I'd be interested to see if you could post even one example of "lane stradling"(sic) being illegal.
It makes little sense to not allow bikes/motorbikes to overtake/undertake stationary traffic just for the sake of people who might want to carelessly cross the road. It's not difficult to figure out - if there's a line of stationary cars, then be careful of 2-wheeled vehicles when crossing.
I don't think it's a design problem to fit external airbags. It seems that Volvo is the only company that's actually got a real-life example of that, so it's most likely a cost issue rather than a design problem. Most people don't want to pay extra to protect other people.
Pop-up bonnets are an easy to design protective measure, but again, no-one is making them due to the lack of demand. Face it - car drivers are not willing to invest in protecting other people from their own vehicle.
I don't see how that's got anything to do with political affiliation. Most cars are designed to protect the occupants often to the detriment of pedestrians or other road users.
Just look at the design of car bumpers that are almost perfectly designed to maximise pedestrian leg trauma.
'Invoke-WebRequest' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
From a PowerShell:
The term 'Invoke-WebRequest' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.
It doesn't seem likely that suspended animation would be practical over those time periods, so maybe a better bet for deep space travel is to have colony ships. Don't suspend people, just have a community that lives, reproduces, dies etc.
Does that apply to the actions of any children in the house as well? Does that mean that if a kid sent a raunchy selfie to someone using that IP address, the account owner could get prosecuted for producing kiddie porn?
Nope, the problem is with an incompetent provider (MTGox) that never bothered itself with decent security practices.
Here's a car analogy. What if a garage buys two totalled Ford cars and chops and welds them together to make one "good" car out of the wrecks and then I come along to buy it thinking it was a properly built Ford? I'd eventually notice all kinds of problems with the chassis - is that a problem with Fords? Or is the problem with the garage that did such a shoddy job?
Most likely because the mod thought you were wanting to start an argument. If I'd modded you, I'd have gone for Funny or possibly Off-topic depending on what mood I was in. I wouldn't consider your post a troll at all.
Okay, I think you're trying too hard to make your point here. In principle, I'd agree that a lot of government's functions revolve around violence or the threat of violence. However, there's lots of other things that are not.
Community service is not intolerable at all - a lot of people volunteer to do this because they want to help their community and not because they are forced to do so. If you held a gun to my head and forced me to do community service, then it's the gun pointing that's intolerable, not the community service.
Also, fines are not just a function of governments. I've paid fines in the past for not returning a DVD within the agreed period - I don't consider that to be intolerable at all. There's an implied contract in society that to reap some of the benefits you agree to abide by the rules.
Picking up trash or teaching kids to read is not intolerable. Some people actively enjoy doing things like that as they appreciate that the end result is worthwhile.
By the way, drunk drivers are generally prohibited from driving, not from drinking, so you've got your arguments in a twist there and sex offenders are not followed around even if they have been prohibited from certain areas.
Your examples of pointing a gun to someone's head are not realistic as it's incredibly rare (at least in the UK) for the government to threaten death for non-compliance with generally agreed rules of society. You'd be better off with threatening to lock someone in a room - that'd be closer to what could happen.
You seem to be a bit confused. The problems are with MTGox, not with bitcoin itself. Also, aren't the majority of big drug deals conducted in US dollars? AFAIK, bitcoins are only used for relatively small amounts - the shipping containers full of contraband are paid for with real-world currencies.
Also, I'd have to question the logic of only judging a service/product based on its origin, not on its suitability for your needs. You realise that bubble-wrap was first sold as wallpaper, yet I bet you're fine with using it to protect items in transit.

Ah! One of those trick questions.
I reckon you don't buy either car because you're not a model.

Mmmm! Tangy!
Oh. So the neighbours' pets aren't an option for that?
From the supermarket?
What? I can get paid to do that?
Thanks, that works.
I was trying it on an old XP virtual machine and it looks to be version 2 of PowerShell.
Isn't there an easy one-line that would work on XP and above? (i.e. an analog of wget for windows).
Care to provide a simple/one-liner as an example of how to read that link?

Citation needed.
So it doesn't apply to any other unlawful use of the internet?

Eddies, in the space-time continuum.
Ah, is he? Is he?

Now imagine yourself bouncing off the walls trying to pop all the bubbles with a big cheesy grin across your face!

It sounds to me like it's a very safe place. You're going to notice any pickpockets pretty quickly.
...aaand it's gone!
