If people are not allowed to run around with guns in their pockets, then the plastic guns are already illegal. If people are allowed to possess guns, then they can have a plastic one if they want it. It's just another gun. It still has to shoot metal bullets so claiming it can't be detected is an outright lie. I would imagine that sooner or later the person firing the plastic gun will be killed when it misfires and explodes in their hand. That is why I wouldn't bother printing guns and why I don't fear them. They are a greater danger to the user than anyone else.
The phone companies should be broken up, again, and the parts sold off to Asian operators that know how to deliver the best service at the lowest price. Even if our telecom's could do that, they wouldn/t. That is why they should simply be liquidated.
The videos are about people playing a game, not the game itself. That is a transformational use and thus a fair use. Nintendo is stealing from their own customers, plain and simple.
For all the help auto complete is, I'd be quite happy to lose it entirely. On the other hand, auto complete should be different on each user's machine because the users past searches influence the results shown. Also, other users may want to see the results this user complains of. In a world with so many people having the same name, trying to control your name bumps up against the rights of everyone else that has the same name. People have to accept that auto complete is not an information source in itself. To suggest it is result's in silliness like this.
Guns and explosives are easy to get thanks to America's right to bear arms. The representative would have 3d printer regulation before gun regulation? That makes absolutely no sense at all. Since 3d printers can be made by hobbyists at home, effective regulation is impossible. Not to mention that firing a 3d printed gun as a proof of concept and having an effective weapon are two very different things. A car is a far more dangerous weapon than a 3D printer. Are you afraid to drive?
Passengers now know they have to save themselves from terrorists in the air. It has been shown repeatedly that anyone threatening the safety of a flight is quickly brought under control by the passengers themselves. This keeps planes safer than any amount of screening will ever do.
Insist this senior doesn't have time to do the coding himself, let you handle all of it. Insist it will be more efficient if you code the changes, that should sway him.
One time I put balsa wood spars at the bottom of a dry cleaner bag, lit a couple of birthday candles in the center and held it over the BBQ to fill with hot air. It floated up and slowly glided along like a flickering glowing ball. I caused a huge traffic jam as the whole west end of the city got out of their cars to watch the UFO. When the candles burnt out it just disappeared. Many people saw it zooming off into space, which I sincerely doubt.
Owning a car in Belgium means Belgians have the ability to speed on the roads, therefore the only sensible course is for all Belgians to pay a fine for the speeding they otherwise would have gotten away with. Children! They can grow up into criminals, so new parents should have to pay for possible future crimes by their children. Pets! Laundry! Toilet paper! Where will it end?
Camera's do not prevent crime. More camera's would not have stopped the Boston bombers. Imagine the bomb squad running over and dousing every bag and package that is set down along the route! Using camera's to drive crime out of one area and into another does not solve anything. Drug addiction, illiteracy, poverty and alienation are the forces that drive most crime. Those are the problems we should be addressing. If we want to reduce crime we have to alleviate need.
You delete the spam but the ISP records the who where. Then someone in your organization does something illegal and you are among a pool of suspects. They must investigate you to clear you. They immediately find you have an association with a Russian criminal gang. Suddenly you are Prime Suspect! That's what's wrong with it.
Stupider things have happened, to me!
What is the point of putting a creative commons license on data that is not copyrightable. Anyone can take the data and do anything they want with it and there is nothing anyone can do about it. If it were otherwise, no one would be able to broadcast the temperature without permission from the weather office. How well would that system work?
Business no longer needs Windows to interoperate, there are countless ways to exchange information today besides an excel spreadsheet or Word document. The iPhone, iPad and Android all contributed to making the Windows desktop and Office applications unnecessary. Microsoft's market has evaporated.
Next will be political web sites. What government wouldn't exercise the power to remove a critical opposition web site from the internet just before an election?

The electric chair has been in use for decades.
The rest of us will be stuck with insecure backdoor platforms that criminals can easily exploit.
No machine can print bullets, yet.
They must be thoroughly corrupt.

It makes gullible adults so much easier to spot.

The patent system doesn't need work. It needs to be out of work!

Why play with Microsoft when you can play with your friends instead!

That's why I'm gay.

The networks don't know how to share.
