It sounds like you have been properly trained, have the right mindset for carry and ownershp and would be willing to go through a fair and democratic vetting process to obtain a permit. I’m honestly sorry you can’t. It’s also a shame because if you did carry, the government would know exactly who you are, what guns

As a very outspoken concealed-carry advocate who is 99% sure this article will have an argument about guns in the comments, let me just be the first to say I completely agree that running away is the right thing to do. I don’t carry a gun in my home state, because apparently single women living alone who’ve been

Good, it’s a war that isn’t being waged properly. Any US citizen who wishes to be a gun owner should be licensed properly without issue, properly trained, and allowed to carry in the nation. Anyone who is unqualified should not. Criminals should be prosecuted. Banning things doesn’t work - it makes them more

Not the same price range for sure, but If HTC hadn’t screwed the pooch with the M9+ by limiting it’s markets, that’d be my beloved go to. I’ve fondled the S6 and Edge, but it still feels too past Samsung to me. Better by far, but still Samsung. On other fronts, I still can’t press the microphone on my headset cord and

I simply DO NOT TRUST Microsoft with my data. Google has been criticized a lot for their collection of user data, but MS takes it to a COMPLETELY new level! I will go back to DOS before using ANY of Microsoft’s products or services again!

no, your point is valid. I have to feel that it was weakening our bargaining position with Iran when they knew about our involvement with crap like Stuxnet that was making their nuclear program harder...and It’s hard to say what may or may not have been prevented by something like the monstermind cybersecurity

If the actions of the NSA are found to be unlawful, shouldn’t the guy be pardoned for exposing it, regardless of the method he used? Uncovering unlawful activity should be the core of the whistle-blower laws, not to be superseded by other edicts that obscure unlawful activity.

I bet it’s one of the reliquaries that were prevalent at that time. The churches would have little displays under the altar displaying the supposed bones of saints. They were in such high demand that some priests would visit other churches and steal to bring them back to their own churches. Type “reliquary box” into

Exactly: Snowden did accept the consequences, and those consequences are that he had to give up his home.

accept the consequences of his actions. He should come home to the United States, and be judged by a jury of his peers — not hide behind the cover of an authoritarian regime.

OMG! It’s so funny you wrote this Annalee - I literally just posted about Malthus over on Gizmodo in relation to a story Matt wrote. Good stuff!

You portray Ehrlich as the extremist he likely was Matt, though I wonder if you’d be open to presenting the alternate side of the story for us? Does population science fully disagree with Ehrlich’s main premise, or just his early predictions and methods of action? Earth does have a “biotic potential”, and Humans are

Overpopulation is a very real and critical problem. If you think global warming is real and is human-driven, then you have to recognize that overpopulation is a key input to the global warming problem.

Food might not be an issue, but seems like there are a lot of other potential issues with overpopulation. What about water, land usage or carbon footprint? Are there enough resources and energy for everyone to have a first-world lifestyle? Plus, what are the implications of bringing more children into a broken system,

Overpopulation is definitely on the minds of those in overpopulated places. The issue is quite real in China and India. Because it’s not possible to have infinite economical growth, it’s also becoming very difficult to find things for everyone to do in order to earn a living. At some point, the ability to produce food

And it is easy, for instance, to design interfaces for people with some basic visual difficulties including flavours of RG colour blindness and visual acuity problems. Yet many designers produce software which appears to not bother to worry about human factors.

Here’s a fun one: Try using the Skype contact list on a

Well, I'll be pleased to hear of any advances, but for now, I'm sticking with my daily dose of Celexa, because without it I vacillate between "permanently hangry" and "it's hard to get off the couch."

The (most remote starbucks I’ve been to) opened in that big bronze Buddha Ngong Ping 360 ecco village on that remote high up mountain in hong kong on Lantau Island.. last time I was there I saw a monk wearing a gold rolex and talking on his mobile phone while sitting drinking a
