That and AT&T has probably seen the writing on the wall. They fought to end net neutrality at the federal level and now they are looking at a lot of state and local laws getting passed. So instead of one set of rules they might end up with hundreds of rules.
I figure it was because they didn't want to be classified as a "Common Carrier", which opens them up to other regulations besides net neutrality. Particularly with respect to how they can invest their money. This was the mechanism the FCC used to impose net neutrality.
Ultrasound these days is relatively cheap and portable. Because of those reasons, it's probably used now more than ever. I didn't appreciate the insult either.
I would speculate the torpedo is a scaled up version of the VA-111 Shkval. It's an amazing piece of hardware on it's own.
Length: 8.2 m (26 ft 11 in)
Diameter: 533 mm (21 in)
Weight: 2,700 kg (6,000 lb)
Warhead weight: 210 kg (460 lb)
Speed
Launch speed: 50 knots (93 km/h; 58 mph)
Maximum speed: 200 knots (370 km/h; 230 mph) or greater
Range: Around 11–15 km (6.8–9.3 mi) (new version). Older versions only 7 km (4.3 mi)
Everyone stopped making giant nukes because they're pointless. It's better in pretty much every way to scatter lots of little ones than detonate one big one. Which is what makes this story so unlikely to be true.
Yup. Realize that explosions are spherical and targets largely exist on a plane. Therefore, a lot of energy is wasted on the volume above and below the plane. This is one reason for multiple reentry vehicles, and cluster bombs.
Now, a "shaped" nuclear weapon that could focus more energy on the target plane would be a game changer.
In fact, Google Play Services itself is a spying app. (Go on and check what permissions it requires by default, which you usually can't revoke in non-rooted Android. And I'm pretty sure they use it as well, since when I used Google Maps, Google started asking me to review restaurants I'd been to even though I had revoked Google Maps ability to remain active in the background and hadn't used it for over a month due to trying out Maps.me as a replacement.)
Google Play Services has consumed a bunch of other apps that used to do various tasks. For example, it is responsible for managing all requests to the GPS card. It's like the Android equivalent of systemd.
I ran F-droid a few years ago. Sure, the apps are FOSS, and in theory more secure. However, you have to allow non Play Store apps system-wide (unless something changed). This is a vulnerability I am not willing to accept. Especially since most of the apps on F-droid are in the Play Store too.
Mitt Romney is one of the smartest presidential candidates this nation has ever seen, as well as a fundamentally decent human being.
I always got the used car salesman vibe from Mitt Romney. He had the shiny suit, and too much product in his hair. Seemed like he had a hidden agenda that he thought he could hide with more mousse.
So, I agree. There was a problem with his charisma.
No, it's saying if you are building a runway, it would be wise to try to be angled at the center of an interval, rather than right at the edge of an interval. If it is going to round to 190, then try to exactly be 190, and then it's very tolerant to fluctuations and still be accurate enough.
The primary concern for planning a runway direction is the prevailing wind. It's very difficult for a pilot to land a plane in a crosswind. (There are many YouTube videos on this subject.) Therefore, runways are planned so the plane is flying into the wind as often as possible. If the wind typically has a heading of 185, then that's where the runway goes. Making the heading 190 will only make it more difficult to land the plane.
I'd like to see more effort into prevention of recidivism than prediction of it. What is the most cost effective way to encourage people to avoid a life of crime? I bet locking them up isn't it.
I thought that they were superseded by satellite imaging
I've heard a rumor that the North Koreans have been able to avoid detection of sensitive equipment by moving it while spy satellites are not overhead. They are apparently tracking spy satellites, and are good at it.
There are ceramic filters that can be baked to burn the soot collected. If I were to build this, it's what I would use. No point cleaning up pollution by creating even more pollution.
I will hypothesize (correction: boneheaded idea) that people currently view pizza delivery as a task that requires human interaction. If pizza delivery robots become ubiquitous, people will stop saying "thank you."
I am personally betting against bitcoin having long term crypto currency market dominance for this exact reason. The liquidity issue will only make runs far worse and there are more efficient ways of handling transactions if you could start over.
Many elderly people have reached the stage where they know they should not be driving any more, but have to...or move from the house they've lived in for years. So this could be great for them...
My parents can still drive ok. They just find it more and more stressful as they age. They just bought a new Toyota with all of the available accident avoidance systems, and they love it.
They do in The Villages. It is located in Silicon Valley. A townhouse there can cost nearly $1M, and a modest house nearly $2M. It is not for poor people.
From my understanding of real estate in Silicon Valley, these property values are typical.
It is not really an engineering problem. It's more about economics and aesthetics, as well as how much of a penalty there is compared to regular panels of the same size.

The flamethrower is a direct reference to a scene in Spaceballs about merchandising.
Look on the bright side. Teen pregnancy and drug use is at an all time low!
Apparently it's difficult to get pregnant if you never leave the house.

Ultrasound machines are the size of briefcases these days. MRI machines have a long way to go before they become that small.
Ultrasound these days is relatively cheap and portable. Because of those reasons, it's probably used now more than ever. I didn't appreciate the insult either.
Ultrasound was gone? What happened to it? Surely it wasn't replaced by massive and expensive MRI machines. What technology took it's place?

That's one advantage of a spy-plane though. It's movement isn't as predictable as a satellite.
Those BMWs are fucking ugly looking pieces of shit for stupid faggets. Give them Teslas.
Done!

How long would the filters last?
There are ceramic filters that can be baked to burn the soot collected. If I were to build this, it's what I would use. No point cleaning up pollution by creating even more pollution.
One of the most harmful pollutants is NOx. It's very hard to filter out, as it's a gas. How does this system deal with that?
Tesla isn't even this aggressive in their timeline.

I agree with that statement. However, I do think there is a market for crypto currency. The question is, which one? I posed a poll, but it was apparently unpopular.

If only someone at Tesla knew something about economics.
Because some fraction of worthless has value? Sell at a loss and make it up in volume?
Depends on the fee structure, but most transactions have a minimum fee.
