Right, so when its not used *in* counterinsurgency operations its used to set up the conditions for a nice long running counterinsurgency operation.

Still being used purely for counterinsurgency operations.

But they aren't being used as weapons of war. They just do shit like bomb weddings. And goats.

I don't know that I'd call it a 'major weapon of war' these days, more counterinsurgency.

I wonder if that would work for cane toads?

My guess would be either the pigs would be poisoned by the cane toads or their meat would become poisonous.

Australians are just knowledgeable enough to stay the fuck away from them, that doesn't mean they aren't dangerous.

Box jellies, blue ring octopus and a snake whose toxin is especially nasty to primates. Me, I stay away from Aussie, its obvious that it never wanted humans in the first place!

So in the US they have imperial expansion? Of course, that explains a lot!

you might want just that mod but maybe you are or are not aware of the safety features that were compromised by the mod. At that point who is liable? Is it the (possibly anonymous) authors of the mod or the person who applied them to the car?

Yeah

In Soviet Russia car fines you!

wait, isn't that what they are doing with fines?? Taking private property (money) for public use (paying for policing) without just compensation.

The USA 'exports' 'intellectual property' problems to the rest of the world.

if you rooted your car and installed something like 'Cyanogenmod for cars' which unlocked some features like exceeding the speed limit... and then sat there reading the newspaper...

I guess the Bahamas could do some discrete 'lobbying'; "hey mr US Senator you wouldn't want this secret bank account coming out would you, what with elections coming up and all that?"

When I was in a certain 3rd world country, which shall remain nameless, I found that a router at the National Datacenter had snmp public exposed to the world. It was interesting to find that it had ports named for all the ISPs in the country and a mirror port carrying lots of data, the volume of which corresponded to the sum of all the ISP's ports... and all these ISPs routes went through that National Datacenter.

Also SNMPv3 is very poorly supported by many monitoring tools.

I sometimes wonder if SNMPv3 is *deliberately* made awkward and easy to misconfigure, somewhat like IPSEC...
