Not all terrorists are Muslims. Not by a long shot.

The insinuation that he is Muslim is yours, not mine.

Russian made cars might get 13,000 miles to a tank of gas, but us capitalist pigs have to stop every 400 miles for gas. Even if it was a train tunnel, no train on this planet can go 13,000 miles on one load of fuel. Then you have the pesky problem of ventilation.

"hat are we left with? keep the door open and we have murderous hijacking? "

Yes we have to accept that 0.001% risk of a MURDEROUS HIJACKING

You have a better chance of dying in your bathtub at home by a terrorist hiding behind your shampoo.

"Any method of getting in from the passenger compartment would be vulnerable to coercion."

not if you have an air marshall with an AA12 shotgun full of beanbag rounds right there. There are very simple answers, the airlines are whiny bitches that claim they cant afford it, and that is the center of the problem.

3 crew on flight deck for all aircraft, Let the pilots rest and get good sleep, and2 very well armed angry air marshalls on every flight. Solves 100% of all "terrorisim" problems.

Sadly the people in charge of security that have zero clue as to what to do, and the airlines whiny executives disallow the correct answer.

Ot that they haven't slept. I know several airline pilots, they are told to fly even when they are very tired or when sick.

It's a single switch. Dont make it sound like he pushed a dresser in front of the door.

As long as the media companies can sell the rights to their product to individual companies in other nations, you will never see an end to geoblocking. It's part of the business model of making profit from as many opportunities as possible.

Why would CTV here in Canada pay for the rights to broadcast "Gotham" if Canadians could just watch the internet streams from the US directly? Why would the BBC pay for the rights to broadcast CTV's "Orphan Black" if British citizens could just watch the CTV streams from Canada for free?

It's all about the money, and the "cost" of piracy is a pittance compared to the profits they earn with the current model.

The fact that no attack occured gives the talking heads leeway to claim there was no "terrorist attack." That does not mean the fellow flying the plane at the time didn't have sympathies for terrorists or had been outright radicalized.

They also hate calling something a "terrorist attack" if there isn't a pre-announced political message for the reasons behind the attack.

Myself, I have a feeling they're going to learn a few things about him during the investigation that they'd rather were not true.

No, they listened to a sales droid who lied about it being available and someone having had it before.

I mean making sure it's currently installed and working on the say-so of the current house owner.

If the NIMBYs have a problem with windmills "destroying the view", imagine how they'd react to this plan if it were enacted here in North America.

... hm... my next home purchase might just have to have a conditional clause that if I can't get broadband, the deal is off...

You know, like how you can back out once you get an appraisal and learn that there are termites.

Kinky. But, hey, if making Lego dildos and shoving them up your ass is your thing, knock yourself out.

You can probably even find a website where like-minded freaks share their pictures of their escapades. *LMAO*

Here's a thought. If internet access is that important to you, make sure you don't spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on a house that doesn't already have high speed installed.

Just a thought...

Yeah, I want my home automation systems to be dependent on my DSL link so that the furnace can go out if SaskTel hiccoughs.

I want my refrigerator to be hackable from the internet so all my food can spoil.

I want someone who is into doxing to be able to flash my house lights randomly for giggles.

IoT: Just say "No!"

Dont worry, next year will be ruined by the hotels. They already announced there will be a 20% increase in hotel prices next year.

2 years ago it was a lot better, this year is probably my last year as I just cant afford $600 a night for a 4 night minimum stay anymore Plus $80 a day parking at the hotel. Makes my VIG passes look cheap in comparison.
