Rianne's sister in Singapore and I have been trying to check this for a long time; all I ever found were those flights going through Dubai, Frankfurt, or Munich. There was also an Air France option.

So it does everything possible to avoid US troop casualties. That in itself is not a bad thing; generals are supposed to keep casualties down when consistent with other requirements. (The awareness that the public doesn't like casualties might also discourage some | Oct 27 20:38 |
| schestowitz_bed2 | interventions to protect corporate interests.) The problem is that the US is overprotecting its troops, even at the cost of killing Afghan civilians who are not our enemies. " | Oct 27 20:38 |
| schestowitz_bed2 | "When US headquarters gets a report that there is a concentration of Al Qa'ida forces, rather than send ground troops to see what is really happening there, it launches a devastating air attack. If the group is really Al Qa'ida, the pilots face little danger in their planes moving at hundreds of miles an hour. If it is actually a wedding party, the pilots are moving too fast to note the difference. Only people on the ground can | Oct 27 20:38 |

| schestowitz_bed | Thanks for the information about DDG re Amazon. To be honest I can't help but be suspicious of the conclusion to continue using Google.

| schestowitz_bed | due to lack of resources or because they couldn't say anything about it doesn't hold water. Levinson couldn't explicitly say he had received a FISC or NSL but he still hit the media and talked about how he was shutting Lavabit down and suing the Government. I'm curious why you think Google has yet to reach some sort of critical user mass that they can do something to battle the Secret State through legal means. The whole write | Oct 30 01:31 |
| schestowitz_bed | up I find confusing as you start out with the obvious truth that no US Internet business can be trusted but then you somehow conclude that Google should be used if any of them. I just don't see why it "might as well" be Google. Microsoft ads and AWS aside, DDG's system is not designed to give you an unchangeable identity to which everything you do on the Internet is tied to ala Google or Facebook ID. | Oct 30 01:31 |
| schestowitz_bed | Knowing DDG is partially hosted on an AWS server in Virginia certainly gives me pause but it in no way makes me think I "may as well" go back to Google. That's a bizarre conclusion to an otherwise enlightening write up. | Oct 30 01:31 |
| schestowitz_bed | If we say no US business can be trusted (due to NSL or FISC) then we must be consistent, or otherwise clear and concise why a certain business should be an exception to the rule. It's unclear to me why many are faulting DDG but extoll the virtues of say Riseup or another US-based service. They're all subject to the same "we just have to trust them" standard, which is the same for VPNs as well I might add. | Oct 30 01:31 |

| schestowitz__ | "have been building free software to replace Windows and OSX" I'd say that's debatable. Some time back they started AOSP, but as soon as it got traction, they've been working very hard to replace as much of the open source code with closed source equivalents and leaving the FOSS parts to bit rot. The calendar, camera, email, chat and with Kit Kat even the home screen have gotten this treatment. These are just a few examples. (Away | Nov 02 20:51 |
| schestowitz__ | from Android there are others such as the shift from XMPP in Google chat). | Nov 02 20:51 |
| schestowitz__ | I'm glad that AOSP existed, and that it helped prevent absolute dominance by iOs / Windows Phone. Make no mistake though, it's a trojan horse, and at best has bought FOSS a little time to play catch up.

| schestowitz_bed | Thanks for the information about DDG re Amazon. To be honest I can't help but be suspicious of the conclusion to continue using Google. I understand they're the giant that would seemingly have enough resources to fight the fight, but they haven't and they will not. Lavabit founder Ladar Levinson has done more to fight national security letters than all the giant tech companies combined so the idea that DDG would just roll over | Oct 30 01:31 |

| schestowitz_bed | due to lack of resources or because they couldn't say anything about it doesn't hold water. Levinson couldn't explicitly say he had received a FISC or NSL but he still hit the media and talked about how he was shutting Lavabit down and suing the Government. I'm curious why you think Google has yet to reach some sort of critical user mass that they can do something to battle the Secret State through legal means. The whole write | Oct 30 01:31 |
| schestowitz_bed | up I find confusing as you start out with the obvious truth that no US Internet business can be trusted but then you somehow conclude that Google should be used if any of them. I just don't see why it "might as well" be Google. Microsoft ads and AWS aside, DDG's system is not designed to give you an unchangeable identity to which everything you do on the Internet is tied to ala Google or Facebook ID. | Oct 30 01:31 |
| schestowitz_bed | Knowing DDG is partially hosted on an AWS server in Virginia certainly gives me pause but it in no way makes me think I "may as well" go back to Google. That's a bizarre conclusion to an otherwise enlightening write up. | Oct 30 01:31 |
| schestowitz_bed | If we say no US business can be trusted (due to NSL or FISC) then we must be consistent, or otherwise clear and concise why a certain business should be an exception to the rule. It's unclear to me why many are faulting DDG but extoll the virtues of say Riseup or another US-based service. They're all subject to the same "we just have to trust them" standard, which is the same for VPNs as well I might add. | Oct 30 01:31 |

| schestowitz__ | "have been building free software to replace Windows and OSX" I'd say that's debatable. Some time back they started AOSP, but as soon as it got traction, they've been working very hard to replace as much of the open source code with closed source equivalents and leaving the FOSS parts to bit rot. The calendar, camera, email, chat and with Kit Kat even the home screen have gotten this treatment. These are just a few examples. (Away | Nov 02 20:50 |
| schestowitz__ | from Android there are others such as the shift from XMPP in Google chat). | Nov 02 20:50 |
| schestowitz__ | I'm glad that AOSP existed, and that it helped prevent absolute dominance by iOs / Windows Phone. Make no mistake though, it's a trojan horse, and at best has bought FOSS a little time to play catch up. In my opinion, our best chance at real freedom is something like Plasma Active or Firefox OS can developing fast enough to survive. Unfortunately much of Mozilla's money still depends on Google considering them a useful tool | Nov 02 20:50 |
| schestowitz__ | against Microsoft more than a threat in their own right. Here's hoping Mozilla has a backup plan for if Google does the same to them as it has many of the other open source projects they (used to) support. | Nov 02 20:50 |
| schestowitz__ | " | Nov 02 20:50 |
| schestowitz__ | From what I've heard Mozilla is very Web-based and thus it cannot guarantee much app freedom at all. Jolla, I think, has some blobs in phones. Based on the words on the interwebs... | Nov 02 20:50 |

| schestowitz__ | I ordered a Pi when they first came out, but when I powered it up, the ethernet/usb chip quickly got too hot to touch. Shut it down and it has sat in the clutter of my desk since. I figured it was going to be too power-hungry for battery operation, and wouldn't last long without heat sinks. | Nov 02 20:54 |
| schestowitz__ | Recently, browsing the RPi forum, I found that they made a circuit-layout blunder on the early boards and connected two 1.8v supply regulators to the same bus. If the set-points differ by more than a millivolt or two, these two regulators will fight over the voltage setting, and the symptom was just what I observed. | Nov 02 20:54 |
| schestowitz__ | At some point I may get it out and try to correct the little booboo. | Nov 02 20:54 |
