Such a film cold on one side hot on the other could potentially be used to condense water from the air on the cold side in a hot environment. Useful in desert conditions.
While I think the MPAA / RIAA efforts are misplaced, at least they are focusing on the pirate sites instead of everyone else. Like mass lawsuits / extortion letters / settlements with individual downloaders. That approach sure won the hearts and minds of potential customers.
I think you missed a key word.

That makes it more accurate as it was ignoring the RIAA phase of suing / threatening to sue people till they gave in and paid up regardless of guilt.
But when it comes to battery technology, our AC is right to be bitter (but is still an idiot to call it 'fake news', of course): we see these stories every few months, and literally none of them ever come to fruition.

Wrong. Some of us remember when all our electronics with rechargeables had NiCads with their infamous memory effect. The lithiums we use now were one of those "stories" of new battery types and it did of course come to fruition. What is needed is one where the price/performance is equal or better than existing models then we will transition to the new design for those it makes sense to do. I suspect this one by using a solid lithium rather than a lithium compound (I know of lithium/manganese and lithium/cobalt on the market) is more expensive per battery than the compound batteries.
First doesn't matter. Doing it right matters. The US has the best space tech in the world. Trump's going to ruin that, sure, but at least for now we're good.
Really? So when was the last time American astronauts rode into space on an American rocket? What about all those Russian rocket engines the U.S. buys?
Such storage is USELESS for certain types of people. Those with limited bandwith per month. Those with limited speed. And those who want/need PRIVACY for their data. I'm sure others can be found that makes your "cloud" worthless, those are just off the top of my head.
Computing as a service is taking over. Why do your processing on a slow machine when you can have access to a remote rendering farm. This is the future.
it's pretty simple, poors want free stuff and they want to be recognized for their frugality
so, the poors that can only use Linux because they can't afford PCs or macs now have a vested interest in Linux succeeding because a) they want the free ride to continue and b) they can claim some level of expertise for a nice computer janitor job
now you get to SCO vs IBM. If IBM wins, AIX becomes the standard Unix instead of smelly hippie free "as in beer and speech!!!!" Linux. poor Linux "admins" can't have that, it takes away the gravy train in favor of professionals so... it all makes sense when you think about the idiot poors that are trying hard to be real IT pros.
this also explains why stories like databases with no admin password exposed to the internet getting hacked become news.
Bullshit. If you are poor the machines you can buy come with Windows in the price tag. Linux machines are virtually always higher priced because the manufacturers don't get paid to install all the crapware/trial ware on the system. People who use Linux do so because they WANT to. They use Windows because it comes with the system and it is what they know already.
Let's be honest, it's an open secret that the Linux kernel contains large sections of copyrighted code from SCO UNIX. For those familiar with both collections of source code, it was generally assumed that SCO would win their lawsuit, and simply a question of what the fallout would be. Although dismissed out of hand by IBM and members of the open source community who were constantly moving the goalposts, SCO did provide a comprehensive list of source files and line numbers in Linux that matched portions of SCO UNIX. The fact is, SCO's claims of copyright violations by Linux developers and users were valid, factual, and completely legal. To this day, the Linux kernel contains large sections of copyrighted code that came straight from SCO UNIX. The open source community generally is vocal in favoring the "little guy" against large corporations like Microsoft and Google, whose motives and actions are frequently called into question. It's bemoaned that the so-called little guy is unlikely to stand a chance against the massive and well-funded legal teams retained by large corporations. This is for good reason, that everyone should be entitled to the same rights, regardless of their ability to afford top notch legal teams. SCO was the little guy compared to IBM, a small company with limited resources simply trying to ensure their copyrights were protected. IBM squashed them like a bug, not because the lawsuit was invalid. In fact, SCO's claims of copyright infringement are generally accepted as mostly correct. Rather, IBM had the legal resources to draw out legal battles and win a war of attrition against SCO, no matter the validity of the claims. If the open source community truly cares about ensuring the little guy has the same rights as large corporations, they should have been supporting SCO against a behemoth like IBM. To this day, I fail to understand the hypocrisy in supporting the little guy against giants like Apple and Microsoft, but rooting for another giant, IBM, to decimate SCO.
Sorry Jeff but you must have missed the memo. The SCO Group lost all that in court. They didn't have a legal leg to stand on. They are bankrupt with no assets. Have a nice day.
The recount in Pennsylvania is NOT dropped. The State Court case was dropped and REPLACED with a Federal one. So the attempt for a recount is on, just in a higher court.
He is going to be our next president for the next ten years. You're not going to fight this, you're going to shut up, and like it. Get over it already. You're redefining what it means to be a sore loser. No matter what you do you're only getting more people to support God-Emperor Trump, and hate liberalism in all its forms. Congratulations, this is exactly why you lost, and why you will keep on losing.
He can only be elected to two 4 year terms (total of 8 years). I can't see him running as some one else's vice President running mate on the hope that the President would leave office and let him take over for a partial term to exceed the 2 term limit.
I'm sure that somewhere in a 8-12 hour period when the polls are open, people will get a lunch break to use if they want to vote.
I work in another city (10 hour shifts) I get 1/2 an hour for lunch and DON'T drive. Its a 35 minute walk to my closest public transit connection. So my Lunch doesn't exactly cover it.
If you need to "find out to be sure" you're one of those lunatics still in denial. I'd punch you in the face if it were legal, but unfortunately even blunt force trauma cannot reverse the brain damage that liberalism has already done.
Did you apply the same standard to Birthers (like Trump) who couldn't get over it that Obama won TWICE?
"UNLESS Darren Wilson pursued while shooting at Brown. Yeah, Wilson LIED and yeah, eyewitness testimony says Wilson attempted to run over Brown and then shot him.
So you are saying that a cop should NOT pursue a fleeing criminal? Remember even the autopsies done for the parents say that Brown was NOT shot in the back but was facing the cop. First I've heard the claim of the cop trying to run over Brown.

According to how companies and governments use it 1984 was a How-To book.

So much for the Trump Carrier deal.

Win7 doesn't have the builtin access that our modern society needs to make sure you're not guilty of independent thought.
At least you no longer need to worry IF you computer is infected. The rest of us still do have that worry though it is a small one.
unlimited cloud storage,

Given that Microsoft is a convicted abusive monopolist it is reasonable to assume malicious intent.
