o look at this "The practical answer is, that if you get a sympathetic jury, and may not get convicted; especially if you catch the cops lying and ditching evidence (standard operating procedure; really.)

If you (by some miracle, even though youre entitled to it) obtain the Internal Affairs Investigation of the same in |

mircea_popescu |
cident that youre being prosecuted for (See, Rezek v. Superior Court, 206 Cal.App.4th 633 (2012); youre supposed to get it, but in the real world, you almost always never do), and the story that the cops told the Professional Standards / Internal Affairs Division Investigators dont jive with the present one. They just make something up; all with the guidance of the DAs office. Really. They fabricate enough |

do you see the difference between some party declaring war (whether this is entirely in their own mind and an exercise in pure ridicule) and someone declaring jihad ? |

mircea_popescu |
the former perceives he has some sort of army. |
| 21:28 |
mircea_popescu |
the latter perceives he does not need one. |

there's a palpable 'if not you then who, if not now then when' flavour to the latter. |

the worst effect of a solar flare is the massive plasma cloud that the sun farts when it happens. if it hits the earth just right, it sets up massive moving magnetic fields which generate large currents in long conductors |

ben_vulpes but yes, as far as numerically approached, a major flare can do 500km. |

The20YearIRCloud |
with all of the flares below X class ones, it just reduces signal range/strength with the benefit being an easier job skipping radio signals |
