Re: [FRIAM] wtf I thought nuclear weapons was banned since...forever
Pandora's cats are out of the bag and nothing will put them back. I'm not religious but the whole "original sin" thing is a good allegory for how hard (impossible) it is to go backwards... even when that would be the very best thing to do (were it possible). There is no "undo" button... entropy does increase... time does march forward, and "the only way out is through". I can't even begin to guess what it would look like for humanity to collectively evolve (I suppose societally, not genetically/individually) to the point that we really can put down obviously dead-end ideations like "Mutual Assured Destruction" across the board. Post Apocalyptic fiction suggests that the only remedy is an Atlantean-class collapse and "great forgetting" of the shite we know about being horribly cruel and destructive to one another (and by extension or vice-versa, the planet/universe?). I *do* think that there is an "enlightened self-interest* path that is armatured around an expanding sense of "self" as well as "interest" AND "enlightenment", but the specifics are an "exercise for the student (as a collective).

Re: [FRIAM] WTF: CIA edition | The Bloomington Alternative
Some of my personal favorites: As of when I left the states three years ago, Toyota still proudly wrote on some of their pickups the acronym for Toyota Racing Development (TRD, just pronounce it :-) Maybe urban legend, but General Motors had to quickly change the name of one of their early economy car after introducing it to the Latin American market, not considering that Nova literally means it doesn't go (no va); Bumper stickers aren't very popular here in Ecuador, but one of the few that I've seen is for a famous Chinese restaurant in Quito, which reads (with the heart symbol) I love Ho's. ;; Gary On Dec 26, 2010, at 12:27 AM, Owen Densmore wrote: Hard to believe.

It's what comes from making the assumption that your adversaries are stupider that you are. But this is just stupid dumb. There did appear to be a vulnerability, the defense official said. There's been no harm done to troops or missions compromised as a result of it, but there's an issue that we can take care of and we're doing so. Whew, that's good. We even get some stupid CYA. Fixing the security gap would have caused delays, according to current and former military officials. It would have added to the Predator's price. Some officials worried that adding encryption would make it harder to quickly share time-sensitive data within the U.S. military, and with allies. OMG, what a clown show. I guess our allies are even more stupid than we are. There's a balance between pragmatics and sophistication, said Mike Wynne, Air Force Secretary from 2005 to 2008. Yes, and the average Best Buy consumer is already on the smarter side of that trade-off curve. I guess when you download encryption software from the internet it's free, but when General Atomics develops it for you its like what, 12 billion dollars? Of course, they probably sold non-compatible as a security feature.. On Dec 17, 2009, at 10:44 AM, Douglas Roberts wrote: Hadn't you heard?
