Comment Re:Those who said the US wanted him were called cr (Score 1) 929

Funny how many American apologists were all over themselves to scream that the US never wanted him in the first place, and that it was all just conspiracy theory that they were trying to lay their hands on him. And yet, the instant he's out of the embassy, there's a US extradition warrant waiting for him. Funny that, it's almost as if this was an obvious thing right from the start....

The narrative has changed. We're now living in a world full of bots who will make pro-Chinese posts on any Slashdot article slightly critical of the Chinese government. There's ample evidence the same is happening for anything regarding the US government. The mood on Assange here on Slashdot has suspiciously shifted to "he deserves to be jailed".

Being in orbit definitely means you're still in the orbitted celestial body's sphere of influence. You can't orbit without a gravity well to bend your trajectory into an ellipse.

What I think the article means to say is that the disc has been placed in a location where the local gravity well is not dominated by the Earth.

Where's he get the gun, since it was illegal for him to buy it? Will the seller be charged?

The 3-D printed aspect is stupid, he 3-D printed attachments to a gun, the headline leads one to believe he 3-D printed himself a gun, but hey, it's a msmash story, so inaccurate/misleading headlines are the norm... sadly.

He 3-D printed the lower receiver, which is the part that has the serial number and is the part that is considered a "firearm" from a legal point of view.
