It's not clear that what he was doing was against the law. He had no authority to provide evidence against a civilian to local authorities, so it couldn't be used against the defendant; but if the defendant had been in the military there wouldn't be any issue.
Those links talk of "studies" and "journals" but don't provide links to them. I did find this link
The main proponent of sodium bicarbonate as an alternative cancer treatment is Tullio Simoncini, MD...
According to the Cancer Treatment Watch Web site, "[Dr. Simoncini] has been using unsubstantiated cancer treatments for 15 years in 2003, his [Italian] license to practice medicine was withdrawn, and in 2006 he was convicted by an Italian judge for wrongful death and swindling"
a 512GB model that represents a 1,000-fold increase over the company's first 512MB card...The card is rated to function in temperatures from -13 to 185 degrees Fahrenheit. The 512GB model retails for $800.
All that in a standard 1 1/4 x 1 inch package. Amazing.
They just raise federal taxes and send piles of money back to individual states as long as those states fall in line
That only works if the federal dollars are cost effective compared to the mandate. Obamacare goofed on that by assuming states would want to run their own exchanges. Plus if the feds get too heavy handed the constituents will vote them out - which is the main reason Ms. Pelosi is no longer Speaker.
Why would a government not want to provide incentives? It happens all the time, everywhere. Sometimes it benefits one industry a subsidy (think "green" energy), sometimes it benefits one company (think Solyndra or General Motors), sometimes it actually makes sense to help a company or lure it into your region so you can charge other taxes (Tesla). Keep in mind that the US is a federation of states - not one monolithic government. This is a state (Nevada) which is competing with other states (California and Texas). Kind of like Ireland or Poland luring companies away from France.
I don't see how any of that matters. If you could buy the hardware without the software we might have an alternative OS; as it is the software is crammed down your throat.
Launching payloads into low Earth orbit was the goal. Do you know what "scientific experiments" the cosmonauts were doing in MIR for all those years? Taking pictures maybe? (no maybe about it, that's why there were up there). Is it a coincidence that the Shuttle's cargo bay was a perfect fit for US spy satellites?
Every single space program* is currently for peaceful purposes.
Every space program from the 1950's on has been primarily for two purposes: 1) Espionage 2) Missile technology. Science is a distant third but has always been used as the front for PR purposes.
Their philosophy/purpose was expressed in these following selected sentences:
The first principle of our movement must be anti-imperialism.
In order to fundamentally change the whole system of military, political and economic domination, our solidarity movement must fight imperialism in its totality... By opposing the entire imperialist system, our solidarity movement can support the revolutionary forces and actually help them to win a new world order.
The independence struggle of Puerto Rico is a strategic wedge of Latin American revolution that penetrates into the U.S. itself... In response to US imperialism, 5 armed clandestine political-military organizations in Puerto Rico, and the FALN in the US are attacking key US military and corporate targets and leading a growing people's war.
If she had admitted she was a member but had left it years ago she probably would have been okay. But lying about it in the interviews cost her the job.
Pretty much anything that involves catching a ball would set it off as easily as shooting a gun. This really sounds like a solution (smart watch) in search of a problem.

Here's a video of someone using the new texting lane
Yea. All is costs is money.
Cha Ching!
It's not a FREE ALBUM. Apple rolled the cost into every phone it sells; you paid for the album whether you wanted it or not.
Yup. Back in the 1970's the Shah of Iran said something along the lines of: "Oil is too valuable to burn".

The most reasonable explanation why we haven't found alien life is...
...the aliens live (or used to live before their star blew up) light years away from us, and they have to follow the same laws of physics as us.
this is the same thing they said about Socialism (everyone would just sit around getting high instead of doing interesting shit).
Right, that's what happened. Look at what the rate of alcoholism was in the USSR.
Since you asked...no. Too many people have the "I'm special" attitude; it applies to speed limits, texting, wearing seat belts, you name it.
How about we do both?

Wild just means they live in the wild; whether the animal is indigenous or exotic is another question.
If they're smart they follow the money. It's a free country.

Microsoft could have used that defense too - Don't like Windows? Buy a Mac. It goes both ways.
Nevada already has a higher unemployment rate than surrounding states
Bingo. Just the savings in unemployment compensation and Medicaid that Nevada pays will be a big chunk of it.

Providing your own IP address to a criminal so you can trash their computer just doesn't sound like a good plan to me.

I'd like to see both awarded a minimum number of flights (say 1/4 or 1/3 of total planned) at a fixed maximum price
In an ideal world, sure. But in the real world neither the government nor either company could afford that. NASA has to pick one and fund it.

Contracts this big never go to just one company. They'll both get a slice of the pie - the only question is who gets the bigger slice.
