I need a full 13"
NN88··on Hackers steal card data from Neiman Marcus
...this is getting ridiculous.
NN88··on Does Snapchat's CEO Need to Go?
its funny how when things go wrong in private companies, how quickly the general public thinks they can weigh in on how someone needs to stay with that entity.

Imagine building something and losing your influence over it to the rest of the world.

NN88··on Edward Snowden, after months of NSA revelations, says his mission’s accomplished
I just can't help but think most people already knew this before he revealed it...but then I remember...so many people are just under a rock
NN88··on Inside the Saudi 9/11 Coverup
I completely agree.

BUT on the same token, would you have been ok with an in-absentia trial, even if just a sham/show-trial?

NN88··on Inside the Saudi 9/11 Coverup
1. wasn't his son traveling with another targeted individual? 2. i'm iffy on the assassination thing because its not like the US wasn't looking for that guy dead or alive. You act like slapping hand-cuffs on him was plausible. 3. Yemen tried him.
NN88··on Inside the Saudi 9/11 Coverup
Well there WAS a Saudi guy being questioned.

Thats SoP for the Feds/police after a major event.

Round up the usual suspects and grill them down.

NN88··on Inside the Saudi 9/11 Coverup
PERSONALLY...I wish people would stop defending Awlaki. The guy was an avowed asshole and it just gets reaffirmed with each passing day.

I wish there was another, less controversial candidate to debate USA's killing of its citizens.

I don't condone the US's actions, but I sure as hell understand the reasoning for doing it.

ALSO, don't forget that he renounced his citizenship and Yemen tried him in-absentia.

NN88··on Inside the Saudi 9/11 Coverup
I'm kinda amazed that after 12 years, info is not only leaking out, but is still painting a picture of what damn near everyone thought in the first place...
NN88··on Inside the Saudi 9/11 Coverup
Some people don't like any strain of doubt when they can't accept they might be wrong.

Its pretty much confirmed IMO that the Saudi's probably were behind the whole thing.

Which is odd because they have a serious history of state-backed terrorism and islamic expansion throughout the world.

NN88··on Inside the Saudi 9/11 Coverup
Thats kinda how things work though. Its pretty amazing that we're a country so fervently attached to the rule of law in some instances. It's kinda amazing actually.

Other nations wouldn't have it so lucky.

I'm sure stuff like this is why Cynthia McKinney just said to hell with it all...

NN88··on Inside the Saudi 9/11 Coverup
What was uncredible about the information here?

The links are just blatantly obvious at this point.

We've got names. meeting dates. money transfers. travel itineraries. communication logs.

It ALL spell's "HOUSE OF SAUD"

NN88··on Inside the Saudi 9/11 Coverup
Doubt it in this case.

The Saudi's have a history with this sort of behavior.

Their islamically led ideas of expansion have been around since the 18th century and oil is their vehicle of perpetuating that meme.

NN88··on Why spies never discover anything useful
The best spies are the ones you don't hear about so...
NN88··on Wikileaks publishes 500k new Stratfor emails
Why the hell don't they just dump everything?

they're politicizing the very leaking they're doing.

NN88··on Long Before Trees Overtook the Land, Earth Was Covered by Giant Mushrooms
I guess now might be a good time to mention John Marco Allegro's theories on the amanita muscaria and its role influencing major religions: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_M._Allegro

Holy Hyperbole!

Doesn't mean we can't start looking for alternatives...
NN88··on 419-million-year-old fish fossil resolves 'missing link' in evolution
Well you really can't blame them. They literally don't know what they're talking about.

If I have 5 items, there are 4 spaces between them.

If I add a 6th item, then there are...5 spaces between them.

They'll always move the goal posts because they don't understand the mechanism you're trying to explain.

NN88··on How to Get a Job With a Philosophy Degree
While this article did a great job extolling Andy Chan it did nothing to answer the question, How to Get a Job With a Philosophy Degree.
NN88··on [dead]
>How can you feel it when you think it makes perfect sense to put your socks on the floor after you’re done with them, and she has this crazy idea that they need to go in the laundry basket?

Yeah thats not going to get you very far.

NN88··on Google Ventures Puts $258M Into Uber, Its Largest Deal Ever
Basically Uber-driverless cars?
NN88··on Bradley Manning's Post-Sentencing Statement
> Based on what he saw, after long introspection, he applied for conscientious objector status. He felt he was sent around the world not to protect his country's freedom or safety, but government and corporate interests.

Isn't that the basis of ALL war?

NN88··on The Real Reason Why British Authorities Detained David Miranda
Greenwald flubbing certain little details about Miranda's involvement rubs me the wrong way.

1. His spouse was a courier.

2. Greenwald and Poitras MADE IT KNOWN he was a courier and often said that they were using Miranda as a way to prevent themselves from being caught with information on their bodies.

3. The Guardian was paying for his flights...and who knows what else. (Can't fully trust them since it took them damn near 2 months to reveal the GCHQ came to pay them a visit)

4. If you travel with stuff stolen from the government...shit gets real...really fast.

Why lie or omit information Glenn? The situation is bad enough. Stop trying to paint this as some sort of "journalistic transgression" when in fact Miranda (and Glennd and Poitras) should have known to not fly through one of the busiest airports in Europe AND one of the nations actively trying to stifle that information.

Considering the SHEER LEVEL OF PROTECTION Poitras admits to using... (http://www.nytimes.com/2013/08/18/magazine/laura-poitras-sno...) ...there is NO reason why they allow this to sloppily happen.

Either Miranda was meant to get caught...or they're just being lazy.
