It does seem odd that a defense budget would need to pony up so much for craft that are only useful for invading.

I'm also surprised everyone still hates Germany this much and considers that match a defeat rather than a victory.
Too soon?
You're just bitter you lost.
Also, why do non-USAsians cower behind anonymity?
Alberta is the most conservative part of Canada
Then fuck them. Why are we spending money to help racists?
Alberta also contributes more to our national economy than it receives from it. (unlike most red states)
Now we're all going to die of an alien disease.
Doesn't NASA watch any sci-fi?
Well, I do sincerely apologize for my unkind last statement. That was not compassionate and I suspect like most people you have redeeming qualities.
But in 2014 I am amazed at the bigotry expressed against people who vote differently. That is very ignorant. It's gotten to the point where people convince themselves anyone who votes ______ is pure of heart and and anyone who votes ________ is incapable of human decency. It takes a lot of work for political parties to make us that dumb.
You pretend to know me.
I have actually lived in a trailer.
Moreover, I know quite a few people who vote each way who are either compassionate or not.
Also, you are a douchebag.
You liberal hippies and your math are what is wrong with America these days.
I have learned to trust that lowering costs for the rich will benefit me and my trailer-dwelling family far more than increasing our wages.
This is also a good reminder that anyone can have a modern web browser.
Now that browsers are auto-updating this is a good time for us as developers to weed out all the non-updating browsers. I've not been a big fan of browser exclusion but after waiting so many years for all the garbage versions of IE to die (<= IE 10) I've become a grumpy old man. You can have notices appear when an outdated browser is found and link the user to a better life. e.g. http://browser-update.org/
If someone actually prefers to be left out, that should not hold everyone else back anymore.
How are "developer" features not features for the end user? Don't users interact with web pages?
By that logic you could argue that HTML 2.0 form support is only a developer feature. The fact that it enables the end user to input data doesn't make it a feature for that end user?
why does an app ( from google play) which just produces fart sounds ( just like 80% of the other apps) want permissions to access my browser bookmarks , call information, data store and what not
Yes, it seems like every single app now needs full control of our lives. I'm not happy about granting such sweeping powers where they are clearly unnecessary.
Except the apps from f-droid, for some dumb reason open source apps tend not to overreach on permissions and snooping.
Oh, but I guess now we can assume those are 33% malware since it's not the play store.
Why are only Americans capable of doing fusion research?
Because only Americans live and work in France.
While we're at it let's make a stamp of Adolf Hitler. He also was a bad person who advanced technology.
Heisenberg may have been here.
