It's not the World Trade Center, and it's not Bali. It's a single cafe and a maximum possible body count than your typical school shooting in the US (which can hardly hold the news media's attention for more than a week any more).
This news wouldn't have made it out of Australia (if even NSW) if it weren't for the Islamic bogeyman angle.
What does any of that have to do with the story here? The tracking device wasn't added by the police or even at the behest of the police, but by the buy-here-pay-here dealer, operating a business of the same respectability as payday lending and rent-to-own stores, who expect their customers to default. This wasn't done for cops but for repo men.
By all means complain about a violation of privacy, but it isn't by the state. Rather this is the result of a financial system that promotes, aggravates, and profits off of poverty.
This post is factual, poignant, germane to the topic at hand... and yet, in this crowd, this post can legitimately, literally be modded as "flamebait."
I think they would be very happy if the rest of Europe were utilizing GLONASS, a system they can shut down or manipulate if they need to.
But they themselves can't get it to work, as was highlighted in the link I posted. So why would a Europe unable to deploy Galileo use GLONASS instead of GPS?
And it certainly isn't like Europe doesn't have its own space launch capabilities.
Russia has absolutely nothing to gain and much to lose by trying to fuck with this launch.
The Russian GLONASS has its own problems, and the whole point of Galileo is a GNSS that is independent from the US. Do you think the Russians like falling back on US technology? Or do you think they're planning to rely on Beidou?
Yes, I enjoyed Babylon 5, but then stuff like Crusade, the Ranger movie, and that "Lost Tales" compilation happened. I'll probably put this new movie in my Netflix queue, but I won't be running out to buy a theater ticket or anything.
I'm asking more about what happens to DRM'd content that was purchased from Sony's ebook store now that Sony is pulling out (e.g. authorization servers).
Hamas can't even power their social media campaign (i.e. their lifeblood) continuously, but we're supposed to believe they can coordinate rocket fire over the same internet while also deploying Aperture science into their tunnels?
Markets in poor neighborhoods carry what 'poor' people buy
They buy what gives them the most calories per dollar, while also focusing on foods that require the least preparation time (since their work typically leaves them with little time to spare). End result: saturated fat, refined sugar and sodium, with very little in the way of necessary vitamins and minerals.
Poverty is now owning... a car out of warranty!
For most of the United States, owning a car is a necessity for both working and buying food.
If it really was difficult to find programmers they'd have at least considered training some of those workers in the desired skills, workers with a known history rather than some stranger off the street (or from across an ocean).
While that is still part of the organization's core function, today less than half of the NRA's revenues come from program fees and membership dues.
The bulk of the group's money now comes in the form of contributions, grants, royalty income, and advertising, much of it originating from gun industry sources.
But around 2005, the group began systematically reaching out to its richest members for bigger checks through its "Ring of Freedom" program, which also sought to corral corporate donors. Between then and 2011, the Violence Policy Center estimates that the firearms industry donated as much as $38.9 million to the NRA's coffers. The givers include 22 different gun makers, including famous names like Smith & Wesson, Beretta USA, SIGARMS, and Sturm, Ruger & Co. that also manufacture so-called assault weapons.
Some of that funding has given the NRA a direct stake in gun and ammo sales.
One of the NRA's 27 websites calls such donors "corporate partners," while another says the association is "not affiliated with any firearm or ammunition manufacturers or with any business that deals in guns and ammunition."
I'll grant that a plurality of the NRA's funding seems to come from dues, but the majority of its money comes from those with a direct or indirect financial interest in the sale of weapons and ammunition, as inconvenient that is to the NRA's projected public image.
I think the poorly-written sentence (on Slashdot?) is trying to say that US and UK media generally isn't trying to pin the blame on one party or another (yet).

So what's the over/under of this planet being inhabited entirely by Nazis or Prohibition gangsters?
Now is probably not a good time to continue to use a medium developed by Sony for storing critical information.

Well, someone played a Sony music CD on the web server, and...
A plastic battleship would be unstoppable.
Four red pegs should do it.

known for its superb conductivity of heat
Exactly: pinpoint heat sources will see that energy rapidly disbursed throughout the entire suit rather than stay concentrated in a hot spot.
Water's heat conductivity, its ability to spread heat out into meaninglessness, is one of the reasons why it's effective at extinguishing fires.

At least he seems able to keep bird crap off his face, unlike some other wizards.
Are the accounts "linked?"

DRM?
Not even a week ago: Gaza's Only Power Plant Knocked Offline
Hamas can't even power their social media campaign (i.e. their lifeblood) continuously, but we're supposed to believe they can coordinate rocket fire over the same internet while also deploying Aperture science into their tunnels?
And this from an unnamed IDF contractor talking to a media outlet that has quite literally called for the genocide of Palestinians?
Good job, guys.
Ed, man!
Then you have little to lose by giving it a try.
Visit central America then get back to us.
Work at McDonald's or Walmart (or more likely both) for a living and get back to us.

When wages go down as prices don't, that's actual hardship. It's called "cost of living" rather than "cost of luxury" for a reason.
The largest source of income for the NRA is membership dues
