The problem is that there is always going to be someone that calls any war or anything military illegitimate
Yes, but the fact is that the constitution does outline a basis for legitimacy.
I think the real problem is the other way round. The government always tries to find a way to attempt to assign false legitimacy to any kind of rogue military operation or fake undeclared "war" which a portion of the government sees fit to undertake.
No Thank You. We do not. And we should not tolerate one. No secret courts. No star chambers. No secret surveillance. No government operations of any kind that are secret except legitimate military secrets in time of legitimate war.
Dude! Booting up has nothing whatsoever to do with anyone being logged it. You put the script in rc.local, or whatever the hell serves the purpose in systemd, or make it a service, or easiest of all, just a cron job.
Jeeze, services will even start in Windows and Mac without anybody being logged in.
Unpressurized cabin or no, the rated service ceiling is 8500 m, and it is capable of reaching 12,000 m. Sailplane cockpits are not pressurized either, but the altitude record for sailplanes is 15,460 m. Jet streams can be found as low as 7000 m, though they are usually at least 10,000 m.
The thing that boggled my mind about this plane was, why build a plane with a basically unlimited endurance, and then burden it with a pilot, who can't possibly last very long? The plane can only travel 1700 km per 24 hours.
Not if the jet stream is blowing over 100 mph and the plane is flying in the jet stream in the opposite direction at just 45 mph. OTOH, the solution is simply not to fly in the jet stream, which is mappable geographically. Also, the plane may not cruise at the same altitude as the jet stream is usually found.
Well, the HINDENBURG filled with hydrogen lifted 480,000 lb including some 35,000 lb of engines plus 120,000 lb of fuel as well as the structural weight. With non flammable helium it would still have been over 400,000 lb, with large advances in structural materials since 1936 from which to save structural weight. Considering that it only required 3200 hp to fly 78 mph, and could have flown at 39 mph with only 400 hp, there's a helluva lot to spare for solar cells, electric motors, and batteries.
Yeah, I'd say tens of thousands of pounds is absolutely no stretch at all.
A truly interesting point of view. There's a lot to think about there, even if I am a little vague what the "it" is on which you would stake your life.
I have a bad feeling about your point that (forgive my perhaps presumptuous rephrasing) the sheep can live with the lion in the US because of widespread apathy; of lack of widespread blazing dedication to principles (good or bad). It appears to me that it is an unstable situation. As more and more lions are constantly perversely imported and cloned, their native fierceness will assert itself (and is asserting itself) more and more, while sheep by definition never can learn to defend themselves, and the apathetic prefer to keep their heads in the sand.
I admit the above is symbolic, and I would rather not give labels to the lions and lambs, but I am sure that i will not deliberately stake my life on a bunch of people who don't care much about any issues being able to hold the lions in check, even if the latter be still (but not necessarily always) a group more limited in numbers.
I would beg you to consider one thought, if no other. There are not "both extremes". There are a vast many extremes. It never did exactly fit the mold of dichotomy on any very consequential subject, but it is far less so now and getting even less so all the time. The complex of issues is a complex of many polychotomies - but not precisely polychotomies because these are static, and the shifting sands of blazing viewpoints are anything but static.
Consider that 911 truthers are composed on many who count themselves on the left, many on the right, and many who refuse the false left/right dichotomy. Many of them think the ufo disclosists are crazy; and many agree with them - and vice versa. There are those who see positives in both the tea party and the occupy wall streeters. There is an overlap between socialists and libertarians. The neo conservatives seem to have rejected conservative political beliefs (and may or may not retain conservative economic ideas).
I'm pretty sure most people work for a living, and it's a small minority - about 1%, in fact - that steals from said productive people to support their parasitic lifestyle.
Your faith is touching, but your lack of realism disturbs me.
Which is precisely why the government officials that are required to swear into the office are required to uphold and protect the CONSTITUTION.
Yet essentially none are held to account and punished for committing the despicably evil act of false swearing or breaking their most sacred oath, which is clearly extremely widespread.
