    As it has always been.

    I am too old to worry about it now. So long as Android is the most popular mobile platform, which it is, I say we are pretty safe.

    2. I do not care if it is popular or not. As it turns out those android is a lot more popular than iOS.

    Actually 9mm is used for hunting small game. I have friends who use them for coyote control as well.

    9mm parabellum as the name states was designed for war, but so were lots of things.

    Practice killing animals is one or actually killing animals. Hunting is legal.

    Actually just putting holes in paper is fun too. I have some guns that only get used for that. 50 feet is way to close though, think 400 yards.

    So merely suspecting is enough?

    I am sorry I can no longer respond to your comments nedlohs I suspect you are some sort of drug kingpin.

    To me it sounds like he should have told anyone that story, and should never have talked to the police at all.

    This is why all I know is my name, address, that no you cannot search my car/house/anus and that I need a lawyer when speaking to any LEO. Never answer any questions, all of them are trying to get something. The common traffic stop question "Do you know why I pulled you over?" is a classic fishing expedition example.

    This is because lots of people are short sighted and stupid.

    There is nothing we can do about that. It has always been that way and likely always will.

    Maybe one day we can have another BBS/early internet that excludes these folks. Maybe one day september will end.

    No, I am saying it is totally true.

    The unless part means you assume something that is not the case. Meaning you are twisting the truth using that.

    Tepples, I think you mean they believe this.

    Wireless network monitoring tools are primary useful to those who deploy, secure and integrate wireless networks. It is very handy to be able to see at a customers site that his wireless speeds suffer because all this neighbors are on the same channel.

    I take it you have never shot a gun or a paintball marker.

    Paintball markers do not usefully simulate hunting firearms nor ranges, it really is that simple.

    Nor is shooting such an inaccurate device much fun.

    They don't?
    Please show me were I can upload applications for free to the Apple store and without restrictions.

    My application is a wireless network monitoring tool, which my understanding is that they are totally banned.

    Apple is very successful at turning computers into something their owners do not control.

    What exactly is wrong with practicing to or actually killing animals?

    Are you a vegan? Even if you are you likely benefit from the deaths of animals. Egg laying chickens are killed once their useful lives are over, sugar is whitened with bonechar, and animal products are used in innumerable commercial products.

    Why is it his problem to find out where the $800k came from? Sounds like work for police and IRS agents, not a car audio installer.

    The people I know that do drugs have jobs and money. Drugs aren't cheap. I bet the majority of drug use is of that type. Friday-Sunday and at parties.

    I have seen crackheads and meth addicts, but these seem like more the outlier than the occasional toker or party coke user.
