Other than time, fuel, and the cost of a parachute, there were no victims though. Nobody was actually killed nor injured. Victimless crimes are hardly worth severe punishment (and no, a corporation can't be a victim)
There are plenty of kidnap victims that would disagree with you. There's a reason that you can get life in prison for it, or death if you killed the person.
Um, it's not just about the money. This was a hijacking, with the threat of killing people if "Cooper" wasn't paid. If he's ever caught, he should still do time.
Kids aren't outside playing in the dirt nearly as much as in the 60s. My parents rarely knew where I was until they saw me come in for lunch or dinner back then. We didn't sit in front of a computer or Xbox all day, so in addition to the exposure, we were actually getting physical exercise.
Exactly, and it's interesting that allergy rates differ based upon where you were born...
From http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pm... The reasons for this stark difference in peanut allergy compared to the western population are not known. It is tempting to speculate that early exposure to peanut which is cooked braised or boiled may be one of the reasons for the development of tolerance, as Asians including children are often exposed to peanut rice porridge. It has been shown that roasting of peanuts increases its allergenicity [56]. However, other environmental factors that modulate mucosal immunity of the gut and induce mucosal tolerance may also be implicated and requires further study. Environmental influences are suggested by studies on migrant populations (see section below on Risk factors for food allergy). In the Singapore survey, it was shown that irrespective of ethnicity, those born in Asia had lower risk of peanut and tree nut compared to those born in Western countries
Ask yourself this question; are you ever going to get over being butt hurt over the FBI and DOJ not agreeing with your desire for Hillary Clinton to go to jail and stop posting this shit in unrelated topics?
Yes, if you ever admit, as Director Comey clearly indicated, that HRC lied and carelessly mishandled classified materials. And that typically people doing so would be administratively punished, including losing their access to such data. For someone who's about to be come president (I believe it's inevitable now that Trump has proven he's a loon), that's simply not a viable position to be in.

You may be authorized access, but that's NOT giving you permission to utilize someone else's account to do so. That breaks rules for logging who's done what on a system, and certainly isn't authorized anywhere that I've seen.
You know, a major property of the security of a password is the fact that it's something you know. If you write it down, it's something you have.
Except for the fact that with the various rules for passwords that differ from site to site, I have over 100 passwords that often need to be changed every quarter. Am I supposed to memorize all of those? This is a key failure of the current paradigm.
The obstacle to this new invention is that the whole obsolete airport and airline infrastructure must be rebuilt. So what? Shall we continue to get killed because it is easier to produce aircraft with a design from 1950s?
Obsolete compared to what, this untested concept? You're talking about spending literally trillions on an untested idea in an industry with the overall safest track record in all of transportation? Certainly there's always room for improvement, but when you're going to spend that much, your money is likely better spent in many other areas. It could certainly save a hell of a lot more lives.
True, but how frequently have you seen peers working an issue, and then someone else come in, and suddenly nobody could recreate the problem? I suppose this doesn't occur as frequently now as back in my days when we had so much electro-mechanical stuff to deal with....tape drives, and discs (that we actually repaired).
People will pay you money just so they don't have to talk to "Michael" with the very strong accent, and go through that tech support nightmare.
Seems no different than going through the fast food drivethru at McDonalds (and the majority of other chains), where I always have to double check my order, and it's typically wrong ~50% of the time. But one chain (leaving them nameless here, as I don't want to be a "fanboi") gets it right close to 100% with native speakers. I'm sure some will see this as a racist point of view, but to me it's simply providing good customer service/communication. The customer shouldn't have to struggle if you expect to keep their business.
Indeed. One of the best parts about doing chat support was being able to tell people "Click on this" and have their problem resolved in 10 seconds instead of having to painstakingly guide them step-by-step through how to get to the page with the instructions.
Having done in person tech support for our customers 70s-early 90s, some of my favorites were having them plug in the monitor, turn the on/off switch to the ON position, and turning up the intensity on their screen (which was blacked out). Most of our operators were fairly tech savvy, so they were normally embarrassed when screwing up so spectacularly.
I probably could have retired if I hadn't wasted so much over the years, and this doesn't include multiple used cars I've owned as well. Much of the turnover was due to moves every few years for work. What you can afford varies wildly based upon your circumstances. Are you supporting family, or single. Saving for kids education, retirement, etc., etc. Someone else made a claim here that you shouldn't spend more than 20% of your annual pay...don't know where he pulled that BS number from but YMMV, mine certainly has.

That's the most moronic thing I've seen written here in weeks. Congrats!
Newsflash, people still have aol addresses as well. You've probably upgraded to that one from the company that promised to "do no evil".

So we don't need to ever protect consumers from dangerous food either - if it kills you, you simply won't buy it the next time!
Whatever kills you makes you stronger...oh, wait.
You may be authorized access, but that's NOT giving you permission to utilize someone else's account to do so. That breaks rules for logging who's done what on a system, and certainly isn't authorized anywhere that I've seen.
Does this mean that checking "remember me" is now a crime too?
No, because you have authorized its use.
That depends if you're authorized to authorize them. Just because you have an account doesn't mean you can share access with those who don't.
