There's absolutely nothing wrong with sex when neither participant is married. [...] If both parties are fine with it, there's nothing wrong with it.
This isn't just about you or some imaginary magic man in the sky. It's about hurting your partner, the child you may create, and any 3rd party that may be a spouse. Spreading hepatitis is not OK, especially when an unknowing 3rd party may be affected. Causing children to grow up in broken homes is not OK. Falsely causing a person to believe you will be faithful is not OK.
In other words, this is about being responsible and being decent to your fellow human beings.
BTW, I also think that divorce should be highly restricted and I think that virginity should be valued in both sexes. I'm a tad old-fashioned, despite being an atheist unfit for the middle ages. Strong and stable families are good for humanity.
Marriage is a purely legal status and has nothing to do with morality.
I have a bad feeling that you would get married only to please a partner who felt otherwise. If true, you're a sociopath. One of my biggest fears is that one of my children gets fooled by somebody with your attitude. It would be devastating to his/her life and to the lives of his/her children.
I care. There are two kinds of sex outside of marriage.
The first is when neither party is married. We call this "fornication". There probably ought to be a $500 fine for this. (to discourage spreading disease, creating bastard children, and falsely claiming love to get sex)
The second is when at least one party is married to some other person. We call this "adultry". It's pure evil. The punishment should be determined by the wronged person/people, to include stoning if they wish. If allowed to live, the adulterer/adultress should automatically lose divorce battles against any innocent person including future spouses.
First of all, you can have a single-use inhaler. This is after all a product for emergency use.
Second of all, you can go with a refillable device. Air passes through a regulator. It works for SCUBA. This is heavier of course, with greater up-front cost, but it saves you money if you use the device frequently. Refills are just jars of dry powder or a liquid, along with air from a compressor.
To be the same, imagine that your house ownership expires. You might get notice that this is about to happen, but the notice looks like junk mail and might not even arrive. Fake notices are sent all the time by scammers wanting to fool you into paying the wrong person. If you are on vacation or otherwise miss the legit notice, you might not pay in time. Your house is then quietly reposessed by the local authorities. Some jerk at the courthouse buys the house instantly. (he always does this) You find yourself homeless. The jerk offers to sell you back your house for a ridiculous markup. His whole reason for buying the house was the hope that you would be desperate enough to pay him well. He has no other use for your house. He has no realistic hope that anybody else would want your custom house, and you need it because it's where everybody thinks you live.
You can't kill all the different people and you sure can't force them all to be like you without some reciprocity.
This is a weakness of democracy. Suppose that China decided to repopulate Somalia with Chinese people. They could do it, and nobody would stop them. The USA isn't about to go nuclear with such a major trade partner over some resource-free pirates. China could keep things mostly quiet, claiming to help while limiting information, or just boldly use their UN security council veto power. China can probably even convince the US government to help keep things quiet, since denial is the easiest way for the US government to avoid pressure toward a US-China war. Once the true facts leak out, it's too late.
In fact, hating people for being different has only been considered bad very recently in history. Just a couple of generations ago, it was just a given, and it was a given to virtually every culture on the planet.
It's still a given in any culture with a hope of long-term survival. Without this, a culture lacks the cohesion required to prevent being overrun by others. (other things are required too of course, like a decent birth rate and the ability to defend land)
You OK with outsiders moving in and bringing their own culture? Fine, kiss your own culture bye-bye. Soon enough **you** get to be the minority and maybe the newcomers don't have such welcoming views of your ways. With a bit of bad luck, you find yourself living in a Taliban-like world or worse.
I wouldn't worry about password crackers, because the encrypted passwords are not supposed to be available to an attacker. In case they are available to him, he surely already has root. He can just trojan the authentication process at that point.
Trying passwords over the network is relatively slow, noticable to clueless admins because it fills the network connection, and likely to cause an account lockout. Just don't use shit like "password" or "1234" and you should be OK.
The big concern should be to minimize the number of places NOT on the system where your password can be associated with you. Sharing passwords across different systems means that even a/dev/random password can fail you. Picking a password related to your life is another fail.
Suppose I picked a dictionary word like "telephone". It's not related to me and it's not a popular password. Just how is an attacker to brute force that without causing an account lockout? Let's suppose he gets 3 tries every day. Really, it's not going to happen.
I think "subsidizing" is intended to mean stuff like the child tax credit and the property taxes going toward schools. The homosexual, like every other person, incurs this debt as a child and pays it off by being a taxpayer.
