"Sheriff Nocco seems to be taking this threat seriously. The report says the student "was released on Wednesday from Land O'Lakes Detention Center into the custody of his mother," which means the kid was brought into a holding cell for the incident, which sounds completely unnecessary. But Nocco apparently wanted to send a message, and won't hesitate to lock up more teenagers for trying to use Skype in school."
So, uh..., why aren't we "sending a message" to the dumb-fuck faculty who are, no doubt, violating policy by using such weak access control procedures? Better question, why didn't the reporter think to ask that question?

Those who are not guilty of something have nothing to fear. Right? The rest of us can sleep easier knowing that someone is watching.

Huh? I mean, Swartz got fucked, no question about it, but what the hell are you talking about here?

How come proven liars such as Pelosi and Feinstein, and Boehner and McConnel keep on getting re-elected despite all the goddamn things that they have done?

Are the USian voters so damn stupid?

TFTFY
And yes, they are. They have voted against their own self interest more times than not in national elections for the last 40 years.

I don't even trust Google that much, to take it's results as authoritative when making important decisions. If you do, then you are a fool.

No, but I value my free time similarly to how my employer values my work time. That's the point. I'd rather not spend it schlepping that box of Tide that I need.
And yes, it does suck to be me, but not for the reasons you think.

Apparently, double entendre is just too subtle for some people to grasp.

OK, let me make it more clear, you know, so that you can't take some disingenuous smart-ass dodge like the above...
"...wealthier people have been shown to drive more recklessly and to otherwise act like self-centered pricks more often then poor people." Seriously. Take a look sometime and see which group gives more, as a percentage of income, to charity. According to the account, Jobs was a self-centered prick and should have had to pay for it, at the same effective rate as the janitor who cleaned his toilet. The fines are indeed intended to change behavior. If it doesn't hurt, it won't.

(audiophile). In the context of iTunes, which sells low-fidelity recordings in mp3 format, I do not think it means what you think it means. I'm no golden-ear audiophile, but even I can hear the difference between an mp3 and any of a half dozen lossless codecs. For all practical purposes, one can not buy quality audio in digital (no physical media) form. The reason for that is mp3, and the blame for that we may rightly lay at Apple/Jobs' feet.

Agreed. A model is cool, don't get me wrong, but nowhere near as cool as a 3D-printed real working transmission. That's "working", as in could actually be connected to a real vehicle and perform somewhere close to the original. What we're tired of is breathless hype about something that isn't even a shadow of the claim.

Consider the requirements, no..., actually read and consider them, and then try to tell me that Trello is a good fit. Nothing wrong with Trello, mind you. It's a great tool, but not for simple issue tracking of the sort the OP's talking about.

Fox News, of course. They're "fair and balanced". Right?

What's the best load for them drones? I'm thinkin' an ounce and a quarter of #4 is about right. Not the best pattern at drone shootin' range, but still plenty of knock-down energy.

Yeah, so what? This is 'murica and the free market rulez. If you don't like your ISP's fees, you can go someplace else. Right?
