Internalising the externalities *cough* *splutter*
Including the true costs *happy sigh*
I like being specific about things, but I Hate using confusing terminology, of course my day job in desktop support means that tailoring my use of terminology to the client's understanding is vital.
One of our Australian politicians complained about the 'unsightly' windmills in farms as he drove along a major highway. He didn't mention the concrete barriers that blocked his view of a major coal mine as he drove along the same road.
Perhaps I've been watching too many Miyazaki films, but I quite like seeing windmills, of all kinds.
If you're talking about Fossil Fuel-powered plants, the pollution kills plenty of birds.
PV doesn't, but solar thermal does (the birds fly into the heat waves from the mirrors).
They're implying that there are Not always other jobs to be had for workers, so getting stuck in a dangerous factory job being overseen by a callous boss is in fact a very real situation for millions of people.
What a pity that there are huge barriers to entry in just about every market in the world (and especially most of the ones that make you a lot of money), that the bankers went to school with the stock market traders and don't like new people, that we keep ending up with Crony Capitalism, instead of the pure as the driven snow Capitalism that so many people think should exist.
And family money Really helps people get serious in business.
There's a relatively simple solution to overpopulation: Make sure all of the girls get a good education. It is very powerful at driving down birth rates, and improving things generally.
If you RTFA, you'll notice that it is the materials used in the sails that have changed, making it efficient enough to be worthwhile.
Ah, but this is/. how many RTFA??
This comment, is just, so, well, 1991, but also, ya'know, like, referential and stuff.
I dunno, I can't come up with a really cool comment like I was hoping, but I Really got a kick out of yours:D
Exactly. In my desktop support job I can login to dozens of servers, laptops, desktops, tablets, running W7, 8, 10, etc. in one day, and for basic tasks it is oh so very nice to have a reliable set of tools that will be accessible no matter what level of Admin rights I have on that machine in that moment while trying to fix problems.
Why should a person have to get money from individuals for his defense, when the system should have protected him? He's an excellent example of someone working Inside the system, for the system's benefit, in fact for the entire global online-user population, he should be given kudos and privacy if he wants it, not a target on his back.
How about #5, a political class cowed by a runaway Fleet Street who can tap telephone lines, expose an individual's private information, etc., without serious fear of fines or actual action? There is a balance between a free press and a right to privacy, a need to know, and a valid desire to not have your personal information everywhere. Perhaps the Public Interest test needs to be applied more often, with punishments for getting it badly wrong.
Exactly, I don't care much if they're sniping at each other in the press, it's when they start throwing up notifications when I'm otherwise busy is when I started getting angry.
The problem with Mars is actually that the atmosphere is too thin to use parachuts, no matter how large, to land anything of size enough to be useful to use for serious exploration or human visits. The Mars Landers pushed the limits of what we could put on the surface without using retrorockets.
TOWs were used on helicopters, but were quickly replaced by more fire-and-forget munitions, or ones that could be guided by other laser-designators (for example a ground spotting team). It's much easier to hide from enemy fire in a trench/behind earthworks and use a TOW than to use it while hovering in a helicopter.
I think it's more that facts and science have a liberal 'bias'. Also, the majority of people tend to be at least a bit progressive, and humans are sensitive to what people around them think.
Mod Parent Up, this is an excellent use of existing resources. If you're looking for extra Karma, collect some of the e-mails that relate to certain areas and use OneNote's various folder systems to organise them. Both Outlook and OneNote are bog-standard in most enterprises, anyone will be able to support access to the files, and using some kind of half-way useful naming structure will have the new hire praising your name (in private at least).

No, it relied on people opening compromised files via email or network stored files, it wasn't self propagating.

Also, has 'Skywalker' seen all of the Star Wars films or just Episode Seven? The Nation wants to know! Much respect hangs on the answer.
*Bang* *Zip* To the Moon! Which show you know this reference from may indicate how old you are, or how much classic TV you were exposed to as a child.
So many people say "But I hate all of the choices" and I say "Well get involved in politics and work to put better people on the ballot"

It's idiotic to ship it down to planet-side, but what if you wanted to build things in space, using materials you found there?
Only if you never want to move data into or out of the network, ever, except by manual user input.

What if he has a gun And a banana?
I agree, the synergies here are obvious, and everybody benefits.
