If it was the cooling system that's a no-go. Once that runs dry, heat will start to build up in the suit.

Especially not once the cooling system fails because you're swimming in it instead of it circulating.

Hot and wet, in a cramped suit. Ick.

What do you think drowning is?

I wonder if it's the battery again... if it is, that's not exactly a small subsystem.

So flip burgers while you do it, if you've no other choice.

Intern != Unpaid Intern

I don't see how their having copies of the keys precludes end-to-end encryption.

That works if it's a solid item that you can mold like that - but if it were sheets of metal, you could bolt it on wrongly etc. Granted it would certainly reduce the chances...

What stops the key from being installed wrongly?

You'd see lots of clbuttic expansion errors, I'm sure.

"I hate seeing cyclists on the road! roads are too dangerous for bikes, period."

That one doesn't seem to fit - he's pointing out that riding a bike on a road is dangerous, not assigning blame. I totally agree, it is dangerous. Please do not try to tell me that riding two wheels connected by 40lb of metal sticks at 20mph on the same path used by multi-ton vehicles going 50mph is not dangerous.

Lights and hi-vis on your clothing.

It's kind of hard for a driver to miss a strobing red light...

When was the last time you used a wheel? Lever?

Oops, you're a criminal!!

Even worse, simple machines such as the lever fall into this as well!

Let me clue you in on something.

You're at a checkpoint. There's a guy in the crowd who is clearly got something bad planned. You can do nothing, because he is "not a threat."

The guy whips out a gun and sprays the checkpoint. Several of your guys get injured. You can do nothing, because he is in a crowd of innocents. He runs into a building and drops the gun. He then walks into the street. You can do nothing. Why? Because he is "not a threat" anymore.

Our rules of engagement are over-the-top in trying to protect against collateral damage. I'm no soldier myself, but I got to listen to three of them bemoaning about this situation - a corpsman, a SIGINT guy, and a guy who's position was unclear to me but was in charge of 20 infantry.

Yet you still have people like you, who think we mow down dozens of children at a time, just for giggles.
