Its illegal not to stop on the road at those red orthogonal signs that have the word stop written on them. Idiots like you deserve to get creamed, but its unfair that someone will have to live with the fact that they ran over your stupid ass because you refuse to follow the rules of the road due to your arrogance and self entitlement bullshit.
You deserve to get ran over for making such an ignorant response to his.
You're pulling off the road not to 'avoid using an electronic navigation aid'... you're pulling off the road so you don't get turned into road smear because your dumb ass was staring at the GPS rather than the world around you, you ran into traffic and a garbage truck turned you into a very thin smear of blood and guts on the road.
You're entire post validates his point. The problem is that you're head is stuck so far up your own ass, you're utterly missing the simplicity of the world around you.
When you move to a new city, a GPS is the WORST thing you can use to 'learn' the city. This has been proven by multiple studies. GPS is a shitty way to learn since you don't learn, you just follow directions and don't absorb them or the route you took.
Why are you riding your bike in such a shitty environment that you're afraid to stop. That sounds like you're too stupid to make intelligent decisions about your path anyway, so its unlikely technology is going to save your dumbs.
Why should you plan?... Technology doesn't save the ignorant, which is what you are, especially without a plan.
Stopping up hill is a massive ball ache for you? Then I'm 100% certain you should have put your fat lazy fucking ass in a car. The speed you had is of very little use, it takes you the same energy to get up the hill and overcome gravity regardless of speed, anything else you experience is entirely in your head.
In short, all of what you posted is typical trendy idiot biker bullshit.
Because the rating system isn't accurate enough to say for sure that.1 difference is accurate. The ratings are subjective enough that whole numbers are as accurate as you can get reliably.
The point of saying something so obviously stupid as 'the windows' is to quickly weed out anyone who is going to figure out the scam. If you're stupid enough to continue past 'the windows' sort of comments then its likely they can scam you. If you don't continue past that point, they've saved themselves time by not dragging you part of the way through the scam when you figure it out.
They are intentionally targeting that 1% by making it obviously a scam to the other 99%.
Problem is, they are so good at the scam, you didn't even realize they were weeding you out, you just thought you were smarter than them:)
Indeed, looks like AOL finally managed to kill it.
Lets face it, everyone thought this was going to happen years ago when AOL first bought it, its amazing its JUST NOW being shut down, though according to the article it appears to be a profitable business unit and AOL is just shutting it down to cut off its own nose.
I find it funny that americans would find that offensive but at the same time have coppers copping fucking pedestrians because of the clothes they're wearing! or indeed just randomly take blood as it seems.
The same people who raise hell about illegal traffic stops and checkpoints will also raise hell about stop and frisk as well. Neither are acceptable.
You stop because everyone else in the area that knows about the stop sign expects you to stop. You do not have 100% visibility ever. There ARE variables that may rarely exist (such as kids playing) but do, and given the right combination of circumstances, due to no malicious, intentional or accidental, someone gets killed.
Traffic laws not only exist to directly prevent traffic issues, they also exist so everyone is playing by the same set of rules and same set of expectations.
The kid hiding in the pile of leaves just around the corner that you ignored thinks you're going to stop so his ignorant ass jumps out of the leaves, runs into the intersection and you plow over him because he thought you would stop, but you didn't because he surprised you or you didn't notice him in time. Not your fault, but the kid still got ran over because he doesn't think like an adult yet. Thats just an easy one that comes to mind right now, I could make examples with little old ladies and such as well.
Whats funny is that you seem to have some sort of issue with 4 way stops in America, which are not a problem it seems for anyone that lives here, with the exception of selfish jackasses, but those apply to everything so can be ignored for the sake of discussion.
Whats funny though, is that you initially suggested a round about. If you want to see American's fuck something up, watch them on a round-about. They stop and wait for the circle to clear... then get on... I'm not kidding. American's (of which I am one) DO NOT get round a bouts. They keep adding them in this town and they keep making traffic worse and worse because NO ONE will freaking just MERGE into traffic, they all sit and wait for it to clear completely. P Pisses me off to no end.
