a biotech startup working in Ireland... bla bla bla... so that new medicinal (and, perhaps recreational) "marijuana" can be grown in a lab—no plants necessary.

If they are working with yeast in Ireland their goal is to make beer that has alcohol THC and CBD.

Oh. Regarding "The fireworks display vs. strafe bomber war" thing in the middle east.

Lakes in the Dallas Fort Worth area have more trees growing in them than all the parks combined. Do like they do with White Rock or Bachman lakes.

+5 w00sh!

Google does that for them for free. No, I am not a Google hater. Google collects data. The shitheads tell them to give it up or enjoy being fucked over.

Content filtering is mandatory in K12 schools and can be fairly expensive. Hardware in schools take a beating and need more frequent replacements. If you think network equipment is bulletproof do some work for a school. You can grill food on some of their routers. If it were my decision, there would be 10G network to all public schools and companies would be allowed to bid to be providers using bandwidth branching from those hops. It would push down costs, create an open business model, increase bandwidth to all areas of cities, and move schools closer to were they need to be technologically.

So not true. If you are part of the USA "Prison Industrial Complex" you are exempt.

It is all about taking EP to another level.

Oh look. There is a nut-job named Bakr on that side of the world too.

FTW!

On the flip side of that, anything with BoringSSL will not be restricted from exporting outside of the U.S. /snark

I think OpenSSL should be broken up into pieces that work together so different parts can be worked on separately. Needless to say I think the OpenBSD group has the better, more achievable for open source, path for the future of the library. I'm not a hater of all things Google; but, I don't think "in-house" code is a good choice for the GNU parts of Linux/BSDs

College is about banks making money on government backed loans? Who'da thunk.

I was told a house without wheels was a step up. Are you suggesting there is something wrong with living in a UPS cardboard box?

Why do I think "narrow and prescribed uses" does not mean "find a lost hiker". It has been my experience that plenty of aircraft are in the sky when there is a wildfire. I don't see why the police department would need to add more.
