Hey! We know they're elite scientists because The Pentagon hired them. It's All Good! Now, please attach these electrodes to your head for a nice, virtual massage...
Right! What they need is super fine granularity on an fMRI, which they will have to wait for... OR Use a normal fMRI on a HUUUUGE brain! If only we could find one of those...

You HAVE to read the label! It is Yellow Cake Mix... So you have to provide some ingredients. Also, some assembly* required. *You may want to move your oven outdoors...
c) Committed felonies while employed by a defense contractor. I'll bet he signed something to get that job which stated he was not a crook... And God help him if that software is found on anything that related to his work or any other government system, because that takes it to a whole new level.
The problem with the edit button is you can change entire posts after a long discussion has had about what you originally said. This is extremely damaging to open discussion because the second someone starts to "lose" and argument one of the first things they might think about doing is editing the original and subsequent posts to remove errors in logic or completely change the meaning. This can make the "correct" respondents look like the idiots or assholes when they were actually correct.
The edit button also helps power users be who go back and check on their posts be "louder" while harming the voice occasional posters who don't go back and edit.
Anything you are needed to edit can be done in a subsequent post or if the information needs to be removed - remove the entire post. There is little justification for an un-tracked editing feature other than to allow minor to major abuses.
Mercifully we have been given a "Quote Parent" button here at/.
It's supposed to be pretty rare for a post to go away, much less be edited here, but things can happen...
And their sophisticated forensics tools sound a lot like DiskDigger... $15 and no install, runs off a thumb drive if you like. https://diskdigger.org/howitworks I've been using it for years to recover deleted files or photos and it also does carving, Works on any HD formatting scheme I've ever run across.
Grants aren't free when you have to lie to get them! I realize that in our ever changing economy a soul is not worth what it used to be*, but even the current glut market has not devalued it to free...

Now they just have to show that the moon has different regions with matter different enough that it can be traced to different origins and disprove an iron core. Time for another moon mission!
Well, the iron core thing should be easy. First, I'm going to need enough grant money to build a REALLY BIG electromagnet. Going to need lots of power so maybe a dedicated reactor would be a good idea (can't think of a dam to co-opt). Lastly a very brave and possibly stupid person to throw the switch. Might want to make that momentary contact type switch. we don't want to slow anything down, or speed anything up, celestially speaking. Man I am gonna be SO famous as long as the moon just wobbles a bit and does not get sucked out of the sky or anything...
Performance wise it was very good software, it "knew" when it was in a test environment and behaved in a manner totally at odds with normal day to day operation. Sadly for them, researchers began a study on emissions discrepancies between European and US models of vehicles, Portable Emissions Measurement Systems showed totally different values from test rig results and the rest is yet to be played out.
They would have gotten away with it if it hadn't been for those pesky kids at the International Council on Clean Transportation!
Universities have never been more than a bottom-line for-profit business that uses cult-like recruiting tactics and has absolutely no shame or loyalty to anything or anyone but themselves.
I hope this is becoming a bit clearer to everyone now, as in the past I've been ridiculed for blasting universities as money-driven cults.
They provide very little value in the modern world and should be used sparingly.
In your above comment I agree and frankly I'm a bit shocked that you did not suggest finding the ass-hat that gets a bonus for this grand money making scheme. Since, as the illustrious Senator pointed out, there are federal tax dollars involved, it would be nice to know if a company of foreign origin has imparted any finders fee, gift, promise of future employment, etc. to an ass-hat currently working for the Great State of California, or a contractor thereof...
Sorry we pile on so often, but you must admit the name Anonymous Coward frequently has a certain barnyard perfume associated with it... Happy to see you with FP so we get a reminder that you sometimes seem to be someone else completely. You nailed this one.
