I upgraded from striped 15K RPM SCSI drives. The SSD was noticeably faster, but not anything on the scale I was hearing.
When you first powered it on, was it like that sensation one gets after irrigating out a bunch of ear wax? When someone walks into your computer room, isn't it nice that you NO LONGER HAVE TO TALK LIKE THIS?
The game theory here is very frustrating. Given the goals we want to achieve (nuclear disarmament) and the constraints we have (the North Korean people should suffer as little as possible)
If there were a way to synchronize the delivery of every US nuclear weapon at NK, I believe both objectives can be met.
Professionalism aside, for any type-As reading, introverts are not broken extroverts. For many of us who are not social butterflies, these "team building" exercises are NOT particularly helpful, but rather demeaning.
If there's one thing I could communicate to the inhabitants of these modern-day concentration camps, it would be this: "suck it up; no one is coming to help you".
Part of me wonders if folks in the U.S. administration and abroad, at least subconsciously, hope NK develops the bomb including a credible delivery mechanism. Politically, it's an acceptable excuse to do absolutely nothing.
I suppose all those first-hand accounts I heard from holocaust survivors were all for naught. Oh well. Sucks to be you, indeed.
Your depiction of current Sino-Russian relations isn't accurate. And Russia would love nothing more than to infiltrate and undermine NATO due to the fact that former Soviet-Bloc countries are now members of the organization.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the Captain has turned on the 'tinfoil bag' sign."
For starters, I wish people would stop using the word "crazy". It's not helpful.

However, it's possible an actual lawyer might come up with something, but it would likely be a class action, and only serve to enrich themselves.
If the lawyer or any of those he represents* can raise the issue in the national media then I don't care about his motivations.
