try that defense in court. It has worked for so many people before. Technically you are correct, but the courts have decided that depriving a corporation of potential profit is as good as asportation.

I can imagine the "Safety is #1" banners while they calibrated the massive kyber crystals.

As of former DSO and prison guard I can say with some authority, it isn't record keeping that causes recidivism. More likely is lack of opportunity, lack of education, and a severe sense of being indoctrinated in the system. Many of these guys don't KNOW how to act on their own and without supervision they go off the rails. I don't know how you categorize a generally likeable person who makes the worst possible choices in life, frequently, other than convict.

"Try the European system of treating criminals as human beings, not as a profit making workforce.
Put efforts into rehabilitation rather than being highly punitive"
Genius Idea. For profit prisons are an abomination in any country, the US included...

"We're almost always working for the worst possible people in the end, but we all need a paycheck."

Funny, that's exactly what I'd imagine the electricians and other trades who built the Death Star would've said.

Hard to feel sympathy for them when it exploded. They knew the risks.

They're guilty, they knew it and still pushed forwards with bad policies. They don't provide ANYTHING that can't be replicated quickly of from a competitor. Sick the dogs on them and let the lawyers feast. Maybe a class action AI is the correct method ? /s

This is the GAME that made PC gaming. I'm still running/making Doom/Doom2 wads and pk3 at 57. Just finished a new map by a 15 year old that wasn't born when the game was made. I'd say it had an impact on the WORLD. I'd be happy with the soundtrack as a requiem.

Said "Billionaires" will spend far more $$$ in political "donations" to avoid the 1 time tax. Just pay 10% on your earnings like the rest of us.

What next, is Beijing going to be renamed to City 17?

Don't drink the water. They put something in it to make you forget.

3,474km in diameter, but really it's not the size that counts, but the mass (and how you use it).

Yeah, it's got electrolytes.

Radar O'Reilly radioed in...He wants his Korean era military issue glasses back. He left them on your mom's nightstand.

People use Chrome because it's popular! Anyone who's anyone uses Chrome!

Another over reaction based on politics and parent apathy. Rather than be involved in your kids life and supervise the online issues, we'll just block ALL online activity. Scientist have been convinced that youth brains were being "rewired" but have failed to find any proof. It's not the electronic activity that is hurting them, its' the LACK of responsible social interaction. They grow up lacking a conscience or empathy because they never see other "real" people or suffer consequences for their bad interactions.

We live in a world destroyed by industry, but the landscape is not a burnt wasteland, it's a golden land of opportunity. It's all in how you look at it... and how much money you have.
