This is a furnace for incinerating items contaminated by exposure to nuclear fuels during regular use (clothing, tools etc). By themselves they are more than likely harmless, but if left to build up in landfill sites I'm sure they'd cause problems.
Furthermore, If a Bono isn't on stage where people can see him and isn't clicking his fingers, are children in third world countries still dying much more often than industrial workers on French nuclear waste processing sites? Yes. Yes they are.

You need to learn not to fall for it, not have people try to hide the whole world full of scammers from you. The same ability to sort out bullshit applies to prescription drugs, diets, vitamin supplements,
mission statements, campaign promises, sermons...
Vendor product datasheets, quantity of sexual partners, tax returns...
Kids these days! Not even the slightest bit of originality, sheesh! When we stole copyrighted works, we stole them creatively!
-1 point for using "stole" when relating to copyright infringement. You'll note that if I recreate his work on a different external drive, his work is still available for others to marvel at.
Following on from your first point, a police officer is absolutely allowed to say "I'm not a cop" to get you to admit to a crime. He can also say things like "between you and me" or "off the record" and it means just slightly more than nothing, in that it means they think you're dumb enough to fall for it. A couple of things they can't do is entice you to commit a crime (entrapment) or break the law to obtain evidence (although a member of the public can). Nothing is off the record. Everything they say is to trip you up. In the US, do not ever talk to the police.
In the UK it's different. "Anything you say can be used as evidence" is different to "Anything you say can be used against you" and there is a special stipulation for not revealing information under questioning which you rely on in court. Over here, I'd say be polite and helpful, but lie through your teeth if you have to until you're cautioned or under arrest, in which case get a lawyer before you say anything else.
You should probably point out that there is not a lot of difference to the observer between OpenGL and DX9 rendering in WoW. At least, there wasn't when I was dual booting and running WoW between Windows XP and Lucid Lynx.
Same hardware, different renderer, faster on Linux, didn't look much different. Shame I play more than just WoW, really.
So, even dropping that check off in person won't necessarily help. Mistakes can (and do) happen.
True. However, you can reduce the probability of an issue arising by reducing the complexity of the system. By trusting USPS with your cheque, you give USPS the chance to lose it. If you don't send it by mail, they can't lose it.
I refuse to pay retail price for a rented game the same way that I would refuse to pay retail price for an audio CD rented from the library.
OnLive is a streaming service, and you rent access to their service ( and therefore their game catalogue) to play the games you buy. If the service fails, you lose access to your games. This is the problem I have with Steam, and why I only buy games on their ridiculous 75% off sales. For the rest I buy from Play / Brick and Mortar stores, so even if the point of sale goes bust, I still have the game to play.
The population of the internet seem to be under the mistaken impression that reductio ad Hitleram is actually the end of the argument. It is not. Hitler did many things apart from gas Jews and invade Poland, and some of those things are similar to things done in current Western democracies. Censoring of speech which is against the government's mandate, inhibition of the right to peacefully congregate / protest, control of private enterprise for the purposes of preventing freedom of information... No, they're not rounding up gypsies and making them shovel dirt. But then nobody is saying that they are.
Career day was always tough for me, because my daughter was always in the same class as the guy who did lasers (no frickin' sharks).
Bring out a laser pointer, and a light show laser. Point the pointer at the board, demonstrate how boring it is; You can wiggle it, but it really just sits there. Dim the lights, put on some music, and set the light show laser to "auto" and demonstrate. Even the most simple of these units can be programmed to show certain patterns which could be replicated with LOGO and shown on a projector, onto the same board the light show laser is emitting.
Your pwnage will be total and awesome.
After writing this, I noticed you're writing in the past tense. I'm expecting you to say your daughter is now 24 and has a degree in Forensic Pathology or something, and this comes almost 2 decades too late.
I wouldn't be surprised if the top of the case fit flush with the hard drive cases and was used as a heatsink. Alu top case, finned, with a bank of fans in push/pull configuration, and a hot/cold arrangement of ducting along the racks.
House, Lie To Me, Futurama, Fringe, Dexter, The Mentalist... More I can't remember, all series I watched first online (House and The Mentalist just one episode) before buying one, two, three boxed sets at a time. I own all of the released series above except Lost, which is just a fucking travesty past series 1. Just wouldn't have happened if I hadn't seen them online first.
Oh, and about 40 Screener / Rating Only releases of feature films. Same applies.
1080p is still only a vertical resolution, not a ppi improvement. I've had greater than 1080p on my PC since before "HD" was coined as a phrase. Since then, all i've seen is screen sizes get bigger with no resolution increase, resulting in a ppi DECREASE!
Apple's Retina display caused my heart to skip a beat the first time I saw it; It's like looking at a photo under a glass cover compared to any other screen I've seen. Put that pixel density on a 17" screen and the CAD world will throw money at you.
I go to a cinema and I buy a ticket, I get one experience of the work, and it costs me around £7 for 2 hours entertainment.
As most AAA games cost £35 for the PC now, I expect 5x as much entertainment for that price. If I don't get 10 hours enjoyment from your AAA title game minimum, you failed to produce a good AAA title. It has nothing to do with me being impatient, it has to do with repetitive gameplay, shallow plot, broken gameplay mechanics, buggy code, and value for money.
I will gladly pay for AAA titles which give me a great gameplay experience, and I would very much enjoy them to last well over 10 hours (I don't have New Vegas yet, but if it's anything like Fallout 3, I'll be losing days playing it, not hours).

samzenpus = timothy = kdawson. They all post inflammatory, poorly researched bullshit.

It's almost as though they want people to leave
What good is it for anyway ?? Absolutely nothing !!
You're thinking of "war". Easy mistake to make.
Origin is anti-competitive, because EA has pulled their games from Steam.
And nothing of value was lost.

But if you want to get a rough idea, just go outside, hold your eyelids open, and stare at the sun for 13 minutes. Let us know how that turns out.
To begin with it was fine, if a little dull. Then I turned to page 3, and the blindness you're all worried about kicked in.
Those games don't make it out of the store in my hands, let alone onto my PC. I don't think I'm missing out on much.

The PM made it clear that he was talking about stopping specific individual's access to social networking, not the whole population's access to it.
