For me to use Windows, I would need Synaptic, Konqueror (as an FTP/SFTP client, haven't seen any others that don't frustrate me), Kate, Yakuake, kcolorchooser, and some of kwin's handy features like zoom and stick to top. I suppose most of those have Windows equivalents, but without Synaptic I wouldn't be able to easily find a safe trustable non-invasive equivalent.
If their apartment complex covers utilities then the complex may be interested in efficiency upgrades. At any rate, as a poor renter with a small space I use far less energy than the wealthy so my electricity bill is $20 a month. Need to raise that to $25 to save the planet? Alright.
I don't use activities, and KDE 4 has never tried to make me use them. There's no need to use widgets either. What's the problem? KDE has always been about having options, Gnome was the place to go for simplified lack of choice.
A slow commute isn't such an issue if you can spend it relaxing or working instead of driving... and even speeding by 15 MPH only saves a few minutes on a commute.
What can they hope to learn from this that they haven't/can't learn from the ISS? Scott Kelly is currently spending a year in space on the ISS, and many astronauts spend months together up there. So what's being tested in the ground experiment? Internet deprivation and delayed contact with control?
Because the billion plus people it brings more storm surge damages or routine flooding to will cost the world (that's you, taxpayer) trillions of dollars in damage mitigation. Sea level rises thousands of years ago cost you nothing.
I can believe that. The light on my computer monitor is so annoying that I had to tape over it, and my router blinking all the time is pretty annoying too.
They don't bother with such databases, they just query every site they can reach with a wordpress hack attempt whether it has a wordpress on it or not. After unsuccessfully attacking a few million sites, they gain a few thousand new hacked sites.
Homeless people are not 0.001% of the population, they're more like 1% of the population. And they're not a random 1%, they're a 1% with a lot of common needs and interests. That 1% block can swing many an election.
If an ID is going to be required to vote, the ID needs to be free and easy. Otherwise it's a poll tax -- many homeless beggars are citizens who deserve equal representation but they're unlikely to spend $10 to be able to vote. Making the non-driver ID free and easy is a good idea, of course, so why not focus on that before we talk about requiring it to vote?
The far north of California (where it rains 60 inches a year) has more than enough fresh water to supply the rest of the state if you build the infrastructure to move it and get the courts to agree to the environmental impact somehow.

GDP isn't a measure of worker productivity either, though. Often it's a measure of how much oil you've got.
a slave plantation, for example, would have a pretty decent income per capita.
Case in point: Equatorial Guinea looks like a first world country by per capita GDP, but the majority of the people live in extreme poverty.

You can make even more by auctioning the naming rights to the Earth. We can all live on Pepsi.

There's still going to be homeless people with dogs in SF, so you've still got to clean it up. The DNA fines may make the job more manageable though.
Also, what about people who own horses? I see horse manure on the streets not infrequently, and it's a lot worse than dog.

A multi-planet civilization needs to be able to build things from local resources. The raw materials on Mars are a lot easier to access than on Venus.
California's high speed rail project is also planned to have the same problem of not going into the cities.
I didn't like Kubuntu 15.04, so I switched to 14.04 LTS. What's wrong with KDE 4 until 5 is ready?
The average American of course commits 0 felonies a day, but by repeating that lie you're at least providing evidence for the lying part.

Oh, is that what those underlined phrases do? Never clicked one.
A school doesn't have the funds to provide a teacher with lawyers. Suspending a student, on the other hand, is free.

The Voyager probes have turned off most of their instruments and are still going to die in a few years, and it takes longer to reach the oort cloud.
If we went by pure economics, people in wheelchairs would have to pay big tolls at ramps to enter buildings.
The overlap between balls probably means you're only covering about 80-90% of the surface at best.
Those numbers would be if the sun is overhead all the time, but it's at an angle the vast majority of the time and the balls do have height.
That people willingly allow themselves to be tracked much of the time does not make it okay to unwillingly force them to be tracked all of the time.