Naked people are just fine, as long as they are all-natural and non-perverted. No fake tits, weird piercings, or fucked up eyebrows allowed. Use correct hole. Limited educational exceptions may apply.
Guns are fine. Brain splatter is fine.
Anything that presents drug use (including alcohol and tobacco) or gambling in a non-negative light is inappropriate.
Intelligent design is inappropriate, except when being ridiculed.
Games are inappropriate, except for tetris and chess.
Terrible grammar is inappropriate. (want business grade, not perfection)
Endorsement of irresponsible behavior is inappropriate.
Think across generations. You were a child, and those children will be adults. For each child there is an adult in the future, and for each adult there was a child in the past.
You're subsidizing yourself really. As a child, you essentially took out a loan. You were given special help, and as a result you owe a debt. It's understandable that you wouldn't enjoy paying back your debt to society, but that's selfish. As others paid for you, so must you pay for others.
I pick a respected author, perhaps academic, who writes about similar things as me. I publish my crap whitepaper claiming to be him. It's likely that no human will notice the deception. Depending on my goals, the human-readable text of the whitepaper will claim the author to be him or me.
HR expects a Bachelor's degree even for the office help, admin assistant, secretary, etc. It's the new high school diploma, since high school diplomas have been rendered useless by local control and selfishness. (a town has an incentive to pass every student in the local school system)
Selecting the best would be elitist, and we can't have that.
Granting green cards to every English-speaking non-muslim would be seen as unconstitutional or something, even if it would be practical and go over rather well.
We simply can't pick and choose without being politically incorrect, and thus the lottery.
Dig a hole in the White House lawn, maybe in the helipad area. Get the White House press corps out there. Drag out the body, dressed in a pink bikini, and kick it into the hole. Obama sprinkles bacon bits, followed by a bag of genuine First Dog shit. Wait a week before adding the dirt on top.
The FAA designs requirements that have to be met. All aircraft must meet the requirements, but there is little incentive to go beyond.
I suppose you could argue that "campaign contributions" (bribes) allow industry to supply the designs. Aside from that though, the FAA does more-or-less design aircraft and data recorders. It's indirect, via the mandated requirements that must be met.
The FAA does not demand data recorder redundancy. They do demand various durability features. They get what they demand, seldom more and never less.
an acceleration of 3400 g (33 km/s) for 6.5 milliseconds. This is roughly equivalent to an impact velocity of 270 knots (310 mph) and a deceleration or crushing distance of 450 cm. Additionally, there are requirements for penetration resistance, static crush, high and low temperature fires, deep sea pressure, sea water immersion, and fluid immersion. [...] big enough to show up on sonar and have an acoustic and visual beacon for 30 days.
This is why the system is so bulky/heavy/expensive that it wasn't practical to embed one in every major aircraft component. The vertical tail piece was found days after the crash, floating on the ocean, but didn't contain any data. FAIL. We've now found the a main landing gear part, big enough to hold data in the support tube and very likely to be separated from any fire, but again it doesn't contain anything.
If the FAA was designing Google's datacenter, they'd use one supercomputer. They'd load it up with expensive components in a futile attempt to prevent it from ever failing. They'd have just one data center, under a concrete dome designed to stop an M-9 earthquake.
BTW, deep sea pressure is no big deal for a silicon chip. As long as the surrounding stuff doesn't cause bending that leads to a crack, silicon will laugh at the Marinaras trench. It's crystal, similar to diamond.
I generally like the idea of charging a percentage of post-graduation income, but it would encourage discrimination against women who prefer to get the MRS degree (marriage) and become full-time mothers. Universities would try to avoid recruiting such people and would make crazy rules to discourage it.
Highly intelligent full-time mothers are extremely important to society. Neither moronic nor part-time mothers are as likely to produce children who become useful to society.
A. They search you, being in a good mood, sorry for bothering you, and eager to go do something else.
B. They detain you while waiting for a search order to be rubber stamped by an uncaring judge, then search you while pissed off that you dared to challenge their authority.

still full of ridiculous rules like no sex outside of marriage
Lose that rule, and what exactly is the point of marriage? Really, that rule is kind of the whole point.

Engineering majors should get low interest rates. They very rarely have non-payment issues, for both financial and cultural reasons.
Most majors should pay moderate interest rates.
Liberal arts majors of various types should have to use credit cards. Nonpayment is pretty normal for such folks.

Your desktop background was a browser.
You had a side panel with "channels".
Web sites were supposed to continuously push feed to you, just like TV.

B. They detain you while waiting for a search order to be rubber stamped by an uncaring judge, then search you while pissed off that you dared to challenge their authority.
Your choice.
