No, a large rich arrogant country with a lot of infrastructure built around its standards that would cost a fortune to change.
Actually, since so much of the major companies/manufacturers/infrastructure needs to deal with international standards, they're already dealing in Metric and the like, they'd probably be just as happy to get rid of US Imperial too.
How would his ISP know he was buying bootlegs at Penn Station, copying them, and dropping them in the mailbox? Sure, casual monitoring is pretty prevalent, but not quite *that* much yet..../BTW, go put on some pants.
Clicked on the 'hompage' link in your message header to see what sort of stuff you write. Got a domain parking site that tried to give me a nasty of some sort. FYI.
They could have, at the very least, made the photo's hands match the character model.
They took the picture, and 'shopped out the ring and pinky fingers. Only when you look at a quarian's hands, they have a thumb, a finger, a large gap, and another finger. Like chopping out the middle and ring finger.
It was just half-assed and stupid. Make the face look like the voice actress. Or something. Something other than a stock photo with lens flare and poor 'shopping.
I'd dispute that. There is trust in science; more accurately, there is trust in scientists.
I can go into my garage, and replicate all sorts of experiements. Tyson had a wonderful essay, called something like 'stick in the mud science' about all of the things you can figure out with a stick, a string, and a rock.
However, I can't go into my garage and duplicate most particle physics. Genetics. Medicine. All sorts of stuff. That stuff, I have to take on trust.
Note, I don't say 'faith.' I prefer to use the term 'confidence.' One has faith in one's god, one has confidence in scientific consensus.
Assuming these are American conservatives, I find that odd, as they claim to be big on defence and military, and the American military has always used it's technological prowess as a force multiplier.
Science disagrees? Can you explain how XX vs XY is not a difference? Testosterone vs estrogen? The difference in size? The difference in bone structure, including skull, jaw, and pelvis? Significant size difference in tracheae, hearts, red blood cell count? Differences in brain structure?
Seriously. Men and women are different. In plain and obvious ways. This isn't to say that one is inferior to the other, or that we need different standards of treatment, or whatever.
Seems to me, this has a long and fine history in the old US of A. Why, back in the civil war, it was 300 dollars for a substitute to avoid the draft!
Seems to me, for a mere hundred dollars, this is a bargain.
On a slightly more serious note, the implications that the US of A has valued the damage caused by 9/11 to be $1900 USD (2001), or about $2443 USD right now, are interesting. As I recall, there were 19 hijackers. But hell, lets double it to 38. $3800 USD was the price the American government would, therefore, have put on the entire thing.
And yet, reality has already shown how this works:
0) Start by making something good, although probably for free,thus starting to build a reputation; 1) Offer to do something, for money.... 2) Watch your fans/community/users/whatever turn on you like a pack of piranna, for they have come to expect, nay, are entitled by the very gods, to the fruits of your labour for free. Sellout!

MongoDB is webscale. It has sharding. That is the secret webscale sauce.

Yeah, kinda like the *NIXs dropped fsck so long ago.

? As an 'ex-member' of Audible, I still download books I bought way back in 2000 and listen to them on my iPhone.
The kinect has a multi-array microphone, and does noise cancellation and voice isolation. It also provides a standard API for doing voice recognition.
One could try Microsoft Small Basic. Some self-directed learning guides are available on the site as well.
Silliest thing I ever managed was to plug a flight controller into an ethernet AUI port. The magic smoke started to come out and everything.
To be fair, it's very strongly implied that different races see Asari as ideal female versions of themselves.

Us Canuckistanians tend to use debit for anything more than a few bucks. Timmies already makes sure their prices come out to a nice even number.

No Siri cuz you can't guarantee a network connection. iPhone, you can, or at least, you can come a lot closer. iPad 3 32gb with wifi only; nope.
...? Men and women are different. Physically, biochemically, culturally, socially.

Bah. Electoral fraud, by definition, *is* treason.
Nope. It's a right that can be taken away in various circumstances, not a privilege that is granted at discretion. There is a difference.
Sorry, they're still busy running a query on a guy, involving a table lock and several joins.
Well, what did you expect?
Quick! Travel back in time and tell Linus Torvalds not to reimplement decades-old UNIX!
