Snowden leaks prompt 'insidious' claims about spies: UK lawmaker
Quote:
I don't know about foreign and domestic intelligence works, however I do know that military intelligence is about seeing and knowing as much as one can about the battlespace, then sift through to find actionable intelligence, which is then filtered for action-worthy intelligence; if you have one squad of deep-penetration special ops team, would you use it to hit the lightly-guarded supply outpost or attempt to kill the commander in a heavily-guarded base?

1. Think contrary of an oft-agreed fact.
2. Speak out loud on a news channel to generate attention. 3. ????? 4. PROFIT! Japanese Arrested For Printing Gun Reporting Courtesy Of Sankaku (NSFW) Quote:
3D printing is not the only way to produce guns - note that in the 1940s, Sten gun knockoffs are made from metal pipes, bedsprings, couplings, bolts and drill bits. And that is a SMG, a fully automatic weapon. I fail to see how banning 3D printers can stop home-made guns when the country scores high in Science and Maths. Maybe they should ban the Minister of Education instead.

It's not all that hard to make a projectile weapon. Humans are thinking creatures, if there's a will, there's a way. And I've heard of prison inmates making lethal crossbows from just paper and the band of their underwear... |

So, security experts and people with nothing else to do.
I'm not advocating the measure. I'm just saying, it's disingenuous to deny the 3D printing tech and the internet haven't made things much easier than they used to be. If you have to say "where there's a will, there's a way", you're already admitting it's more troublesome than downloading the blueprints and watching a tutorial video. |

Seems a bit egostistical. I can understand royalty getting their face on a coin, since that is traditional, but not in other countries.
Though it is a special event...if you want to look at it that way. We don't even put living Presidents on coins even if they are part of a set about all the Presidents. They have to be died to get on our money. The current US Presidents Dollar coins will end after 2016 because Jimmy Carter is alive and everyone after Reagan is alive. Unless someone dies before 2017 that is (George H. W. Bush is getting up there, as is of course Jimmy Carter. Bill Clinton is supposedly having health issues as well).

Game of Thrones author George RR Martin: 'Why I still use DOS'
Well, even if he connected to the internet, I don't think there's much malware which can infect it |

^ Suddenly the immense wait between books all makes sense.
He does know you can turn that stuff off right? Or just use notepad. -_- US Military Confident it Could Stop a Real Life Godzilla Attack I kinda giggled at this. He's shrugged off being hit in the face with an Asteroid which on average move faster and hit harder than any man made weapon, so I don't think any military could actually hurt him. Besides, he'd totally be BFFs if people stopped trying throw things at him (except food).
