I doubt that money is DotCom's main objective. He could easily live his dream of being an independent larger-than-life millionaire on the money he made with MU. Why sacrifice all that and become a middle manager at Disney?
I don't know. His assets are frozen. The poor guy is down to a measly $70000 per month for himself his pregnant wife his nursemaid and his butler. He is the 99%
I don't know the boy scout. He might be an opportunist looking for reward. Did the old lady want to cross the street in the first place? In matters of ethics context is everything.
However, at first glance his actions appear to be mostly beneficial.
Yes they did a fine job with the phosphors on LED lighting. Just checked it again using a DVD for a grating and the spectrum of the LED lighting is continuous (as far as I can tell without building a spectroscope) unlike the spectrum of CFLs which clearly shows discontinuities.
Don't take my word for it. Bring a DVD to a lighting store and see for yourself.
IME (my home is almost exclusively lit by LEDs) the spectrum of white LED lighting is continuous. Perhaps a bit more bumpy than incandescent but nothing at all like the line spectrum fluorescents produce..
The LED itself needs a heatsink as well. Like power transistors and CPUs, power LEDs produce loads of waste heat (less than incandecent or CFL but still a signifcant amount). Also LED life shortens significantly when heated above 50C or thereabouts, so the heatsinks need to be relatively large to dissipate enough heat at a small temperature difference.
"What," said Trillian in a small quiet voice, "does sundive mean?"
"It means," said Marvin, "that the ship is going to dive into the sun. Sun... Dive. It's very simple to understand. What do you expect if you steal Hotblack Desiato's stunt ship?"
"How do you know..." said Zaphod in a voice that would make a Vegan snow lizard feel chilly, "that this is Hotblack Desiato's stuntship?"
"Simple," said Marvin, "I parked it for him."
"The why... didn't... you... tell us!"
"You said you wanted excitement and adventure and really wild things."
If DNA was still alive he'd have to do a lot of rewriting.

How is jettisoning a disposable rocket stage not abandoning it?
Is the garbage that you put on the curb back in 1998 still your property?
Think of the upper body strength your average geek would gain. Millions of overweight slobs will turn into Tai Chi masters overnight.
No. Pointless.

No Dutch police thought that the iPhone theft was none of their business because that happened on an entirely different continent.

Same here. But they did alert me to the existence of "Big Tits In Uniform, Two Boob Salute.rar" so the site isn't all bad.

Remember the fate of David Nutt? Goverment advisors are not supposed to actually give advice of have an opinion of their own.

These days they can do wonders for myopics like you. There are glasses, contact lenses or they can fry your eyes with lasers.
I didn't know fascism was for rent.What's the parking situation like?
It's probably even simpler: Without a system of paved roads a wheel isn't all that useful.
That was the mid '70s.

I read that as "astrosurfing program" and it sounded a lot better than a couple of hired goons shilling for Uncle Vlad. Oh well...

I for one am really interested how Mr.Rossi plans to escape once the jig is up and how this will work out in reality.
