The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

Well, it doesn't have to be cheaper if you can sell some VP or an influencer on the idea of never having to enter a password again. "Cheaper" is just the easiest way to argue your cause. "It's worth the extra money" is usually harder, but not always when it's some gee whiz technology stuff that the users will physically interact with.
Why not ask someone who's been involved in the security decisions for a few years why things are the way that they are first?
The answer is almost always inertia. Someone setup (or worse, paid consultants to set up) the current system and that's what everyone is stuck with because no one will/can propose anything better.
Figure out how much time and effort tech support spends on dealing with forgotten or compromised passwords. Factor in the time lost by employees while they wait for tech support to deal with password problems. Find some research discussing the cost of a compromise.
Figure out how much a token based system will cost. Assume people will lose their tokens. Make the case that your solution is cheaper than the existing solution.
Then prepare to deal with "but we won't get compromised, so this is a waste of money"
While this is a good point, one of the questions we should be asking ourselves is to what degree the agency is under effective political control. For many years the FBI wasn't because it had the goods on everyone.
We have three branches of Government and the NSA belongs to the Executive Branch.
From what we've seen so far, the Legislative branch has simultaneously expanded the NSA's spying powers and been kept in the dark about the scope of the NSA's activities (which prevents meaningful oversight).
The Judicial branch's oversight of the NSA is something of a mystery. We don't know what the NSA tells the FISA court and the FISA court doesn't know what the NSA isn't telling them. And pretty much any other judicial cases involving the NSA get shut down with the claim of national security.
We know for certain that the Executive branch has been issuing classified opinions and directives to give the NSA expansive powers. They're under "under effective political control," just not the kind of control that the majority of Americans desire.
It worked like this: Amazon Europe paid 105 million EU to Amazon Technologies Inc in Nevada to license the rights to Amazon's intellectual property -- the patents and software for the websites, including that button that buys a book with one click.
Amazon Europe onsold the rights to use this intellectual property to Amazon EU for 519 million EU -- five times what it had paid the US company. Amazon Europe made an instant profit of 414 million EU, which would have been taxable, except that Amazon Europe is a limited partnership. It doesn't pay tax in Luxembourg.
This is what the UK is trying to stop. A small transaction tax would do nothing to prevent naked abuses of transfer pricing.

Ask all those steel workers how their union is going. Oh wait we don't have any steel workers anymore because they priced themselves out of a job.
Yea, I bet it had nothing to do with China dumping ore and finished steel products on global markets. It's not like the USA and other countries have spent over a decade suing China via the WTO over their steel exports. And it probably had nothing to do with the growth of lower fixed-cost just-in-time minimills that took over half the market.
The bill of rights [...]. It should have absolutely no influence in a court case between two individuals.
If this was a civil trial, you'd have a point. But it isn't, and you don't. The case is Elonis v. United States, not Elonis v. Ex-Wife.
The first amendment - like anything written in the Constitution is absolute. It has to be. [...] So either the Constitution is absolute or it is not - but you can't have it both ways.
Well, then the Constitution isn't absolute.
Constitutional literalists seem to ignore that there was an extensive body of common law and common interpretations of law before the Constitution was ever written. Things that were illegal didn't suddenly become legal just because they weren't explicitly mentioned in the Constitution.
/The only crimes mentioned in the Constitution: piracy, counterfeiting, bribery, treason, and "high crimes and misdemeanors" /But the Constitution doesn't state what "high crimes and misdemeanors" are, so i guess that's not enforceable?

