After all, it's not as though I've never encountered a bouncer who's a rage-driven, 'roid-crazed whack job with delusions of adequacy, a two-figure IQ, and an ironclad belief that every woman in the world desperately wants access to his shrunken little dick. Exactly the kind of person I want having access to my sister's personal information. And if there's ever been a "security system" in a bar that couldn't be defeated in five minutes by a bartender with a Grade 8 education and a weakness for white powder, I've yet to see it. So I wouldn't be all that confident that the twitchy little guy in the corner with the laptop and the Klingon Vengeance Blade isn't paging through the personal data of everybody on the premises even as I try to hide my "Trekkies Are Assholes" t-shirt.
The day I surrender the contents of anything on a mag strip to the lack-wits, thieves and bottom feeders who infest your average bar is the day I move to Iran and stand on a street corner with a megaphone and invite Ali Khamenei to blow me.
Isn't that about the cost of a couple of packs of smokes and a bag of chips at one of those gas station stores? If he filled up the truck, too...well, that would just about account for it.
Decentralized generation seems likely to offer more jobs at the local level, both for construction of smaller, more numerous generating facilities and for on-going staffing and maintenance.
Do we really need government involvement? It seems to me that a few script kiddies with an attitude and a small botnet could return North Korea to its usual, Stone Age situation.
News that it was six tweens and a pet gerbil who brought North Korea to its metaphorical knees might make them think twice against pulling this kind of crap in the future.
Sorry, but you're mistaken. The "economy improvements" you're talking about resulted from a move by consumers to smaller cars, not a real increase in mileage those cars were getting. Do you think they can design and build a new car in a matter of months?
"It is so easy to smile like this when I think about pulling out Boss-san's intestines with rusty fish knife and feeding them to my dog in front of his dying eyes. His time to visit honourable ancestors comes faster than he thinks.
Van Loan is one of the neo-cons currently blighting the Canadian political stage. They've been wandering around like lost sheep ever since Obama was elected in the US, and this kind of wholesale destruction of personal privacy is just their version of pigging out on comfort food when things go wrong.
This technological advance screams out to be mounted on a mobile beer fridge. Far more convenient than waiting for a buddy to finish his pint, then using that time-worn phrase, "While you're up..."
Whatever idiot labeled this a "Troll" is probably incompetent to be given moderator status. Try studying the legal interpretation of "Fair Comment", jackass.
Thank you for taking the time to do the heavy lifting on this. One can't help but wonder whether the author of the report isn't one of the deeply-entrenched "loyal Bushies" who so worked so assiduously to create the eight-year nightmare of incompetence, greed and fanaticism that was the Bush/Cheney administration.
Ever since I accepted their invitation to use my (very unusual) name openly on Facebook, every single variation on that name has been spammed. This Heilinger jackass can take his "harsh words" about the performance of people who do real hardware work and shove them deep and hard. You can't bullshit a chip, you can merely mis-state its performance. When you lie about how you'll protect information people give you in trust, you're pretty much a douchebag. Mr. Heiliger, you are a douchebag.
By being an early adopter, Loyd also helps the technology to gain acceptance, which helps everybody who chooses solar later on. Acceptance = economies of scale = lower price. Assuming energy prices stay roughly where they are or rise, people who come after Loyd will reach their break even point much sooner, even assuming further innovation doesn't cut the price of solar even more.
If the trade publications weren't such complete and utter whores, they would have developed a legitimate, real-world test of battery life that would drive the industry version into the toilet, where it belongs.
In most of the places I have worked, Human Resources is stocked via lateral transfer from other areas. They're the deadwood that can't be easily be fired, but must be moved out for the good of the department. I'm entirely unsurprised that some HR drone came up with this idea. Unfortunately, they're still the first people job applicants usually encounter.
...to start following some journalists and editors around and publishing information about the sleazier aspects of their personal lives, this is it. There are any number of excuses you could come up with to establish why such information is vital to the public interest.
We might have proof of this in the foreseeable future. If we keep warming up the planet, it's quite possible that one or more major ocean currents will start behaving differently. If that happens and we see a change in the magnetic field, that would provide a strong hint that the two are connected in some way.
After a lot of years of predominately right wing rule in the United States, there's a shytte-load of judges who will rule against the individual in favour of big money every time. It's the John Robertsing of US jurisprudence, and it has little to do with fairness, justice or judgment.

Could it be...wait a sec...got it! This sounds to me sort of like Norton AntiMoa.

Dude should shut up and pay what he owes.

The last major gas mileage increase in North American cars came as a result of legislation.

A whole generation of new "It Came From The Sewer" urban legends is spawning in the dark even as we speak.

If you're stimulated by pictures of mature secondary sexual characteristics, you aren't likely to be all that interested in little girls.
Throw a bucket of cold water on it and the knob should slip right out.

You're out of date. Please check your facts before you run your mouth on something you clearly know nothing about.
Fucking idiot!

Is this what they mean by "Private Health Care"?
