After nearly 10 years of strictly Linux I converted to MacOS in 2005ish. After the initial dreaminess wears off, it turns into quite the nightmare. You learn that it really has all the consistency of Windows and all the application support of Linux. I have moved on to Windows 7 (games) with Cygwin (work) for desktop, Linux for servers and Android for phone and tablet. Unless Windows 9 does a 180 I will likely be going back to Linux for the desktop. That's going to be a couple years away though at least.
Mobile device location-based remote hugging. Would be great if there was an app that could identify where your target was and find someone near by with the app that could forward on your hug to that person.
Wasn't part of the question, why cant the IDE take care of this? should be easy for it to store a table of VAR1="my var" then have a way of changing it to myVar when loaded into one persons view and my_var when loaded into someone else's view.
Because the powers that push the movement are less concerned with CO2 as much as they want to push humanity down the technological hole. Closing off all power sources. They are the modern day Luddites.
Because 95% of the "accepts the evidence as accurate" group are just true believers. They have unshakable faith in the evidence that points to their accepted belief and reject evidence against AGW as being some unholy uttering straight from Satan.
And be like me, needing a knee replacement at 45, still be over weight and when cutting calories and "dieting" feeling nothing but sleepy, grump and deprived. Sorry getting up of your lazy azz and stopping eating is not a solution.
Funny, common sense doesn't always mean right sense. This is one of those cases. If your someone whose body happens to crave right around the right amount of food then you are lucky. If not then it'd be nice to find out why.
2000 is flat out wrong anyway. it's something closer to 10 calories per pound of weigh. So for a 200 pound male it would be about 2000. for a 100 pound female it'd be closer to 1000. for a 500 pound obese person it takes closer to 5000 calories to sustain the extra fat that they have on them.
We don't talk about facts and history when talking about global warming. Were talking about the future and fortune tellers and the future is hotter and full of death and destruction.
Old geezers driving around in their RVs get to see a lot more. Us poor working shlubs paying for your retirement have to see this all happen on the news.
That's just the denialists talking. The current models can pretty much predict down to the week. There are some new systems that should be able to predict the day to day weather better than current standard meteorological methods. Within 10 years they expect to be able to predict the differences of weather from minute to minute on a 1 square meter resolution world wide. It's all very interesting stuff you should do some google searches.
There was an old lesson I learned growing up with Horses and later replacing with dirt bikes. When a dirt bike is sitting in the garage you don't have to continuously dump fuel in it.
I didn't check. Are there a lot of kick starts along the lines of "send me money so I can by the Chinese food restaurant in my neighborhood. I have no experience but just want to give it a try."
And yes there are stupid business owners. There are very few business creators. Also, The stupid ones don't last long.
So, using current tech and unlimited resources...What is the fastest space object that would do useful stuff we could make? I'm thinking a new voyager probe targeted at one of these systems. Is 1/10th of C even theoretically possible now?

An automated speed/red light camera ticketing an autopilot car. I think the first one to get issued needs to go into some type of art exhibit.

What do you mean? The Mayan apocalypse didn't happen. Looks like NASA did a perfect job in dispelling it.

Like I tell my wife, "I may not be good, but at least I'm fast!"
A great scientist once said "Everything is political."

Just like cancer.

That's almost as stupid as saying your car will get better gas mileage if you just put less gas in it.

Something from over 100 years ago where they built an airplane that barely flew 4 flights before crashing
And automobile deaths are on the rise while school shootings are getting more rare over the last 25 years.

Hell yea, if Korea were closer there'd be a lot more shootings.
Government issue, government property, ammo control and inventory is very strict.
running a business and delivering a product is hard. But business owners are complete idiot morons, i really don't understand.
