And yet we continue to dance around the US Politics that first of all allowed the rise of ISIS, allowed it to strengthen and thrive, and now allows it to continue.........

"She says she doesn't want the burden of being with someone who is depressed,"

In the spirit of honey-potting casual users, there is really nothing that prevents malicious actors to put up honey-pot WiFi traps. I'm not even sure under which statue it would be illegal.

Nooooo. The 'current system' allows flight attendants to cater to their own spur of the moment frustrations, frights, and prejudices and allows them to be galactic SOBs whenever they want to put a passenger in their place.

Having grown up on the AFC in the early 70s' including the raiders and boston patriots, Suh is not much more than a petulant third-grader mis-behaving in the hope that he'll be thrown out of class and get to go home.

And sometimes, the unreasonable boss is just a careerist-dick.....

I'd welcome any rational discussion of 'impaired' (by whatever cause) driving that doesn't include any of the for-profit guilt-propaganda from MADD.

Automated rice cookers are a surprisingly flexible alternative to the traditional 'crock-pot'. Using the same appliance for multiple purposes is a nice thing too.

All well and good, but being openly vulnerable at work is the perfect time for an opportune bully to drive you out of a job. Careful out there.

How many cars, including a couple of McLarens, has Rowan Atkinson crashed?

I'm patiently waiting for the first home-enthusiast SAM suitable for anti-drone use...

Given enough low-latency secure bandwidth and a little bit local situational intelligence, any fly-drive-float by wire thing can be remote controlled.....

I need a wallet that is just big enough to double as a passport holder. Needs to have an internal slot to grab the cover page of a passport and then fold up decently.

Dust off the old arsenal ship concept, give it the legs to hang with a CVBG, but also the brains to be capable of independent action and host/mothership a dozen or so true LCS hulls. Something like a stretched LPD-21 hull with two or three Mark 54 guns geared for LRLAP. Recycle the CWIS and Mk41/57 VMS clusters from…

best/worst guess: one of the aft stabilizer booms ripped off as the ship went trans-sonic

Well, seeing as I own 5 shares of RCI Entertainment just for fun, I may as well buy a few shares in Ferrari for the same reason.

The Spirit of John Paul Vann lives on......

The Sovs used to, and presumably the Russians still do, have a serious fuck-ton of pre-set launch locations whose position is known with a high level of precision. These don't have to be anything more than a metal plate screwed into a tree along the side of a road somewhere.

From a tactical-surprise and survivability…
