Warren v District of Columbia. Police are not obligated to "protect" you. It all about revenue.

I've seen this down with Walking Dead and Doctor Who on iTunes. Probable others, but I don't remembe them.

How about installing agressor apps for driving? Jailbreaking the car AI? I see a darker side to all this.

I found that Battlestar writers to be utterly ignorant to military issues from big to small. They may have had some consultants early on, but they either didn't ask them questions or ignored to what they were told past the first 4 openers. And those first shows you had to get past this network issue that seemed a massive exchange of Easy for Security. For me it often blew my suspension of disbelief. Nobody top to bottom acted as though they were in a war that held a zero survivability outcome. I couldn't believe what I was seeing for planing of military ops. Of course the other option in a story about a technology advanced race battling is a show that lasts 10 minutes with a Struss-ian outcome via some sort of gravity bomb deployed to the starts of the inhabited worlds. Anyway.

Now here is one more thing I have to buy before it's banned for "public safety" reasons.

To add a thought. I think it's an artiest mindset. They are having such a good time making the film that they go to far, add to much.... Didn't you do that to art projects? I did.

Eloquent short version: Sure you can fuck big business, but they'll fuck you way harder.

Like you I have privacy concerns with Facebook. But after X years I have to wonder what damage FB has done to in any regards to my information? I get less junk mail then ever before, I don't see targeted web ads (does anyone?) and I am not a huge consumer other then my esoteric areas of interest. Where is the harm of Facebook? So for you not worth it and for me it is. Both are acceptable positions but a class action lawsuit seems not applicable? How could the criteria for harm be shown?

This kind of thing is only possible in places that have firearm permits. Those federal yellow forms that we fill out to buy a gun legally can't have the gun buyers information transcribed. We have no state permit system here, the yellow form must stay on file in physical form in storage at the gun shop (ideally in a poorly wired connex)

Far more fun and a better use of money to disable the police band. Every easy in the US for police departments that do not encrypt their communications.

I think every combat soldier we (USA) have should be being doped as part of their readiness program. Controlled of course like all medications for risk factors, abuse, etc.

I noticed this about a year ago when my kids were watching Fern Gully. They are almost exactly the same movie.

I can't believe anyone in this day will give any information to someone that cold calls them.

About 5 years until they hit the market?

Anecdotally, I used Alibaba more in the last year then I did eBay (I live and work in the US).
