I do love the recent Microsoft hardware wish I could afford that new surface desktop , that thing looks rad ! but I ' m not going back to thumbstick aiming . If Microsoft made an xbox controller with a gyroscope and dual trackpads , though . <| sep |> That principle was intended to relate to colonies , and I don ' t think you could reasonably consider Scotland a colony . I don ' t think it ' s meant to apply to any and every secession movement . There are lots of secession movements and the UN doesn ' t usually get involved . And anyway , the UN continues to complain about the UK territories that it considers are nonself governing , but the UK just ignores the matter . The UN doesn ' t actually have the means to enforce that kind of thing . Especially against a member of the security council .
