Corrado told the crowd that they initially had no plans to attend DefCon but decided to enter the contest 19 days earlier after a "business plan" they devised fell through.
"We were going to war-drive around Cincinnati and find unencrypted wireless access points," Corrado said. "We knocked on people's doors and asked if (they) wanted us to encrypt them, and they just got all freaked out. So we were searching for other things to do with the equipment we had just purchased."
Great Strike of 1877, ~100 citizens killed by federal troops
Ludlow Massacre 1914, 20 killed by agents with implicit government approval (perpetrators were never prosecuted)
I'm sure there are others, the early labor-corporation battles were often violent, with the government almost always either helping or not hurting the companies. So sure, the US has killed far fewer of its own people, but it has still shown a willingness to do so at times.

Stop putting people in jail for smoking a joint or sending spam.
Dude, nobody has gone to jail yet for spam. (I haven't been keeping track, maybe it's one or two. Doesn't change the argument.)
Three quarters of a million people were arrested for marijuana posession last year alone.
Sending spammers to jail will not add any noticeable stress on the system for quite some time, if ever. What percentage of the population is likely to engage in spamming, compared to the number likely to engage in pot smoking, or even violence? Right.
and don't forget the IRS... if you don't get your paperwork exactly right, you've just committed a bureaucratic crime, and damned if you can even get them to tell you exactly what the problem is.
tis not really scorn but laughing at the unintentional throwing-together of phrases.
in the case of GPS, the ongoing functioning of the system is wholly dependent on a large amount of very precise measurements and calculations, which aren't much different from what you'd be calculating for putting a rocket up into a particular orbit. and that does count as part of rocket science. part of the revolution of the space age was the advent of computers that could be used to do numerical calculus.
It was worse than that, right before he said that part he said one of the methods of verification was "using the GPS system", then "it's not rocket science." If GPS doesn't involve rocket science, what does?
Practical enough that the US military has been renting it out...:)

It is assumed that US authorities and/or the US military hired the Mriya for transporting cargo to the Gulf in connection with the 2003 Iraq war and/or the occupation of Iraq.
ahahahaha, you're worried about something accidentally radioing classified speech out of your facility? why are you conducting classified speech in a facility without RF shielding? c'mon, man.
Also, go check out Dr. Miller's ether-drift experiments from the mid-20s. He got consistent measurements of a varying speed of light in different cosmic directions, and as far as I know, none of the objections to his work have held up.

it is nice that HURD supports larger files now.

It may or may not support large files yet, that could be another few years
It's quite possible to break out of the cycle of age-based close-mindedness... Mandelbrot did it, for example.
I thought that, but then I also thought of the line of microcontrollers made by Microchip.
... and they don't have pictures???!!!
hehe, that "business plan" has already been tried

I'd argue an embryo becomes a human when a recognizable brain forms, and detectable brain activity occurs.
So in other words, ~48 days into the pregnancy, when the first dose of DMT floods the brain.
omfg that video has the funniest music. all explosive product test videos should be produced like that!
Never stick your tongue in a socket. The taste of power is too refined for you.
vanadium redox never had anything to do with being an energy source -- it's a better design for storage (if you can tolerate the weight).

Often these values are upheld, but more and more people are straying from the basic ideas of what religion was indeed to teach us.
More and more? Dude, it's been this bad all along. Random google searching found me this.
What the fsck does this have to do with "Your Rights Online"?

These aren't the only guys working on such things.

hmm... doesn't it help, a lot, that all the big lines are 3-phase, and quite closely spaced w.r.t. the wavelength?

if by "specifically optimized" you mean "used floating point instead of fixed point", then yeah :)

...84629? come on man, it's 846264338, so rounding would make that a 6, not a 9.
