You don't see the difference between writing a novel and writing that you are going to kill all your co-workers and how you're going to do it in explicit detail? Not that you hate them and would like them dead but that you are going to come in next week with an AK-47 and shoot them all.
I think if he was just talking in generalities then it's not illegal. If you start talking about actions against specific individuals in specific locations it gets to be over the line. I suspect that what he had written freaked the jury out. I believe that they started thinking the city would be safer if this creep was behind bars. Understandable but if it was only a fantasy then he should never have been tried.
Right. Planning involves more than daydreaming. But writing it down can be considered a part of planning. I think the prosecutors didn't take the right tack with this case.
Biblically the devil is not in Hell yet. He has been cast out of heaven but will not be imprisoned in hell until after the Second Coming of Christ. I know in popular culture they like to speak of him ruling in Hell and tormenting the lost souls but that doesn't follow the scripture.
I've got a cheap shitty pc, the raspberry pi isn't really a pc, it's a computer. I can't put the fucking 30 pound pc in a tiny little case and stick it up on a pole outside my house with a small battery and solar panel. I don't know if you're really an idiot or just trolling but seriously don't you think computers are good for anything other than watching pr0n?
I can tell you now that I've got a pistol I've fired hundreds of rounds through and for me to use it for self defense would be an act of pure desperation. In a controlled environment with no pressure it's difficult to hit anything over 25 feet away with consistency. The slightest twitch means a miss of several feet. For home defense a shotgun is vastly superior. I seldom carry a pistol but when I do I know that it's for close in work under a dozen feet. Any would be car jacker would be toast though.
You know, the NRA has 3 million mouthpieces that paid for the privilege of being mouthpieces. Then they have millions and millions more that don't pay money but still speak up. I don't know how anyone thinks you'll ban guns in the US when a huge chunk of the people equate gun ownership with freedom. If the President got his wish tomorrow and declared all guns in the US illegal it'd be hell getting all of them away from their owners. Actually it would be impossible without draconian action. The Police would have to kill thousands of people and lock up tens of thousands. You have no idea.
Prosecutors that attack corruption. A very valuable commodity. Sadly in the Federal government corruption is glossed over and ignored or even rewarded. I congratulate New York for their stance against corruption.
I'm amazed at the absolute ignorance of the possibilities that abound with a 5 dollar computer board. The only limit is your creativity. Sure it's only a starting point but it's cheap and you only need to buy the stuff that your project requires. If you need all the crap that's on the 35 dollar pi then hell, buy that one. This a tool for teaching how to use computers for building things, not how to use excel and powerpoint.
alternet? That's your citation? I'm not gonna say it didn't happen but you still haven't provided a citation. Alternet is little more than a comic book.
Most of the people I know with the 6s and 6s plus already have cases with an extra battery included. It makes it much thicker than the device itself but then people really seem more interested in survivability and battery life than thinness.
It's not useless as is. If you have one specific task for the Pi then you wont need a lot of that stuff. Why pay for ethernet if you wont be using it? Sure this isn't for everyone but I can see things it would be usefull for and I know at 5 bucks a pop it'll wind up doing a lot of things.
I didn't really mean it to be insightful. It was spiteful and mean on purpose to show my disdain and disgust at the incestuous asshole's post. Not the one I replied to but the one he replied to. I am not really sorry if you were offended. Your sensitivities were simply collateral damage though. And I have some Karma to burn.

Actually planning a crime is a criminal action. It's called "conspiracy to commit" and people get put in jail for it.
Well hell, if they mention the devil I figure they must believe a little bit.
Well....I figure that whether you believe the Bible or not, the whole tale of the Devil originates from it so I'm just going back to the source.
I think you are entitled to your opinion. Of course, we are entitled to ignore it.

Maybe Cuomo is next.

It's a violent country. Inner city ghettos are war zones where cops fear to tread.

Soldiers committing violence. I can't imagine such a thing.
I'm okay with losing the 3.5 port but not with a thinner phone. It's too damn thin now. I have to have a case just to have something to hold.
Longer battery life
Survivability
A microSD card slot
A really great screen.
The 6S is already too thin.

Go ahead, tell the kids to get off your lawn.

You've obviously never been to Mississippi.
Like Tesla?
