The fact that so many people mess themselves up on legal amphetamines and opiates is unfortunately why there is so much opposition to legalizing drugs. I don't care what you put in your body (legal or otherwise), its your body and your

Some pro-gun organizations were supportive of the bill, including the NSSF (a lobby group of gun retailers and gun manufacturers ... not hard to see why they were pro the bill). Ultimately, the bill would have significantly increased manufa

He was a great man, maybe the Greatest who ever lived in my lifetime, he prevented so much bloodshed and demonstrated a level of forgiveness I doubt we will witness again for a very long time. I still find it hard to believe South Africa en

I find it really creepy. Do a single search for a pop or movie star on Google.com and it remembers and Google Now alerts you to news about the person. I have disabled Google Now and Location Services (the service that tracks your location a

As it happens, aside from a church, I also attend a place of worship for another religion which I do not belong to, nor have/will I ever. But I attend as often as I can for cultural and social reasons, including participating in religi

Did you actually read it? I linked to it specifically because of the methane claim. I found it linked to by the NY Times. The PDF quotes county officials who found no link between the methane and fracking. The methane was determined to be o

I don't know about the first, but the methane contamination is pure FUD. Those claims in gasland have been debunked: http://energyindepth.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/Debunkin...

Seems like a pretty simple installation. They are just monitoring (see the Brazilian installation). If they really do need them, why not just contract it out to a US firm, who simply relay the data. That should satisfy the spies. Is an accu

They can just implement cruft in microcode rather than silicon. In the meantime everyone using AES for full disk encryption gets a nice speedup.

McCain wants him fired because he did cover up the shenanigans (crimes) well enough. How fucked up is that?

It does not make sense for the government/Navy to have disaster relief ships on high alert (like the Marines are for example). The cost of maintaining that high alert status is high and the money would be much better spent nearly provi

I love the downvotes for correcting some ridiculous nationalistic propaganda (that India has never attacked anyone in 3000 years). I guess that's what they are teaching in Indian schools today. (Pre-colonial Indian history is currently

Maybe it's a joke I do not understand, but your country has been a battleground for years, kingdoms attacking other kingdoms for 1000s of year and more recently every so often Indian troops fire accross the line of control killing Paki

Even just a fresh coat of paint would prevent those tram cabins from rusting. Even the mining company, who I assume has cash, does not bother.

Your outburst just lost me as a potential user. If you don't want public feedback don't promote your "email client" on a public website. If you prefer the login-wall circle jerk of Quora, keep your promotions there.

The funny thing is that despite being caught out doing this a while ago with the S4, they have no choice but to continue doing it regardless how embarrassing it becomes. If they don't, their next generation devices may score only sligh

Babies are also conceived near fracking sites. I wonder if there is a connection ... Methane coming up from the earth is not uncommon. Considering that 10,000s or 100,000s or more years worth of decayed plants and animals were buried under

Wow, this guy got downvoted fast and unfairly in my opinion. He stated a fact. I don't know what the Nigeria attack is, but in the three other attacks he listed the enemy is known and in two of those attacks they wore uniforms. Drones

I think that attitude is very naive. Obamas actions in the near future will reveal all. If he was lied to and deceived, he will apologize publicly and he will reign down vengeance on those who lied to him (unless he is completely spineless
