Sir Bedivere
...and that, my liege, is how we know the Earth to be banana shaped.
This happens currently anyways...

[Many residents near Kandahar] have lodged repeated complaints about the scope of the destruction with U.S. and Afghan officials. In one October operation near the city, U.S. aircraft dropped about two dozen 2,000-pound bombs.
In another recent operation in the Zhari district, U.S. soldiers fired more than a dozen mine-clearing line charges in a day. Each one creates a clear path that is 100 yards long and wide enough for a truck. Anything that is in the way - trees, crops, huts - is demolished.
"Why do you have to blow up so many of our fields and homes?" a farmer from the Arghandab district asked a top NATO general at a recent community meeting.
Although military officials are apologetic in public, they maintain privately that the tactic has a benefit beyond the elimination of insurgent bombs. By making people travel to the district governor's office to submit a claim for damaged property, "in effect, you're connecting the government to the people," the senior officer said.
Welcome to the Real!
You will like it here...
These machines have postapocalyptic soviet soul...
...you can't understand.
That .kids idea sounds good...
But then you suddenly encounter teletubbies....
Gotta say, in the Olden Days, we didn't download porn but browser the lower shelves of the local comic book store for original french content. Guido Crépax was a bit much for my soft mind though.
We didn't start the fire; it was always burning since the world's been turning...
"She wants tighter controls on material that is legal for over-18s to access."
That is _still_ legal to access, that is...
Better than the Bates Motel
...the Saw Motel
Unfortunately
We are stuck here. They cut corners.
War is peace, ignorance is strength, copying is a crime. Trust the computer.
"At present, there is no specific obligation under Nominet's terms and conditions for owners to ensure their domain names are not used for crime."
I would say that doesn't need to be in T&C, really.
"Despite this, in December, at the request of the Met's Police Central e-Crime Unit (PCeU), Nominet revoked the domain names of 1,200 websites it said were being used to sell counterfeit designer goods"
That's a _crime_ nowadays?
Why the concern?
Why would you be concerned about reactors on interplanetary manned craft?
These ships will have LOTS of shielding to keep the interstellar subatomic golfballs / the odd solar flare out and shielding the reactor will be listed under "bugs to fix later". Not even talking about cancerogenic chemicals that will probably accumulate in the closed-cycle systems.
The astronauts they will probably have their reproductive organs pickled away before the trip or something.
I wouldn't even be concerned about a slab of plutonium taped to the outside of an exploding shuttle. It's not going critical, and it's not like anyone is going to inject the debris into his bloodstream. You would probably find it back in one piece; it's just metal.
Maybe they should read the universal declaration of human rights
1) Do something in your own home with stuff owned by you.
2) State, backed by fatcat lobbyists, arbitrarily decides that it can decide that you cannot do that
3) ???
4) JEW! errr, I mean GUILTY!
The Fletcher Memorial Home is that way..
"The publication of this classified information by WikiLeaks is an irresponsible attempt to wreak havoc and destabilize global security. It potentially jeopardizes lives."
It's not like bombing and invading random countries or torturing some random dudes to death potentially jeopardizes lives.
Statist riffraff.
On collectable clunkers with an application to the Verwertungsproblem
A box that's a bad attempt at commercial-level encryption, some electro-junk from a cultish startup and the infinitely copyable thoughts of young Alan.
Can I have the lot for USD 50?
1.3 x 10⁹ USD?
Ok, that's one whole MySQL database with 30% markup, then?
That jury must be collectively retarded.
"so that the number of inventions generated soars"
In other news, free energy generated out of empty beer bottles, gold found in toilet etc.
Why do I have to read such crap from pretend intellectuals (are there any other) in the morning? And the day was beginning so well, with all the servers up.
I want my women objectified and hot!
I also want to have a .50 Browning HBAR fully locked and loaded with 500 antipersonnel rounds to use on these whining "government save me, clamp down on other people" amoral spidery cretins.
That's the point
If the SA, sorry T-SA wants to do obedience training of the whole populace, they should at least work for it.
Of course, you will get arrested for "illegal wearing of rare raw war-relevant elements" or something like this.
It's good to hear taxpayer keep paying for such B.S.
It's not like the empire is broke and washed ashore.
Still, I can't wait for the headlines this will make when a fully autonomous attack mistakenly blows up a few hundred rich Pakistani in a well-populated inner city because of an off-by-one error. That's gonna be The Lulz.
And here I was hoping for a movie featuring Babbage and the Difference Engine.
Turns out it's just porn.

What does the Federal Reserve have to do with credit cards?
I thought their only job is to blow paper money out of their arse by the truckload if government and Nobel-prize-heavy economists demand it, blowing the economy heavenwards enough to survive till up to the next elections (and damn the consequences)?
Super-Insertion Force Socket?
I would think that's the effect of the 100 pounds of force that the spring with the thermal sink brings to the target.
Tombstone because dead CPU.
"we cannot build exascale systems that require their own nuclear power plant" to juice them up
Err... whyever not?
Because Greens will dump core upon hearing that a few kilograms of enriched uranium are going critical in a downtown office building?
Sod that! It sounds like a perfect market driver for those small-scale nukes on the drawing boards.
But then suddenly...
....no-one would give any more of a f*ck than happens currently.
What's the currently claim anyways? Five lines of "illegally copied" comments?
Ah, Indonesia.
Such a lovely country.
A little genocide (with the West's complicity, I hasten to add), a little Prison For Porn, a bit of crackdown on sodomy, a little antiterror slash-and-burn...
Or maybe fatsos need to slim down, not get more money for food
Hint to the clueless: these "parasites" are providing jobs which are then income taxed. Not good enough, comrade?

