but pilot suicide/ homicide is just as much a bizarre outlier as murderous hijacking
Do we have the score on this? From my brief skimming of MAYDAY episode synopses, it seems about the same number have occurred. However, poor maintenance, and errors by ground crew and pilots are 10-20 times more likely to kill you.
Easy. You start in London, and head along the 401 East. You then turn off onto highway 403 and continue East until you hit the QEW. Take that towards Niagara Falls. Following the signs for highway 404, which will lead you to the Queenston/Lewiston bridge. You cross the bridge and get on I-90 to Syracuse. Follow interstates 81, 380 and 80 South and East into New York.
Or you could take the tube to Heathrow and fly to New York.
The money they could make by advertising no-stick bottles far and away outweighs the losses due to the customer getting a packet worth of extra ketchup out of the bottle.
Directions unclear. Router bounced off lid of garbage can and landed on toe. Involuntary spasm caused garbage can to be knocked over and to become tripping hazard. In hospital with concussion. Garbage everywhere.
Yeah, that was kind of thin, wasn't it? Still, continuing the search has got to be worth something somewhere along the line to the folks with the purse-strings, otherwise they would have stopped.
You can't crack a cabin door open at altitude. The cabin is pressurized relative to the outside air, and the cabin door is plug fit, meaning it plugs the hole like a stopper in a basin. You have to pull the door into the plane, against the pressure, in order to open it. A mere thousand feet up, the pressure on the door is something like 1500 pounds.
On the other hand, the search is providing information about the ocean floor, weather patterns, currents, etc. as well as providing on-the-job training and practice for oceanographers, search and rescue teams, and the like. So, it's not like there is no return on the investment being made.
No. Effect (meaning to induce or bring about) is correct here. Affect (meaning to alter or influence) is wrong. Terrorism induces political change. It causes change to happen. Terrorism can only affect or alter political change if that political change was already in the works.
The second password shouldn't brick the phone, it should take you to a second version of your phone's file system, which contains only the "happy birds" game, a collection of bad but sincere teenage poetry, and a spreadsheet listing the names of each member of Canada's federal government cabinet alongside a 6 figure dollar number.

Because a browser is a layer seven application and flash is a layer six protocol.

You can buy docsis 3 modems everywhere Comcast operates... so yes, capitalism does give every customer this choice.
Question: In a client/server situation, where do you put the graphics card, in the server to do the rendering, or in the client to run the display?
Commercial doesn't imply profitable.
The real mystery is why the diameter was chosen instead of the more logical ratio of the circumference to the radius. Euclid would not approve.
Any unmanned aircraft is a drone - even the Cox 049 powered plane on a string.
Not all skydiving is done from a plane. There are plenty of folks who jump off of perfectly good bridges and cliffs and film the result.
He was flying his drone in order to get pictures/video to post on Youtube. It is commercial use.

Until we find wreckage, we have no idea what happened to the plane, nor how to prevent it from happening again.
How is any of this related to what Slashdot is supposed to be about?
Um... It may affect their right to work on strong encryption software?
Also, what's preventing them from becoming Americans further down the road if they chose?
Remember that twenty years in the future, many parts of the world will mature.
We can only hope that that includes the US. :-)
Not relinquishing a password on request *IS* a crime in certain jurisdictions.

... just like every assassin's phone.
True - Restoring is trivial once through customs. However, getting through customs once you've wiped information is problematic.
It died along with the "I forgot that murder was a crime" defence.
