I does not have to be a CYOA either.

Rule #1 of any art form: if a rule is stated about the art form, someone will break that rule.

You brought it here. You did it because no one, including yourself, cares enough about Syria to actually comment and/or upvote these stories to the front page. This is the case because in Syria it's Muslims killing each other, so you don't feel emotional responses when they get killed. The only reason you feign to care about it is that it might derail the discussion from a topic you don't want to exhamine in too much detail.

Did I miss anything?

And this explains the destruction of another civilian plane, and obstructing the followup investigation, because?

The same. Yanukovich was legitimately deposed by the same parliament - with the same members - that elected him.

The situation is not balanced at all. Unofficial militia shooting down a plane because they don't have access to any ground control is simply more likely. They claimed hitting two military planes before. There is no real justification for the Ukrainian to shoot at anything that flies.

Proofs? I don't have any: unfortunately the main suspects are also the ones in control of the location of all the proofs. And they are preventing any third party from reaching said location. What does this tell us?

What does this change? If it had flown there before it might have been shot before.

You have clearly shown that you shouldn't take your 100/120 number seriously. None of those other cases admitted to killing civilians in large percentages either.

Roughly correct, but to be precise, the concept of redemption is more or less present in all Christian beliefs, including Southern Europe, Balkans, Eastern Europe and the Americas.

It is arguably a much stronger concept in Catholicism where redemption through deeds has a lesser role than in Protestant churches. Instead the main requirement to be forgiven is simply true repentance.

Most Asian and Eastern Asian religions are fundamentally linked with the idea of redemption especially through penance, most notably the ones that feature the reincarnation cycle. Just to point out that this is not at all an exclusively Christian thing either.

Wrong, unless you assume space is discretized, which might happen around Planck's length, but has never been proven theoretically nor experimentally.

Agreed. These assholes might have screwed up the case for the prosecutor and the end result might be that a rapist walks away free, all because they did not feel like doing their homework. They should face criminal charges.

That would limit it only to people that can use the internet. I, for one, applaud them for thinking of all their other customers!

What is a "de facto" decoder? Something that is not supposet to decode VP9 but can be tricked/misused to do so?

It's very likely that Nokia tested Android on its phones when it wanted Microsoft to close the deal, this is probably a false alarm born from those prototypes.

It makes no sense at all for MS to release an Android phone, and I doubt Nokia can release it and sell it in numbers before April (aquisition date), so I don't expect it to happen.

If it actually does come out, I see only two explanations. 1) Nokia is trying to scare MS from sealing the deal. 2) it's a thinly veiled attempt at saying "we tried Android but our customers would not want it". Most likely the former.

Whoever let this happen is going to be fired first thing in the new regime, I guess. If MS does not stomp it hard, it would look clueless. Unless MS wants to go Android, which I won't believe until I see it.

Right, it's about all those other new manufacturers that are trying to sell directly to consumers. How could people miss it? There's a horde of them!
