Seems more like it was nobbled than banned.

That's right. Be afraid; be very afraid; and don't go outside for any reason whatsoever especially if it's to vote.

I tried following some links and ended up ping-ponging between the two sites. I guess it's a reciprocal arrangement.

TechCrunch alert!

Life is hard.

Nope. This article is a week old.

How worried should I be that these people can't even get the name of the strain right?

The pixels are a dead giveaway.

Yeah, I just thought it was time for a little bullish naïveté.

They can buy their own damn lasers and try it themselves.

It's certainly interesting that mathematics created in the course of the string theory research program are finding application in the real world.

And indeed, it is fun to imagine those jackholes dying of koala meat poisoning.

Mathematicians are artists. They don't want to type a bunch of obscure computer codes and then fiddle with them until they get something that looks pretty. Mathematicians want to dash their thoughts down before they flee with the dawn mist, and then move on to the next shattering lightning bolt of genius.

I can't find a good source right now, but I'm pretty sure koala meat is poisonous.

Well, your proposals sound to me like a recipe for a nightmare, but you must feel differently. So what do you think would happen?

I find that impossible to believe. It would mean that these alleged nations made some kind of judgement between services that are useful for the state to provide and those that are essential.

This PDF looks to me like a scan that was OCR'd; anything the recognizer couldn't handle was left as a bitmap.

To a layperson, "protocol" is what you brush up on before you meet a distinguished personage.

Ah, so that's why people pronounce it "SuckMail".

Well, if this isn't a perfect vortex of inconsequentiality then I don't know what is.
