Private sector is a wasteful way of handling it though, things of safety, health, infrastructure or required for life should not have profit as an option for it. Profit in those areas is a theft from the people, because all those things are required for the population to live, and they have to pay for it anyway and should be provided at cost. The only way to profit in those areas is by cheating the people of the service by providing substandard service, or by overcharging for the service. Thats it. Both are theft, and both are reprehensible. Defending profit in those sectors is flat out evil.
There was a case where a city had a vote to stop publicly funding street lights and the vote passed. In that city, the wealthy then got together, and bought street lights for their own neighborhood. This project ended up costing 25% more than it would have cost them to put them in everywhere in the city, but the wealthy preferred this wasteful spending because it wasn't helping the poor, and it was going to force them to boot strap their own lights. There are still no lights providing the very safety they should in those poor areas, all because wealthy people would rather screw over their neighbors (at an extra cost to them no less) than to help one person they see is below them.
It's an incredibly immature position to want to remove the government, and to refuse to help the others in society. Society is designed about the betterment of all, it's root word is social. Sociopath is based also off this word, and means to have a lack of a social conscience. That town is full of sociopaths, as is the tea party, the republican party and the rest of the people who think we need to "bootstrap" our way out of a problem that the people screaming it never have been up against. Profiting off the essential services of the nation is the act of a sociopath. Voting for someone who wants to harm our nation like that is an act of a sociopath.
And the department of energy, so nuclear material and nuclear reactors will be unregulated and not inspected.
Ron Paul would be us voting for creating our own disasters. A vote for him is a vote to give the death blow to America, and let him and his friends profit off the final execution of it.
Gold's only value is one we give it. It has very little practical use other than ornamental and electronics. Gold is as fiat of a currency as paper is, but people drinking Ron Paul and Glen Beck's koolaid missed that just before they started telling everyone to buy gold they put nearly their entire fortune in it, now that gold is at an all time high in price, they've been dumping it. They are profiting off the people pushing for the falsehood that is the "gold standard"
Claiming copyright infringement isn't theft isn't to degrade the point of the work, but to remove the false equivalence of the deprivation of another of a good. Copying something in a manner that does not utilize the resources of the seller is in no way removing or harming said seller provided the individual who copied would have not purchased it if there was no free option. If anything at that point it adds value and gives the seller a form of free advertisement, where they then will tell their friends "look at what I got" and some of them may end up purchasing it through legal means.
This is the same reason the "every case of piracy is a lost sale" falls flat on it's face, because the vast majority of pirates had no intention to ever make said purchase, but instead only picked it up because there was no cost to them on it. If it carried a cost, they would have passed on it.
Well, it's a good thing that fluoride is a radiation inhibitor then huh?
Theres a lot of people here who seem to not know much of basic LFTR design, and should look it up. Hint - Everything in the post I responded to is wrong. Same with any post that thinks it can catch fire, or that the fluoride ever comes in contact with water, or that it can ever melt down (thorium is self regulating in a unique way) or that shutting it down is irreversible or extremely expensive to fix
To be fair, if your walking you are taking a very large risk anyway and should be paying attention since you aren't protected by a steel cage, especially if you walk the Monday after daylight savings time switch happens (single highest pedestrian death day each year)
Plus the fact you can't assign points or suspend a license without being able to 100% validate who was driving the vehicle. The vehicle can be fined (or towed if theres enough) for violations, but the "I let someone borrow my car" defense has worked in the past when they tried to suspend a license based on the camera.
Actually, theres sufficient evidence that shows they make the roads more dangerous because of sudden stops to avoid said tickets, and have done little to curb others that would run it anyway. They also have a habit of taking pictures during green lights and submitting tickets for those.
Not really. There are people on here who have worked on ICBM's, there are people here who work at CERN, there are people here who are experts in nuclear physics with regards to power generation. All you can talk about in any detail is how to run your PC or be a good sys admin. There are many diverse forms of the nerd community. I know I cross a few different spots of it, some I can talk about, some that I wont.
