The US has never asked anyone to arrest him with the intention of extraditing him. We have nothing we can extradite him for.... Extradition to the US is out of the question.
Also documentation and support available in Chinese. Alibaba is very cheap as well.
Is it connected to the Internet too? Or only to the Chinanet (you know, that country-wide intranet thing that also features a couple of heavily firewalled gateways to the Internet)?
Uhm?
You consider a movie based on a comic to be the pinnacle of world culture?
As a non-American, I'd consider the US entertainment industry including "Hollywood" to be a pinnacle of world culture. Yeah, there is trash coming out of there, but that's the case with everything. But there is a lot of creativity too, and a wide range of styles, opinions and influences. There is a certain snob belief among some elites, especially in Europe, that for something to be called "culture", it must be at least 300 years old (to be named "high culture", archeologists must have dug it out of the ground somewhere). Thats unjustified. Most new entertainment and news formats are pioneered in the US, be it movies, streaming video, "the golden age of TV", talk shows, late-night shows, SNL, cable news, heck, even presidential debates were invented there. How will this all be judged 300 years from now? Quite positively I think. These days even public latrines in ancient Rome are considered (quite plausibly) to be a major cultural achievement.
Are you familiar with how a wall works? A ladder? If your border security can be defeated by a ladder, your border security is laughably pathetic. Spending $5B on security that can be defeated by your typical lower-class Mexican is the peak of ignorance and stupidity.
The $5B aren't enough to complete the wall. That would require on the order of $25B. The $5B thing can be defeated by walking around it.
I sometimes think that people -- including law enforcement people -- just shouldn't take social media utterings all that seriously. Maybe a tweet shouldn't have the same weight as an official written press release. It's just a different mode of communication. More like talking to the crowd at a concert. This whole social media thing is still sort of an experiment that none of us have willingly signed up for while knowing the full consequences.
Doesn't really matter. The search engine revenues are what drives (pays) the whole thing. If enough people perform the three steps I described in the OP, the rest of Google's endeavours won't be sustainable at current levels for very long.
During Standard Oil's heyday, a consumer wanting to escape from the monopolist's grip would've had to drill for oil himself and build his own refineries.
If you were a Windows user and wanted to kiss Microsoft goodbye, you still had to remove Windows from your hard drive and buy/download/compile all your apps for your preferred alternative OS, if at all possible.
Escaping the Google search engine monopoly, according to my latest information, requires the following steps:
1. launch browser
2. type "bing.com" into the address bar
3. hit "Enter"
This has to be the cutest "monopoly" in the history of antitrust legislation.
If Trump's major decisions can be influenced by secretly putting or removing papers from his desk, he's at the whim of unelected staffers anyway and has no workable independent "policy" that he'd pursue. And that notion is exactly in line with what we've heard about the guy before -- that he is constantly swayed by whatever person he last talked to.
I understand the point was to highlight the aftermath of the crash, but seat belts aren't going to save you if someone comes at you head-on at 100 MPH.
It would obviously depend on the masses of the vehicles involved. I was wondering for a moment whether an SUV might be heavy enough relative to a sports car to give you some chance of survival, but probably not at that speed difference.
The kind of sentimentality that permits that to work is outright dangerous in an adult.
It's called empathy, and it's wired into the brain. Most people's brains anyway. Really, that whole experiment just found out that human empathy exists.
I wasn't criticizing Comey's decision (I know about the conflict that he was in, and I think the man was an outstanding public employee), I was just refuting the parent poster's allegation that the FBI was trying to "sabotage Trump".
Strzok sat on evidence incriminating Trump campaign members in connection with Russian election interference -- and didn't publish it. And Comey basically threw the election to Trump by reopening the Clinton investigation in late October.
That's some strange behaviour for people supposedly trying to "sabotage Trump".
For the leftists out there that's called capitalism. North Korea communist socialist shithole. South Korea a shining beacon of capitalist freedom. You get North Korea when you vote Democrats or the left.
Well, it seems to me that the Democratic Party is the more pro-business one these days as Republicans are regressing into protectionist alt-right populism, destroying stability, amassing debt, eroding the rule of law and damaging trade relations with the the world. Also blue states, on average, produce more private sector jobs and have more GDP per capita.
The people giving advice on Korea have been fucking it up for 60-ish years, and REALLY fucking it up for 25 resulting in a viable nuclear program. So I wouldn't listen to them either.
What exactly has been "fucked up"? There's been a ceasefire for 60 years, the two Koreas still exist and are habitable, one of them has become one of the richest, most prosperous countries on earth. That's not ideal, but it's more than could reasonably expected in 1953.
The information leak has nothing to do with Facebook specifically. It works by "scanning" the contents of an iframe, which you should work with any other website just as well.
To be legitimized on the world stage. That's all Kim has ever wanted.
They've wanted that for 40 years or so. The problem is that Trump, unlike any of his predecessors, was just going to give it to them in order to gain some "win" out of it. He even called Kim "His Excellency" and "Supreme Leader" on those presidential commemorative coins celebrating the meeting that now won't take place. Which goes to show that Trump "needs" Kim too for something, and he needs him in the next six months or so, while Kim can surely wait some more years.
Does anyone remember last year, when Trump accidentally boasted about a secret CIA/Mossad operation that the grownups had told him about to the Russian ambassador in the Oval Office? I'm pretty sure ever since that event, they have dumbed down the daily intelligence briefings to the point that where doesn't matter anymore who listens in on it. And Trump now bases his "policy" decisions on Sean Hannity anyway.

Please remember the Steele Dossier and it's vaguely cited anonymous sources. Please remember how accurate it has turned out to have been.
So how accurate has it turned out to have been? Has it been disproven already?

Oh, yeah, they were busy trying to sabotage Trump

You're right, I was confused.
