    The GP post thought of aliens as super-efficient machines triving to mazimize gains from expenses.This doesn't work in real life.
    I bet there enough stupid redneck aliens out there that come just to laugh at us.And if resources are plentiful why not waste some for fun?
    Aliens are likely to view this is justifying the expenses,at least some.

    Those treaties have an exception for domestic usage?! I can be sure about its usage,but why a riot/protest/self-defense has exemption from chemical weapons.
    Either its fails to be considered a chemical weapon(the treaties deem it a chemical weapon as you said) or its illegal.No third option here.

    As with memes someone responsible for most of
    content while others replicate the message.
    Its basis of any ideology,religion and philosophy.
    If you "believe in laws of physics" you replicate the information which you gathered from a source of those laws of physics(that would be a school textbook in most cases).In cases these laws change,(newton gravity to einstein curved spacetime ),the sources get updated and you replicate the new information,because it supersedes the old.Religion is the same as above just sources stay more stable over time and don't abide logic or consistency.
    Ideology is in between religion and science but has incredibly fast transmission rate and all the power of religion.
    Philosophy develops slower but has more influence,lasts longer and is much advanced:
    Social dialogs progress from religion(theosophical dispute) to ideology(e.g. communism) and end in philosophy(humanism),(or adopt science as ideology,e.g. technologism,empiricism).

    Now protests are ideology,distilled into crowds:
    They don't understand it all,right,but they make the protest visible.They replicate the message.Groupthink is whats helps the sources of ideology to talk with power.

    Without the masses,small protest by several people can't gather attention,or concern.Mass Protests amplify the message.

    Lets imagine you have compiled an ideology and reasoning to protest,but lack friends and social skills.If you protest alone it will be no more then pathethic,and insignificant event:It will not be noticed,reported or create sympathy with your cause.You need people.

  23. Re:Now this is disturbing on Millimeter-Wave Weapon Certified For Use In Iraq · · Score: 1

    The benefits of protests without permit to democracy are greater then harm done by the protests.Its against common sense to leave the power to deny protest to the goverment.
    Its the point of most protests,that they speak
    AGAINST authority.The same authority which issues permits,ID cards,etc.
    Hope you get the point.

  25. Re:not good news on Internet Archive Gets DMCA Exemption · · Score: 1

    Stealign software should be called unlicensed copying.There is no theft,no one is deprived of property,it not vandalised,and not broken.
    Its illegality stems from the fact the company patented the ways 0's and 1's can be recorded in a medium in a particular way,which happens to be their product.That "patent" grant them and them only ability to produce the product,just by "stealing software" i.e. making another copy,and they can do so ad infinitum(ignoring medium costs ,transport and work) getting as much profits as they like.
    I call that THEFT when they make money from nothing but intellectual property.
    They steal your money for worthless copies of their product,which they price to gain enormous profits.Microsoft steals billions this way,and the disk stamping en masse never comes to rest.
    Cheap disks,economy of scale and they all magically gain extra 600$ in value by being imprinted with MS crap.Thats fairy tales industry wants to tell.
    The disks themselfs,files,and copies of them are identical.Thats why content creators struggle to identify each disk:Serial numbers,passwords,CD-keys,SecuROM and the like(artificially creating pockets of uniqueness,inventing the "geniune copy").In the end they effort will prove to be useless.
    Either the protections will be broken or their product will be ignored(in favor of less crippled products).
