True, but the error is additive, and any other errors in the pipeline stack up.
Pretend for a minute that the munition has a 6 meter kill zone. Say you have a tracking tech that's accurate to 10 meters. Likely anyone in that +/- 10m area is going to be very sorry even if they don't get dead right away.
Now, introduce another 10 meter inaccuracy. This means that you can be anywhere from bullseye to 20 meters away. The odds have suddenly gone from "most likely dead" to "more likely unharmed" - not a desired result! This is a recipe for failed strikes and collateral damage.
... and can safely climb a 200' tower without significant risk of killing yourself...
Yea. Not for everyone, even those that don't mind heights. Climbing a tower is NOT the same as climbing a wall, or looking over the edge of a skyscraper roof...
You know, the whole plastic surgery thing could have been him trying to hide from the disease.
Which stands out more: Micheal Jackson as we knew him, or someone who as all the normal physical traits of a race but a completely different skin tone? If you were ashamed/bothered by it, you might well go to what others appear as as extremes because of it. Welcome to psychology.
I'm not going to comment either way about the whole kid thing etc. That all has no bearing on the above.

I do speak from experience when I say that a weapon serves no purpose other than to kill. You're deluding yourself if you think it serves another purpose...
Bull. Your viewpoint biases you to that.
I, and many others, enjoy using their firearms without so much as ever pointing it at a living creature.

Sounds like his symptoms were closer to that of a stroke victim.
Makes sense, considering the type of damage a stroke causes would be similar to that which he experienced.

Oh sure, let me wire that bastard into the main feed outside.
Oh wait.
This may have been a better link.
Huh. Relistening, I -still- hear Eddie. But this isn't the first time I've heard lyrics get murdered in pronunciation for the sake of the sound :P
spice -> neodymium
... and the huge expensive airfreight hauler can get you there faster and with more cargo than either :P
Annie? Annie doesn't have a hard "d" in the middle of it!?
Oh, so you've already got a hand on and benchmarked these new chips?
No, you haven't. We'll have to see.
It doesn't have to be rational... come on. You know how people can get fucked up self-views quite easily and then go do stupid shit because of it.
You realize that they have to -gain- from making us look bad, and /not/ proving it?

OMG! Eddie, are you ok?
... and seconds after I post this, I get it. Durr.
I love the if/else :D

Interesting, because I had no idea that anecdotes are valid data points in the scientific method!

It's kind of hard to kill circles drawn on paper!
It's only a world war if the world gets involved.
If everyone stands back and lets the middle-east glass itself, that's not a world war.
Not saying it wouldn't be a catastrophe, but just sayin' it wouldn't be WWIII.
Unless someone decides to nuke a superpower for some (retarded) reason in the fray.
... and you honestly think that isn't already happening?
I'm going to jump in with the "smarter people than us are already working on it" crowd that usually heckles armchair-$JOBs in scientific articles.
Well, I guess my point was that you'll be able to get your stuff off, so it's not like caitsith01 made it out to be.
Sure, it would have been nice of them to send emails out. Perhaps they will once they get the solution up.
All said and done, this really does suck.
Yea, and guess what? When someone breaks into $LAME_PHP_CODE and runs something, that something is running locally, no?
Dammit.
A rootkit and a backdoor are two completely different things. A rootkit can include a backdoor, but not the other way around.
They usually go hand-in-hand in an intrusion, but rootkits are a relatively new occurance whereas backdoors are not.
Yea... you go get yourself a copy of Independence War and try that. I'll wait here for you, it won't be long...
and, since you failed to say so, I should mention you download the game (via the WoW/SC2 download system) and never have to even look at a CD.
Same thing for Diablo II and Warcraft 3.
