JUDICIAL ACTIVISM: n, Whatever a judge does that I don't like. I'm torn between amusement and disgust from all those "Judicial activism!" Republican state attorneys-general asking the Supreme Court to dabble in Activism in order to stop the new national healthcare law.
I don't care for having my laptop searched at a border crossing either, but let's not pretend that the Constitution is written out in thoroughly debugged English that can be interpreted only one way.
Setting up underground cities a la Asimov is a little pricey. These things would effectively be buried space stations whose only advantages are built-in gravity and no worries about radiation or meteor strikes. You'd have to provide air conditioning, fresh air, food, clean water, not to mention the cost of just getting the things built.
On the gripping hand, Foxit is lighter, meaning fewer lines of code, which means in theory that it's easier to maintain and there should be overall fewer bugs.
Not going to make it unbreakable, but overall tighter.
Sandboxie is the first one I can think of. Free as in beer, but it'll delay launch for a few seconds once so many days have passed unless you buy the registered version.
The chintzy paper phone book it provides doesn't count.
They should have included a standard electronic phone book plus speed dialing, but I have no complaints besides that. If it'd had a proper phonebook, I'd have no trouble recommending it to my in-laws.
Companies/did/ formerly do this, a lot. Mining companies out West, for example, would nearly always have to build a company town to house the workers. These company towns would have a company store, where the workers had to buy supplies from because there was nothing else within range.
It was not uncommon for the company stores (and the company dept who rented out housing) to overcharge as part of a strategy to keep the workers in wage slavery - they had no money left over, or were in debt, so they couldn't travel on to other things.
It's at the least in bad taste to be hogging the uni's network for non-essential massive downloading, too. The uni's got a legitimate interest in making sure that the students can use their net for actual education-related stuff.
Would you explain your sentence "because diesel engines do not mix air with fuel"? Diesel fuel requires the presence of atmospheric oxygen to burn, so I don't understand your sentence.
You can tell Chrome to never execute Javascript, then it will pop up a clickable icon at the right end of the address bar allowing you to run JS on a site that uses it.
It's not a complete equivalent, but it'll do in a pinch.
Confession time: a friend pirated Fallout 3 and gave me a copy to play. I put my moral qualms aside, enjoyed the hell out of the first five hours of the game, then bought it ($50) and each individual DLC ($10 each for the five).
It'd have been better if there'd been a demo, but many publishers don't release demos these days.
It's a fine balancing act. Err too far one way, and you get the bugfest that is Fallout New Vegas. Too far the other way, and you get Duke Nukem Forever.
There was a plant owned by Renewable Environmental Solutions near Carthage, MO that would take leftovers from Tyson's chicken plants and turn it into various oils, including fuel. Problem was that the plant *stank* and the wind sometimes blew the odor into town, leading to many complaints and attempts to fix it.
Eventually the state shut 'em down because they were unable to control the smell. Maybe this place in Louisiana is way out in the middle of nowhere, so they won't have to worry so much about the neighbors complaining.
I'd figured that flight lessons would end up being ~$5 to $6k for the forty hours, dependent on the price of avgas, esp. since I'd be renting the aircraft.
I've got a one-year-old daughter and a mortgage, so I really don't have a ton of extra money per month to play with, i.e. $20k plus maintenance plus avgas plus insurance plus space rental (even just a tiedown outside) is rather outside my budget.

What sort of misleading questions do they ask, out of curiosity?

Until Disney buys another senator, you mean.
Would it really?
Contrariwise, you could easily argue that your statement is "argument from incredulity".

You do have the option of not living on campus, though - you are free to rent an apartment or a house and provide your own Internet service.
That'd fall under "education-related", dipshit.
That's mainly on the political discussions and threads, I think, but yeah, you'll see that on Microsoft-bashing stories and the like.

Should've made her go through the porn scanner.

They were a competitor, an obstacle to be removed. That's why.

Debian should be able to install on it, or Yellow Dog Linux, which is targeted specifically at Mac hardware.

Well, if you want to play that game, I suppose I should mention John Adams and the Sedition Act.
Don't be tiresome.
Really? How does that invalidate what I said?
The Dems may have tried it, but the Republicans perfected it, so at best the original troll should have put both parties under the 1st Am column.
