I never said the 5th was limited to Citizens. I have always held the believe that the Bill of Rights was an enumeration of BASIC HUMAN RIGHTS that every living person on this planet has.
A statement that includes one example of a supported condition cannot be taken to exclude all others.
There is no lack of definition:
"No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation."
It's right there. It's a crime against the constitution for the government to kill a US Citizen, on US Soil, without due process.
This is almost as absurd as the rumor that floated around yesterday that Obama held a candlelight vigil at the White House in honor of Hugo Chavez. A lot of people ate it up and went into orbit... then it was revealed to be a hoax... except some people apparently showed up at the White House, candles in hand, and had a vigil for him anyway out on the street and put pictures of it on various social media.
This is a huge deal to the astrophotog community. This new sensor will greatly reduce exposure times and required mirror sizes for doing decent astrophotography.
I dunno, I might expect a camera that took pictures in discrete pieces called "pixels" to take pictures that were "pixely," since those pictures would inevitably be constructed out of those "pixels."
But, one big complaint I have is that my house looks really "bricky." I'll have to get someone on that right away.
"USA is leading the currency war (able to do it so far, since USD is 'reserve', but everything is transitory), and the objective of a currency war is to inflict damage upon yourself. Destroying your own currency means literally destroying its purchasing power, destroying savings, destroying investment."
Their logic is that, if you disincentivize saving and the acquisition of real property by reducing interest rates to near zero, people will go out and spend their money, or invest it in the stock market, both of which "stimulate" the economy.
Of course, it has been proven time and time again that this doesn't work, and only leads to a Weimar Republic situation where the money becomes worthless. But, that doesn't stop the boneheads in Washington DC chasing those short-term gains that come from printing money and giving it to voters.
The US really is doomed. I give it, at most, 50-100 more years before it completely collapses. I just hope I'm gone by then.
The first time someone sits and the chair collapses underneath them, the resulting injury and negligence claims will bankrupt the company that is doing this stupid shit.
Because, now that the government derives an income stream that is inversely proportional to how healthy people are, people will become more healthy to avoid the tax.
So, the government will start having to tax healthy activities to make up for the loss of income.
This is no different than road tax based on mileage because cars are getting more efficient.
The government is going to get the money it wants, one way or another, because the American People are collectively too chicken shit to get its own government under control.
Photons have momentum, and momentum is conserved. If you had a coherent enough laser, you just beam the thing when it's still far enough out and the momentum transferred from the photons to the asteroid will change its velocity.
The rising average crustal temperature decreases the viscosity of the underlying magma, allowing plates to move more easily on top.
Perfectly sound reasoning that is as good as proof that global warming is causing increased tectonic activity. The debate was over long ago, didn't ya know?
Or, the ARM chip is capturing a frame from time to time and sending it to Apple for analysis, so they know what you watch and when you watch it, and can sell that information to marketers.
You can bet that if there's a cable between two apple products, there is all kinds of information being exchanged that you don't know about - and if one of those devices has a network connection, that information is ending up in Cupertino.
It's like having a 300HP engine in your fancy new sportscar, but all it does is turn an electric generator that delivers 50HP to the electric drive motor.
But I'm already paying $75 for 24/2. I'd hate to think what gigabit with any usable amount of upstream would cost here - which is why I don't actually want it, and wouldn't buy it i they had it. It'd cost $1000/month.
Global warming theoretically might cause increased competition for resources. Increased competition for resources sometimes leads to armed conflict. Armed conflict over resources sometimes results in the US getting involved militarily. The US sometimes uses drones when it is so involved.
Therefore, it is reasonable to conclude that global warming definitely causes drone strikes.
Slashdot Mirror
That must be some wicked-fast in-flight Internet connection they have...
I use about 160GB/month, and my ISP considers me an abuser.
I had an internet-enabled cell phone in 2001 when I hiked it, and I would routinely post my whereabouts so others would know I was okay.
But, yeah.. posting to slashdot on a through-hike is just.. wrong. :)
It's a pretty awesome experience.
If I say "I like blue trucks," it does not logically follow that "I don't like red trucks."
What effect, if any, does constantly being bombarded by ionizing radiation while in space transit have on sterilization?

Kinda the odd, self-fulfilling hoax I guess.

Change it enough, and it'll miss Earth.
The right size is 7.8", and Tim Cook ought to have known that.

Yet, they sell it to you as a 300HP sports car.
What do I do now?
Government should not be competing with private enterprise.
Now, not only will FireFox slowly eat up gigabytes of RAM, but it'll also silently and slowly fill your entire hard disk!
I was wondering when the leaking-storage feature would mutate from RAM to disk.