In todays age, in order to pull you over for swerving, you'd probably need to be seen on their dash cam swerving, and if you weren't seen swerving on they're dash cam, you'd probably get off in court.
Back in the world ruled by law, you are either a POW and entitled to all of the rights under the Geneva Convention OR you are a civilian entitled to all of the rights of a civilian prisoner, in this case, Constitutional rights.
Uhm, no. You have no idea what you're talking about.
When combat starts, and you're actively fighting, you're no longer legally a civilian as far as the Geneva Convention is concerned. You are then either a lawful or unlawful combatant. This is not even a little bit new. Lawful combatants who follow the 'rules' outlined in the convention have protections. Those who do not follow those 'rules', lose pretty much all protections they had.
If you want people to treat you with honor, you have to have honor. If you have no honor, you do not get treated honorably. The US didn't even make these rules up, didn't do anything really special to start doing at gizmo what we are, you just have no actual idea what came out of the Geneva Conventions.
Charging him gives him something he can fight and a reason for another country to get him amnesty.
They'll just wait until he comes back to America in 5 years time or whatever and then do it the instant he steps foot on the ground, without him having any opportunity to get help for it.
When they see the very next transaction after you was by Silk Road... its pretty obvious what happened. Plenty enough to take law enforcement to the next level and get a warrant.
Its already been demonstrated to be useful for building profiles of people. Collect enough hashes and transactions and you can start attaching hashes to actual names and faces. All easy to do, especially for the government.
You're replying to a post about how bit coin can not be used for anything other than speculation... and in the same breath you state that its going to replace existing payment methods...
I really don't think you understand the issue at hand. You aren't buying shit on eBay when the price can change up or down 30% OR MORE in a given day.
The government already regulates it under existing financial regulations.
What makes you think its somehow exempt from laws that effect everything else?
If you'd bother to have ready the article you'd know that everyone is basically saying 'meh, no need to do anything, we just existing laws just fine to deal with this from a legal perspective'.
You're bound by all the same laws and regulations with bit coin as you are with wire transfers and cash. Bitcoin isn't some magical special entity that magically isn't covered under law just because its new.
Like many people, you fail see that Bitcoin does have an intrinsic value: it is a useful medium of exchange. There is a predictable inflationary curve, it is impossible to counterfeit, and there is a low transaction cost.
It provides absolutely no improvement over existing methods of exchanging wealth, and comes with several problems that existing methods don't.
The DH exchange only works if you don't get Man-in-the-Middled. Thats the point. Once the certificate authority is compromised, they can create a cert that makes them appear as the server you think you're supposed to talk to, so you do the DH exchange with their server, so the DH exchange isn't a problem. Then they just make another connection on to the destination which does a whole new DH exchange for keys.
Still works, I use the 'service disconnected' SIT code as the opening to my voicemail message. Pretty much stops spam after the first call. The SIT codes are very timing and tone sensitive, so you need a good recording and to be able to upload a file for your voicemail message rather than trying to record it with the phone mic.

Camera's have changed things a bit.
Legally, they can't. Any sort of wording to the effect would get them thrown out of court.

According to the supreme court, a 'police action' IS a war. So ... in your words, sorry, but thanks for playing, now go read a history book.
If we wanted to just shoot him, we would have done it years ago, and you'd have just enough evidence to know we did it, but not enough to prove it.
We're not stupid, we're not going to make him a martyr to his ignorant fanboys.
If the US really wanted to 'get Assange', they'd have killed him years ago.
Charging him gives him something he can fight and a reason for another country to get him amnesty.
They'll just wait until he comes back to America in 5 years time or whatever and then do it the instant he steps foot on the ground, without him having any opportunity to get help for it.
You must think British cops are really well paid.

Many people that you are referring to are idiots.
They're an investment just like any other commodity or precious metal. Just the same as collecting rare coins. This isn't even a little bit ambiguous.
WHY would you bother with bit coin if you're going to store it in USD. What would be the point, other than being trendy?

I use a digital scope with my Arduino and RaspberryPi projects pretty much every time. Scopes are immensely useful for debugging pulse trains.
