It would be incredibly hard for one person, or even two people, to gain access long enough to actually modify a weapon enough for it to be exploded with a nuclear yield.
You can't just waltz in with a bag of tools and start dismantling one of them. Access lists, cameras, armed guards, background checks, etc.
On another note, the USA does not want other nations to have the nuclear capability because...
...pretty much everyone signed the NPT. Including N. Korea and Iran. There are provisions for a country to back out of it, but N. Korea is the only country to ever do so.
No country has the ability to defend against a nuclear attack. Not just the USA is in that position.
How are they controlled?? It takes an order from the president to launch an attack, but how is that order communicated?
Your scenario has little merit. It literally takes 2 people to do it. In subs and silos, 2 people must perform an action simultaneously. Turn keys, for instance. Seperated by a dozen feet or so. 1 person physically can't do it. And that is only after getting the proper codes from the NCA(National Command Authority. President or Joint Chief, etc). In aircraft, it would take dozens of people. They're not flying around loaded anymore, so you'd have to get the weapons out of storage, load them, take off, etc. And then still have to get the proper arming codes from the NCA.
A rogue colonel can't do it, because he doesn't have the proper codes. It's far more than the president calling someone up and saying "Launch".
Secure it?? They will sell it. Or government will force them to release ie.
Sell what? Your prints? Or the reams of data they already have, like so and so has visited there 5 times in the last 3 years, and spent an average of $275 each visit. They already do that. No prints needed.
Or what about Boston and the thousands of cameras they put up? Then Chicago and the 3,000 cameras they put up?
70 miles a day, every day, for 7 years is ~180,000 miles. How many 'real world' cars have YOU had go to that mileage? I haven't had any. My high point was 160k with a 1990 Chevy minivan, although my current Ford truck is well on its way at 125k. And 70 miles a day, every day, is a LOT for most people. Yes, I know SoCal people do a lot of miles commuting daily. But most people don't. My current commute is 8 miles each way. 70 miles per week more like it. And when it's not 98 degrees, or snowing, I usually ride my bike. Unlimited mpg...:)
I'm not saying saving gas and emissions is a bad thing, or something not to be sought. Far from it. But if we're going to do these calsulations, we have to actually look at the numbers that pop out. All of them.
Iris recognition proves beyond reasonable doubt, that you are who you claim you are.
Iris scanning proves beyond a reasonable doubt that your eye matches information in a row in a database. The information in that row may or may not match you.
umm...that 'calculator' misses one HUGE data point. The extra purchase price of the hybrid.
A new hybrid is only cost effective after several hundred thousand miles over the cost of a similar conventional new car. Say buying a new Civic vs. a new Civic Hybrid.
Sometimes, never. Compare a $10k Kia with a $20K Honda Hybrid. Unless you keep the car forever...it never equals out.
Fundamentally different cases. MikeRoweSoft.com is not a typo of microsoft.com. A homonym, yes, but no way a typo. Mike Rowe was playing of the similar sounds.
How many people take their work laptop home every day? Company doesn't want you to leave it on the desk...too easy to get stolen. So they get taken home every day.
Company secrets leaking out through email? Hell. 80GB walking out, as per company rules, in my backpack every single day.
TFA is misleading. Not disposable, but instead reusable.
Take your video, return the camera to CVS, and they burn it onto a DVD for you. Erase the card, and sell(rent) it to you (or someone else) again. Just like the 'one use' still cameras.
This WILL be hacked to allow home retrieval of the video. Wonder what the resolution is?
1. Limited storage space 2. small, inquisitive fingers
Solution: A couple of 128 CD cases, on a shelf. Cheap, fast access, more secure than a hard drive, portable. Not as geeky as a mythtv solution, but sometimes simple is best.
DVDShrink + DVDDecrypter (get it NOW) can preserve as much or as little of the original as you want. Netflix + DVDShrink is addictive.
Leaving your front door unlocked, while stupid, does not give anyone the right to walk in, rummage around, and leave a note reminding you to lock the door next time.
If the aircraft is designed for it, no problem. Quite a lot of places are pretty old, and were built before all these newfangled gadgets came into use.
Do you know that your RF emissions aren't interacting with the fuel flow signal that goes through the cable right next to your seat? I don't, and I'd rather not find out the hard way.
Already is pushed back. Read the footnotes. It says Dec 31, 2006, but the footnote says: "14. Mainstream support will end 2 years after the next version of this product is launched. Extended support will end 5 years after Mainstream support ends."
If Longhorn releases tomorrow, mainstream XP support is good until June 2007. Extended support (security hotfixes) until June 2012.

yeah. This is just a leetle bit harder than two guys deciding to rob a bank.

Perhaps being 'used to it' isn't the best way to go about daily life?
Poached or broiled?
Nice idea, but blinks are involuntary. How to know whether it's just a blink, or whether to change focus?

The supply of such countries is limited and dwindling.
And over on the other side of the Oval office, behind the big desk, he is realizing that he only has a couple of years to go.
More difficult how? Slower? More hoops to jump through?

Megakudos for the hardware, but dayum!
The GP was talking about XP, not 2000Server. So the 'next' version would presumably be Longhorn, not Server2003.
Already is pushed back. Read the footnotes. It says Dec 31, 2006, but the footnote says:
"14. Mainstream support will end 2 years after the next version of this product is launched. Extended support will end 5 years after Mainstream support ends."
If Longhorn releases tomorrow, mainstream XP support is good until June 2007. Extended support (security hotfixes) until June 2012.
March 31, 2010. Security hotfixes will be available until at least then. Is there some other fix you need for W2000?
