So, you expect a squad to carry a pile of them around, just to make sure they've got one that works. Would it be one guy operating all of them, or would every squad member...teams don't all typically do the same job, certainly not at the same time. In addition to adding weight to the packs of every additional GI that has to carry one, you've gone from one operator to however many you need now to ensure mission success. A squad will typically have maybe a dozen troops...do I really need ten of them to drop their weapons and do this task? No, you clearly haven't thought of the use cases, or the implications of what your suggesting.
Okay, I'll step back from the edge. Guess I was lead astray by the fact that we were talking about driving, and you brought up phones, and "already in the users hand", but we can call off the rescue squad now.
It's a tiny surveillance drone. How in the hell do you misuse it on the battlefield?
Seriously, you can't imagine? There will be all sorts of dogfights, and peeking into places they shouldn't...ladies room, commanders office. There are often long periods of boredom, and idle hands with nothing better to do than see if they can fly their drone and land it on a sleeping buddies ear. Realize that many of these folks are just barely out of high school, with a maturity level to match it. That's not meant as an insult in any way, just a fact. FWIW, I'm a veteran myself.
That's two words. And for the record, this can occur in completely mechanical designs as well. It happened to me in a '85 Hyundai Excel. Fortunately, it was simple enough to override...pushed the clutch to the floor, and watched the tach continue to climb...brake and turn off the ignition...easy peasy. Same thing when I restarted it, but after that no repeat, and the dealership couldn't find an issue.
Wait, you want a car app on your cell phone? As bad as Mickysoft is, I can't imagine a more stupid idea than having users play with their phone app while driving. If you're driving with your phone in your hand, you deserve to be Darwined....problem is, you'll likely take others with you.
Some of the older crowd will remember the Ralph Nadar book "Unsafe at Any Speed" from around '65. I'll trust Microsoft with my car when pigs fly. I was just surfing on my only Windows 10 box a few hours ago when it randomly rebooted w/o warning...haven't had time to investigate, but it wasn't a SW update.
With roughly 28,500 troops (many non-combat...doctors, lawyers, cooks, etc.) in Korea, our force there is not much more than a tripwire, helping to ensure we'd be involved in the even that the north decides to do something really stupid. Japan has about 50,000, and the gripe is usually about the real estate (like Kadena AB in Okinawa) which would have a lot of value to those on the island. While "many in Japan and Korea would actually like to see the US pull out", many would not for both financial and security reasons.
I'll agree with you on a single point. The length of royalties is obscene....I'm no fan of RIAA, MPAA, or any other monopoly.
So, do the video without that music if it's of such relatively insignificant value. Guests at a wedding are, by law in public, and they're not dancing to make money. Fair use is fine, but fair use doesn't allow you to make money off of other's work. You can use it for educational, news, or parody purposes. And seriously, please learn the difference between copyright and patented material. The internet and nearly everything else you use today, that was built off of the system that allows for patents. Please don't go off on the whole patent troll tangent...that should IMO be outlawed.
For the mods...Please point to anything he said that's "Informative". Anything at all that you didn't really know? Yeah, didn't think so.
While I agree with you, for the most part, cars typically don't have an opportunity for someone to cause 400 casualties. Though, you obviously could with proper planning.
I guess anyone who doesn't agree with your meme must be "retarded". Sure Snyder deserves some blame, but not the politically spun bullshit being weaved by the left. From politifact....
While local elected officials in Flint were subservient to Snyder’s emergency managers, those local officials concurred with the initial decisions to switch away from the old water source and to use the Flint River as an interim source.
Two months after the Flint River switch, Flint Mayor Dayne Walling declared to MLive.com that ‘it’s a quality, safe product. I think people are wasting their precious money buying bottled water.
Meanwhile, the Environmental Protection Agency -- during the administration of President Barack Obama -- has come in for criticism as well. A July 2015 email by a regional EPA administrator apologized for the warnings by the EPA’s own employee, Del Toral, and called them an "unvetted draft." Despite senior EPA officials’ delays in taking Del Toral’s warnings seriously, they were ultimately determined to have been accurate.
Several experts added that the problems in Flint cannot be divorced from the city’s long-term economic decline. And as long ago as 2010, the EPA expressed concern that "dramatic budget cuts" at the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality were having a "significant impact" on its water program. The governor at the time? Democrat Jennifer Granholm.
Drink a glass of Metamucil, or a wafer, and tell me again that fiber doesn't make you feel full. The American Heart Association (I provided a link elsewhere) agrees. Your anecdotal "speaking from experience" doesn't compare. I could easily do the same, after suffering from IBS for over 30 years. Got any science to back up your claims....no, I didn't think so.
What is "common dieting sense"? People toss the words "common sense" around like it's some magic elixir that everyone just knows. The best scientific data on the health of many foods has changed over time. Eggs, wine, liver, diet soda....so don't pretend the majority of people know what's healthy to eat and what's not.
Dietary fiber from whole grains, as part of an overall healthy diet, may help improve blood cholesterol levels, and lower risk of heart disease, stroke, obesity and type 2 diabetes. Dietary fiber can make you feel full, so you may eat fewer calories. Including whole grains in your diet plan may help you reach or manage a healthy weight.

Reminds me of "a whole nother"...may as well scratch your nails on a chalkboard when you say that near me.
Newsflash, it's already doing about half of those things.

And what about the time that it just has to fucking work? When someone's life is on the line? No, you can't just buy a bunch of the cheap versions.

That's because Carlin was right about "Fussy eaters"

I think that's the new plan to stop ISIS

Don't be ridiculous. I've been doing that since the '60s. It won't hurt you.
Here's evidence to the contrary.

Perhaps you had an incompetent interviewer.
High likelihood. Who do you think applies to these low paying positions? Anyone with a lick of skill wouldn't want to do this shit job.
Um...I've been across the boarder probably a thousand times, and never once been fingerprinted.
