She tanked a company that was in a nose dive and about to hit rock bottom. Instead she put enough value into it for another company to see it as a worthwhile investment.
She is the only CEO of Yahoo that was able to seriously raise the stock price of the company. The company was on a long, slow decline for most of its existence. She pulled it out of its nose-dive long enough to make it worth buying. Not purchasing Google when they had the chance was their biggest mistake.
Defending the right to free speech means defending that right even for people you despise and disagree with in every way. Because it is the only way to guarantee your right to speak to oppose them. Also remember, that your right to free speech can't be used to take away theirs. You can't go to some else's speech and scream at them to drown them out and call it your right to free speech. That is what is happening lately. Instead of using their right to speak to promote their opposing view, they use it as a weapon to shut down those they disagree with. Instead of letting them speak, they protest or riot with the intent of preventing the speech. This is not the way free speech works.
X before something else is a pre-production test. Like XF-35, which will become the F-35. X alone is an aircraft to perform tests, like the X-15. The X-15 would still be called that even if we were still using it today.
I check my laptop in my baggage every time I fly overseas. I'm not interested in working on the flight. Never had a problem with it. You do have to properly pack it. I have a case specifically made to pack it into your luggage for protection. You can't just throw it on top and close the bag and expect it to survive.
Since the Earth is moving in solar orbit, so is the spacecraft launched from Earth. You have to lose quite a bit of energy to slow down enough to drop toward the Sun. There is a MinutePhysics video on the issue: https://www.youtube.com/watch?...
The US has vast areas to install wind power. The problem is power transmission. The best places are on the great plains, where no one lives. We would need to install long distance power lines to bring that power to the population centers. Yet, everyone along the way will fight against the power lines. Not in my backyard!

Yes, but they are scattered around in the leftover minefields. A bit of a high risk endeavor.
Good plan. I wish I had bought some gas cans before federal regulations ruined those, too.

They should rename the comet after the first observers, even if it was in radio waves.
I'm so glad he found more recent fame as Mayor Adam West on Family Guy. I'll miss his humor.

If only I spelled "is" correctly, otherwise I get roundly ridiculed.
I don't think anyone else if following it.

Did the find Tree of Life seeds, too?
By your command...
A group of time travelers missed the return trip, and had to live out their lives lost in the past in Morocco.
You still use Windows ME?
The planet is heated by SPARC processors.
I hear people are dying to learn COBOL.
Yes, but they used more than a truck and a knife.
"Meanwhile anyone with a truck and knife can cause terrorism." Yes, but they only kill 12 people, not 259 like on Pan Am flight 103.

Since this only applies to flights to foreign countries, it's hard to avoid travel by plane. Not many steamship lines still in existence.
Try to win a Darwin Award!
