Your tone would suggest that people are discouraged from denouncing their US citizenship because they will ultimately be the losers in that transaction.
How many US schmucks will it take to offset this single losers tax bill. And he isn't the only one doing this. Perhaps you over estimate "the greatest country int he world".

"Eduardo Saverin, the billionaire co- founder of Facebook Inc. (FB), renounced his U.S. citizenship before an initial public offering that values the social network at as much as $96 billion, a move that may reduce his tax bill."

And all we had to do was sell oil at below market rate to the US. (which country am I)?

His reasoning is right up there with, "I'm not gay, only my boyfriend is", type logic.

We're not "torturing" people... we're just forcefully trying to extract information from people using this new 'water-boarding' technique. No one will actually die.

Worst Godwin ever? Thanks for calling me out, I guess I automatically lose now Alex.

I will concede defeat and admit that standing by while your government rapes you is no longer the best option. I repeat, getting raped by your government is no longer a good option. The master of debate "TheHonch" has shown me the light. I am now with "TheHonch" and admit that taking up arms against an oppressive government is a viable options.

Thanks "TheHonch"

I'm with ColdWetDog. Look at historical war strategies and you'll see, once again, the Jews had the right idea. Eventually someone else will come around and save the day, we just need to wait it out in 'camps' until that day comes. Unlike traditional prisons where boredom is the enemy I heard the Jews were given quite a few busy tasks to help them pass the time. Hell, they even contributed to scientific and medical research as well.

Trust me, I agree with the previous comments. You can't regulate this because it is ultimately the driver's responsibility.

HOWEVER, it does annoy me to no end when radio ads use sirens to get your attention. Radio has a huge following for people driving... drivers are suppose to be aware of emergency vehicles... the radio should not be using FALSE ALARMS in this manner.

It desensitizes drivers... oh that... I thought it was the radio again. Now that should be regulated!

I've been on slashdot, fark, reddit... and no matter how one-sided an argument is there is always a small group of enablers or sympathizers for the other side.

Cop beats a black guy to death for running away -- I guess shouldn't have run from a cop; guilty or not...
Someone accidentally cuts off a car; other driver road rages and smashes out the windows -- should be a more careful driver then...
Child dies from malnutrition because vegan mother only eats fruit or some shit -- it is a personal decision how to raise your kids...

I scanned through the comments... and holy shit. There is no one defending this obvious cover-up. I don't know if public opinion is changing, people are fed up with government abuse... but Snowden might just be that piece of straw.

Page 9 of the slides show the locations of the 150 servers. It appears they have servers in Russia and China. I wonder how those nations feel about this?

1. I'm sure the ruling class are going to dive head first into this trend. But they sure will appreciate the momentary dip in meat prices when foodstamps are only valid for insects. After all it is the economical thing to do.
2. I can say one thing for certain... there aren't enough poor assholes on this planet to be exploited. Hopefully, these new food sources allow us to expand the population... especially in poor regions.
3. My ethics tell me... eat the rich first. The insects are a backup plan.

What happens between you and your boyfriend at night is your business.

There isn't much point fighting the natural cycle. Government gains too much power, becomes oppressive... people revolt... form new government... repeat.

I thought you could break the cycle but people literally have an animal instinct to be told what to do. When I was younger I thought people were naive, but even as I got older I heard educated adults say: "I'm not doing anything wrong so I have nothing to hide". Actual educated adults that should know better.

I was born and lived during a time of freedom so I can be thankful for being at the right part of the cycle AND that is all. If young people don't pick up the fight that is literally their loss. In fact, I'm of the opinion now that we may as well accelerate the process. Let's just take away people freedom so people finally get the point. We can try to hold on to dwindling freedom or we can aim for a revolution and a new start.

How is that ineffective? The more the government shits on people, the more it contributes to public dissent, the more public dissent and malcontent the closer people come to snapping.
It really saddened me when the government stepped in with TARP money. Sure they stopped a major financial crisis, but I wanted to see some CEOs being drawn and quartered as a deterrent for future CEOs.

The summary talks about an increase in CPU usage. If they use a dedicated H.265 chips in the future (much like they use H.264 chips now) can they not optimize the hardware to minimize CPU and power use? I'm just wondering from the perspective of mobile/phone users if H.265 is going to dominate or will H.264 still be the standard for mobile.

During my limited time spent outdoors I think I've seen what you speak of. Except it was a blinking light with a period of about 24 hours. Also, it hurt my pale skin...
