So basically we're talking about weed here, right? Those dominoes are falling.
My main objection to the process I went through to get my TS was the fucking "lie detector" test. Junk science is going to tell them if I'm "solid" or not? Please.
Read the reviews... Beats might be the Hipster headphone du jour, but on the quality vs price curve, it doesn't work out. Sure, if you want to look "hip" and "happin'n" and "young, dumb, and full of cum", buy Beats. Or you could buy a decent pair of headphones.
The real question is how low will Timothy go to place Product Placement AstroTurf on the Slashdot front page... And how many of his Flying Chimps will he call in to mod me down?
I don't know enough about the technical parameters to just google an answer to my concerns
With search engines, you simply start out with a simple "global" question, and narrow it down. If you can't ask the "big question" and narrow it down based on search results, that you really don't know what you're asking in the first place.
This is one of the stupidest ask slashdots ever, and they are almost all incredibly stupid.
This trend is not just with the "Ask Slashdot". Dice decided that they wanted to expand the Slashdot Audience to the variety store magazine rack PCmeg crowd - Slashdot Beta is a part of that project. It's all about maximizing page-views before flushing the whole thing down the toilet.
Just musing out loud that a mission planner apparently never been on a mission himself.
Ah, but you have no idea what kind of jet I plan for (or for that matter if it's even a jet, because before now, I haven't said), or what my background with the Air Force is.
For example, it is very possible that before retiring from the US Air Force, I could have been an Engineer on the C-141 and then a Loadmaster on the C-17 after the C141 went away (the C-17 does not have Engineers, computers took care of that). It's very possible that through that experience, I have a great deal of knowledge that applies directly to C-17 mission planning. It's possible that in addition to my database experience post-Active Duty Air Force, I spent a significant amount of time in various capacities with the Operations Group with a particular Reserve Wing before moving to Active Duty Current Operations (otherwise known as the "Barrel") as a civilian on the Active Duty side.
Quite frankly, your comments show your complete ignorance about how flying wings operate, how missions are generated, and the different pieces that fit into the mission planning pie.
I know you're trying to imply I'm full of shit, but you're only making yourself look more like a completely ignorant idiot. Such is to be expected from "Anonymous Cowards" such as yourself.
according to the ruling, which I have read most of, you would have to prove the data on the phone would be an imminent threat, which is impossible to do
Here's what will go down:
We had a "reasonable" suspicion that data on this phone would reveal plans for heinous crime to be carried out imminently, your Honor...
And the judge will allow the search and seizure.
Folks, illegally obtained evidence is allowed after the illegal search all the time . It is *VERY* rare for a judge to throw out evidence that was illegally obtained.
Why do the neighbors take exception to it, though? How does it affect the neighbors if someone else messes up their lawn and flower bed?
That's like asking, "Hey, what's the problem with letting the garbage pile up, having 6 cars up on blocks, and well, that heavy traffic from my crack sales? it's not in your yard..."
Sure I don't expect 2000 permanent full time jobs, but injecting $2 billion into a community ain't so shabby
The problem with your argument is that "2 BILLIOB" *WILL NOT* be "injected" into the Local Economy. Much of the design, contracting, and building supplies will come from elsewhere.
Sure, there are the shit wages that will be paid to the Paper Factory Serfs, but just about everything else will come from elsewhere. And by all means, let's not discount jobs in the South that pay little more than Dairy Queen...
For the majority of consumers in the first world. If you ever traveled more than 10 miles from your house you might find that other people live differently than you do. A 10 year old TV in some communities in India is a luxury!
Been all over the world, Mr. Elitist Asshole.
But as it happens this discussion *is about* "first world" e-trash, so put your head out of your ass.
My current main television is about 10 years old, and I bought it used two years ago to replace another that was 14 years old and needed an expensive repair.
You are not the "norm". For the majority of consumers 2 years old is obsolete.

Jesus, shut the fuck up. It's assholes like you that drive people away from Wikipedia.

Walmart sells iPhone 5c for $29 and 5s for $99. The last time I checked, Walmart was NOT the supplier of choice for hipsters.
Clearly, Wal-mart is not where Hipsters buy their Apple lifestyle accessories. For example, where did you buy yours?
I'm somewhat surprised to see the parent comment modded down to -1.
"You must be new here."
Would you like some "Hot Grits" scraped off of Natalie Portman's ass with your helping of crow?
In Soviet Russia, YOU fuck Timothy up the ass.
I welcome our new robotic headphones...
And of course the solid standard Goatse...
- Thank you, I'mm be here until I die, please tip your waitress.
if you want the cool headphones you gotta give up your Android.
Yes well, of course the Hipsters wouldn't be caught dead paying tunes through anything but Apple...
buy Beats

I've been fucking your mother, and we've been talking about throwing you out of the basement so we can make it into a sex dungeon. What do you think?
Man, people were probably murdered in your state this week that weren't reported in your local news. That doesn't make it a media conspiracy.
I've been fucking your mother, and we've been talking about throwing you out of the basement so we can make it into a sex dungeon.
Does no fly zones apply to objects lacking a motor or engine?
Try it and find out?
On a different note, I notice that absolutely no national news (besides Wired) is covering this, so what's the point?
By the way, yes, I very possibly had enough time to do these things, as I joined the Air Force in 19-fucking-85.
Have a nice day.
Part of me is happy to see NASA doing this kind of development.
On the other hand, I suspect that some version of SpaceX's Dragon will carry men into space long before Orion.

Air Force mission planner huh? So you have multi-engine jet ticket? At least 1,000 hour in high performance aircrafts?
I said mission planner. Not pilot. Clearly you are an idiot.

But if you want, Frosty Piss, tell us what job you do?
I used to be a Database Admin. But for the last 8 years, I've been a mission planner for the US Sir Force.
I'm not sure what this has to do with your argument, though.

This is what you get for living in an overpriced shit-hole like SF.

As essentially a paid review publication, "ComputerWorld" ceased being worth paying money for long ago.
Plus in this you don't have to wear stifling leather clothing, and you can drive in the rain without getting soaked.
I think there is a market for this.

And it doesn't require touchy gyros, can fit a passenger, and a little bit of cargo.
