I wouldn't say that, it's more like the legal jargon is so convoluted you need a degree in law to understand it, and then everything it contains is so broad in scope it might as well be listed in with your horoscope.
We have guns, they have professional killers, look back through history at each time the professional killers, or military was set against the populace. Change was brought about regardless the outcome. Also, last time I checked I could go to a local hobby shop and build my own drone, granted I'd need line of sight to it, but it is still very capable of delivering a payload.
I can't help wondering just how a piece of code, which presumably didn't test its input data for validity before acting on it, could become part of a modern jet's onboard software suite?"
Using a cellphone while driving in my state is illegal. Yet, daily people do it. Hell two days ago I had a driver I could see was texting came halfway into my lane, when she noticed she corrected then proceeded to go halfway into the lane on her other side. I sped up to get clear.
And if you happened to be sending or receiving a text and have an accident that ends up with someone dieing, what's that text that was sent or received worth?
I can't speak for outside the US, but most cars have a button in the glove box that when pushed open a locked trunk, if you smash a window to get in to grab something smashing the windows and pushing the button to open the trunk is not that much more difficult.
I get on my wife all the time for leaving things visible in her vehicle, to the point that I nearly yell at her for leaving a quarter visible. If they want it they will break a window, I'd hate to spend a hundred or so dollars to replace a window over a freakin quarter.
Personally I still can not see the reasoning behind someone paying $700 USD (apprx retail without contract for verizon 32 gig iPhone 4S). It's a freaking phone, these days you can purchase a decent desktop or laptop for that price that does far more, what it doesn't do that the iPhone does is fit in a pocket. What it does that the iPhone doesn't gaming, programming, video editing, audio editing, watching videos (yeah I know you can watch video on iPhone, but would you rather watch an hd movie on a 4 inch screen vs a monitor?).
Seriously, I only see people with more money than sense buying iPhones, this is not meant as a direct insult to those of you with an iPhone, but honestly why have one at that price. Note if you paid significantly less like only dropped 2 or 3 hundred USD for it, I could see that.
Why are you surprised? I mean we have been over this a few years back when FB was poised to take over social media from MySpace. Even then it was no secret that they kept your data indefinitely.
What steps or rather how difficult it was to get them to produce that information. I'd particularly be interested to know how they verified the person requesting the data was actually him.
In Azureus you can set a current download to seed queue, meaning I can download without it uploading back out.
If I wanted to get high tech about it, I could just tell my firewall to refuse any outgoing requests for the torrent port. Incoming would be untouched as it's already initiated.
Here's the study save the money. It's called self confidence. Or you could just listen and talk to people and not give a real toss. When younger I found I had better success with women when I didn't completely ignore them, but when in a social situation paid little attention to them. This always seemed to work, you want what you can't have. Something else I found is that by just outright walking up and starting a conversation works wonders, even the prettiest of girls. They actually tend to be easier to talk to and tend to talk more as they seem so unapproachable that few guys even dare try.
You young awkward nerds out there, try it, worst that will happen is she says get lost. What are you really out at that point? Did you ride your bike for the first time. Keep trying it works. No mystery no dark secret.
What kind of backing did you start with? Was it from your family? Did you qualify for small business loans? Did you get outside investors? Did you work and earn it yourself?
You can say it's whining if you want, but when you work 2 jobs just to be able to feed your family it makes it hard to "take that significant risk" of failure and start your own business using what little resources you have.
Have you ever had to choose between feeding your kids or paying rent?
If you answer no then you have absolutely no right whatsoever to say anyone is "whining and crying because somebody, somewhere, somewhen was successful". While I realize that someone that makes 200k per year pays more taxes than I do, the reality exists that a person making 200k a year vs someone making 50k a year, the person making 200k feels that tax less.
Ever gotten a raise and made less after the raise then you did prior because of a new tax bracket?
I think they are humiliated. I usually drive past them while they are holding a shovel on the side of the road. His shovel is the equivalent of his color coded badge he would have had in school. So I don't see why a badge is such an issue.
Say what you will but I doubt highly many college grads would shun the life offered them by the education they worked hard to get to operate a shovel.

Sounds very much like our current regime.
We have guns, they have professional killers, look back through history at each time the professional killers, or military was set against the populace.

Well that and who really cares about my penis enlargement correspondence?

You have such accounts.
What if you don't have accounts on social media like that?
Not everyone does you know.
Why not? I mean we all know the way to fix a broken system is to create more laws.

You're killing me Smalls.
This is why when I'm in an accident I subpoena phone records to prove fault was with the other driver.

I'd like to add less chance for being a target for some group looking for hostages. Civilian contractors usually make easy targets for those looking to take a hostage or two. With a technological background that may make you more attractive as both a hostage and possibly them being able to gather intelligence from interrogating you.

I thought you had to have a permit to film in public anyway, short of a home video of course.
While it appears NH doesn't require a permit to film, you do need to apply to film on state property. http://www.nh.gov/film/faq.htm
Looks like Bigfoot is in the wrong.
Coercion would be when you have to opt-out.
Well said. You know you can still find one nighters, or people interested in sex only relationships.
