Heck, the luggage handling for airlines has layers upon layers of recursive nesting of emulators and virtual machines. Whenever they update it tends to just amount to slapping a new wrapper around the current setup.
At the core, it's emulating a punch-card machine with an 80 character limit.
Firefox will have offloaded about 75% of its features into plugins, extensions, et cetera. The remaining 25% will be a gigantic giga^H^H^H^Hgibibar, which stores the entire html of every website you've ever visited, and searches through all of them whenever you type anything into it. Loading up google will take two or three minutes due to the extensive use of flash.
Man, this news article is completely irrelevant to my interests. Why doesn't slashdot cover something more interesting, like the Sburb beta release? It should have been sent out a couple of days ago, and there has to be somebody who's got it working by this point.
"Hey, here's evidence that Warner brothers was giving out their movie for free with no strings attached. Now that they've done that, there's no way they can claim that anyone pirated the movie, since the file transfer was authorized by Warner Brothers"
Not so much a conspiracy theory as a "disgruntled nuclear plant worker saw a movie about a disgruntled nuclear plant worker and decided it was a pretty cool idea".
Nothing could discredit the nuclear industry more than letting things slide.
TMI was a perfect example of starting off well and letting things slide later. In the early design and construction stages a lot of care was taken, the small risk of getting hit by a large aircraft from a nearby airport resulted in building containment vessels to withstand impact. However years later by the time it was up and running nobody cared much about the control systems and they wouldn't have been acceptable in any other form of power plant, chemical plant or oil refinery in the country. When the accident happened the carefully designed containment vessels which were unique at the time saved everyones bacon but nobody knew what happened because the instrumentation and control systems were rubbish. It was sheer dumb luck that it happened there and not at another of the plants where the consequences would have been worse. It gave us the best sort of nuclear accident you can get - one that wakes everyone up. Now far too many have gone back to sleep. There are of course plenty of petty idiots that like to pretend that only Russians get things wrong and there is no need to be careful.
There's a pretty good argument for TMI being sabotage.

How much force do you need to get a significant projectile up to 99% of C?
Hint: a lot.
You've got several centuries for your dodge.
It's actually pretty easy to defend against.
Step 1: Assume you're going to be targeted by one.
Step 2: Slightly alter the orbit of your home planet.
It's not like they can adjust their aim when they're going that fast.
Ah, yes, I believe I've seen the report on that.

There were internal environments (most irritatingly, cubicles) which were immune to geomodding.

It's a dupe.
Well, technically, it's at bare minimum a quadradupe, to get the proper time lag.
It's kind of odd, but it seems that someone hired Candlejack to hit the s-

Fred's, since he was using insider trading.
Even better:
"Hey, here's evidence that Warner brothers was giving out their movie for free with no strings attached. Now that they've done that, there's no way they can claim that anyone pirated the movie, since the file transfer was authorized by Warner Brothers"
Set up an account with an escrow agency.
People who want the movie to be produced pledge $N (to be payed when it's released).
Tests that involve giving people the ability to see novel colors, such as this one:

don't seem to have any negative effects.
It belongs in a museum.
And even then, you have to be sure of your Escrow service as well.

Where do I sign up?
More than that, in some species of birds capsaicin acts as a painkiller!
Yeah, that's a job for google streetview.

No, it's more like leaving your car with a valet. Then, when your nephew comes to pick up the vehicle, he refuses because your nephew isn't you.
