well, they didn't actually do that, they captured a guy who hosted links to copyright infringers. which is surely just as bad as pulling the trigger on Oswald's rifle
by what brain fart did you arrive at that conclusion from DOJ bragging about arrest of a guy who was NOT hosting any infringing content on any of his websites?
entertainment cartel scum with gov thugs in their pocket is all this is
Survey meters in the nuke industry don't work by geiger tube, those become saturated and then give a very LOW reading as the tube needs recovery time after a discharge - dangerously misleading! The conversion of counts to milirem depend on energy and type of particle and sensitivity of tube type but roughly for "common" situations might be 1000 counts/minute = milliREM/Hour. So no geiger is going to detect say the 2.5 REM/ Hour that in one hour puts you over the federal limit for a nuke worker's entire YEAR, it would just saturate since that's over 13 million counts per minute
The usual survey meters use ion chambers or scintillation, the ion chamber with high range get into the nuclear disaster/war fallout range of several to thousands of REM per hour. Geiger can't do that.
geigers are used for "contamination monitors", in other words radioactive dust or dirt on you that you wouldn't want to ingest
nope, not in the nuclear power industry. they just call it a "radiation detector". Its range is far too limited to be survey meter. five counts per second usually is considered a micro Sievert per hour.
geiger counters are for prospecting uranium or finding contaminated dust on yourself. what you want is a survey meter. Your cell phone will fail at about 5 thousand rad, your body at about a fifth of that in chronic dose.
wrong, "kinetic kill weapons" of the types human could use have very low yield, heinlein for example miscalculated horribly.
a government with global projection of power and on the path of empire building factors in sanctions since they'll be making wars of choice for resources and power. hmmmm, sound like the current path of any superpower you know?
correct, and there are good people who are farmers. I still have other friends and relatives who are farmers that don't fit the stereotype of the parent poster
nonsense, space travel can not be profitable for the next 100 years but must be subsidized by government. someone will get the contracts. Musk is pissing away money, Tesla doesn't make a profit
blue. my grandparents and back on both sides were farmers. they were honest generous people who helped others in need. take your hate speech, write it on cardboard, fold it up and stick it up your ass
Wrong, we have not had manned exploration of another world for over four decades. Almost all tech for the space program was developed for unmanned flights, before and after the moon program.
The argument for manned space flight at this point in time is an idiotic one, only in the far future could there ever be any kind of benefit. The way we support human life at the present is too primative, prolonged habitation of any space craft or the ISS causes massive damage to the human body. It's not the right way

extradition for those who didn't infringe copyright but merely had links to alleged copyright infringers? wow, how meta

50 percent of experts agreed with that. The other 50 percent were too busy publishing studies to answer the survey.

CLV, CAV or CAA? I don't want to buy the wrong thing
this couldn't possibly be to call them when they're not on base?

now too since some of grandparents kids and grandkids (uncles, aunts, cousins) are still farmers

any country can lay claim to the moon, if they have the military might to keep it
words on paper won't stop a government that decides to pursue that path
Wrong, it is an agency of the executive branch of the government of the United States

We don't have capitalism, we have government in the pockets of large corporations trying to make everything they do legal by definition
why don't we just substitute "jew" for "farmer" in what you posted? or "nigger sports superstar" or "chink jewelry store owner"?
I always thought it would be better to enable people to create wealth than to hand it to them.
social programs == mostly making people be parasites
