Instead of taping it to a stray cat, I suggest we return them to the government* since I am sure that they will be marked as "Government Property."

How quickly we forget that little skirmish that started in 1775 and lasted until 1783 or the skirmish in Vietnam or the ones taking place in the middle east, organization has its limits.
Since charging you money would be a breach of contract. I would let them charge you money and then call Verizon et al. and tell them that they are free to provided cable service to your town. I see it as a win win for everyone.
Why the hell can cars run this fast anyways. Do we really need a car that will run over 90mph for more than a few seconds during a pass. Are we all so brainwashed by action movies we pretend we might need to run away from a maniac we probably couldn't outrun anyways.
And if we outlaw guns, people will stop being killed by guns...
Because some middle manager decided that the agreement was somehow proprietary and release of such an agreement by a third party would hurt Apple's business.
building better rat trips leads to smarter rats/ building something that is idiot proof leads to better idiots.... No matter what we do in an attempt to keep the idiots or rats from terrorizing us, they will always find a work around. In the mean time life for 99.998% gets exponentially more complicated for the rest of us.
well you do not have to use the service they offer. The great thing about America baring taxes and death, is that you have a choice. However, if you wish to use their service you must agree to a contract, usually in the form of a TOS. Once you agree to it then well yeah.... the terms are the terms. I am sure that if you want to use the maximum bandwidth offered 100% of the time there is a plan that you can purchase. However, I doubt that price increase will just be 43% compared to the 100% bandwidth 70% of the time plan.
I am a scientist, because it is what I am. The pay or the lack thereof provides me a means of being who I am instead of having to force myself to be something else. Really, as long as I have a roof over my head and food on my table then the rest is just gravy as long as I can do science. The assumption/ theory that money equals happiness has already been disproved. Now if you want me to be something that I am not, then you will have to pull out your checkbook so that I can compensate my lack of happiness with something that will bring momentary gratification.
Never hearing the term before, it very succinctly communicates the situation. I must say the mental image is also quite pleasant. Well done!

no really get an amateur radio license and set up a manned relay station that is connected to the net. No it will not be blazing fast but coverage will be great.
And what is a car's reasonable life time? Imagine if there was a sedan built in 1982 that still gets 25-28mpg and still passes all the smog tests. Are you saying that it is more environmentally responsible to crush that car and buy a new sedan that gets 28-30 mpg?
You can monitor people, you can teach them to drive, you can raise the driving age to 40 however, none of that will stop the newest drivers from being the most accident prone. So yes there probably is another motivation for these devices. Humans tend to learn things from experience. When was the last time a new programmer generated completely bug free code on the first try, or the las time that a new engineer did not make a mistake in the calculations? Mistakes happen and mistakes most frequently happen with in hte group that is the least experienced.
and they calibrated the detector how? No seriously, did they have a sample set of gravitational waves to calibrate the detector? There are only two outcomes of an experiment, either the results support your hypotheses or they do not. The results of this experiment failed to support the hypothesis. The conclusion would be that the detector failed to detect gravitational waves. To answer "Why?" would be speculation. I hate reading the page long conclusions of journal articles that speculate as to why the results are what they are. Save the speculation for conferences and the lab, publish the results, summarize the results in the conclusions. If you want to include speculation in the paper include it in the discussion.
A lot of people confuse a hypothesis for a theory. All it takes for a hypothesis to become a theory is for there to be "some evidence" to support the hypothesis, even if the evidence is just pure math.
if the spelling of the words was logical, then good scientist could spell. All scientist work with in a certain theoretical frame work depending on what they are currently doing. For spelling I usually default to the sound-it-out method/ make-it-look-right method and allow the spell checker to make suggested revisions. If that fails I use a search engine to help me arrive at the correct spelling. Really it is nothing more than what all scientist do,
1) develop a question "How do I spell excetra?"
2) form a hypothesis "I do not think excetra is the correct spelling."
3) test the hypothesis "The spell checker indicates problem with the spelling of excetra."
4) Results "excetra is spelled incorrectly"
5) Submit for peer review
6) peers suggest excetra should be spelled excreta
7) Literature says the excreta is defined as "Waste Matter..."
8) Turns out he peers are wrong the word i was looking for is "etcetera"
9).....
10) profit
And the volt has an ICE. I imagine that the auto parts guys are not that worried about profits. New technology, before the bugs are worked out, always generates a surge in the parts market. However when people start disposing of the large high energy density battery the same way they dispose of their lead acid battery, there will be an environmental impact. When was the last time you saw 1Kg of Li metal sitting around in nature?
It will be 10 years before they have realized that they made the observation. The amount of data that will be generated will be huge and then someone has to analyze it to understand what the detectors detected.
I would guess that piracy is lost in the noise of monthly sales. The entertainment industry uses piracy as a scape goat in order to convince the bond holders that neither the quality of the product nor the current price of the product is driving sales down substantially. "If you only invest more money, we will be able to develop this new almost unbreakable scheme that will stop piracy. Then our sales will rebound."
Two facts of life:
1) Piracy is the oldest profession. There will always be dishonest men.
2) Anyone can predict the future. They very rarely are correct.

Miele, but don't complain about the price.

No, doing it the way he suggested you would want to use a CVS (drugstore in the USA).

Here is the best that I have found. As the story goes nothing is 100% secure as long as it exists. https://www.ironkey.com/
Now all someone has to do is figure out how make all the water on earth have a concentration 1ppb bubbles.
