The petrol in my garage is for my mower and my motorcycle. If someone uses it for another use by breaking into my garage and stealing it, that's their problem.
Yes, you can report it stolen, but don't expect an insurance payout.
Investigator: We traced your mobile phone signal to the location of the murder. Can you explain that? Suspect: My phone was stolen not long before the incident, actually. I was making a call in the town, which probably also comes up on the log you have, when a guy snapped it from my hands. I hadn't reported it yet. Say, you don't think this mugger would have also tried to harm someone else to get their belongings, do you? I mean, someone less pansy than me who might have put up a fight?
Consider; This man is willing to put his name to the disobedient act because he believes the law against it is wrong, and is willing to pay the price for that belief in order to get the reasoning behind his action heard, and presedent set. Right or wrong, I admire his audacity.
When did you last put your neck on the line for justice?
I see your point, but want to develop it a little.
I believe that automotive vehicles should have right of way on the roads. I believe that we should have cycle lanes and footpaths amalgamated into one wide (and segregated) pathway, wide enough for bi-directional movement of both. A second road for cyclists, narrower but parallel to the road network. They can use pedestrian crossings to cross the road. I believe that people who cross the road within a reasonable distance of a pedestrian crossing and are hit buy a motor vehicle obeying the law should be held entirely responsible, right down to repairs for damage to the vehicle and counseling costs for the driver out of insurance or estate (if deceased). Where no crossing is available, common sense dictates a safe place to cross (not on a bend, not near a high hedge blocking view, not between parked vehicles etc).
Very unpopular way of thinging, but ultimately sane.
You're missing an apostrophe!:) You get it right later, so no excuse but laziness!
Regarding your point, any contribution to heat in an enclosed space will be worthwhile. The cool air around the bulb would need to be heated anyway, so the incandecense of the bulb assists by not requiring the conventional heating system to have to heat the air in close proximity to the bulb.
You're right that heat does rise, but infra-red radiation travels in straight lines and will heat air for a good distance from the bulb. Not by much, though.
I do know, however, that my gaming PC takes roughly 30 minutes to heat a room 6' x 8' by around 4 degrees celcius. I'd equate the power draw under load to around 0.5kW, though I've not measured.
I'd gladly steal bread to repatriate there. They are in need ot fibre techs, tradesman (sparkies, plumbers, brickies etc) and stylists, last time I checked. I'm none of the above, so I guess I'd best grab myself some free Hovis!

... And the people laughed. I've seen the whole show.
All these two did was trivialise an important issue. I know why they did it; It was their most powerful medium to get the message across. The trouble is that everybody just moved on. They saw the show, they laughed, they thought about it for 30 seconds, then they went to the bar to get another beer.
Great men with a poignant message, but ultimately totally ineffectual.

How many dogbox would you need to play Crysis on your sock drawer?
The Game Gear was similarly troubled but Sega somehow managed to attract buyers though.

What a pile of useless garbage this scheme is.
They miss out the ampersand in the abbreviation.
That's funny, I always wonder why there's an American security agency dedicated to running modems with factory defaults.
... Will it run Crysis?
Really, I'm looking for an alternative to Windows for PC gaming, and WINE doesn't cut it. Not by a long way.
Beat you to it. I bought stock in the company which affixes pub furniture to the ground.

Why is the Wintard version payware? Pre-compiled and with an installer for â50? I'll stick with Tor thanks.

You're right, I wouldn't steal a car.
However, I might steal a policemans' helmet!

Just for those who are interested between Veyron and F1, here's some numbers.
The Veyron has an 8 litre quad-turbo engine giving 1001 bhp. A Formula 1 car is limited to a 2.4 litre normally aspirated engine, limited to 780 bhp.
The Veyron has a maximum speed of 220mph in normal use, the same as the limited speed of an F1 car.
The Veyron will do 0-62mph (100kmph) in 2.46 seconds. An F1 car is around 2.2 - 2.7 seconds.
A Bugatti Veyron costs $2.1m. A Formula 1 car costs $4.1m
However, a Suzuki Hayabusa has a 1.4l normally aspirated engine producing 197bhp, does 0-62mph in 2.6s, and costs $12,000! Pocket rocket indeed...
