It is easy to shoot accurately, if you know how.
Don't try to hold the rifle still. It is impossible. If you try to hold it still on a target, then it will move in a little circle around the point you are aiming at and you will never hit the bulls-eye. The more you try to hold it still, the worse the movement will get.
The trick is to find the target direction and point slightly above it, then move the rifle down, down, down, sloooowly and when you move over the target, squeeze the trigger.
I hope this tip will save some newb from embarassment at the rifle range...
The US has been recording everything for decades already. A few days after the KAL 007 plane was downed, the USA released transcripts of the voice comms between the fighter pilots. Nuf sed.
My Dodge Durango hemi also consistently gets better fuel consumption at higher speed. At 120kmh it runs at only 2000 rpm. I'll probably have to exceed 200kmh before the mileage will get worse.
If you ask me a question and I give you and answer you immediately know how to proceed. If I give you a book, then you know how to proceed after a few hours. However, if I merely send you down the street to the library, then I haven't helped you at all did I? That is Schneier's point.
They don't have to be made of metal. Take a shotgun shell for example - most of it is plastic already - not hard to eliminate what little metal is remaining.
Yeah, well you see, the UK sales staff are totally ineffective and never managed to sell a durn thing, despite receiving lots of training from the Irish. They are only retained to help reduce unemployment in the UK...
So then you should be much more concerned about coal power stations, that release vast amounts of radio active pollutants in their fly ash over the surrounding country side, ending up in everyone's food. One coal station kills more people every year with its pollution than all nukes have since the 1970s.
All countries that publicly reduced nuclear energy production, makes up the diff with coal. China, is also using more coal, but they are building a large number of nukes too, so I won't blame them.
One problem with coal, is that after you burned coal, there is still more energy in the uranium in the ash, than was produced by burning the coal. So every coal fired plant is effectively a 'dirty bomb' that pollutes our food supply with radio active ash.
Yeah, but it is Germany. In order to do IT work on a PC, you need to have a plumber and an electrician on standby and you are not allowed to do more than one PC at the same time...
The coal seam gas is already down there. Taking it out can only REDUCE the contamination of the water table.
Ditto with the stupid complaints about producing oil from tar sands. The tar sand produciton in Canada is the world's lagest environmental cleanup operation, and people still complain.

No, it is not luck. You got to pick your parents carefully.
What is this facebook thing everybody is talking about?
Hmm, even a single byte can be transformed into a copyrighted movie...

Used to be like forever yes. Nowadays, most voice backbones are VoIP and compressed to almost nothing.
You can even OD on water if you try hard enough.
The one with no chest hair and nicks all over...

The TSA is a very effective Anti-Tourism Agency. As for Anti-Terrorism, possibly not so much.

Science no. Stupid yes.

Well, Yuri Gagarin is still flying and he has right of way...
(Legend has it that he didn't die in a plane crash in 1968 and is still in orbit.)
They got to watch out for Yuri Gagarin too. According to legend, he is still flying up there.

Why have an auction if they want a fixed amount of revenue? Just set the price to 20 gazillion and sell it to the first sucker.
We can solve world hunger within 30 years, by handing our contraceptives. Those are not expensive and it doesn't require any mass culling.
Obviously unable to do anything practical, since he is only versed in made up mumbo jumbo.

Well, you see, obviously God forgot to tell Lucifer when to stop...
Old idea. There was a X-Files episode about glowing mosquitoes.
Some people will complain about anything.
