trainings and such we had to complete for it.
You can modify your car however you want. But it may become illegal to drive on public roads. In PA, we have to have our cars inspected every year to ensure that they are "safe" to drive. This has nothing to do with ownership or licensing.
CDMA phones do have an ESN or MEID that is specific to the phone itself, but as long as the carriers have the same phones and technology, you can generally take them between carriers. They may need to have the software flashed to the right version for the carrier for some of the features to work, but otherwise, it's possible.
Actually, no, the phone you buy from Verizon Wireless is yours. You can buy a compatible phone from anywhere, you can sell your phone to anybody. You can even bring phones from other carriers or even build one yourself in your basement.
Though if you build one yoruself, they will require the ability to test it to ensure it doesn't harm the network in anyway.
Crashing machines is perfectly fine if your goal is to halt their operation. Maintaining control is fine until you really need that other computer to just stop.

Hey, I think I was actually at that one
But they can dodge targeting systems and the motors that control the laser
Do we have a link to the latest copy?

You get Outlook and Access, which I don't believe you get with Home and Student. You also get five licenses, not three. And the cloud storage too.
You're forgetting the steam, it's the steam that's important.

Kinda like our anti drug laws have made all drug problems go away, right?
Drugs have been outlawed, but that hasn't stopped drugs from getting their hands on them.
Likewise, violence is violence. You don't need a gun to commit violence.
I've always considered the Adobe suite to be overpriced. The $50 a month is a bit more than I'm willing to pay. Even the $20 for a single app seems a bit high for me.
I'm tempted to do the $9.99 Office360 because it comes with five licenses, as well as five individual 1TB cloud accounts (that may become "unlimited")
If office365 breaks, I just go to Google Docs or OpenOffice to work on stuff. If Windows breaks, I'm down for good.

It may not have happened before, but it certainly could happen...

That would require talent.
So you are saying I shouldn't connect it to random coffee shop wifi networks?
