  1. Pretty much everyone in Venezuela is convinced this was staged by the government to give Maduro justification for an even harsher crackdown on the opposition.
  2. I'm not sure anyone will be able to muster the energy over the Antman Saga to debate this with you
  3. Venezuelan officials say explosive drones went off as President Nicolás Maduro was giving a live televised speech in Caracas, but he is unharmed.
  4. Awww yeah! Some sweet-ass Chinese government spyware comin' your way to an Android device near you courtesy of Tencent!
  5. Swedish police investigated for shooting man with Down syndrome who was reportedly carrying a toy gun I'd give anything to compare/contrast how the Swedish authorities handle the post-shooting investigation compared to how American authorities typically handle ours.
  6. The amount collected in the US for Social Security is 12.4% (6.2% from the employee, 6.2% from the employer). The amount collected in the US for Medicare is 2.9% (1.45% from the employee, 1.45% from the employer). Note - there is no income ceiling on Medicare taxable wages.
  7. That's not an entirely ridiculous notion to plant a seed of doubt in the mind of the jury at all.
  8. Because I don't trust the Federal government with not co-mingling the revenue intended for the trust funds with that intended for general appropriations. If there was a way to ensure that the compartmentalization could be maintained, then I'd be in favor of that.
  9. Tabletop game Star Wars: Armada has a huge release coming early next year, and not huge like significant to the game, huge as in literally very large. Armada is going to get a Super Star Destroyer 'miniature.' If you don't recall, this is Darth Vader's gigantic flagship from Return of the Jedi. It is over two feet long (More than 24 inches, 70 centimeters, etc), and it should be, because it’s going to retail for $199. It will be the largest single figure that Fantasy Flight Games has ever made. FFG Blog about the SSD expansion
  10. You know - the regime that has been publicly accused by the United States of murdering its own citizens.
