I'm not understanding how anyone could consider this to qualify as "push[ing] the rules to their limits". The emails were never archived, which was required by law. PERIOD. If she'd used her personal email, but used Google backup or something* and dumped the archive to IT on her way out, that would be "push[ing] the rules".
You act as if the Geneva conventions are a black and white issue, but the people fighting our troops are not soldiers of any UN recognized state-- or recognized by any individual state, for that matter. Also, the rules apply to any signatory nation, even when in conflict with a non-signatory, but only if the latter agrees to accept and apply the conventions. I'd say hacking off the heads of nearly every civilian and POW that comes into their hands as an implicit non-acceptance, and definite non-application. Thus, it's difficult to apply all the rules. I also need to point out if they indeed are soldiers, then the act of putting them in Gitmo itself is, as a POW camp, perfectly legal. Alleged torture is, of course, not.
I'll have to side with Apple in this one just because I have little trust in a company that was given $249 million by the government, then stiffed the American people by going bankrupt and selling itself to China.
This is why the statistics on this article are bogus. The banks in Europe claim C&P is foolproof, so if your money is stolen it's "the user's fault", and it's not "fraud". Kind of like how our unemployment rate in the USA is so low because they decided that people who gave up looking for work don't count, and people who are working 20-30 hours a week do.
I don't even know where you're going with 'personal liberty.' The economic system has so little to do with what you're allowed to say, which god you're allowed to worship, or how you spend your free time as to be completely orthogonal.
We have three essential freedoms: life, liberty, and property. Taxes reduce our property, so their use must be as guarded as are the limits on the other two. You almost hit on it with your last example; indeed, if I choose to spend my free time in an activity that I can no longer afford due to high taxation, that's a clear negative impact due to the economic system.
They link to this chart, which actually contradicts what they say unless you use a bizarre interpretation of it that would indicate a 230 pound man would also have a.05% BAC after one drink.
If the elementary school system is biased against girls in the sciences, it's pretty ironic because near 100% of the teachers in those grades are female. By the way, why is no one concerned about the gender bias in elementary educators?
Were you 18? If my parents didn't stand up for me-- and mind you, they always did-- I would have pursued legal means. I know that's a daunting task for a teenager, but some lawyer somewhere would have enjoyed some pro bono publicity.
Change doesn't happen overnight, since in general established companies don't hire women fresh out of college as CEOs. The average age of a CEO is in the 50s. The policies of the 1980s and 1990s are producing today's CEOs.
If Kim Jong-Un starts a war with the only world superpower and their allies over unarmed, unmanned aircraft launched by civilian hobbyists, he'll get what he deserves.
Some of their speakers were surprisingly good. I had two bookshelf speakers that had PLASTIC boxes, and they sounded great. They were left behind by one of my dad's tenants. They even had low enough sensitivity to work with the Pro Audio Spectrum card on my 486, which couldn't have had more than 2W of power (sound cards often had amplified outputs on them in the 90s). TIE Fighter sounded killer on those...
That's why I liked my VIC. Only 3.5K available, but I used to be able to really cram programs that supposedly needed 5K by removing the REMs and using the command tokens (first letter, then second letter shifted).

They make you take off your EYEGLASSES and stumble around blindly?
I'm pretty sure I sketched that finale inside the back cover of my Trapper Keeper in the fourth grade.
I didn't know zombies went down if you pounded them in the nuts... even if they were female.
It worked; the economy is dead.
Windows 10 has windows that look like they're from Windows 1.0, with icons that look like they're from OS/2 2.0.
Wow, that's a pretty stupid idea for a metric currency system. Can't get rid of the nickel AND the dime.
We're good. You have to say, "Candyman" FOUR times.
Whoops...
Question for everyone: what are those rules?
Aren't they supposed to be posted for comment somewhere?
It's a shame that Senator from Illinois wasn't elected President. He promised transparency.

Stern Electronics' Berkerk comes to mind.

I'd like whatever plugin it is that keeps Firefox from ballooning to 1+ GB of RAM if I have a few tabs open.

Because private schools are PRIVATE. You don't have to send your kids there.
No, I had absolutely no idea!

It's too bad the Allies released those photos of the concentration camps. They were literally working for the Nazis and their SS arm.