There are many highly intelligent individuals on here though, and I know a few people who work for NASA and Copenhagen suborbitals post here frequently.
I agree that it would have been preferable to use kelvin, but the point still stands that the submitter was trying to relate to the common reader, so he opted for the imperial scale.
It wasn't a scientific paper, it wasn't a scientific press release. It wasn't even in TFA. It was strictly in TFS.
Because they won't let me relay my own domain through it, it sucks big fat donkey balls and it's subject to far tighter restrictions than what I use to send outbound.
I run all my outbound mail through a good spam filter (that forces all outbound to be scanned, regardless if it makes it through the mail server) and have a fairly open file size limitation (20MB, compared to last I tested Verizons 5 MB)
My outbound proxy has no size limitations, my outbound proxy handles all blacklist issues, and my outbound proxy handles all RFC compliance issues (it's dyn, they aren't a bit player)
In the end, filtering it through dyn just works, trying to send through verizon ends in frustration.
Awesome science stuff happens, queue 300 posts of retards bitching about the unit of measurement a writer chose to use so the public he writes to can relate easier.
If you have an issue with the measurement don't bitch and moan, do the conversion and move on. That's what those of us raised on the imperial scales do when we see metric stuff posted (unless we were those fortunate to have grown up learning both)
I have to use a mail proxy, not because I spam (we send about 20 emails a month) but because verizon blocks port 25 outbound, and won't let me get a static IP at home for my mail server.
I pay 20/year for my mail proxy, gives me 200/mo that we never hit.
I have never seen with my own eyes anyone using 10baseT over Cat 3 cabling. I've heard rumors, but never seen it. In my experience, prior to the introduction of Cat 5 most people who were using 10baseT were doing so over coaxial cable.
I had to wire it a few times in the 90's. They had a phone run to a room and needed to convert it to data, usually a converted bank vault or that sort where we couldn't get another wire in because some retard thought it was a bright idea to do poured reinforced concrete with the wire inside the damned concrete rather than conduit.
Real people to them are corporations and those stealing... Sorry. Making more than 250k/year are also people. Everyone else is a leach, even if they pay more in taxes than the so called real people.
There are people making multiple millions who pay exactly 0% in taxes. These are "job creators" but the numbers show that job creation is at an all time high when we tax these so called job creators significantly.
We need to stop letting them use the American population as a slave labor force, and stop letting them use the American wealth as their personal score cards between them. They create nothing, they provide nothing, they contribute nothing, we shouldn't give them such a disproportionately high percentage of the nations economic power.
I say we eat the rich and give the things they stole back to the people they stole it from.
I know, it's too bad that Romney didn't make it so we can have the government legislating fucking, the right to be with someone you care about, robbing everyone to give to the rich so they can get the highest score and privatizing profits while nationalizing their debt. Instead we have a president that wants to tax the robber barons, legislate people owning property they created, and making sure people are treated when they get sick instead of dying in the street due to a toothache.
Fuck Romney, he was a failure of a man, and would have ruined this nation. Anyone who doesn't see that is a horrible person that needs to learn what it's like to be human before hurt themselves
Don't bother, people like him think that if something bad happens to them it'll magically fix itself, because they live in a just world. If it doesn't it's Obama's fault (not the fault of people like him who chose to not support and gut every program that was designed to help when something bad happens)
The thing is, if everyone kept full coverage on their cars, they wouldn't be driving these pieces of shit cars that fall apart at intersections because they couldn't afford to repair it when they ran into that school bus because they were too busy texting while driving down the highway.
I hate to say this, but Jersey shore and the like are still art, they are horrible, but that doesn't really take the ability to call them art away sadly.

Seriously that should be something he puts up top - Click the damned red button. I wish I would have known about that a long time ago thats for sure.

America refuses to sign generates more outrage than everyone except Iran refuses to sign.

Can we also nuke Wales? (not whales, I like the giants of the sea)
Even shitty art is still art.
I hate to say this, but Jersey shore and the like are still art, they are horrible, but that doesn't really take the ability to call them art away sadly.
The CEO is still the one in charge, he should ultimately be responsible for the actions of his company.
Oh to have mod points. Thanks for brining up that horrible yet hilarious movie. I need to download that and watch it for the hundredth time now.
