Capable thieves use a tow truck or flatbed, as demonstrated here. They'll typically climb under and chop the ground wire to the battery. 15 seconds, tops.
Radio control is a perfectly valid use of a ham license. As mentioned, it's not a common thing to do. As long as you're not encrypting your signal, and you send your station ID at the appropriate intervals, you should be good.
Zombie Rag - you know what happens when you bring something back from the dead. It'll sorta resemble the original, but it'll have doll eyes (pretty pics with no meat behind them,) and an insatiable appetite for brains (advertising.) Might even have an aggressive attitude toward non-subscribers (Top 10 Ways to Get Into IT Management.)
I'm wondering if the ham radio guys will be able to hear carrier operations. "Fwwweeeep!" Hey Earl, that sounded like an F/A-18.
Of course, that information works for both sides. When your opponent is listening to your carrier ops, you run the EM launcher a bunch of times, leading him to believe a fighter wing is inbound.
I'm sure they've considered RF emissions. If for no other reason, RF emissions are energy in the system that's not used for the primary purpose.
irony - the use of words to convey a meaning that is the opposite of its literal meaning
Congresswoman Mack and her late husband are supporters of enhanced copyright legislation. You know, that government imposed monopoly that restricts your ability to create derivative works? Quoting TFA:
Mack argued that "the Internet has progressed and thrived precisely because it has not been subjected to the suffocating effect of a governmental organization's heavy hand."
Iron fist, may I introduce you to Mr. Velvet Glove?
Further, copyright violations are the basis of the current push to regulate the internet. "Think of the Children" only goes so far.
Anyone else see this as ironic, considering that Congresswoman Mack was married to Sonny Bono when he introduced that most-horrible piece of retroactive-copyright-extension legislation?
I'm reading this as "How dare anyone [except *us*] attempt to regulate the intarwebs!"
If they built the building as a big RF screen room, they could do what they want inside. The FCC can't complain, because there aren't any emissions over the public airwaves.
As mentioned earlier, it's not a matter of knowing or not-knowing something, it's a matter of procedure during a trial. Jurors are not allowed unsupervised access to information outside the courtroom while a trial is in-progress. This is one aspect of maintaining a neutral-bias on the jury. In a courtroom, the opposing counsel is offered the opportunity to rebut information presented. How was that opportunity created when the jury forewoman introduced new information to the jurors?
Further, it's a matter of context. Surfing Wikipedia for random information will result in a different interpretation on your part when compared to reading the same information while seated on a jury. Your contextual environment is different, therefore your interpretation will differ.
It's not a scam, any more than minimizing your taxes in April is a "scam." There's nothing nefarious here. It's just an optimization within the rules. You may not like it, but the behavior is allowed. If you don't like it, petition to get the rules changed.
Note that some states have a "default" marriage condition when a couple co-habitates for an extended period, probably to prevent the optimization above. Also, if the stay-at-home mom in the above example is receiving benefits from the dad, she should be considered a dependent on his taxes, which would alter the equation substantially.
A sign asking visitors to check their guns is only prudent if the visitors are carrying guns.

On entering the main street, leading north and opposite the bridge on the river, somebody of our party in the rear turned his gun loose into the air. The Rebel and I were riding in the lead, and at the clattering of hoofs and shooting behind us, our horses started on the run, the shooting by this time having become general. At the second street crossing, I noticed a rope of fire belching from a Winchester in the doorway of a store building. There was no doubt in my mind but we were the object of the manipulator of that carbine, and as we reached the next cross street, a man kneeling in the shadow of a building opened fire on s with a six-shooter. Priest reined in his horse, and not having wasted cartridges in the open-air shooting, returned the compliment until he emptied his gun. By this time every officer in the town was throwing lead after us, some of which cried a little too close for comfort. When there was no longer any shooting on our flanks, we turned into a cross street and soon left the lead behind us.
The very next installations of invasive "security" equipment should be anywhere our elected officials frequent. Let them lead by example, prior to infcicting this BS on the general population.
I would suggest that, since they're heading toward "universal" security measures, we take a cue from the Old West and require that everyone carry a sidearm. That'll take security down to the individual person, regardless of mode of transportation.
Yes, there will be some irresponsible behavior at first (consider it an initial boundary condition,) but things will sort themselves out once the yahoos have removed each other from the equation.
More than likely, OmniBot 6000 recommends the most expensive item currently in inventory, and tells you the selection is based on a "complex algorithm involving facial analysis."
"Plucking things out of the sky" isn't cost effective. You'll note that the Shuttle hasn't done that often. If your satellite costs $300M to build, a new one costs almost an order of magnitude less than the $1B Shuttle mission plus the refurbishment costs of the old bird.
As for leaving the arm in space, that would restrict missions using the arm to orbital planes that the arm happens to be stowed in. Changing your orbital plane is hugely expensive.
Thank you. The "cat is entitled to my assistance" mentality is the reason I stopped using my super-powers to help people. They were completely ungrateful, and I found that it just created a dependency situation where everyone work-shifted or blame-shifted everything onto me. When I refused to help, they branded me "villian." So be it. At least the headaches don't happen as often as they used to.
It's been a while since I caused any mayhem. If it weren't so damned labor intensive, I might consider it.
Hold on a sec, champ. Just because I have super powers, you *expect* me to get the mangey feline out of the tree, or to extinguish the burning crack house? How about you step up to the plate and demonstrate a little discipline or ingenuity?
If one thing burns my super-bacon, it's the entitlement mentality shared by the lot of you. "Oh, I have done something irresponsible, and now I *demand* that you absolve me of responsibility for my actions." And when I don't? Somehow I become the bad guy.
(If you had gotten you cat declawed, it wouldn't be in the tree, now would it?)
There's value in making a very public example of folks like this. Consulates don't want to be bothered with Joe Everyman and his get-rich-quick scheme.
Besides, this could easily be a test of loyalty from a friendly nation. You wouldn't want to damage decades of political negotiations over a penny-ante commercial information leak.

You sure that Kodak invented the Polariod? Edwin Land, rest his soul, is not amused.

Everything I do upsets my wife. Clearly you aren't married ...
I'm glad I'm not the only one who remembers Moonwalker.
Maybe he meant eleventy-billion, and just forgot to include the "B" on the end.

It looks like you are about to crash. Would you like me to:
