"An illness with such a high mortality rate is self limiting. It could very well die out quicker in areas with no health care than in areas with health care."
" there's a general expectation that things work more or less the same everywhere. Sure, there are still some cultural differences between large regions, but the US isn't 13 distinct colonies any more."
Then why stop at the national level? Why not create a global government. We could call it the New World Order.
Oh, and he seems to be a frequent blogger (over 1300 posts, going back to May), including bragging about the real AN-26 which was shot down on 14 July.
LOL. If fake, how was the detailed post, which included pictures, created before the crash was publicly known, and why was it taken down so quickly? Also, you've cited no references for your claim. Given that 2 weeks ago the Donetsk People's Republic claimed to have captured Buk missiles, and today they claimed to have none, their integrity is quite suspect.
Also, there's this tweet from Igor Girkin (Strelkov), Commander of the insurgents, made shortly after the plane was shot down.
A Google translation gives this:
"In the area Torrez just downed plane An-26, lying somewhere in the mine" Progress. "
Also warned - do not fly in "our sky."
And here is the confirmation of the next video "ptichkopada."
Bird fell for waste heap, the residential sector is not caught. Civilians are not injured.
And also have information about the second downed aircraft, like the Su. "
DONETSK, June 29,/ITAR-TASS/. Self-defence forces of the Donetsk People's Republic have taken control over a missile defence army unit equipped with Buk missile defence systems, the press service of the Donetsk People's Republic told Itar-Tass on Sunday.
So, they apparently did have "that kind of hardware." Of course, today they're claiming they don't.
ITAR-TASS (Russian state owned) reported eyewitness claims that "Militiamen of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People's Republic (DPR) brought down a military transport Antonov-26 (An-26) plane of the Ukrainian Air Force on the outskirts of the town of Torez..."
Given that the geographic area is predominantly occupied by separatists ("eyewitnesses"), and the speed with which the report got to Russia, that report may be a "smoking gun," almost literally.
So, your plan is that former_sysadmin@sony.com makes the change. OK, but how is keeping track of what emails need redirection when an employee arbitrarily changes more reliable than keeping track of when registrations expire, which is known well in advance? Is it somehow easier to remember to grep email accounts for "dns@example.com" than to query a database for "domain_expiration<90days?"
See the difference? One places responsibility for a mission critical function on an external party, and the other doesn't, it fixes the process.
Why not just have responsible_group keep track of registrations on a regular basis, and renew them when necessary. You do know that registrars aren't required to email anyone about pending expirations (most/all do, though), so nothing you can do with emails will really fix the process? Really, if a company can't take responsibility for tracking and renewing their registrations, they deserve to lose them. If you can't keep track of expiration dates, you've likely lost the security info required to renew, too.
It still requires tracking and making changes. It's easier to change the local email system than a registrar's database, but in either case, updates must be made to be effective. With 10 year registrations available, there's no guarantee that former_group_members@example.com is much better than former_employee@example.com, especially in fast moving industries. If company X acquires company Y, dns@y.com is apt to be forgotten, too.
You're suggesting a tactical solution to a process issue. Better to have the responsible group track and update necessary renewals on a regular basis, instead of depending on notifications from external parties being received.
Odd, that regulating Interstate Commerce, the rarely used legitimate purpose of the Commerce Clause, should be criticized as an extension of government power.
Also strange that your criticism is completely ass-backwards, since the request was that states not be able to exclude competition, and the status quo is what you're complaining about.
MoeBalls is more unique. But if you have enough SSIDs, the intersection of them can give a unique location even if each individual one can be found in many locations.
It would also require notching out the TDWR frequencies, instead of allowing them to be used with DFS. I suppose someone could create a fuse controlled radio chip which could be used worldwide, and fuses blown during manufacturing to limit the hardware as required, but somehow I don't think the market is big enough for that to happen anytime soon.

Beer FTW! Then you're only renting the water.
What's a "virii?" The plural of virus is viruses. Even if it took the latin form (and it certainly doesn't), it would be viri, not virii.
"An illness with such a high mortality rate is self limiting. It could very well die out quicker in areas with no health care than in areas with health care."
That worked out really well with bubonic plague.
Ernestine, is that you?
"Except that Smallpox is not a WMD, so "weaponized" smallpox is not a deadly disease "
Whoosh.
The most effective weapons don't kill, but make the opponent expend resources which might otherwise be used in the battle.

It's not twitter, it's VKontakte. I should have said "blog" when I said "tweet," but that's obvious from the link.

So you don't know. The name of the comic strip refers to Mike Doonesbury, a principle character in the strip.
So, they apparently did have "that kind of hardware." Of course, today they're claiming they don't.
I'm not the one quoting a comic strip. And Doonesbury is a "who."

The US wouldn't be its own country if the founders hadn't valued rights above peace.

Whoosh. That only make it easier. It doesn't fix the process, which still requires tracking and making changes to make it effective.
So, forward domain_registration@sony.com to former_employee@sony.com. Let us know how that works out for you.
Odd, since the US has said that US laws do apply to Noriega, even when the person and crime are not on US soil.

Do you get your coffee from the Urban Coffee Lounge or the Starbucks before going to Juanita Beach Park, there in Kirkland, WA?
Nope, no relation to reality whatsoever.