ALL democracies are destined to failure, that is not an option
True. Maybe that is why the founders framed the constitution to give us a democratic republic, not a democracy.
A lady: “Well, Doctor, what have we got—a Republic or a Monarchy?”
Dr. Benjamin Franklin: “A Republic, if you can keep it.”
I am not confused at all. I have ZERO TOLERANCE FOR TYRANNY. Drawing parallels is not precisely "equating". Not being quite as disgustingly evil as B - YET - does not excuse A's evil.
Smells like a push poll. Unfortunately however, it's barely possible that it's genuine. Nobody ever lost money betting on the abject stupidity and stunning shallowness of Americans. Just look what our brain dead zombie electorate have given us - our current thug overlords, evidently elected by the people. If anyone deserves full due process followed by being locked up in solitary for life, it is not Snowden; it is the current occupiers of the white hut, the senate, the house, most of the state counterparts, and the court system.
I don't personally know anybody who is negative about Snowden's action. Some people who are still in the tank with the old, worn-out Tweedledee vs Tweedledum fake facade do think he has gravitated toward questionable alternatives to his own failed nazi homeland, but he doesn't have much choice, does he.
The worldwide ganging up against liberty turns my stomach.
"We refer you to the reply given in the case of Arkell v. Pressdram."
"We note that Mr Arkell's attitude to damages will be governed by the nature of our reply and would therefore be grateful if you would inform us what his attitude to damages would be, were he to learn that the nature of our reply is as follows: fuck off."
Not arguing with the thought, but we don't yet have the faintest idea who is pulling the strings in the apparently successful insurrection against those lately in power.
The "bum" you look down on conveniently from your advantaged position ALREADY was entitled to free health since a long time ago. Nobody can be turned away from a hospital for inability to pay. Would you rather have him live and die in pain? Infect other people?
You're right that costs are going to rise. They have been rising for a long time. They will continue to rise with or without the ACA (admittedly, maybe more WITH it, but they wouldn't magically stop rising without it). But you are going to have to spend a little more intellectual effort and look into the issue a little deeper to come up with a point that has any merit.
Captain Obvious is annoyed that you woke him up to tell him the blindingly obvious news that pilots are going the way of the buggy whip - just like automobile drivers and ditch diggers.
Captain Obvious also has some further thoughts for you. It's not just the pilots who are going away. Why should business travelers and even the general public want to fly about from place to place when there are cell phones? Hmmm? Already you can see as well as hear anybody anywhere in the world with a reasonably recent cell phone. Do you really think they won't be adding touch, taste, and smell via direct nerve stimulation? Why do you have to waste time and limited and expensive energy to go see your mother or go on a date? This way you won't catch a cold from your mother sneezing, and you can have a date with anybody, be adventurous, you can't get herpes or worse. Travel accidents, illnesses, and threatening confrontations are so old fashioned.
In fact, why get out of bed at all? Most jobs are obsolete anyway, and I wouldn't be so sure that IT and corporate officer jobs can't be automated too. Your robotic equipment can keep you nourished in bed and stimulate your nerves to keep your muscles toned and inject medicaments to keep clots from forming.
Why go to the trouble of seeking new experiences or exploring in the flesh? Robotic explorers make ever so much more sense. You can always catch the omni-sense documentary of the exploration.
Would someone PLEASE get this heap to a speed shop! The heat death of the universe will be here before we get to the nearest ice cream hop. Jeeze. Already I need a shave and a haircut.

Ha ha, good one. Both sides can actually agree on that.
Learn.
It doesn't. C++ exceptions have exactly NOTHING to do with Win32 structured exceptions.
Then again (suggestion only), perhaps he yelled because YOU were violating the rules of the road ("going up the wrong side of the street")?
Sometimes they do, and sometimes they don't. A hand signal isn't going to be worth shit on a dark night, for example.
Jesus. She cannot be presumed to be asking for it regardless of the hang-ups of the local medieval population.

It's always going to be a problem, no matter how you try to address it. It's a fundamental limited-resources scenario.
