At some point you have to get the uranium up there. If the rocket it's on explodes for some reason you've got a bit of a mess here on Earth. I think it's a valid concern.

Also congress can easily override the rulings of the court. The branches are co-equal. One does not override another
Try as I might to reconcile the first and third statements to find a consistent thought, I just can't do it.
So what? Tor is perfectly legal. The use of Tor doesn't say anything about you other than you are using Tor. Anyone who thinks it implies something nefarious or criminal is going on is fucked in the head.
I had to google IoT....
Me too. I had no idea that many people worked at Institutes of Technology.
Well, yeah. Remember that the Constitution's version of "due process" is not supposed to actually restrict the government, so much as it protects the people from the historical (at the time) abuses governments had commonly employed.
Then what protects us from the abuses governments currently employ? Oh, encryption.
Suspected != guilty and if they go around publicizing suspects or even people who the police have named as suspects or "persons of interest" who turn out to be innocent, it will hurt Anonymous's own reputation big-time.
Yes, it would hurt Anonymous's sterling reputation as fine, upstanding citizens, full of kindness and charity, the very model of intergrity and all that is good in the world.
Don't be a spoilsport. We were having a lot of fun until you showed up with your actual facts and rational explanations.
Now do you have a proper source? one that's preferably not a paranoid schizophrenic with a repeated tendency to lie and who through all semblance of sanity out the window years ago?
Can't tell whether you're talking about John McAfee or James Clapper.
McAfee says North Korea didn't do it? That's all the proof I need that they did!
The NSA says North Korea did do it? That's all the proof I need that they didn't.
Has anyone actually gone into root and executed the command-that-shall-not-be-named?
Oh yes. Once by accident due to finger flail. Fortunately, this was on my own desktop machine, and I was able to fully recover from backups. It was a valuable lesson though (once bitten. twice shy). I now pay more attention to what's on the screen before hitting enter.
Well that depends: do people still use carbon film resistors?
Yes, but we prefer to buy them for a fraction of a penny, not a package of 5 for $1.49. Good riddance, Radio Shack.
As for slaughtering, well, chickens are relatively easy. You can go for the messy way and just chop the head off, but if you prefer less mess and a calmer chicken, just use a killing cone, hang upside down, slit the throat, let the blood drain for a couple minutes. Dunk in scalding water, pluck feathers. The only mildly hard part is getting out the viscera, and that's only because you don't want to puncture the intestines (and get feces all over) -- so make a cut in the right place, then use you hand gently to yank them out. Cut off the feet and neck, and you're basically done.
Stop already, you're making me hungry!
People use "sophisticated" to mean "more trouble than we were prepared for."
Well, it's partly that and part face-saving spin. No one wants to admit they were duped by a simple attack. Only a fool would fall for something like that.
The problem is that the term " cracker [npr.org] " is already well established in use, a derogatory term referring to white people from the rural south.
We prefer to be called "Saltine-Americans".
