There is no downside to lower meth prices. lower prices on anything is always a positive.
we as a group are saving billions a day after a very long recession. The meth prices are still not low enough to help those who need it most, the poor and lower middle class.
No, they didn't. There is less space per passenger in a TGV than in an ICE, but the TGV is faster ( http://upload.wikimedia.org/wi... ) and safer ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E... ). There are many connections (e.g. Stuttgart München) where ICEs average about 100km/h.
Except for the fact that Randal wrote "U.S. Scientists: Proud" for a european achievement. (http://xkcd1446.org/img/r_16-25-00_MZ7aAUNWN5.png). I realize NASA worked on some parts for this project, but it still looks a bit like chauvinism. He then corrected it (http://xkcd1446.org/img/r_16-55-00_bD01qtUkFk.png).
It looks like CCD artifacts to me (http://www.eso.org/~ohainaut/ccd/CCD_artifacts.html). It sometimes happen when movement or very bright light sources (e.g. the sun or metallic parts of solar panels) are involved. I still like my old Nikon D40 sensor thanks to its very fast flash-sync, but I get weird artifacts when shooting into the sun.
PS: I just checked wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philae_%28spacecraft%29), and CCD sensors are used on Philae.
I'm actually surprised, because I thought the only rule for intelligence agencies was : "Do what the fuck you want, but don't get caught." It's pretty obvious they target everybody, especially people holding potentially sensitive information (e.g. lawyers and journalists). I don't understand the need for such a policy, and I understand even less the need to disclose it.
A mathematician and an engineer are sitting at a table drinking when a very beautiful woman walks in and sits down at the bar.
The mathematician sighs. "I'd like to talk to her, but first I have to cover half the distance between where we are and where she is, then half of the distance that remains, then half of that distance, and so on. The series is infinite. There'll always be some finite distance between us."
The engineer gets up and starts walking. "Ah, well, I figure I can get close enough for all practical purposes."
Predicted sea level rise over the rest of this century (~85 years, not 50) is low enough that the routine level maintenance around New Orleans (a city that basically sits at or below sea level) will easily handle the problem.
*) If you mix this slow sea rise with more frequents hurricanes, it might not be worth it or even possible to handle the problems. New Orleans wouldn't look so good after 2 one-year-apart Katrinas, even if the sea only rose 3mm during that time. *) Please feel free to tell Bangladeshis they're stupid and should stop dying when the sea level rises.
I don't know if I'm being paranoid, but I'm pretty sure there are backdoors in every major open source project : gcc, the linux kernel, ssh, gpg and bash to name a few. They've been either actively introduced by NSA/FSB/... or found and jealously kept secrets. It's not like recent history has proven this theory wrong.:-/
You can trace back all those achievements to cheap available energy (mostly fossil fuels). Remove the fossil fuels and we might not be able "to handle whatever fantasies this guy can dream up".
Thanks for the explanation. At least on my systems (LMDE, Ubuntu server and Mac OS X), vim automagically opens archives, lets you browse the structure inside the gz file, lets you read the compressed files and even save the modified files. If it doesn't, you can add this to your vimrc : http://vimdoc.sourceforge.net/...

There are two hard things in computer science: race conditions, naming things, and off-by-one errors.
LxQt looks good, thanks for the tip!
Thanks a lot.
You just proved your argument is bullshit.

Exactly. I've been coding for 70% of my life and I still learn a lot every day.
Thank you.

Given the number of hits on pron sites for "Russian teen anal", I dare say Russia doesn't have anything against sodomy.
Yeah right.
Something like this http://www.gergely.risko.hu/de... would never get committed.

I like it because I wrote it, and I'm more intelligent than Torvalds and Ts'o.

Remove the fossil fuels and we might not be able "to handle whatever fantasies this guy can dream up".
Based on this, it appears you don't know the difference between power and energy.
We need a new "-1 incorrect XKCD quote" mod :)
Exactly. "Where's Waldo?" just got way easier.
Didn't you mean "101 times that age"?
With the added benefit that saying "8.460N,76.963E" is much faster than pronouncing this city name!

What's wrong about this command?
