The problem is outside the problem domain Unicode attempts to solve so it isn't strange it doesn't solve it. For some other problems Unicode try to solve the result is a mess (example: bidirectional text) so that is probably a good thing.

So why don't you buy an Xeon then? Instead of complaining that one product segment (which isn't designed for your unusual requirements) doesn't have the features you want?

And both power levels and performance per power have improved strongly the latest generations so I don't know why you are complaining - if you were right you could just continue running your old machine instead of upgrading so...

By observation?

Yeah 4 hours is abhorrent!

"The System", "the machine"... I think you have your own mental problems to sort out, paranoids tend to use those kind of description of everything they can't directly control and therefore are afraid of. Anti-government and pro-gun* groups encourage this kind of shit too, I don't know if your drinking partners do...
There are a lot of people helped by your scary "System", I personally know several and you probably do too (assuming you aren't living an eremite life in your basement) - but this isn't something that one normally like to tell others.

(* I like guns, I like the idea that one should be able to own a gun, pro-gun types == weapon fetishism)

Gone from? They have already killed a number of people, do a search about them.

Indeed it is to any rational person with some insight into the problem. However we are talking about Scientologists who aren't rational and have no insight - according to them psychiatrists are routinely raping and killing people and are (as a group) worse than the Nazis.

In many countries this is already the state of things and abuses aren't common (I've never heard of one). In the US in contrast there have been a lot of reported abuses of forced containment of (allegedly) mentally ill people. Strange that...

Oh, I am wrong BTW. This is about a 4 hour period intended to allow proper procedures according to the state laws, in most other countries it is about a period long enough to properly evaluate the patient - which is in the order of days.

No.

Neither economy nor psychology are pseduo-sciences so your opinion isn't relevant.

There are wacky _parts_ of certain economy and psychology areas but that doesn't invalidate the general scientific approach of them both just like string theory doesn't invalidate physics. ;)

Nope, fission produces x-rays and neutrons that compacts and then ignites the fusion stage. The fusion stage can in turn be used to ignite a fissile stage (using depleted uranium as the bomb casing) but that's optional, produces more fallout and isn't a vital part of the design.
A thermonuclear bomb get most energy through the fusion process as initiated by a fission device.

Probably.
Where are your proof that the agencies in question knew about this backdoor (assuming it exists)?

It's okay - some of us doesn't have one at all.

That's the standard procedure if someone is suspected of crimes in Sweden, Belgium, France.

How is this relevant to this story? This is about the agencies listed being interested in using the hacking software (the deployment of which isn't a malware per se). Not about the quality of hacking team software nor the reliability of hacking team as a partner to law enforcement.

Law enforcement have more rights than common people, as long as they keep within those extended rights I don't see a problem. If one thinks they are allowed to do things they shouldn't be doing there are mechanisms available to (attempt) correcting that.
Democracy isn't a very good system but it is better than the alternatives...
