I for one have never taken a whiff of my gaming rig. though while upgrading it I can say that older hardware (metal encased disc drives) DEFINITELY have a pungent smell to them. Whether or not newer hardware has any latent odors from the manufacture process I cannot say.
At this rate we really should start considering double penalties for out of line cops. Being a Law Enforcement Officer means exactly what the title says, Enforcing the law.
Nothing more. Nothing less.
To me at this point, being a cop is really just being a member of a street gang or mafia. there's a dark, cynical person inside me that thinks we'd be better off going back to wild west style lawlessness... but that would just make things even worse.
If any cops read this, PLEASE On behalf of humanity. Have the courage and the wherewithal to enforce even your own brothers in blue.
I would not be surprised if those who did apply only used it to watchdog officer misconduct, which in turn will prompt LAPD to shut down the crowd source op.
"perhaps the political landscape can be reconfigured in a more effective way to actually deal with the issues of tomorrow, rather than mere bickering about the issues of the past."
That's rather optimistic Mike. we keep electing and replacing congressmen every 2 to 4 years yet the new boss ends up being the same as the old boss, to borrow a lyric from The Who. Partisan pride has made any issue a partisan issue just to be on the opposite spectrum of the opposing party. This problem applies to both republicans AND democrats. as long as pride and partisanship dictates the divide, then government will remain the same as the world around it changes.
this is what Rep. Steve king is feeling.
Fear that immigration will lead to more bombings.
Fear that foreigners bare ill intent to those who call america home.
Fear that fuels the fire of the bomber(s)
When you let fear affect your better judgment, you've already lost.
This reminds me of a previous techdirt article, you know, the one about someone trying to sue cellular carriers for being liable for allowing possibly infringing text messages. I forget how old the article is.
Prenda may as well have went on and confessed to there misconduct and make it a quick and painless death of there careers. Pleading the fifth is only gonna prolong there inevitable fate.
Prenda brought this on themselves from day one. There's a reason why Greed is one of the 7 deadly sins, and they learned first hand today why this is the case.

Ahh government and its many entities, if there has been anything on this earth that says one thing and does another more than the rest, its you.
May you never change... but if you do i'd be nice if it was for the better.
Benefit of the doubt for just one second.

THIS S#!T NEEDS TO STOP!
potential irony incoming?

At this rate, we may as well just interpret every denial as an admission.
Am I the only one who read the article subtitle in Farnsworth's voice?
so kids cant be kids anymore.... yup. I'm pissed
Just goes to show that, even in an age fueled by an enlightened and informed youth, society is still ruled by the old and clueless.
Wouldn't be much of a loss for me as a viewer. All I watch nowadays is ESPN.
why do they insist a magic button exists? better yet, why do these congressional folk like to make issues out of things that aren't issues?
Fear...

Stay strong Boston. Stay strong everyone.

"...and certain groups that are anti-government," soooooo All Americans.... okay!
