Again, folks, nothing you post on Facebook is private. Nothing. Seriously, there are simply ***NO*** privacy issues with Facebook, because nothing on Facebook is private.
The rule is simple: If you want to maintain privacy, don't post your "private" material on Facebook or any other "social networking" web site.
Iran is not Iraq. They have a western standard of living, despite your ignorance of the region.
So you *agree* that Iran gets most of its advanced technology know-how from China and Russia? Than't what I said.
Saying that Iran does not posess the technological ability to "clone" the drone does not at all address your statement that Iran enjoys a "western standard of living" which, by the way, is bullshit.
Certainly Iran is *not* a "third world" country, but suggesting that they have the ability to copy US stealth technology without help from China or Russia is pure bullshit.
Assuming the drone was recovered intact, which it might not have been...
You have seen the pictures? Basically intact, though the wings seem to have been detached.
It is highly unlikely Iran can do much cloning of it and gain knowledge that they don't have already, other than perhaps its shape or maybe get some idea of the engines... but RC aircraft have been around for ages, and there isn't that much in the way of fundamental differences between a RC aircraft with a camera and a drone.
Iran probably does not have the technical knowledge to do much more than clone the shape. But their friends in China and Russia are probably already all over it looking at optics and paint...
I'm expecting Iran to make picture with a number of drones positioned ready to take off, all oddly looking identical and appearing at the exact same angle to the camera... perhaps with strange smoke trails.
Absolutly. Done with pirated Photoshop, of course...
No, troll, because I think they not have the the technical knowledge and manufacturing ability to "clone" these aircraft, and their friends in China and Russia do.
You are aware, are you not, that Iran gets *most* of its advanced technology from... China and Russia?
When will Iran apologize to humanity? You know, for things like sentencing Salman Rushdie to death?
I used to suffer from insomnia. But Salman Rushdie has helped me achieve a better sleep. Every time I pick up one of his books, I find myself dozing off rapidly...
Whats wrong with requiring tech people to be licenced, we require it of doctors, lawyers, teachers, police need a warrant..so why not IT tech workers.
Quality of service in not why they want to regulate people that work with computers. It's a matter of controlling communication, repressing opposition views.
Derek Van Gorder and Otto Stockmeier? WHO? The real reason that their film will be shot entirely without CGI or green screens is more likely that they can't afford CGI.
It's *not* the CGI, it's the tripe that producers and directors *DO* with it.
The sad thing is to hear people bitch about the raising cost of a First Class letter - sent *ANYWHERE* for how much? 50 cents or so? Oh yeah, that's WAY out of line...
People, the US Mail is a *service* to the public, there's no way it can every pay for itself and still move mail at the current rates. We fund this *service* with tax money, *not* postage.
I'm not sure you understand what "sovereignty" means. It means if you have your own country, it's your garage, not anyone elses.
Nobody lives in this world alone, we all have neighbors. Iran's neighbors include the rest of the world.
There are limits as to what you can do in *your* "garage", and those limits are what ever the majority of your neighbors say you can do. Your neighbors have banded together and decided that you can not build and operate a meth lab in your garage. Beyond the public policy about drugs, operating a meth lab is dangerous not just to the operators but also the neighbors. There are laws, and you can't do it.
Iran's neighbors - the rest of the world - have decided that certain activities related to building nuclear bombs is not allowable. No amount of "sovereignty" changes this. No amount of blather from Libertarian Tea Baggers changes this.
Nuclear bomb building is not allowed.
Eliminating Iran's ability to build nukes will make the world a safer place. Sooner or later, things *will* come to a head, and Iran will have to be dealt with, and it's likely to involve military action.
Not the same at all (did not have the potential to kill half the world), and indeed a long time ago in quite another state of common belief - the *fact* is that biological warfare / experimentation like the Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment simply would not be done by most governments.
But, they might very well be done by unhinged nut jobs like Saddam Hussein, who did in fact use biological weapons against Kurds and others that he had issues with. Do you suppose that there is a chance that Mahmoud Ahmadinejad might be similarly unhinged?
It's not far out of realistic speculation that folks "on a mission from god" - as most so-called "terrorists" are - would find this extremely attractive.
Certainly we can not keep this knowledge from dedicated whack-jobs forever. But why make it easier for them?
Toy Story was released in 1995. Wasn't the internet age already underway at that point?
In the same way that I fucked your mother about eight months ago, and she's ready to pop... Which is to say in 1995 the Interwebs were all covered in afterbirth. Which is to say very very new, and so only at the very very very begetting of the "Interweb Age"...
Campgrounds serve a number of different purposes to different people. And the degree to which one wants to "get back to nature" depend on the individual. Wi-Fi is certainly well within the modern concept of a campground.
And why, if you're all into the get-back-to-nature thing to the degree that you seem to be pontificating, why are you at a campground at all? I mean with all those modern conveniences like, you know, hot showers and fulshable shitters? And what about that pay phone?
By the way, why not log in and pontificate your tripe with your user name? Afraid of something?
Slashdot Mirror
Advertising. If it wasn't for the name change no one would have heard about the lawsuit and no one would have gave a shit if they did hear.
And now that they know he's an idiot and an asshat and that Facebook (worth BILLEEEEEEEEEONS) has him in their sights, this will attract business?
Just another spammer (and probably failed pornographer) looking to make money without working.
Move on...

As does the US, well, at least from China.

Because you think they live in caves?
No, troll, because I think they not have the the technical knowledge and manufacturing ability to "clone" these aircraft, and their friends in China and Russia do.

Iran simply does not have the ability - the technical knowledge and manufacturing ability - to "clone" these aircraft.
More likely is that China and / or Russia have already sent a team to take it apart and learn its secrets.
I mean, really. What do these people think it will do, besides *restrict* technological innovation?
And that is exactly the point of the law. Islam seeks to live in the past where individual freedoms are dangerous to the group think.

Yes, but did she look like a good fuck in a hotel room after a few highballs at the bar following her seminar talk? How big are her BOOBS?
I'm envious of anyone who actually understands anything the summary is talking about.
Why not send the games scores as XML and let me create...
I'm sorry, did you say "let me create"? Game scores are valuble proprietary IP . Like hell you'll get the raw feed...

The point was, paraphrased, "We can trust the US gov't." Tuskegee show otherwise.
Apples and oranges.
But even so, we don't live in the same times as that experiment. Such a thing could not be undertaken today.
Inability to see this is simply paranoia.
Which means they are unrelated
No, it doesn't.
Three words: Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment.
Not the same at all (did not have the potential to kill half the world), and indeed a long time ago in quite another state of common belief - the *fact* is that biological warfare / experimentation like the Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment simply would not be done by most governments.

Ahhh yes... You mother...
Same with nuclear: New designs are safe designs.

AC originally planned for a massive shit rather then at the frosty piss that emerged.
I can confirm that this is so.
I started putting those at the very bottom of the pages...
That's where everyone else was already putting the Google Anylitcs code. That's where Google suggests you put it...
It's a service like any other that Google offers: If it's not useful to *YOU*, don't use it on your site.
There are alternatives, but they too effect load time.
If you make a significant $$ off of AdSense, Google Analytics can be very useful.
Just like no one is forcing anyone to post gobs of personal stuff on Facebook, no one is forcing Webmasters to use Google Anything
Are you sure they are Chinese bombs? Perhaps they are UFO crash landings?
ISPs have fought back against being branded common carriers, but they aren't any different in principle to phone companies.
Maybe not "in principle", but in fact of law, yes, cable and ISP are not "common carriers". And that's what counts.
