in the 1st place. Sharing connections so they become nodes in a wireless connection, gives oneself plausible deniability in regards what one downloads. Well anyway, to the same extent one has by running a web cafe from one's own connection.

You know Wifi was originally designed so everyone was covered by overlapping free/open Wifi, giving everyone covered "multithreaded" internet connections & thus maximum bandwidth via all this parallelism between one's wifi modem & the internet. Of course it's an honour system in regards users adding to this Wifi web / contributing to it by having their own connection at home open to others & thus becoming another node.

Android just Linux bullshit, QNX is a real realtime OS, & the favorite OS of nuclear reactors & machines that go beep in hospital.

Where as there's nothing great about Android, except the number of Android apps, & BB10 can do Android apps as well as it's own native apps

I think the British had a treaty with Quebec that let them keep their Roman/Civil Law sometime between the end of the 7 Years War & the beginning of the American Revolution.

I doubt any calculations can end in a result that indicates that junk food is cheaper than fresh fruit 'n vegies, plus the required quantity of natural balanced protein sources, prepared at home in healthy portions.

The problem is that maybe the people you are referring to lack motivation, were badly brought up, born into families of multi-generational violence/substance abuse/ignorance/welfare/etc, have mental health issues, etc,etc & thus are domestically dysfunctional.

I thought it was the DC-10 that had the door problem

You're getting the type of govt mixed up with the type of head of state.

Regardless of it's meaning in the past, today "Republic" is just a term for nations that don't have a monarch as head of state, while "democracy" is a reference to a type of govt, they are not mutually exclusive. Afterall have you ever heard of anyone describing the UK, Canada & Australia as republics?

Without tax it's the law of the jungle.

Surely those who are profiting most from how our community is structured should pay the most in tax.

Hes doing fine the way it is now & couldn't be fucked buggerising arround for no net gain to his patients.

Families coped fine without them until relatively recently.

So stop whinging & expecting life to be at your beck n call.

Even not actively, just by building a Faraday cage into their buildings. Or actively jam too, like some jails do, because significant proportion of the jail's outside.

In the US it seems many prosecutors will prosecute to the maximum, even if they think there's a large possibility the defendant is innocent or acted with little or no malicious intent.

There's there's the way they use the threat of mandatory minimums to get the defendant to plead out on the condition of snitch testimony on whatever amount of people are required, all just to run a snitch snowball to get bonuses based on forfeiture values. Look at Tulia, Texas (or was it Union, Alabama) where it seemed that that just about every black family that owned property was dragged up by the snitch snowball & got forfeitured to buggery - with no evidence what so ever except snitch testimonies forced out of people via the threat of mandatory life sentences (Coke was found in only 2 of the hundreds of families the LEOs ransacked. Even then that tiny amount of coke found matched Coke used by a paid freelance undercover cop in a previous operation)). In Western Europe the vast majority of them would not even have been facing doing any time at all, hypothetically.

You know that even with China having at least 3 to 4 times the population of the US, the US both incarcerates v& executes more people than China does, thats by the total number, NOT per capita. BTW per capita the only place with a higher incarceration rate than the US is the West Bank or Gaza (I can't remember which Palestinian Territory was mentioned when I read that).

No wonder their kids do stupid things, the parents are plain stupid themselves.

There's something to be said for a welfare bonus for sterilisation

really if it was benzos there was little risk of OD, however if they used something else.................

It's ridiculous when you see so many houses with brick fireplaces, 3 sides of which are external of the houses they're heating. Architects that design houses with fireplaces like that should be rounded up & shot; well at least made to drive cabs instead.

AS legally aquired firearms
