So until something that is already demonstrably possible, clearly worthwhile, and very well understood is spotted in the wild, it's safe to assume they don't exist? That's not really how security works...
It's not a system of belief, it's the result of a system of learning which logically concludes the vehement assumption of the existence of something without any evidence is irrational.
Does Turing deserve special treatment? Yes, he's a war hero and did a phenomenal amount for the modern world, but his suffering is just as harrowing as the suffering felt by thousands more, yet because they didn't have the ability to create computers as we know them, they are resigned to being second-class gays? That reeks of exactly what we're trying to stamp out, surely...
But they're saying that it won't do any good, just make a bunch of people alive today, who were not affected by what Turing went through, feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Having this stark reminder that what we, today, feel is very righteous can be perceived as abhorrent even a generation or two later, is surely going to serve as a much better warning for those making and supporting laws today.
The world must be a scary place for you, what with logic apparently not existing and words meaning anything you seem to want them to mean. You might want to sit the next few plays out while the adults are talking.
Riiight - Obamacare is exactly like that. You ignorant parroting ass. You didn't even make it past one point without lying.
GM paid back its loan, with interest.
The unions are a massive part of the country, unless you think "the country" just means the more wealthy people. I'd love to see how well you'd live your life if all the people currently represented by unions ceased to be represented. You'd fucking shit yourself.
Not all users. There will be some who have issues, and some of those issues can be pretty serious (just like on Windows). Let's not pretend Ubuntu is "perfect software" - it isn't. Nothing is.
Hi! I'm a person who has done that with Windows. I have a 32GB USB key fob on my keys all the time, which is a bootable Windows 7 setup disk. Plug it in, 40 minutes later a bloatware-free, working system. I've used it a bunch, and it works fine. But let's just pretend that doesn't happen, so you can carry on with your fun;) and I'm not being a dick, I thought you might want to know.
It doesn't, though. No GPS, just course network-base location (for their ads, no doubt), phone info for personalisation. So yes, they're using it for the adverts that make the game free to have. Don't want it? Don't click "install".
Why have a soldier run up? Because his 25 concealed buddies on the other side of the hill are going to fire their guided-flechettes over said hill and annihilate whatever the laser is pointing at:)
But yes, I agree - as with any and all laser designations, the ease of designation means it is a task that can be employed by anything controllable (be it animal or machine) that can have a laser pointer taped to it.
No, the control logic and fins are steering the bullet, which is guided by the laser, just as sailors of old were guided by the stars, but steered by their rudders and sails.
No, that metric really is of little consequence, unless you believe that everyone is willing/able to pay for the game in the first place, which is patently false. People frequently don't decide whether they're pirates or not, that usually is forced on them, or is intrinsic in their nature. Either way the number of "lost sales" logically has to be far fewer than we're made to believe by RIAA/MPAA. The only thing that the company has to be concerned about is how many loyal customers they can make, and how many they can keep by not being assholes.
People don't need the article to justify "piracy" (by which I think you meant copyright infringement) - logic and plenty of case studies do a great job of that already.
Your butthurt over imaginary lost sales (or whatever nonsensical hurt you perceive) is ridiculous.

No, it's one basic aspect of the pragmatic approach to security.
So until something that is already demonstrably possible, clearly worthwhile, and very well understood is spotted in the wild, it's safe to assume they don't exist? That's not really how security works...
It used to be possible to jailbreak an iPhone/iPod using a single website, so I guess your "No they don't" is not as certain as you might imagine.

And confusing an atheist with someone like Mao is fucking retarded. He wanted to be God, and made that come true.

Japan != "pacific theater".

Correlation != causation, you dumb racist fuck. Think for a change.

A virtuoso is just a very good musician. That's the only difference.

That sounds more like a dictatorship than anything else...
Whatever the fuck that meant/means/will mean.
You: Overreacting greatly.
Indeed, they can even sell a million albums and end up owing money to the record company.
