This may well be the case for some phones but I'm not convinced that it it is for all phones. Mind you I'm more than happy with my "dumb" phone and have no interest or use for a "smart" phone - who the fuck knows what they are sending out, off or on.
Turn your phone off when you aren't using it. Do you really have to be contactable 24/7? I suspect not for most people and if your phone is off then you cannot be tracked.
Agreed, there are places in the US that I'd like to visit, but frankly I'd prefer to wait for hours in Nairobi (yes I've done that) than have some officious asshole abuse me or my family. Thanks TSA you have really enhanced the world view of your cuntry oops..... country.
Just as stupid and with the same potential casualties as the fucking morons who think it's a good idea to shine a laser into the cockpit of an aircraft. As previously noted by another poster, most real RC'rs are well aware of their responsibilities, so I can only imagine that this is the work of a complete wanker.
Psychology, sociology, and several other ###ologies will never be sciences. They may use statistical methods (well or badly) but one of the fundamentals of science is that experimental results should be repeatable, and I suppose refutable. They key here is experimental - this is not an experiment, it is data crunching. Sorry, data crunching is not science and never will be (yes it may be a tool of science). This is as bad as the correlation = causality moronic statements that we see frequently.
But Hell, isn't every facility in the USA better at everything than any other focussed facility anywhere else in the word. You obviously haven't studied the US facilities sufficiently - Geeze man get with the fucking program - the USA RULEZ !!! . Yes I live in Australia......(PS I love Parkes and the new "scope" in WA will be mind blowing! )
Science is alive and well in at least the Physics community. Whilst I won't even pretend to understand General Relativity, the questioning of it and discussion about those questions is the true essence of science. facts ->theory->more facts->questions->revised theory.
Beautiful!
I agree. I'm now aged 55 but I remember regular occasions like this from my late teens/early 20's when a solution that I was pondering on in the evening was obvious the next morning after sleep. Was it rest or was it my pea-brain working at it while I "slept". I have no clue, but this was common for me in both Maths and Physics. Does it happen now? Don't know as I'm not in the game of trying to show someone what I know (undergraduate), so I have not for a number of years (decades), had to put it to the test.
I hope this spreads to other countries. What is proposed is a good step that I would support 100% if I lived there. My wife works runs a palliative care ward and the stories she tells me about patients wanting legislation like this are common.
The first computer I saw was a PDP8, donated to the school by the Hydro Electric Commission, the the state electricity generator. What did I learn? That the nerds of the time carried around pockets full of paper tape that did all sorts of useful stuff like a list of the powers of 2. Yes I admit I was a luddite, but several years later I discovered the joys of BASIC programming. What do I do now? Enjoy the fruits of the programming labours of others. I have no interest in programming and am very happy for someone else to take on that poison chalice.
Would not revokation of passport imply that he is no longer a Swedish citizen? Or at least that the Swedish government will not support or help one of their own citizens?
Why is it that any time someone mentions the imperial to metric fuck up they are labelled as trolls or flame-baiters. Geeze the truth really does hurt doesn't it.
is a fucking ratbag who is wealthy enough for the fucking idiots of the media to hang off his every word. He was even given the title of "a queensland gem" or some such utter crap, probably because he is a fat ugly cunt with money and an ego to match.
Agree. For one, a round cornered rectangle (with a rounded back and a touch screen as well) is exactly the shape of my palm z22 which if I recall correctly was from around 2005. Actually a round cornered rectangle with flat sides is exactly the profile of an old HDD sitting on my desk. Frankly design patents are a crock as are software patents.
Except that antibiotics do not kill virii - part of the problem with overuse of antibiotics is the general belief that they help with viral infections. Let me repeat...... antibiotics DO NOT kill virii.
Agreed. As a teacher of pre-tertiary Mathematics I am yet to see the benefit of so called one-to-one in my class, either tablet or laptop or pc. Maybe in a few years when I'm retired tech wil catch up (or teaching AND learning will change), but the technology of pen, paper and calculator cannot be beat. Actually what we are using now has stood the test of more than a few decades: pen paper slide rule, pen paper log tables, pen paper calculator - the calculator has changed but the basic tech of being able to transcribe and do you own working quickly, and easily flick back to some previous example or notes is where fully electronic technology loses out imo.
You just don't get it do you? Of course he needs tools, you tool. Just as you need tools to find that porn so that you can play with your tool - which you are obviously better at than appreciating what someone else has done.

I have found the same with my Canon 60D, the faster cards are worth the money. In addition the "extreme" cards are worth the extra imho

Pacsafe travel goods? Yes I can recommend them. A bit expensive but hey so are my SLR and lenses.

how is this flaimebait? - there is an element of truth in it and the IS person must have been a complete dick.
look at the data you have and formulate a theory. Collect more data. Modify your theory. SCIENCE!!

A lot of people that I know in oz are thinking just this.
Thank you for demonstrating your superior knowledge and use of the English language.

and unfortunately a win for the nutters who say that we (the earth) are the only life made by God.
