Agreed. Unfortunately, the real problem is a lack of sane firearm regulations, and any talk of that is greeted with howls of outrage. Welcome to 'Murca.
"In Bavaria the Royal College of Doctors, having been consulted, declared that railroads, if they were constructed, would cause the greatest deterioration in the health of the public, because such rapid movement would cause brain trouble among travelers, and vertigo among those who looked at moving trains. For this last reason it was recommended that all tracks be enclosed by high board fences raised above the height of the cars and engines.
Rail travel at high speed is not possible because passengers, unable to breathe, would die of asphyxia."
- Dr. Dionysus Lardner (1793-1859), Professor of Natural Philosophy and Astronomy at University College, London.
Now lets do some basic math. Suppose that you let the air in at 1/3 the speed of sound in order to protect equipment and people. Assume no friction and that the air travels down the pipe as a plug.
This is the only way you can think of to fill a tube with air? Really?
oxygen production typically lasts at least 15 minutes
Do you want to speculate how long it will take to extract people from a hyper loop capsule?
Here, let me help you. 1. Time to locate the capsule 2. Time for the Hyperloop Emergency Extraction Team to respond. 3. Time transport man lifts to the location of the capsule at some arbitrary point between the start and finish location 4. Time to safely raise those man lifts to to the height of the pipe 5. Time to safely cut through the pipe and capsule.
Because there's no way you could let air into the tunnel, of course.
Claustrophobia has nothing to do with seat size. Imagine a failure mode where the power goes off, the screens die and all movement stops. And the only way to get out is someone on the outside with a power saw.
Yeah, we've never run trains in tunnels before. Probably can't be done.
But the device doesn't contain any onboard air supply - instead it relies on the driving compressor/fan assembly to compress the air to a human sustainable amount.
If we privatize the water, then competition will simultaneously allow greater resource utilization at a lower cost and with greater access for everyone. Guaranteed.
Is this the un"adjusted" raw data, or does it have the various "adjustments" that have been applied to the historical data before in past releases?
Bwaahhahahah! Do you think they would actually release the real data? As we all know, governments are putting so much cash into climate change research that the money has totally distorted the scientific process. Hence the global conspiracy to secure as much as one million dollars of research money by the evil scientists, using any means available to hoodwink the public.
Expect no truth from them. You must find it yourself, thermometer in hand. The truth is out there.
Why would anyone, ever, think that me not looking at their ad should be illegal? I mean, are we that far gone that it's even conceivable to have the courts forcing me to view ads?
I look forward to the day when somebody makes augmented reality glasses that block meatspace advertising like billboards, TVs in airports and bars, logos on clothes, all it. I'll be the first in line.

yeah in the USA the rioters start wrecking stuff when they lose a football game, that's SO much more important
Well, the French do that to. Also when they win a football game.
Systemd: as bad as Hitler, or as bad as killing puppies?
... hire enough faculty to teach the students.
Really, you should be able to cope with this sort of change. It's minor, and this isn't your site.
But you don't understand! They moved my button! It has rendered me completely helpless!
what if your OS writes program memory to unencyphered swap?
Luckily, encrypting the swap partition on Linux is trivially easy:

Only an idiot would encrypt their hard drives and not their swap partition.
We'll see if CV Dazzle becomes fashionable.
Calling the guy who came up with Scroogled a "mastermind" is a bit of a stretch, if you ask me.
Pete from Oz seems to have some 'limitations' in his own mind.
It'll never work!

And how quick do you want to do that?
That's a tough one.
Maybe over a span of fifteen minutes or so?

Yeah, we've never operated passenger compartments full of people in low-pressure environments before. There's probably no way to do that safely.

What could possibly go wrong?.

Driving a little bit erratically will stop about 80% of that without increasing your own accident risk
an 18 wheeler changing lanes into me without signaling as I was passing it on the right.
Have you opened a driving school yet? Many wayward souls could benefit from your wisdom.
I really hope someone figures out something better than what we have right now.
I have an idea: autonomous cars. They would prevent all of these things.
I think the "32 megabytes—roughly the size of ten compressed music files" part is even more insulting.
True that. It should have been in Libraries of Congress.
No.

Check your "Tools" menu. It's the item called "Extensions".
Oh, right, Android. Please downmod me to oblivion.
Does this mean someone will enable extension support?

A kitchen device that can only be used for one purpose is a waste of space.
Except for espresso.
This is going to go well.
