Not implying. There are a lot of willfully ignorant people that prefer their religion's tale of a 10,000 year old universe to cosmology, geology, astrophysics, and biology. but they really should be a tiny minority on par with other mental illnesses.

A drone is just a remote controlled aircraft with a camera. I had several "drones" in the late 1980's as a teenager, for fuck's sake. Get over the knee-jerk raction equating "drone" with "terminator T-1000" and come back to sanity.
Anectdote: I was in Kandahar and I saw this large breasted Army girl leaning on a new pickup. It was a Tata, and sitting right next to an identical one. I could not resist. "Nice tatas!"
We could stop wasting the fuel you call waste, and using it completely instead. What we do now is like bringing in oil, burning off the diesel and ignoring the gasoline, kerosene, and all the other fuels it contains.
Or, instead of spouting off in ignorance, you could read the article.
"Meanwhile, the biggest issue that faces most nuclear plants under emergency conditions â" overheating and potential meltdown, as happened at Fukushima, Chernobyl, and Three Mile Island â" would be virtually impossible at sea, Buongiorno says: âoeItâ(TM)s very close to the ocean, which is essentially an infinite heat sink, so itâ(TM)s possible to do cooling passively, with no intervention.

Bullshit. Every time money changes hands it is taxed. That the person who held it before you aid taxes is completely and totally irrelevant.
I pay income tax. If I hire you to mow my lawn, what I pay you is not tax free just because I have paid taxes on it. Same as if I simply hand you a wad of cash. It changes hands, it is taxed.
Hey, Saddam was know to kill up to 3 people a year! So what if a hundred thousand of his people died, and Al-Queda was able to move in to a country previously unavailable to them to begin killing locals. So long as those 3 people were saved! And my Halliburton stocks paid nice dividends.
When the word of the cop and the word of the citizen are treated with equal weight in court, your argument will be valid. until then, the citizens need all the protection they can get against a system that leans away from justice and in favor of the police.
I have never been tricked into spending money. But I do not play app games, so I may have dodged a bullet. Pay-to-play on PC has been a rather pleasant experience thus far.
In my experience, this only really kicks the hardcore players in the ass. I play sasually, and the various rewards given as time progresses work well to offset the non-pay penalties. SWTOR does this well. Sign up for a secure key app, there is 100 coins a month. Progressing in levels and achievements in game nets you xp boosts and such. Quest rewards are the same for everyone- and often it is XP or power boosts as well. Spend the coin to pen pay-only areas for a week, go play them that week. if you like it open them again next month. Pop your XP boosts and you play a level game with a subscriber. Or, as you get high level, buy those market items from the auction house for game money. When you are sitting on a couple million with nothing else to spend it on, why bitch as a 10 pack of major XP boosts for 10k? Or a token to open restricted areas for a month for 100k?
We simply hold everyone responsible for their trades. No bailouts, not rescues, no help. You fuck up, YOU burn.
Restore regulation to help keep the inventors of new scams from their short term gains before the general surge crashes that particular market segment. I think a lot fewer major scams would happen if the downside of trading was left intact.
you say that like it is a bad thing. Making all these entertainment options easy to use on the TV is an improvement in my book. Fuck cable, tiered plans, and everything that goes with it.
I disagree. Freedom of speech is a two way street. You have every right to say what you will, but you have no right to be shielded from the social repercussions of that speech.
If you want to act like a pariah, you need to accept people treating you like one.
"Dry" - That word you keep using. I do not think it means what you think it does. -Inigo Montoya I lived in Orange County as well as Oceanside. Dry is not the term I would use. When the air is so humid you have to chew it, that is wet. My position is relative, I grew up in a desert and lived at high altitudes the rest of the time except for that foray into SoCal.
I tend to packrat hardware. It pays off in the long run. When I want something, I build it. When the clutter starts to grow I will throw parts on EBAY and see what flies. Usually I can get about $10 per part for most, some I get nothing. I just sold late 90's HP RAID controllers for the NetServer SCO servers, new in the original box. I got $900 each for them. Somebody has an old server running a critical legacy application, when they see working spare parts for it, they snatch them up. Apparently there were more than one for this piece as the bidding was furious on both auctions.
You have clearly never worked for/consulted small businesses. Budget is paramount, and a used server can be the difference between a viable setup and a user's laptop running as a fileserver.
I take sugar free gum. Offer it to the mothers of older children nearby who are in pain. Younger children, I show the obviously new mamma how to help baby pop their ears.
(it's easy, pull gently straight down on the lobes. Baby's crying will take care of the rest.)
On Amazon, it might come up when I search, but that doesn't mean it will be free, and if it isn't free, I probably won't watch it at all.
This is very annoying ting about Prime. I do not use the streaming function because it is frustrating in this way. The shipping savings are worth it, even with the cost raise just announced. If, that is, you do a lot of Amazon buying, which I do.

On the other hand, thorium reactors are even more efficient, and the leftover is nearly inert.

How much do they pay you for these NSA flagellation? I'd like a second income, and it appears you don't have to put any effort into it at all.
There s absolutely now way to get a cassette tape recorder on that little board.

The USA has started more wars than any other country. Your democracy claim falls pretty damn flat at that fact.

That is technically three things.