It's not just enough to have no legal obligations, you have to make sure you do not take any actions that could be construed as accepting an obligation.
The exact term escapes me at the moment, but I'll bet Cox created itself some legal issues when it partially went along with the various copyright enforcers.
Why would banning diesel force people to buy electric (very limited range) and hybrid (additional cost) when gasoline cars are more plentiful, have a significantly greater range, and are cheaper?
Answer:
Energy Minister Segolene Royal announced earlier this year that drivers scrapping diesel-powered cars to buy an electric one would be entitled to a bonus of up to 10,000 euros ($13,500).
The Europeans have never been afraid of using taxes and subsidies to push consumer behavior in the favored direction. Which is why diesels are so popular over there, since the fuel taxes have favored diesel over gasoline.
IMO, this is a bit nuts, since modern diesels are really clean. Ultra-low sulfur fuel allows for catalytic converters to limit NOx emissions and particle filters remove most of the carbon soot and fine particles.
I'd be interested in seeing the research the French looked at before making their decision.
Maybe, but the effects are less severe because state lines are enormously more difficult to change for short-term political advantage.
This is only tangentially related, but in the USA, many of the State borders are wrong.
Surveying was a significantly less exact science 200+ years ago. Many of the borders were marked by specific trees, rocks, or waterways that have since moved or disappeared. To add to the confusion, the surveyors didn't/couldn't always follow the original land grant instructions, since making a perfectly straight line across several hundred miles of wilderness was nearly impossible.
By way of example, the Four Corners Monument (AZ/CO/NM/UT) is ~1800 feet East of where it should be. The Mason-Dixon line (separating DE/PA/MD) is off by 800~900 feet in places. They couldn't correct for gravitational effects that skewed their plumb bob and consequently offset their star sightings.
For the most part, these issues aren't very contentious, except where water is involved. States fight like cats and dogs over water rights and access.
The way to get research funding in the US (and in lots of other countries) is to suggest that the technology has military relevance - with bullshit if necessary.[...]
[...] Development of solar panels and windmills weren't funded for fifty years over clandestine military budgets. God knows where they'd been today if they were.
Well, the good news is that the military has gotten enthusiastic about "going green" in a big way.
Thanks to extended wars in the mid-east, they've discovered that energy costs are making up a non-trivial part of the deployment cost. Nowadays, the Pentagon is actively defending solar/biofuel/battery research, because that will help free them from the tyranny of extended supply chains that lead to $400/gallon fuel.
The bad news is that Republicans are decidedly unenthusiastic about green energies and they've already done damage at State level private/public partnerships. Look out for fights at the Federal level, now that Republicans control both Houses.
Another fear is that iPhone sales could hit a wall in 2015 because of its success rate, RBC's Daryanani said.
The iPhone is on track to capture almost 70 percent of the high-end smartphone market ($300 or more) in the next few months, at which point the company could possibly face some market saturation concerns, said Daryanani, who has an "outperform" rating on the stock with a $120 price target.
"If you are looking at having 70 percent market share in the next few months, you have to ask where is the new opportunity or where are the new revenue drivers for them?" he said. "So you have a hit point where you run into some saturation in the market. In the next six months this could become an issue."

The crucial idea of our attack is to identify each client by an octet of outgoing connections it establishes. This octet of Bitcoin peers (entry nodes) serves as a unique identier of a client for the whole duration of a user session and will dierenti- ate even those users who share the same NAT IP address. We showed that most of these connections can be learned if the attacker maintains connections to a majority of Bitcoin servers. Then we show that the transaction propagation rules imply that the entry nodes will be among the rst that report the transaction to the attacker. As soon as the attacker receives the transaction from just 2-3 entry nodes he can with very high probability link the transaction to a specic client. Moreover a sequence of successfully mapped transactions can help the attacker to track dynamic changes in the entry node set, to keep the client identier fresh. The cost of the deanonymisation attack on the full Bitcoin net- work is under 1500 EUR.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Do you think the U.S. or U.N. forces should have moved into Baghdad?
CHENEY: No.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Why not?
CHENEY: Because if we had gone to Baghdad we would have been all alone. There wouldn't have been anybody else with us. It would have been a U.S. occupation of Iraq. None of the Arab forces that were willing to fight with us in Kuwait were willing to invade Iraq.
Once you got to Iraq and took it over and took down Saddam Hussein's government, then what are you going to put in its place? That's a very volatile part of the world.
And if you take down the central government in Iraq, you could easily end up seeing pieces of Iraq fly off. Part of it the Syrians would like to have, the west. Part of eastern Iraq the Iranians would like to claim. Fought over for eight years.
In the north, you've got the Kurds. And if the Kurds spin loose and join with Kurds in Turkey, then you threaten the territorial integrity of Turkey. It's a quagmire if you go that far and try to take over Iraq.
The other thing is casualties. Everyone was impressed with the fact that we were able to do our job with as few casualties as we had, but for the 146 Americans killed in action and for the families it wasn't a cheap war. And the question for the president in terms of whether or not we went on to Baghdad and took additional casualties in an effort to get Saddam Hussein was, how many additional dead Americans is Saddam worth? And our judgment was not very many, and I think we got it right.

, that could be implemented without replacing the window regulator. You'd just have to hack together some electronics the latch the circuit in the roll-up position until the current being drawn spikes indicating that it's rolled all the way up.
Not the regulator, the actual door pod with the switches. Some models can be modified with a little soldering and some trimmed plastic, but, because of how they're designed, most require a complete replacement of the entire unit.
That said, there are aftermarket control units that you can splice onto the existing wiring. But you should really only go that route if there's no OEM pod you can pull out of a higher trim level or another model.
The US Government routinely seizes the assets of its adversaries, even US Citizens
What you're talking about is the US Government seizing the assets its adversaries have parked in the USA. I'm not sure why the US Government thinks it can seize foreign assets. That's not how jurisdiction works.
By adjusting the size and mesoporesâ(TM) proportion of nanoparticles, we can precisely control the original color and vapor-responsive color shift extent of mesoporous CPC. As a consequence, multicolor mesoporous CPCs patterns with complex vapor responsive color shifts or vapor-revealed implicit images are subsequently achieved. The complicated and reversible multicolor shifts of mesoporous CPC patterns are favorable for immediate recognition by naked eyes but hard to copy.
I assume that if you can't come up with the exact size/proportion of nanoparticles, you won't get the same color shifting effect and your counterfeit will not pass as real. It's certainly better than the current security measures which mostly rely on restricting access to the materials and equipment necessary to make fake currency.
