For a quick understanding of North Korea from a strategic perspective, here is an insightful series on North Korean strategy by an American physicist and business strategist/entrepreneur who visited: http://joshuaspodek.com/north-korea-strategy-preview. It clarifies a lot of why things are the way they are there.
Also this book, based on that series.
You DO know how the TSA recruits people, right...? They put adverts on pizza delivery boxes
You couldn't make this shit up it you if you hired a whole team of comedy writers...
You probably could if you hired a team of tragedy writers.
"In my opinion, the French firm Lyonnaise de Garantie to a man, are worse than crooks. They are the most foul and debase degenerates, slime of the lowest order. Fuck them, they are pox on the world and a waste of air. To call them a pack of worthless cunts would bring shame to roving packs of worthless cunts. Jean-Luc Berho, the VP of the company cannot bring himself to orgasm without unless he chokes a dog to death. Jean-Jacques Olivié, the president of that slithering pack of reptilians, cannot be trusted not to accidentally choke himself to death if left unattended with a stale croissant. May he catch syphilis from a drunken Armenian mule. Insurance frauds could learn something from these thieves, as could lamprey and other tubular blood sucking vermin."
In that case, can crooks sue Google for including Lyonnaise de Garantie in a search with them?
"The true crux is the immoral and illegal decision to take something without reimbursing the owner."
You have one measure for morality and legality, but others don't have to share it.
Gandhi didn't reimburse the legal (British) owner of the sole right to sell salt in India when he sold the salt he got from evaporating sea salt.
The members of the Boston Tea Party didn't reimburse the owners of the tea.
I'm not equating this case with those, just pointing out what happens when you have no flexibility in interpreting laws. You end up forced into untenable positions.
I was thinking about correcting Maximum Prophet, but held back. If we're correcting each other, 67*pi is not 210.49 or 210.38. It's a transcendental number. It's a slippery slope if we slack on meaning of equals signs.
Memorizing 3.14 tables is memorizing something different than pi.
Back to the topic of tau day, I found the argument that tau makes a better circle constant than pi compelling. I got a PhD in physics and dealt with more than my share of 2*pis.

Self-wiping my ass!
They should be happy. They fabricated the concept of Satan so if the internet helps people spread the idea, it's helping spread their fabrication.
If they don't want it spread, don't make up the concept.
I say they take off and nuke the entire drives from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.
It is very difficult to prophesy, especially when it pertains to the future.
