Which has absolutely nothing to do with my questioning that active THC remains in the body with a similar pattern to its matabolized parts.

I have no idea the reasonableness of the limits set, but it does look like they are talking about people that currently have THC in them, and are actively trying to test that, unlike employers.

There used to be, I feel like things are worse than they were 7 years ago now.

Compiz was stable, drivers were good, motherboard support was better, Gnome 2 just spoke to me in it's looks.

I haven't built a system for a while, but the last one I built won't boot with a USB drive plugged in, the desktop environments were shaky, video acceleration meant playing h.264 videos, and that was a no go. Gallium still isn't working.

Ubuntu 7.04 was for me, the peak of usable, workable Linux vs other OSes. 7.10 introduced a locking while heavy disk bug, and Linux in general has been frustrating since then (I've dabbled in Linux, or run it as my primary desktop for over 15 years).

I personally see:

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

As a right to privacy. It is spelled out, not just stated that it exists. The edges of what that means for legislating things is in the jurisdiction of the courts.

It's very difficult to pierce the corporate veil for a properly setup and run company (as in run by the letter of the law, including previous rulings).

I worked for a company that essentially dissolved itself, moving almost all assets, to a new company, and plaintiffs were still not able to get past the block (certain amounts had to be left behind, and most debt was moved, it was over a dispute with a union that the new company was formed, but lawsuits filed after the switch were not able to get through).

Hardly technically inclined. And hardly a group of homosexuals.

It was proposed in a column of Savage Love (Dan savage is not technical), and acted upon (after the definition contest) by his readers, which I suspect are majority heterosexuals.

Not trying to nip pick, but portraying an act of protest with broad support as a homosexual conspiracy plays into the right's opinion of who wants equality, and who is appalled by people such as santorum.
