That's mostly beside the point. Google's customers aren't those who use it to search, they are their advertisers. Google has largely abused this position to shut down their competitors. On top of that they have abused their position to place their other services on better places than their competitors. This is the relevant part about Google's antitrust issues, not how easy it is for users to switch services. Google isn't a traditional consumer-seller business.
I forgot what class in high school it was, applied electronics or something, we built a number of kits. Lots of little blinking lights, an AM/FM radio, and a phone. Not sure what company provided the kits, but yea, some schools did use electronic kits to teach kids how to work on electronics.
The war on drugs is futile and creates more problems than it solves.
Drug abuse should be treated as a disease.
Drug production and distribution should be legalized and most importantly regulated.
Currently since the government is 100% against drugs it has no means of regulating the market which allows it to flourish everywhere.
If there is one thing conservatives should be able to grasp is that the government can do a better job suppressing an industry with regulation than it can by making the industry illegal.
I'm thinking the 6/10 gives the impression that this book doesn't really fit here, but it's marketed to this demographic which is why it got reviewed in the first place.
Would you say that the reason for the banning of some chemistry equipment in Texas is in place to stop drugs or stop science?
Although there is a severe anti-intellectual movement in conservative circles I just cannot believe for one minute that the banning of some chemistry equipment is being done as an anti-science campaign.
Because they are idealists, its why they volunteer. They do not see us as the enemy, we are who they are trying to protect, our rights are their motivation for them to risk their lives.
Law Enforcement sees our rights as something that gets in their way. Also, law enforcement has their own drones they can spy on you with, they don't need the military for that.
The military risks their lives in foreign lands for our rights, but as far as law enforcement is concerned all our rights do is put barriers in their way.
Ok, lets say during Katrina that the Air Force supplied drones for surveying the damage and helping to direct relief. Yes, it didn't happen, but
Lets take a step further and say that the drones recorded the police officers shooting civilians.
If that had happened then the Air Force would not have been allowed to share that information without this law.
Now remember, this is the military, not law enforcement, they have very very strict rules in regards to how they can interact with civilian life. They cannot and will not arrest civilians and even with this law they can only share information such as this under very specific conditions. Also, they are not in the business of putting civilians under surveillance, this law is for hypothetical situations that should not occur, but if they do occur there are now guidelines on how to deal with it.
You would have to be pretty goddamn paranoid to think that the government is trying to stop SCIENCE.
It's just stupid people making stupid laws. They don't put too much thought into it beyond the fear of being labelled anti-crime for not passing the stupid law.
We'll agree to disagree on that point then because one of the major motivations for the military is the protection of our rights. There are a lot of idealists in the military who take this kind of thing very seriously.
We have far far more to fear from law enforcement, than our military.
Funny that you can make meth using a 2 liter plastic bottle so that law, like so many others, is completely useless at doing what it was intended to do.

He has many accounts. He created five today.
I would call your delusional, but you appear to be paid to write the bullshit you do.
You are not the only one, but they have already experimented with gravity free sex on the vomit comet.
Just the phrase "sex on the vomit comet" sounds so wrong.
No it is not, but it is worded in such a way that you would think it is.
Who knows what will be their next cash cow.
It used to be computers, err Macs.
Then it was MP3 Players.
Now it is iPhones.
So, which type of plant should they build?
I ain't completely sure what to call them, but they do not function as an editor.
They may approve submissions, but they don't edit them or even check the links.
Here is my current theory.
Bonch works for /.
He puts up arguments that go completely opposite the standard /. view creating arguments and page views.
He is a paid punching bag.
Find a way to turn that into a scavenger hunt and you may have a point, otherwise, shove it up your ass.
Rather than create a new account for each story you want to troll, why not just log in with the same one each time?
What is the point in creating a new account for each new troll? People who come here often can spot you easy enough.
Hard drive contents from the Street View collection?
Really?
Got a source on that one, cause that sounds more than just unlikely it sounds like a complete lie.

That is wonderful, do you share your successes with parts lists and instructions anywhere?

There were a number of rules regarding sex, no penetrating until the test results get back was a big one.

That is the primary difference.

Are you NUTS!!!
I don't want to be deported to Mexico, I'm Canadian!!
And if you were able to read the article you would realize that the military isn't policing the citizenry and won't be policing the citizenry.
What isn't mentioned in the fear mongering story is that anyone responsible for the accidental surveillance would be court-marshaled.
The Military takes your rights very seriously, it's law enforcement that shits on them.