"The Irish economy rests on the precipice of devastation. Government interventionism has left Ireland with little room to maneuver in this difficult economic climate. The answer to Ireland's economic woes is not further government intervention in the economy, but a return to economic liberalism, small government, and sound monetary policy. Ireland needs to look closely at Austrian economic theory and take a step back from the dissolving, failed Keynesian model. Ireland needs to return to a firm base: it must eliminate, or at the very least curtail, its leviathan public sector; it must bring inflation under control through responsible monetary and fiscal policy; and it must cut down government economic controls in order to bring lasting stability to its economy. The only sound plan can be to cut public spending, eliminate social-welfare programs, and cease propping up failing sectors of the market. A drastic turn to responsible economics is the only legitimate way to escape the deep rut Ireland finds itself in. If the Celtic Tiger is to sharpen its claws once more, it will need to grind them on the whetstone of the free market."
Unfair competitive advantage?
"Hey, you are shaking down your marks less than I do? That's UNFAIR! How can I afford all these political handouts and stuff?"
Umm....
"For years cellular operators have been charging ludicrously high roaming charges for calls in neighboring countries and making excess profits [what the hell are 'excess profits'?] on overseas traffic. It has taken years of legislation from Neelie Kroes and others, to stop this profiteering."
The only legislation I remember that caused international tariffs to go down was the breaking of the state-run telecom monopolies on landline and mobile traffic that hoovered up crazy money from their captive market (these state employees have amazing salaries and perks, ya know). Big corporate customers suddenly able to route all their calls through private switches or mobile customers able to switch their provider were a marvelous wake-up call.
Stand up? Yeah, but there is a problem.
You are not allowed to take a fist to the perp's face to make him stop by liberation of teeth and limbs otherwise your whole social environment will come down hard on you while bemoaning the poor's perp's now fatally compromised future.
You have to stay in the sheep's role. But not really.
So, how to do?
There's more to Kafka than Gregor Samsa.
We have "The Trial"
""t tells the story of a man arrested and prosecuted by a remote, inaccessible authority, with the nature of his crime never revealed either to him or the reader." [citation needed]
Of course, I am not suggesting, intimating or otherwise inferring, neither in part or in full, that intimidation, perverted (if not military) justice, kangaroo courts, rampant surveillance and out of control three-letter agencies are a staple of Bomborama's presidency.
All glory to the Government!
By a hundred hanging popes!
That X-tian description would make me expect that Lovecraft's body animated by Nyarlatothep would be making guest appearances during episodes of especially deep bass accompanied by the mad piping of blind, ghoulish metal groupies.
Otherwise I would ask for money back.
You better had do some work...
Because the military-industrial clusterfuck needs your tax money. I hear the 3-trillion dollar war ain't going well.
Yes!
"Instead it's material made from a bunch of sub-atomic particles that have the reverse electric charge (like the electron/positron particle/antiparticle pair)"
More correctly, opposite quantum numbers.
You need inverse spin, inverse electric charge (+/-), inverse color charge (blue/antiblue), inverse baryon number, inverse hypercharge. Did I forget anything?
So I guess...
...the check cleared.
Seriously though, Sweden tops the rape/inhabitant list in the same way as Stalin's Russia topped the spys/inhabitant list.
What is an "industry official", pray tell?
MS claimed that the respondents offered “resounding support” for government and industry officials to take action against pirates.
Respondents of various questionnaires would certainly offer "resounding support" for any pea-brained scheme coming from any cammarilla of Armani-dressed government/industry officials. They would even happily wear a brassard to show their allegiance.
Possibly.
...as every piece of arsepaper is monopolized these days.
And then amurricans are bitching and moaning about nonexistent jobs. It's China who dunnit, you know.
Oh well
Can't hurt I guess. These people are not going to tune your automotive board controller anyways.
I guess....
Actually, no
It's full of 1 singularity.
And thus
...the Simpsonian PHP programmer turns back to his blue-collar work.
I second the motion.
Ticks all the boxes under the "how does this make sense" header.
Yes...
"A SCADA system always refers to a system that coordinates, but does not control processes in real time"
Yes. It's like the SNMP jazz for op-amp and motor-oriented people. Though it's sometimes based on Microsoft OLE (HURL!)
Hey!
I though it was "impossible" for these scanners to store and even less print images.
Where do these X-files (naked silvery humanoid with facemask pun!) come from, then?
Just as planned...
...but by whom?
Yes I see.
Please, *please*, good people, I am in haste! WHO lives in that castle?
"I will be back"
I hope there shall be a book about those algorithms. And no patents! (I wish)
Pretty novel interpretation of copyright law, if you ask me...
Quite apart from whether actual copyright infringement has occurred, which, given Larry's constant testosterone problems, may quite well not be the case, I have never heard of a plagiarist attempting to shove off the responsibility of his copying to his readers...
Or am I misunderstanding something?
And so do people
...so generally one stays way below those belts.
Low Earth Orbit, right?
Fedora does what is has to...
because strutting politicians are stinking things up relentlessly, believing that draconian laws will make the world a happy place full of smiles, candy, fluffy animals and well-ironed uniforms.
This will go on until only criminals and three-letter agencies have dual-use tools and then we are truly owned.
Yeah.. he he...
“Whether intentional or not, collecting information sent over Wi-Fi networks clearly infringes on consumer privacy,” said FCC official Joe Gurin earlier this year.
And only the state can do that without restraints. Otherwise, where would we be?
With the Imperial Stormtroopers on location...
"The drones are used to kill terrorists in Afghanistan, Pakistan and Yemen."
You mean "kill random people".
On the other hand, they got killed, so they must have been terrorists, right?
