and my response to that is basically

" To those i have not offended yet please stand by i will get to you shortly"

fun fact archive.org has a torrent for The Liberator.

Guns are easy to make with the proper tools

or in the case of say Bethesda games where they can be "stability impaired" even running NATIVE.

You don't want to add "while on fire" to the problem of crossing an olde Wooden Bridge (or one that was made with 3d printed parts)

1 somebody is going to make a mint selling metallic leotards (blocks the scanner)

2 somebody is going to hack them to grab the images that are stored (and yes there will be stored images)

3 somebody will either attack the scanners or have a device that is triggered by these things do something NASTY

well it would be a bit clearer to put it as
7B+ or ~7E9 but given that a lot of the numbers are pulled from somebodies Rectal Storage Unit getting as close to the current world population as the normal pub patron gets when playing darts at 22:00 is fine.

You could have a laptop with just the factory stickers on it but if its odd looking it will still get you flagged.

try getting past them with a Purple/Mint green laptop.

or maybe not freaking out every time some random bit of forest goes up so that the muck and underbrush doesn't build up so much.

Also i think that if you live in the middle of a Forest you might want to plan/build with fires in mind.

have the AirForce do Live Fire Exercises to help fight fires?? I Would say GO FOR IT just follow the normal protocol and make sure the "range" is clear.

"ATTENTION THIS AREA WILL BE USED AS A LIVE FIRE EXERCISE IN 3 HOURS PLEASE LEAVE THE AREA NOW IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO DO SO PLEASE INDICATE SO BY SIGHT SOUND OR SIGNAL. ATTE..."

How hard would it be to design an airdroppable package that had a SatLink , a wifi hotspot and Solar? power (with battery backup)??

If you want to err "Church it up" a bit you could have aid supplies form some of the packaging.

In fact SLASHMIND CHALLENGE TIME

lets see what y'all com up with

and the way they are "fixing" it just makes it WORSE

example
S'hogan from Whackistan breaks into say FITBITs datacenter and taps into Steve Rogers account. He then starts logging the activity. One day the activity STOPS if he is doing his job then he will be on the phone to his commander to report that "Rogers has gone dark" (this means some nasty folks are going to be ducking a shield very soon).

what they should do is have any DOTMIL fitbits link to a server in the Pentagon/Cheyenne Mountain/[LOCATION REDACTED]

a show that has travel to the ends of the universe (both time and space) might possibly has a few scenes on the other side of The Pond??

for Doctor Who a setting in the US is like having a scene down the street at the local Chemist

the best and only response to this is

do we need to get the Matriarchs of Computing to explain why this is a BAD IDEA to the point where it qualifies as EVIL BAD AND WRONG??

and yes for the snarkist it is technically misspelled

with water resistant/wireless tech there is no reason that children could not be taught OUTSIDE in a garden setting (of course have a normal classroom for when it is too wet, cold, or hot to be safe).

as long as its "just dirt" its not a tragic thing for a kid to get muddy

well first off a lot of drug companies tinker with existing drugs just so they can do a patent refresh so thats a lot of wasted effort.

What i would like to see is a lockout of patents on drugs unless they can be proven to be NEW

1 same active ingredient but fewer side effects (minor edits allowed)
2 more effective delivery method (or less invasive ie convert shot to pill)
3 cures/ treats disease that had nothing
4 combines different drugs used together when they could not be taken at the same time
5 replaces a number of drugs normally taken together with a single drug
6 replaces a "fragile" drug with a stable one (shelf stable insulin or Nitro)
7 wider "effective" dose to lethal dose range

I also think its criminal that Medicad can't get discount/bulk prices

And how many stories have we had in the last year of %Company Big Enough to Know Better% having a data breach?? even if you limit to Banks and other Corps that should know better due to FEDERAL LAW you still have a nonzero number.

here is the problem
1 there could be a near real-time record of everywhere you have been (note this will most likely NOT be used in your favor if you are suspected of a crime)

2 errors in the record or deliberate hacking of the record: It would be easy to change the record to say you were at a Fetish Shoppe (or something else that could get you in some sort of trouble) or for somebody to say "oh he parked his car at this location but obviously walked to %suspectlocation%"

3 since when is going to a Mall Probable Cause for being an illegal alien??
