In December there is 0 kgC/km^2 generated in the US?
There's something I think a lot of people are missing here. This map is showing the Carbon produced when it is stripped away from an Oxygen molecule. It does not reflect the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere at a given time. This is the reason why the Hemisphere that is in Summer is so colorful and explains the reason why the Ocean is purple... because its constantly converting CO2 to C and O2.
Yes, but according to the map, every piece of land including bumble-fuck Canada and South America are producing CO2. Even over the ocean according to this map there is C02 production, even though the absorption is greater b/c there is no production.
I'm not trying to be critical here, but I do not completely believe this data. Its given to us in an incredibly misleading way. They are essentially telling us that every square foot of the planet produces more CO2 than O2 which is simply not possible. There's no mapping of negative production, so it looks like we're spiralling out of control.
Not to sound like an asshole, but I don't want everyone in the country voting. Especially those who are apathetic and have no motivation to begin with. For one, I honestly believe that on average those who vote are more intelligent, educated and obviously motivated about current events than those who do not. This is not to say that smart people always vote however, just that those who do are the motivated and educated ones who care about the country's goals.
Therefore, I don't want the unmotivated to be voting. I don't want people choosing a name because it sounds nice or they've seen an ad or two with that person. I especially don't want unmotivated people to vote for a person someone else dictates to.
Is the impracticality of the whole thing. For example, starting a grease car is a royal pain in the ass. First you need to heat the fuel line so that that grease flows before you can even attempt to hit the ignition. I can only imagine what other kinds of problems this produces...
Would you consider yourself a determined believer that extra-terrestrials exist? If (for the sake of discussion) you were to determine that we were, without a doubt the only life in the Universe, how would that impact any religious beliefs you may hold?
I personally believe that if we were to be the only life in the Universe that this would be divine intervention simply because of the statistics, would you agree?
.. and if you're worried about the range, you can always buy a $20 IR device that'll increase the range. The HP 5450 series is also WiFi and bluetoothe enabled, so its only a matter of writing an app to "network-enable" your remote.
Under Windows I'm sure its very simple because they don't distribute the files across 5000 directories. Under Linux its a bit more difficult. I'm just wondering why nobody has created a tool or standard installer for the set.
I've spent on the order of tens of hours just trying to get PHP, MySQL and Apache to play friendly together with no success. I've decided that when someone creates a PHP, MySQL, Apache integrated distribution, then I'll return to trying it out. Until then, I'll stick to Apache + Perl or Tomcat.... It makes building a KnowledgeBase app much more difficult though!
In violation of what? We could obliterate Iraq off the face of the Earth and it would be completely legal under Article 1441. That is using their own beaurocratic red-tape. The UN is made up of spineless countries, the majority of which are dominated by dictators. The remaining are countries like France whom I can't even expect them to defend their OWN country, let alone help defend us.

BTW, you're the worst kind of asshole. You're the Ignorant Asshole.
I do not have the burden of proof. Nobody has yet stated evidence that this was even remotely possible from an engineering stand-point. Only people's imaginations. So again, you show me scientific proof that this is possible both physically and economically.
Google's API docs give as an example an application which would notify you of new documents that appear in a particular search. In order to truely successfully implement this, you'd need to be able to index much much more than the 1000 hits that google allows. Anyone done this using HTTP rather than Google's API?
As a research project, this is interesting. The concept is interesting. As a potential candidate for transportation, its next to impossible. Its so improbable that I'm amazed that people can consistently talk about it as if it'll eventually happen.
Are you serious? "DMCA Blackmail Request"??? Please. If you're even suggesting that MS would cross reference IP addresses with the names it could potentially get from ISP's, all I can do is laugh. Perhaps (and I'm telling you, this is a long shot), if they had a reason to target you specifically for legal reasons, but I'm willing to bet that it hasn't ever happenned and will never happen. Nobody forces you to update your system anyways...
Microsoft merely states that they do not send any PERSONAL information. As I see it, having them receive an inventory of what is installed on the machines helps greatly with statistical analysis for errata. If they send data about whats installed but you're anonymous, what difference does it make? Its not like they're tracking webclicks or personal information.
Not only that, but this gathering of data is done outside the United States. I have no problem snooping on anyone, even Americans, so long as its not done within the US.
Does anyone care? I know I don't. The "Academy" is just a bunch of agenda biased rich people, much like the Nobel prize committee. I have rarely felt that anyone winning an Oscar had actually earned it because they were particularly talented, versus luck of being on the receiving end of a publicity campaign...

Authors routinely deny claims like this because they are afraid of being sued.

If you're going to use the protocol argument, then you should stick with the IETF's SIMPLE protocol.
Yeah, leave out the MySQL part...
This root level vulnerability has been in every SAMBA distro since its conception... 8 yrs and nobody has found it?

Green shift? You mean Blue Shift.
This would also mean that the same junk that was flung out from the big bang could eventually collide.
I personally don't buy it however.

I'm not trying to be a troll here, but the UN has demonstrated, quite effectively, its inability and unwillingness to enforce anything.
Can you please explain to me wtf you're talking about? Windows Update has nothing to do with licensing.
Keep digging.
