    They're blowing up OUR airplanes because WE'RE in THEIR countries.

    If we stop extending our police state beyond our borders, we'd be a lot safer.

    The motivations AND the actions are so far overboard as to be psychotic. We've paid trillions of dollars to blow up people IN THEIR OWN COUNTRY. GTFO of their country and they won't be so pissed.

    True, but if there are water treatment plants that can handle four orders of magnitude more than what the GGP was asking for, I'm sure a radioactive processor would be fine at his levels.

    The East Bay Municipality has waste treatment plant that can hit 375 million gallons per day.

    http://www.ebmud.com/water-and-wastewater/water-quality/water-treatment

    That's ( 375 M x 8 pound/gallon x 1 ton/2000 pounds) = 1,500,000 tons per day.

    Or 62,500 tons per hour.

    Or 1,041 tons per minute.

    I don't think you realize what modern water treatment plants are capable of.

    That's not a remotely typical prison.

    I'd like to know when the Germans thought they had control over the operating system.

    https://www.bsi.bund.de/DE/Presse/Pressemitteilungen/Presse2013/Windows_TPM_Pl_21082013.html

    4th paragraph translated through google:

    "From the perspective of the BSI, the use of Windows 8 in combination with a TPM 2.0 is accompanied by a loss of control over the operating system and the hardware used. This result for the user, especially for the federal government and critical infrastructure, new risks. In particular, on a hardware, which is operated with a TPM 2.0, with Windows 8 caused by accidental errors of the hardware or operating system manufacturer, is also the owner of the IT system error conditions that prevent further operation of the system. This can cause such an extent that in case of error in addition to the operating system and the hardware used is permanently no longer be used. Such a situation would not be acceptable for the federal nor for other users. In addition, the newly established mechanisms can also be used for sabotage of third parties. These risks need to be addressed."

    I don't think you've read the same history books as me then.

    The colonists did not conduct themselves according to the then-accepted conventions of war. Not lining up, hiding in the bushes was their advantage. It was the guerrilla warfare of the time.

    Do you remember the famous painting of Washington crossing the Delaware? That was during a night invasion. Which was also not the then-accepted conventions of war.

    Really? Saying it can be done is not saying it's easy.

    You read way too much into that. Which is your issue.

    And I have plenty of responsibilites. Renting house on the other side of the country, while changing jobs to get one that gives me the right work/life balance, kid in the hospital for a week that insurance left me with a $10k bill.
