It's also important to note that most courts don't actually function like they do in the movies. They consider things like intent, as opposed to technicalities.
It kinda sucks but, well, here we are. I'm not exactly sure what they think they're going to accomplish. TPB can go offline forever, and people are still gonna pirate stuff. I'm pretty sure it's effectively impossible to prevent it. 'Snot like we weren't pirating stuff before the advent of the WWW.
I'd also add that, while we may not agree with the government in this matter - it's kinda pretty much what I'd expect them to do. I'm pretty sure they're gonna keep doing this, too.
That doesn't mean give up, it just means keep resisting.
I'd also like to see the boot loader unlocked. This just means you're not tied to a specific carrier. Having the boot loader unlocked would mean you could actually own the hardware - instead of purchasing the hardware and licensing the software.
You should take your meds. It'll be good for you. Also, maybe look up the word "influence." Russia sure as hell influenced the election. That hasn't a damned thing to do with the legitimacy of the election. If you want to be able to say that makes him illegitimate, then you can say the same for Obama, Bush, Clinton, and keep going back. We've had foreign influence pretty much since the inception of our country. Hell, the PM of Canada was quite vocal about urging people to vote for Obama. Somehow, I don't think that's something you're concerned about - nor should you be. Unless you want to cease information flow outside the borders, it's gonna get influenced. That's what happens when you have a big world full of people with opinions, goals, and means.
I didn't click your link. You told me the problem already. It ignores everything else.
I feel inclined to make a joke about spherical cows, but I am feeling lazy. But, if it ignores stuff like political feasibility, it's just a pointless but of math. I do love me some math, but usually I prefer it to have a point.
It has been a long, long time since university. But, I seem to recall that distance is also a factor - and that even seemingly small distances add up quickly. Inverse square, I think?
Which means I'm not willing to speculate on how efficient this will be in real-world use.
I don't think that's how it would work. Seriously, have you seen people's obsession with their phones? Nobody is going to share power, that'd be like asking a fat person for their last bite of cake. You're asking them to share their crack.
If you enjoy living in Brazil, you must be one of the luckier ones who isn't a slum. I've visited your country. It has some nice features, but it's a corrupt shithole, pretty much everywhere - except for the wealthy and tourists.
If the interest on their current assets is greater than the interest charged for a loan, it makes sense to borrow the money. This is like rule #7, if you want to be in the 1%. You're welcome.
I suppose someone reading down through the thread may be confused by this response. See, above, I supported pulling out of the accord.
Now, down here, I am telling you that I encourage everyone to learn some basic science. No, AGW is real and CO2 is one of the causes of this. The planet is pretty good at regulating itself, until you knock it so far out of balance that it can't correct itself quickly. And yeah, AGW is pretty much the definition of a self-correcting problem. The planet will fix itself. We may not survive, as a species, but ol' Mr. Earth is gonna be just fine, given enough time.
And yes, I still fully support pulling out of the accord.
I've said it before, I'll say it again. Trump got this one right, and the attempts to spin it are mind bogglingly crazy. Not being a signatory doesn't actually mean we can't do this and more. We can even do with a combination of public and private resources.
Screaming doom and blathering spittle-flecked hyperbole is why we got Trump.
I am old, so this is a bit archaic but salient. Way back in ye olden days, we had a saying. It seems appropriate. 'The more the Soviet Union looks like America, the more America looks like the Soviet Union.'
I don't even need a permit to lawfully carry a concealed firearm. Boy, it's tough dodging all those bullets. Seriously, I can lawfully carry a concealed weapon without a permit. Right now, I have that right. You want to take that right from me, why?
I realize this isn't normal for many areas, but my vegetable garden is probably a bit more than 1.5 acres. That's a bit large for non-commercial, but it isn't the largest personal garden in my area. Imma need a bunch of them.

True, but it is also rational.
Whitespace?!? Racist!

You'll be alright. Really.

That could maybe work, if you didn't want to do any real browsing or play games.
LOL

Wait, what? LOL you go to a mechanic? Not for everything, I hope?
One of the stupidest things I've done was have a lift installed in one of my bays. Do not do that!

The difference is choice. You remember that idea, don't you?
We can still do that, and more.

You will not like my answer.
Yes. I accept that firearms will continue to be used to cause harm. Yes. I am okay with that. No. No number of deaths will change my views.
I enjoy a free society. My answer will remain the same, even if a loved one is the victim.
Do you really think the US has more mass shootings than Mexico?

You can hunt deer with .223.
I feed and entertain myself, with my firearms. I'd say they are very productive.
You're not very observant, are you? It's okay.
