Sorry that you don't understand how science works. If your brain is capable of it, you should examine how that lack of understanding of how science works has allowed you to believe in magical beings.

I suspect part of the reason why women, Latino-Americans and African-Americans aren't well represented in the science classrooms is because of an over subscription by women, Latino-Americans, and African-Americans to sociology majors like women's studies, Chicano/Latin-American Studies and African-American studies. While these are completely legitimate courses of study, I suspect they are leading women, Latino-Americans and Afirican-Americans away from the more employment friendly science majors.

You'd think they'd actually save money if they just hard wired the LED into the camera's power source. If the camera has power, the LED is on. I'm sure that would cost them less, not more.

Might I recommend the book "Stasiland" about the East German secret police, spying on it's own citizens, which due to their spying were able to prevent any politician from countering them because of the black mail material they had on every person (including the politicians and their families.)

BTW, if you get a chance, the opinion and the dissenting opinion are worth reading. It is amazing how incompetent our Supreme Court is in interpreting something as basic and straight forward as the 4th and 5th Amendments.

[IANAL:] Unfortunately you're wrong about this. In Caballes v. Illinois the Supreme Court found that a dog can be run around any vehicle during a traffic stop. If the dog signals, the officer then has probably cause to search a vehicle. The only limitation on this is that if the dog is not on the scene at the time of the stop, that the stop cannot be prolonged to wait for the dog to arrive. They can only hold you for as long as it would reasonably take to conduct the business of a traffic stop.

"NSA decides it doesn't care what the constitution says and keeps on doing what it wants."

Yes, it would.

That one had the wrong link. Due to Slashdot's lack of an edit button, I fixed it and posted an advisory on the other to mod it down.

Would it kill Dice to install an edit button?
