Your an idiot. Seriously. I'm not perpetuating anything, merely pointing out a link on the web. I didn't qualify it. THIS is why people are starting to call people like you envronmental fascists. NO ONE can have a view that contradicts yours, right?
Current US statistics on WHAT? You make an interesting point but on what I'm not sure. The "dumb monkey mentality" that will "wipe the US into irrelevence" is meaningless without context. What the fuck are you talking about? I don't nessessarily disagree with you, but your point has no balls.
They put him in a debtors' prison until he has paid his debt off.
Where are you from, the 18th century? He was convicted in California, "debtor's prisons" are illegal in every US jurisdiction. Having a felony conviction however pretty much relegates him to being in debt for the rest of his life though.
Sir/Ma'am, your comment needs to be framed, hung in the foyer of the Senate Building, and copies sent to all the senators/representitives in the House & Senate.
Which is the argument I hear from anyone who doesn't live here; "I'm not going to California, too many earthquakes." So, nothing should happen here I guess becuase its possible a devistating earthquake will hit (Loma Prieta was like 20 years ago by the way). Meanwhile the east coast gets hit with hurricanes EVERY SEASON w/loss of life.
You need to actually read the wikipedia article; there was a law passed banning dissemination of bomb-making material on the internet, after a lot of bantering about, it took a LOT of legislative work to get it passed. But here's the thing; the lawmakers themselves recognized that you can buy hardcopy books on the subject at bookstores, and in all my time living in the US (born here and with a couple of exceptions lived here all my life) I've never heard of anyone being arrested for downloading such material anyway. So spouting off that the US "has the strictest [whatever] is a bit worthless, yeah? I can fault the US for a lot of things, but your point is utter fluff.
The Chinese are EXPORTING this offensive technology, seems a bit beyond the "investment" stage. Of course, if you refuse to read the evidence, I can't make you see the light.
The PLA is a major user of cruise missile technology, and China both manufactures and exports a wide range of cruise missiles in all categories.
The PLA's preoccupation with cruise missiles reflects the historical reality that until the advent of the modern Su-30MKK/MK2 and FH-7 fighters, China lacked aircraft capable of penetrating any defences.
China's first generation of cruise missiles were based on the Soviet Styx, and derivatives of this 1950s design remain in production. More recent Chinese designs are modelled on the Western Exocet, Harpoon and Tomahawk families of missiles.
In addition to domestically built cruise missiles, China also operates the imported Russian supersonic 3M80E Moskit / SS-N-22 Sunburn, and the 3M54/3M14 Klub/Kalibr / SS-N-27 Sizzler missiles.
Smells to me like the Chinese are heavily invested in something that "doesn't pass the smell test."
Carrier fleets are not defenseless against subs, infact their defense has centered around sub-based offense. But the Chinese really don't care- not becuase of their sub fleet, which is small and 20 years behind in technology, but becuase of this. These types of missles are far cheaper and much more effective than attack subs.
Yeah, clever. The Android ADK has instructions for writing apps using html5 and javascript. You wanna be pedantic, take it up with google. Leave me out of your personal crap.
I started allowing JavaScript to use even, uh, less than trustworthy sites.
Well, that's on you. I use it too to good effect. I have a few web sites I trust more than most, but I still disallow popups, scripts from 2nd level sites, and it appears to prevent cross site scripting effectively enough. Not using it... what's your point?

You can worry about global cooling in five or ten thousand years.
Much like the world did when I was back in highschool in the 70's.

Everyne else? I think we need to work on welcoming our own citizens first.
It's bad for another reason too. Earth Quakes.

I think the next Dr. Who should be a woman, deffinately. With the usual hot female sidekick. Deffinately.
I have not seen a single version of Windows 7 that works with updates turned on without side issues like not booting without a fixmbr...
Ok guy, whatever you say. Oh, my windows 7 license just expired! damn...
Yes? It sounds like the US has the strictest rules here, punishable by a $250,000 fine and 20 years' imprisonment. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bomb-making_instructions_on_the_internet#Legislation

Money is the root of all problems. Best action is to reduce its influence...
Good luck with that.
Pirated/hacked copies and Linux...
The ability to hack Linux is by design.
He/she meant Pirated/hacked copies of WINDOWS AND linux, genius. Learn to 'merican.
...Windows 7 or 8 isn't as easy to pirate...
*lolz*... ok.
I'm already paying $150/mo for internet and cable.
This is why I refuse to buy into cable. Yet I still catch all my favorite shows. Cable provider logic is pretty messed up.

Not a single story about the deadly Chinese cruise missile passes the smell test.
The Australians seem to believe otherwise.

...with no tests to show of.
Sure, the Chinese military opens up its test results to all comers.

When your only tool is a hammer, everything looks like a felony. Er, nail.

You can write a useful android app just using html 5 & javascript. And that removes the need to worry about ascpect ratios as well.
We have a mechanism in place that's supposed to be monitoring these organizations, its called CONGRESS. Of course, its easily distracted.
There are a lot of upsides to putting controls systems on the net. Not applauding it, just sayin'. I wrote a blog article about it; here 'tis.
You're also of the "why should I be worried if I'm doing nothing wrong?" mindset as well, I suppose?
