..why would the feds have it? it's not basic info to store of your citizens really.

also storing credit card numbers while rampant in the industries is also something feds shouldn't be having and furthermore it's not something any credit card processing business should be doing ether(payment processor 'gateways' excluded, it's all in the rules if you start processing cc payments.. even if you do recurring charges you as a charger company don't actually need to store the full card data).

it doesn't really take cia classified intel to realize where the rebels military equipment is coming from, just a few pictures is enough. furthermore hey, it's just a few months after they did the same shit in Crimea with the little green men from mars(who weren't russian but used Russian military equipmen and spoke Russian and came from Russia..).

and the cossack leader is insane.. last he tried to pass off was that the plane was loaded with dead bodies and that its a pr operation by the ukrainean government.

basically, the fucks don't understand anything about the world beyond 50 kilometers from their home, which pretty much explains why they so much want to be part of russia(since they're speaking russian) and not the EU, even if they're likely to receive bigger economical benefits from the EU and buy stuff then with more money from Russia if they so desire Russian things. Maybe Russia now has to change the cossack leader to someone else and think a little bit about who it lets press the big red buttons.

i doubt many people accustomed to fps's get motion sickness when playing with rift. I certainly don't.

however the dude is peddling a space sim, not an fps.

so, fuck him and his opinion.

(for the record, there's some people who get motion sickness just watching someone else play fps on a normal screen.. so could just as well claim that fps's can't work at all)

well.. they do have some freedom.

the michelin stars don't just go up and up every year you know, but maybe you have to be a professional drun... eater to be taken seriously with your criticisms.

don't know what the original review was like, but if it's french and they were angry they probably wrote something like "there was dogshit in the sauce".

the fall from grace is for Thor, this Thor then takes the Mjolnir and goes on as Thor while Thor does something else(drinks in a pub or something).

but it is this Thor that is then the "Thor of the marvel universe".

makes perfect sense? of course not. it's just Thor jumping the Thor.

I don't get it how they say that is not Thor as the character but at the same time say that it is Thor as if Thor was some title.

like, I could understand if the plot took Peter Parker down on some road and someone else started saying that he/she was Spiderman. but that marvel would take Peter Parker, say that the plot makes him do something and some woman just starts calling her Peter Parker and that she is now the Peter Parker of the marvel universe..

like, wtf. why not label it as it is apparently in the plot: some woman starts wielding the mjolnir and calling herself Thor.

the receipts would need to be anonymous and hence not signed.

unless of course you really want to change how the anonymous, non-sellable non-bullyable voting works in most free countries.

but is this a voting machine or a program used to tally up all the votes from the districts? which could be done with an excel sheet or manual quite easily.

yeah it's really nice when you have 20 notifications on the screen flashing designed by designers who only have the goal of you clicking the app open again.

basically that's the only design goal app development committees have - and they'll try if it works by tracking if you click it.

if it's evidence relating to any "regular" normal crime they should have no trouble asking Dublin coppers for assistance for obtaining it.

if they just "want to look for making sure"(ie spying/fishing).. then they might need a better explanation to the irish than what their own appointed judges need.

such evidence is not beyond reach... basically they don't need these new powers if they intend to play by the old rules.
