The description says that a remote hacker can get admin credentials. Didn't read TFA. What I don't understand is why a router like that has any kind of management enabled on the WAN side by default at all.

Well; the drugs in the lethal injection are scarce now so they would probably prefer to only execute the guilty in instances where the injection is to be used.

Best lead by example and euthanise yourself; it would be awful to be outed as a hypocrite. ;)

I believe you might be thinking of Westinghouse/Edison. Edison had an elephant (Topsy) executed with AC to show everyone how 'dangerous' AC was. He tried to have the process become known as 'being Westinghoused'. Edison was a complete dick.

Might be a Christian thing. Like, Jesus was dis-killed on day 3. Lucky us.

No, that's abundantly clear.

Your cherry picked figures aside, I wonder about how many innocent people executed would constitute an unacceptable rate to you.

Yeah totally. Execution is suicide in exactly the same way that vandalizing someone's car is punching yourself in the face. i.e. not at all, in any conceivable way.

I would honestly have more respect for pro-death penalty people if they just admitted they get a satisfying feeling from meting out violent vengeance. I might not agree, but I could understand. For them, it seems, the idea that you might kill the odd innocent person (such as, in all likelihood, Todd Cameron Willingham) is ludicrous - despite incompetence being a hallmark of our species, and despite the obvious bloodthirsty nature of prosecutors.

The legal costs are higher, it goes on for longer, DR inmates cost more to house than general population, among many other factors.

If you are a neurotypical human you may have empathy, conscience, etc - for someone afflicted with these traits, it's patently obvious that it matters. Perhaps you are atypical in this respect.

The first thing I thought when I heard that blurred lines tune (on a bus in Portugal as it happens) I thought a fucking puking child could do a better tune. I was actually amazed at how shit it was. Didn't realise it was misogynistic or whatever til later. I just knew it was really, really shite.

You're wrong, and you're a grotesquely ugly freak. ;) Laws exist for precisely this purpose. Thank you and good night.

One could make that argument, but it would be a seriously weak one. In terms of convenience of suicide, you equate guns with knives, cars and bridges? You keep a bridge you can jump off in a drawer next to your bed? lol... I don't have much opinion on gun ownership, I don't give much of a toss one way or the other, but this is such a clear example of motivated reasoning I couldn't help it ;)

Alex and those other folks say a lot of things, they're immune to evidence. A stopped watch being occasionally right shouldn't raise eyebrows.

You beautiful man.

The prospect of this is not exactly keeping me up at night, on account of it being preposterous.
