The entire thing is a scam and they are quite upfront with it.
I the charitable 1st worlder give free money to some bank in the 3rd world who supposedly gives a loan to a needy person.
This means I make no profit and a bank gets to charge interest to another person. Why the hell would I ever do that?
If it is my capital I want at least half the interest or just give the guy the money, either way at least some banker is not getting rich for free off my money.
Trusting that the person you are buying from or selling to is not a cop or is actually going to provide what they claim seems insane. If you are a buying you have to give a place to send the drugs and a seller has to get those drugs to that place. Either option seems fraught with chances to get caught.
This violates every idea about never getting caught; everyone you don't know is a cop, all phones are tapped, etc.
So then make sure they will hit targets. You can save money by only making every Nth have a warhead instead of a brick. So long as the mass is the same the interceptor system cannot tell them apart.
Not working out to well? That fission seems to be powering my computer just fine. What part of it is not working out?
If you want to say there have been problems, that is true, but for the most part it works out. Coal mining kills far more. Not to even mention the toxic pools the coal plants have to store their waste. That stuff stays toxic forever by the way.
Better yet, agree to the sale. Then once they get you one the phone with the person who takes your credit card info, hang up. This will result in a cost to the call center and the agent who called you will get reprimanded for the failed conversion.
I don't think it is shady. Just a waste of money that could be profit.
I think it is just like everything else branded in games. Smart publishers should be charging the gun makers for the advertising. "You want the bushmaster name in our game you pay us, otherwise we will just go talk to all your competitors".

Boxes of any real mass must be sent from a post office, these days. That means you will be on camera dropping off that box.

Do you ever feel bad about being so wasteful or do you think marketing a blender worth the destruction of so much actually useful stuff?
I meant that if you changed the mass too much it might alter the flight path in a telling way.
Or they launch six each from many small vessels and land based launchers. Launch the expensive ones mixed in with the cheap stuff.
I think the idea here would be to have many archers.
Not like disguising fighting vessels as merchants or fishing vessels is anything new.

No this costs the taxpayer $400.
If these companies were paying for it your idea would be brilliant.
Why not point it out the door and rotate the chopper?
So make one and prove it.
You can even weld the thing shut and make all those who lease it sign an NDA. Use trade secret to hide your invention.
Or here is a more likely scenario, it does not work and you are totally full of shit.

How is a nexus phone locked down?
I have a Debian chroot is that not enough?
Why as a last resort for only the egregious cases?
Any case they should prosecute as fiercely as possible.
Someone is connecting these calls right?
Someone is paying a bill to make them, seems like you could figure that out.
The fact that POTS lets you fake a number is a big problem with it. The fact that the endpoints have no knowledge is another.
That is why businesses get my google voice number.
I think the best case would be to get rid of POTS.
The fact that the end point does not know who is actually calling is a major flaw.
Better yet, agree to the sale.
Then once they get you one the phone with the person who takes your credit card info, hang up. This will result in a cost to the call center and the agent who called you will get reprimanded for the failed conversion.
That does sound better.
Either way no reason to ever pay them.
1. take a deep breath
2. No one is saying anything like that
3. You do realize you sound exactly as crazy as your opponents you are mocking right?
I love that kind of game. We played it on line in college and it was great.
Games these days are just to easy. Damn kids!
No, I am simply point out that it is math.
Go to your local university and ask the CS dept.
I messed that up somehow, sorry.
Sorry I have not played it for many years.
To me 1.6 was the last CS. I am not interested in any of this swat shield nonsense.
