You are simply avoiding the issue. Last I heard, the US had FIVE TIMES more murders per capita than the UK. If you think guns have nothing to do with this, your head is so far into the sand that it's seeping into your brain.
I thank my lucky stars that I live in a country where citizens cannot (legally) buy handguns, much less automatic weapons.
The poeple who steal cars usually steal lots of cars. And the people who stole these cars undoubtedly would have stolen another car if the bait car wasn't there.
Bullshit. This is not 'Gone In 60 Seconds', this is real life, and a large proportion of crime is opportunistic.
This may not be entrapment, but it is dangling a carrot in front of desparate people and bored kids.
Oh sorry, I forgot -- criminals are all inhuman montsters, bent on incinerating your home and slaughtering your grandma. God forbid we think of them as frail human beings, like the rest of us.
Think of how much more stable the motherboards would be if there were less chips present and less IRQs being shared.
"Duhhhh. PCChips use onboard stuff, and they're cheap, so it must be bad."
Yeah, gee, putting the chips on different boards is going to help. We'll use the same architecture, but with longer traces, and copper contacts instead of solder joints. That figures.
There's also Quorn [quorn.com], which according to NPR is a popular european meat-substitute

Sounded interesting, and apparently it tastes pretty good
Don't believe everything you read. It tastest of very little, and the texture is spongy -- not very appetising. You'd certainly never mistake it for meat.
"How did it cope with 18,000 simultaneous connections?"
Let me get this right. You reckon we should keep writing network daemons in C -- the footshooter's favourite -- so that they are efficient enough to scale for the <0.001% of sites that have enough bandwidth to support 18,000 connections.

Just in case it gets /.ed
Score: 5

(this is how it works)

Yeah, that sounds like a sensible tradeoff.
