Lack of proper hacker culture
Time for bed, gramps. The war for the freedom of the Internet is over and the bad guys won. All that's left now is a low-intensity insurgency and insurgencies don't play by the rules.
A lack of reflection on the things they demand.
Mass appeal makes or breaks insurgencies. The insurgent needs to move through the people like the fish through water. So yes, cat pictures.
Use of militarized language.You want to change society into something where you give people the impression that whoever has the bigger stick is right?
There is no moment in human history when this has not been true. Even if you have a small stick, you must swing it with panache.
Given that this is the country where such toys are manufactured in the first place, it may be as easy as swapping out one board for another one which is identical in all aspects - except software.
There are men in the pictures, assembling a structure to trundle over the top of the reactor in the background. They no doubt have exposure limits and suitable apparatus but the fact remains that they are standing around it.
played controller for the allied forces, using their more advanced (and presumably harder to track) radars to help guide in planes without their own radars on
So the data-link issue has been resolved.

I think you can drop the "presumably", at least for a few years.
usually flying outside the range of any known air-to-air missile
Wikipedia claims that Vympel R-37 is being sold to Syria...
As I read it, only a few US aircraft have it, though Israel seems to have something similar (or maybe stolen)
I remember reading somewhere that its Israeli form is a mission pod, that it is made by Elisra.
You clearly didn't read the post to which I was responding
True that.
Combined with AWACS to give battle control
What's the status on the F-22 datalink? Has anything changed since May when I last checked?
As for AWACS, I don't really see it mattering. World+dog has some form of it now and there are also long-range anti-radiation missiles good enough to put such aircraft on the run. So, they have shifted to a more defensive role.
Syrian no-fly zone: the place is so dense with antiaircraft defenses that there aren't really enough cruise missiles to do the job and inevitably manned planes have to fly in and take out the targets, putting them at risk
The Israelis seemed to manage just fine. I keep hearing about this Suter thing which is supposed to be the be-all-end-all of EW suites.
Since you know so much, what is the stated Pk of the AMRAAM against uncooperative targets at maximum range? How about the AMRAAM-D?
let's say that it's one F-22 and a dozen F-15s
Let's not, this is not how they are used right now and will never be. You do realize that if you pair up the F-22 with non-stealth planes, the stealth advantage of the flight, as a whole, is nullified, do you not?
Against MiG-23s
What? No credible strategic threat to the US fields those relics.
why launch an anti-ship missile from a submarine when a torpedo can be far more damaging
Dunno. Let's ask the USN, they seem to be fond of putting torpedo-tube-launched Harpoons on their hunter-killer subs.
Maybe it's because missiles are faster and have longer range? Maybe because they can take course corrections in-flight from a different platform (such as, oh, I don't know, some sort of maritime surveillance airplane)?
Let's not forget, this blog entry is here for ME not for YOU, so comments are closed. Yeah. Classy move. But, I have a feeling this is the kind of "talent" the Zuck attracts.

I wish I had mod points to give. Some asshat modded the informative parent post "troll" for some reason.
I would be happy if this was tried in the ICC at The Hague, as what they did was an international crime.
I could settle for an old-fashioned tar&feathering. If their security is as bad as you imply, it should be easy&fun.
But I doubt it.
Get them down where? Why would you not leave them in orbit, build stuff there?

IOW only the track-laying work involved anyone going anywhere near the actual sarcophagus.

The structure is assembled off-site. Fucktard.
Ubiquitous computing is a very exciting program.
And he Kool-Aid tastes delicious.
One does not get rich by snitching. Also, you are very funny.
ending this guy's life for no fucking reason
Lamo is a paid informant. The reason is money.
the initial market for anything produced in space is to use it in space
Yes. We have the makings of a frontier economy. I think finished products will be exported from space way, way before raw materials.
Cool stuff. I kept reading about typhoid survivors who also got rid of various solid tumors in the process.
The cost of bringing something back to earth is peanuts.
It's bad. It's Microsoft-bad. GOOG is fighting to outbid Bing for traffic, and it shows.
Does anyone really think any application that is layered on top of IOS is free from interception?
I, for one, don't.
One other point of contention - the system is based on existing public key crypto. Therefore all messages exchanged are non-repudiable by design.
The chances of anything coming from Mars are a million to one... and still, they've come!

Two at least. Their attention-deficit problem is at least as stringent.

How many AMRAAM-Ds on the F-22? In internal storage mind you, wouldn't want to compromise that stealth advantage.
You know little of which you speak.
