If Walmart is really the bad actor, why did it take the DOJ so long to indict them? The DEA has a database tracking *every* single pain pill: https://www.washingtonpost.com... The federal government (DEA is part of the Department of Justice) had all of this information in near real-time, but they just let it go, and then bring indictments years later?

The last time I had that level of quiet was for a few days after 9/11. Is the juice worth the squeeze?

So, do you want your fridge to forward spam, or store it?

You mean stealing Cisco source code? https://www.wsj.com/articles/S... https://www.mercurynews.com/20...

Maybe: the ATT/HBO spat with DIshNetwork is going on a year, now. (I'm so glad I wasn't hooked on Game of Thrones)

The problem right now is that there is absolutely *no* threat of jail-time for CxO's, no matter *what* professional crime they do ( and, darn little chance for unprofessional crime, but that's another thread).

Actually, more Boy Scout troops in the US were sponsored by the Church of Latter Day Saints (Mormons). They were much of the impetus behind the revising of what "and morally straight." in the Scout Oath means. And, they left in droves when Scouting was opened to girls.

You may know Heathrow, but you don't know a thing about firearms, and not much about aircraft operations. Firearms: Why use a rifle/pistol? A shotgun has a maximum range of about 300 yards. It was *designed* to hit flying targets. In terms of the risks of collateral damage, how about looking at the number of casualties on the ground from the Battle of Britain? Ya know, the one where there was massive air combat over a large urban area (London). Aircraft: so, you have to clean up the debris. You have to do that on a regular basis, due to ground accidents (you didn't think that there would be no collisions between all those trucks that run around the field, did you?), animals (it's a *grassy field*), and wind blown debris. What you're looking for is a zero-risk, zero side effect solution. 'Taint no such thing.

So the classified materials he leaked were: "Protected Search Warrant Materials". If i understand correctly, the entirety of his search warrant was secret. And, he's being charged with leaking, so the "secrets" are already out there. So, it's secret because it's *not* secret. This smells rather "Catch-22" to me.

Ya ever look at the death and injury rates for that? Does your employer take out insurance on you?

May I offer: VW Passat, circa 2000/2001 Chevrolet SIlverado pickup trucks with DuraMax Diesel engines (The differences between LLY/LBZ/LMM all happened in the *middle* of a year https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...) (I've owned both of these). In the 80's, Toyota was notorious for changing sheet metal mid year. Supercars? I think not

cpio and bz2?

So, how is FB being sued in a court in San Francisco for violating an Illinois law? Yeah, I get that it's a class action, and bumped up to federal court, but still. I'd expect this to play out in Illinois state courts, with Illinois plaintiffs, and FB having to get some Illinois representation, at least for the trial portion. Once it gets to appeals, sure, then it gets to the Federal level.

It *looks* like English, but reads like something that went 3 rounds with bad translation software. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.

Not quite: you can keep the personalized plate, but you have to pay a fee to keep it (it's the California DMV: there's *always* a fee): https://www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/... However, if you keep 2 plates, the state will not ever issue another pair of plates with the same number (they don't want 2 vehicles with the same plates), so in the past, you just kept the plates.
