It's relevant because many are jumping on the Twitter is right bandwagon so I'm wondering what information they have that I don't yet.

If it's not a legal matter, is it the DHS trying to find and discipline the employee(s) for the alleged deeds?

So was the user(s) of the account leaking information illegally or not? May not have any bearing on this, but it seems everyone is glossing over that question for some reason. It's either a dissenter of which there are many, or someone breaking the law and we should probably establish which.

Guns are a solution in the right hands, that's what the founders believed, and if these stats are correct it proves that they can be used responsibly if society is stable enough. I think we're approaching a time though when guns will be a net negative, but by then, the USA will cease to exist as we know it today.

That's awfully cynical, but maybe correct, though I have to believe that even the CEO of a giant defense contractor firm is proud of what they do.

Each example was given from the context of the worst-case expected outcome. I could make a similar list starting with "Democrats want citizens to be raped and murdered by illegal aliens", "Democrats want to keep high health costs to the benefit of the insurance companies", "Democrats want to keep increasing taxes while spending it on frivolous pursuits, often on programs to ensure their re-election (by entrapping people into economic slavery)".

"Threatened US default over debt ceiling" as I recall both parties play chicken with the economy to get their stuff passed, but the Democrats have the media to get people (perhaps like yourself) to buy that it's only Republicans who can take a hard line stance. Actually most of your examples are either complete strawmen or extremely biased and one-sided.

I've been looking to build a new HTPC. Most parts I want are cheaper through Amazon (with prime) compared to Newegg and in the end I could save about $50 getting all the cheaper parts through Amazon. I'll happily give Newegg an extra $50 when I do pull the plug. Now if Amazon would join the troll battle...

It amazes me how often Symantec is in the news about the same subject, yet they seem to be incapable of learning a lesson from it.

Yes, very silly place for a power button if you ask me. It will get pressed accidentally by virtually everyone who picks it up and moves it, or uses it, or bumps it into the side of something.

Please no, they already made Swordfish, we don't need another attempt.

Asymmetric encryption can't be reversed by the sender, assuming you use the recipients public key. When I was dealing with PCI and other frameworks, PGP encrypted data was given additional leeway for the sender in terms of how it could be stored or transmitted because in the context of the sender, the cipher text is gibberish.

How hard is it for games to ignore SLI entirely and simply use a second or third GPU to offload things like post-processing effects ?

Or even better, how about if you had 3 1080 Ti's and 3 monitors, could the application/game just easily assign one GPU per monitor without having to resort to using SLI (which has such a bad reputation)? This would make things so simple, want an extra monitor or two? Just add a GPU to power them. I cant imagine that the coding for something like this would be anywhere near as complicated as SLI/Crossfire.

They said the same thing about Obamacare.

What do you base that observation on? The article doesn't address whether washing + refrigeration is safer than leaving the membrane in-tact and not refrigerating. In fact, it hints at the exact opposite, saying Japan adopted the US method after a major salmonella outbreak. Who's right, or more importantly, does this even matter?

That does strike me as odd too, so do they at least let you renew them 6 months prior to the passport's expiration?
