A spinning turbine acts much like a gyroscope. Sudden changes in direction tend to cause them to tear themselves apart. You push on a spinning gyro and it tries to move 90 deg. from the direction it's being pushed.
This caused major problems when they started putting terrain following radar in jet fighters and turbines in tanks.
If I knowingly loan one of my guns or vehicles to someone I know, or should know, to be a problem, I would expect to be held liable to some degree. If, however, someone steals one of these things or otherwise accesses them without my permission, the liability is theirs.
... I hadn't just gotten a Samsung Series 5 550 about a week and a half ago. I don't regret my purchase, so far anyway. My life was already in the cloud, I just went with it;)
One could build something that way using flour, an egg & milk or water concoction, and a paint brush. You can bake it to assist in bonding & solidification.
The other part I had difficulty with was that after keeping his speeding car on the road and under control for over an hour...He looses it and hits the ditch once he runs out of gas?
He couldn't keep it on the road the few seconds for it to coast to a stop? There is something wrong with this picture.
I am getting irritated with Youtube , and other services lately, that are making recommendations to me based on what I looked at in the past.
Just because it caught my interest once, does NOT mean I'm looking for a steady diet of it. So a 'cute cat' video caught my attention once... I DO NOT want to see a list of 100 'cute cat' videos staring me in my face the next time I go into YouTube!!
A friend of mine, now retired, used to be one of the 'webmasters' for a local credit union.
They took a very lax attitude for passwords and site security in general, their attitude being that it simply wasn't worth the time and trouble to worry about security...That's what the Insurance Company was for.
People like to think the insurance companies as fair game, but when they take a hit, they pass the costs back to their customers in the form of higher rates. The financial institutions pass those higher rates on to these customers.
It's no different than when stores take a hit from shoplifters. The costs pass back to the customers in the form of higher prices.
Ask a Business Reporter an off the cuff question about science and you deserve the answer you get. About like asking the posters here about a good financial investment.
If they disclose this on clearly the package, similarly to what is done w/ cigarettes, I have no issues with it. The labeling certainly hasn't done much to stop the sale of tobacco.
As far as I'm concerned, they can put key-loggers, root-kits, or whatever the hell else they want as long as they make the consumer aware.
For an icon, they could use a 'human looking' figure. Bent forward, pants down, maybe holding a jar of Vaseline?
I, of course, won't be buying it. But I wasn't buying it anyway.
and it works in my world. Maybe it doesn't in yours...
I don't have it set up yet, but I noticed someone said these can't be dual booted. Yet I find sites where people state they have these things dual booting w/ Ubuntu & Fedora. I plan on trying this shortly.
If all the ISPs go in strike, I'm shut down anyway... My cellphone is AT&T which I hear is essentially a voip system, or rapidly being converted to one, any more. My office is all voip telephones. I do real estate and that entire system is net based anymore. Even if I still had a land-line at home, I don't, if the local ISPs go on strike, they are also our local phone companies. I suspect that if one side goes down, so does the other.
I personally don't believe in the concept of 'to big to fail'. Beyond that, what right does someone have to tell me how large I (or my company) can grow and who draws those lines anyway?
Didn't Microsoft do the same thing a couple of years ago... Waited until the government told us told us we shouldn't have Windows computers connected to the Internet before they finally fixed several major security holes in IE?
My Android phone gives me a work-around though. I have discovered there is a way to have calls from numbers in my address book routed straight to voice-mail. Each telemarketer gets one shot at calling me, then I add that No. to my address book entry labeled 'Telemarketer' and I never hear from them again. I have never had a robo-caller leave me a voice-mail. Blocked numbers I just avoid answering.

If anyone does buy this, it will likely be only because it has an Apple logo on it.
Pilot's butt isn't on the line...

Look her up ;) He reportedly did this because his brother was the publisher and wouldn't publish him if he knew it was his brother, but...
It seems to be worded a little differently, but this sounds an awful lot like that "look & feel" thing Apple beat Microsoft on some years back.
They expect to market, to geeks, clothing marketing snail-mail. Must be playing to the nostalgia factor.
And I can download your 5 lb. textbook onto my tablet in of a couple of minutes for less than $4 as well, Weighs less this way too ;)

I was thinking more like guest access on a Google Chrome device and DNS filtered through something like OpenDNS.

Acually, you probably want to 'move' the virtual machine, just to keep it legal (maybe) ;)

Don't tell me we don't pay for this!
I have an Android phone and generally avoid the 'free' apps. I look for a paid version.
The 'free' apps tend to want me to give them permissions for things I don't want them to have.

...when Microsoft gave all that money to Apple a few years back. Apple was all but gone at the time, Microsoft essentially saved 'em.

It's NOT your computer. You're just renting it from Steve. You could rent one from Bill instead, if you think it'l help any ;)
...it appears to be free on Roku, so you're getting what you paid for. Move along or wait for it to come back, your choice.

Passing more laws is not going to help.
