Because they're in the military. People with options don't join the military no matter what military recruiters tell you.
Why would I join the military for terrible pay, and get shot at, when I could do literally any other job, for more money, I don't get deployed to ill equipped war zones, I get to go home at the end of every day, and don't get shot?
You have to be a certain type of person to join the military, and that sort of person is not one prone to introspection.
Yes in a few countries that's a good idea, although in the US with all its legalised bribery and regulatory capture I don't know if there's much point.
So are the bad guys also supposed to attend this training as well so everyone's on the same page? Like, what do they do with the other person has a gun, or is actually fighting to win rather than to be entertaining.
Might as well get Hugh Laurie to teach medical students.
Yeah where I work some of the managers get really upset if you criticise them even if their ideas are stupid. If you go on Glassdoor look the company up everyone complains about it so it's pretty bad.
When they have these meetings to "discuss" an idea really what they want to do is just have an audience to announce it to. I always claim to be busy so I never attend these meetings anymore.
Oh no there would absolutely be responses, but not to the level of military retaliation as he was suggesting.
China would definitely use it as an excuse to build up their nuclear stockpile and the nuclear test ban treaty would be in tatters.
It would also result in a lot of civil unrest in the US which could spiral into a civil war. To be honest though I can't really see the US surviving until the end of the century regardless, there's just too much hate and division there and neither the republicans nor the democrats have ever attempted to fix major societal issues.
My objection is more to the suggestion that we do it to our own kitchen cabinets. It'll be a mess and it won't work and then will have messed up cabinets.
Also in terms of equipment I own a screwdriver and maybe a hammer, so it would also involve going out and buying expensive wood sanding equipment and table saws, that I really don't have a use for. I'm not a DIY sort of person.
These people are so rich they wouldn't even notice the tax hike. They just don't like the idea of giving any of their money away it's not actually a problem for them though.
This is utterly stupid and I agree it needs to be highlighted however it's worth pointing out that a public consultation doesn't mean squat.
They're asking the general public if they think that VPNs should be regulated. They are not asking experts for feasibility studies. So even if we take it as red that this is 100% definitely going to happen, they are at stage -1 of the process right now, and we all know the speed which politics moves (continental drift in slow motion).
I would actually be perfectly prepared to put money on this not actually happening. Labour do not need more reasons for people to hate them.
If you ever seen an emu up close you can see why. I'm not sure to what extent birds are dinosaurs, and to what extent they're actually a different species, but if any bird is a dinosaur it's the emu. Albeit an incredibly stupid and aggressive dinosaur.
I love trying to get my partner to watch technology connection videos. I don't think she really believes me when I go, oh yes there is actually a video about traffic lights heating systems or tell her about the multi-year long Christmas decoration lights saga.
The website doesn't allow for reverse translation so, er... about three fiddly?
