Or you could read it in the reasonable, non-inflammatory way, which is to say that most of the people who commit these mass shootings do not have previous criminal records for violent acts and therefore applying the logic that "they're criminals, they'll ignore the law anyway" is disingenuous at best.
but I resent the fact that people who know nothing about the safe handling of firearms and who have obviously never been to a shooting range can tell those of us who do and have, our own business.
But isn't that part of the problem, that people with no understanding of the safe handling of firearms, with no training or respect for the damage they're capable of doing can walk in off the street and buy them?
Good luck finding a politician willing to commit career suicide by dissolving the TSA.
Even in the extremely unlikely event that it's seen as a popular move with the electorate as a whole, do you really think all the campaign contributors with financial interests in the TSA supply chain would let them get re-elected?
Honestly? I would never have even thought to try that; in what UI Convention Universe does that make sense?
The only way I managed to work out how to close metro apps was to press the Windows key, switch to another app, move my mouse to the top left of the screen, then down a bit to show all running metro apps, then right click on the app I wanted to close and select Close.
It's not the browsers so much as the wireless/cellular data that's a battery hog and it's Adobe that don't support Flash on 4.x rather than anyone else.
If you already have a game on Steam and buy a pack of games that include it, it just ignores that game. You only get a "bonus" giftable copy in specific circumstances where it's being offered by the publisher as part of a (usually pre-order) deal.

Because you have to do at least 3 reboot cycles post-SP1 to get all the updates, more if you want all the.NET frameworks and their associated patches, all a WSUS server really does in this context is make the download part of the process much faster and means you don't have to worry about which patches you're installing.
This seems like an unrealistic expectation once you remember that nobody bothers bug fixing and optimizing before release any more when they can just ship a patch a some point afterwards
Ultimately, once the maximum bitcoins have been generated, you're pretty much guaranteed a deflationary spiral with no real way to restart the economy as you can't introduce any more money into the system.
Sure, you might think that once you reach that point people will start selling their hoarded BTC to cash in, but that doesn't really help because most people involved aren't going to be dumb enough to buy something that can only really go down in value.

You obviously never read The Grauniad.

Yes, that's entirely down to the metric system. Do you read what you type?

Because Keir Starmer doesn't have that power. The best he can do is change the prosecuting guidelines for the CPS.
It's an empty text field on the census, to avoid the toss-up between "You didn't list my religion" and "Please turn to page 9,126 for question two".

I can hear them sobbing from here.

The BBC is not state-run, it is a publicly (not government) funded independent body.

Apart from "Link your tablet to MS Live account" that's mostly bollocks.

Yes, it's offensive and no, it's not particularly funny, but the police are starting to take the piss a little now with these charges.
Saying things that people don't like should not be a crime with the exception of those that are explicitly inciting others to commit crimes.
