--"I've demonstrated the pictures from space to our colleagues, which clearly show the true size of the illegal trade of oil and petroleum products market. Car convoys stretching for dozens of kilometers, going beyond the horizon when seen from a height of four-five thousand meters," Putin told reporters after the G20 summit.

I'm so sick of this Guy.
I'm on Putin's side if he wants to do something to him.
*No erdogan supporters here right?
- I'm not sure there are even that many Erdogan supporters in Turkey, despite his massive polling successes...detritus
- There aren't. His whole election is a conspiracy. The votes ended at 5pm and by 5.45 they announced him as the winner.********
- That's how many million votes counted in 45 minutes?********
- Not that most other countries are any different, but at least they're a little less blatant about their corruption.********
- (30+ million)********
- Who does he have the support of? seems to be right wing islamists? does that go counter to the military and the secular ideologies that the turkish state was.._niko
- ...founded on? Looking at the voter map, he seems to be the GW Bush of Turkey enjoying the votes of country folk and rednecks and religious wingnuts_niko
- where the CHP is more urban, progressive and liberal?_niko
- The recent Canadian national election was being called in even less time, even though we're spread over many time zones, and we don't have digital/online votingnb
- You can predict the winner after only a small number of votes are counted by applying math to the early results. We still count all the votes, just in case.nb
- His party (AKP) sits at the center, between the "urban/western" CHP and the nationalist/fundamen... MHP. Yes he pulled a Reagan, makingmrrgl
- appeals to country folk while actually representing the new rich (and making himself and family obscenely rich in the process)mrrgl
- Voting is highly observed and almost impossible to fix. Paper ballots observed and counted by hand by representatives from every partymrrgl

Beware of ads that use inaudible sound to link your phone, TV, tablet, and PC
The ultrasonic pitches are embedded into TV commercials or are played when a user encounters an ad displayed in a computer browser. While the sound can't be heard by the human ear, nearby tablets and smartphones can detect it. When they do, browser cookies can now pair a single user to multiple devices and keep track of what TV commercials the person sees, how long the person watches the ads, and whether the person acts on the ads by doing a Web search or buying a product.
- Interesting, but I was under the impression that the speakers in my phone/TV/devices can not reproduce ultrasonic sounds.nb
- Also, why use sound when you can simply track people via browsers, accounts, IPs, etc? It seems redundant to use audio to link devices.nb
- Because it might be your computer emitting the sound and your phone or whatever being tracked through it.i_monk
