I don't know about majority but whenever I see a guy who looks to be a little off carrying a fanny pack, I watch it. if the pack seems to be fairly heavy (droops, makes thuds noisy when set down etc)I be sure to keep my mouth shut.
It is easy to tell if some thing is heavier than it should be by how it is held, carried. So don't think you aren't being noticed just because it is out of sight.
Not completely true. Small to medium size businesses pay higher tax rate than large companies.they dont have the lawyer/accounting teams to not pay more.
If companies and people paid their share instead of dodging it then the overall rate would be lower for everyone.
um you already are seeing the end of the results of a large government bureaucracy trying to handle multiple insecure networks.
The problem is no one does good security. It has to be installed ground up and thought out ahead of time, with the needs of the users, limitations of technology, need of oversight, and management thought about from an objective point of view.
it is either to tight to allow for actual use by users. the flights systems need thumb drives to transfer GPS data into and images out of those systems. That is bad design.
Steve Jobs said it best. Design isn't just the interface, it isn't just component layout, it is everything.
The wings weren't a problem for the shuttle. Take a look at all the carbon scoring on the body to realize they only replaced sections that they had to.
No the two main problems with the shuttle was the main engines had to be pulled rebuilt and tested after every flight. The second was the location of the main fuel tank.
The X37B has none of those problems. it sits atop of the main fuel tank, and only has maneuvering thrusters, no main engines that need to be repaired.
At work i get 5 reports daily by mail, and another6 weekly. By having them auto sorted into folders i can read them when i want instead of them sitting in my inbox. Most of them i dont have to read unless problems appear elsewhere.
The other thing is most search engines suck. I use search in gmail because it works but i rarely have luck with the same search in outlook
That is why your confused. The purpose of religion is to make you feel better about the choices you make, and to make you a part of an extended family so you can feel like you belong.
Humans are lazy. The easist way to feel good about yourself is to compare yourself to some one else. So you find or make up something that you dislike about another person that you can push them below you.
Some try to step above such pettiness but few really do.

Gardens don't like walls. either you control it to tightly and everything whither and dies, or you let it loose and it over grows beyond real control.
maintaining a perfect balance for any length of time is extremely difficult. Apple's controls will either be ripped away from them, or they will control it to tightly and it will whither. All it takes is time. It has been 4 years and the competition is just really catching up. In another 5 we shall see.
All that said steve's push for usable interfaces pushed computing technology in directions that no other manufacturer dared to go. For that alone he will be missed.
The problem is scale. 1% of people in the USA is 3 million false positives. With 100,000+ people flying everyday, that is 1,000 false positives from 5,000 possible airports
That would be 30,000 jobs just to track down those false positives.
the problem is it is cheaper to build more containers than it is to ship the empty ones back.
If you can reduce the space required to ship the empty ones back by a significant margin, then it becomes cost effective to not build new and waste, but simply stack 4 empties int he space of one regular container.(no I didn't read the article on how far it packs up.
automating the folding later if engineered correctly shouldn't be hard to do.
Apple wasnt given a choice it was either EFI or BIOS for the switch to intel chips however Apple doesnt lock out other OS's on their systems yet still has restrictions for their OS.( Apple OEM install discs only install on hardware they came with, within the model. Mac mini install discs wont install on a macpro. Macbook discs dont install on an imac. Or you can buy the full version which installs on everything mac.
Restricted yet easy far more open than MSFTS stupid plan.
because Orbital mechanics make long term(several hours worth) tracking by satellites very difficult and very expensive.
with Satellites you get an hour or two window of opportunity to view the subject and if he hides for that hour you can't track him.
with UAV's you get on demand tracking that lasts long enough to be useful(drones can last for hours and sometimes days flying) over the same 20 mile area.
Slashdot Mirror
exactly. raising waters may flood low area's like Manhattan, or new orleans.
This isn't bad, but the only way to really clean up wall street is to push it literally underwater.
shhh don't tell the greenies the truth. they don't like it.

The trick with laws unless it is explicitly outlawed it is legal, and therefore fair game.
Do not ask what the law was meant to achieve but how can it be abused by anyone else.
Since there is no law against doing stuff with that knowledge it will be used against people.
The difference is Amazon is a known retailer who uses lots of advertising, and is well known for collecting information for advertisers.
Opera hasn't been caught doing that yet. (it is a revenue stream they are missing)

However if the Russians don't get soyuz working again soon the ISS will be abandoned 6 weeks from now.

EV is cheap is the the power storage systems that suck.
batteries are heavy, and have barely 1/3 of the power that they need to even come close to replicating normal driving habits.
They are getting better, but in real world testing, the limitations are coming to light.
The same way Americans say buy Ford,GM or Chyrsler when 90% of the cars built by those companies come from Mexico.
Never trust that a brand is made in the same country as the parent corp.
The problem is scale. 1% of people in the USA is 3 million false positives. With 100,000+ people flying everyday, that is 1,000 false positives from 5,000 possible airports

As a financail advisor recently pointed out.
There is no trade imbalance with China. They give us tons of wortgless goods and we give them tons of eorthless dollars.
Seems fair wen you think about it.
Then you need to expand your horizons quite a bit.
the BBC has had several stories on it. CNN has had a coule of shorts on it the last few days.
all that said though if 1000's of people was 1,000 and included the cops and EMT's then maybe the slashdot story is right.
Also the protesters are egging on the cops.
Stallman did that already it is called HURD.
I hear next year they will finally be able to have text output on the screen.
Normal people arent competent.
Competent people are harder to find than 1 in a million.

security requirements, background checks, and unions will pretty much mean that only a handful of companies can do it and make a profit from it.
Which is why Americans have become fat. Other countries dont want to look at us from the sky providing a natural camoflage.
Only after you develop a giant callous on your finger tip to keep the pain away.
