It says, "we can't create any strong female superheroes, so we'll just change the sex of one." It's really just like Supergirl or Batgirl, which were pretty much wannabes of the "real" superheroes, as opposed to female Green Lanterns or even a female Robin where it's more about the values and principles of the uniform. For example, a female Iron (wo)Man would make far more sense (alternate universes aside).
Maybe you could take advantage of his map-reading "skills" to have him transferred to the Unexploded Munitions Survey instead. I'm sure he'll make a big bang there.
If another world war did occur, and people did grow victory gardens, Congress would be able to tell you what you could grow in it, tax it, etc. because the Supreme Court said it could affect interstate commerce.
I am befuddled. This is the dumbest AC post I have ever seen modded up. You mean to tell me there are three Slashdotters who believe that there are no good restaurants in all of the USA, to the extent that it makes for a good joke? 320 million people, thousands of great chefs, cities renowned for cuisine like NY, LA, and Chicago, and we're all McDonalds? I thought the ignorant, outdated "American piss beer" comments were bad, but this is ridiculous and disgusting.
Unlike Dubya, people forget that Kennedy and Johnson were Democrats, responsible for starting the war, and pretending that bloodthirsty war-hawks are confined to the GOP.
No, Rangel was a boastful attention-whore. He should know, since he was ALIVE, that the draft created a LESS equitable-- not a more equitable-- military, as the "affluent" he's referring to could find ways to gain exemptions or serve in less hazardous capacities.
Seriously, aren't we already close enough to a literal police state? As a manufacturer, I would refuse to enable such an option for the police without a written warrant in my face. Is that feasible during a car chase? Too bad; that's the price of liberty.
He's a senator because the Democrats learned from the mistakes of the 2000 Presidential election and this time, made sure the ballots were counted "properly".
Sure, let's ignore the two years when the Ds controlled both houses and the Presidency, yet nothing changed.
Sure, let's ignore the fact that the Senate is still controlled by Ds.
Sure, let's ignore the fact that the White House is still occupied by a D, who has executive power on the regulatory department capable of making some of the changes.
I'm sure it's all because of one party, and if we just eliminate that party, the Democrats will fix everything. Don't think of it as one-party rule, think of it as one fewer party.
Reading the summary, I thought this would be about actual hacking... say, making the car do something awesome it couldn't do before. Maybe, like adding a special performance mode, improving its charge rate, or adding features to its entertainment system. I see it's really all about pwnage. I'll pass.
If it's 97% of the world's scientists, that's just a fallacious appeal to authority as only some scientists are climate experts. Example of a false authority: Bill Nye.
No, it's in fact NOT LIBERTARIAN to allow private organizations COMPLETE CONTROL of the freedom of an individual, whether that individual is a child or not.
Besides your scenario being foolish-- there is a significant customer base like you who the airlines would like to serve-- it's not government's place to keep you from being annoyed. Banning phone calls in-flight because it annoys people is worse than the chewing gum ban in Singapore. At least that was done because of the vandalism to the infrastructure.
People seldom hit construction workers in PA because they're never actually working...
Seriously, we do have a lot of jobs where the work is done at night so in theory it doesn't impede rush hour. In practice, however, it still screws up everything because the work area is still posted at a lower speed even though no workers are in it. Often there isn't even a hazard like a closed shoulder to be concerned of. This kind of frustration is what makes people tend to ignore the lower limits, so when there really are workers, they might assume the boy is still just crying wolf.

Frankly, this is an incredibly misogynist move.

... and are still subject to taxation on both the principal and the interest.
The IP address these changes were coming from was congressional so, no.
Well, that gives ammo to the wingnuts who think we should have governors to keep us under the speed limit at all times.
Well, I hope not.

Uh... he didn't create DOS. He created CP/M. You could say MS screwed DR out of a _deal_ with IBM, but it's likely he did that to himself.
You crazy anti-vaxxer! Who let Jenny McCarthy in here?
Well, they gave the Westerners syphillis, so... call it even.

It's funny when leftists who claim to support open borders show themselves to be the selfish xenophobes they are.
You probably meant "disoriented", although I have to say a disinterested pilot would be almost as bad.
The U.S. Constitution is in the public domain. And chances are, the police haven't read it before.
I would totally just take a bag full of dead cell phones to the airport with me if I didn't think it would result in a cavity search.

Ever hear of air bags?
