It doesn't pump seawater directly through its cooling systems. Instead, the seawater goes to a heat exchanger where it's used to cool fresh water. It has to clean the exchanger fairly regularly, but Coors said it's a simple maintenance job.
The kind of job any bartender will be soon very happy to do for the dole.
But it had to run the chillers only a few hours last year, Coors said, when the government ordered its partner to stop pumping seawater. Coors isn't certain why that was, but he believes it's for environmental reasons. "I think it's to protect the jellyfish," he said.
In Norway:
1. the govt has a partner
2. the jelly fish have govt protection only a few hours each year.

Sounds like something invented by the same folks who did the Zune.
If one looks at the price tag, one would be tempted to compare the folks with the other (usually white, with its rounded corners protected by a patent) brand. I'd bet the market-segments for both of the products would show a higher overlap too.

"They like to post videos; they like to be in constant communication with groups or networks," Schauble says. "This kind of technology, in addition to making shooting more fun for them, also allows shooting to be something that they share with others." ... Rifle maker Remington Arms wants to use the technology in rifles it wants to sell for around $5,000.
Answer: this is the "iPad of guns" - owning and using one set's the owner a head over the others (with the "Android" version to be sourced from Remington).
Apropos "head over the others" - I imagine it won't be so funny if the term "share to shooting" would be used under some other meanings/contexts. You know... the ongoing success of the sharing may highly depend which end of the gun is used in sharing.
Government is the largest adopter of open source, ahead of any particular industry (slide 11)
My guess: it's likely that asmkm22 (the OP) works in the industry.
Another guess: the TCO claimed by the Get-the-facts-like campaigns is overrated for the govt context.
Go away! Maybe for so the less educated in the matter, but you won't trick me into believing that "organically grown free range 100% fat free light-elements-inner-shells electrons" aren't much better and healthier than the rest.
And lets not get started about Outlook. I have been trying to take a coworker out of it.
Yeah... happened to me once. By the time I managed to do it, he was fully chomped, limp as a boned fish and half-digested... all in all, an ugly experience, I tell yer.
AC power is a scam. First the electricity runs one way, then it stops and it runs the other way. They're selling you the same electrons over and over and over again.
One's not better even with DC power: no warranties that a closed circuit won't recirculate the same electrons over a certain period of time. Even worse, once you power on the device, they are taking the electrons which are stored by your device and just replace them with foreign ones in the same amount - how can you be sure the others have the same quality? Furthermore, the electrons that are stolen from you are used to carry the same heinous substitution on other unsuspecting customers.
Believe me, AC is much better - after powering off, you still do have the original electrons that the manufacturer of your device put in. No-no-no-no... don't underestimate the importance of this fact!!!... For example: never-ever use the Monster Cables with DC current: they'll quickly lose their quality if you do it... and this for no other reason than you replace the original carefully nurtured and handpicked electrons... (shudders) God forbid: maybe even with ones "Made in China".
You mean, exclusive contracts can screw you over? WHO KNEW? See also: Every antitrust investigation. Ever.
Which you are you talking about? You as in the "consumer of cloud or hosting or co-location services" or you as in "the tenant that has exclusive use of the facilities for its data-center services business"?
Because if it's:
* "consumer of the cloud services, etc" you (maybe) are getting screwed over the price of power, but nobody locks you in exclusive contracts;
* "the tenant conducting data-center business" - maybe the contract you sign is exclusive, but it is not you that is getting screwed.
And this is why using the cloud is good... for the business: you are going to be charged double for the price of consumed electricity and the data center operator has a secondary line of business as a power broker.
(granted, the energy cost for the user may be lower in the cloud than running whatever on your own server, in case your server does nothing most of the time. Meh... in my case, I still find preferable to use solar panels)
Of course it is about revenue. Governments need revenue to operate. A tax on speeders seems like a good way to do it.
What exactly does operate means? Is it by chance "spend a imperial fuckton of money on drones to catch a few drivers that will quickly learn to adapt?" followed by "raise taxes to pay back the wasted fuckton"?
However, if said guy goes around and bitches about other people liking things he dislikes and insisting that they shouldn't like something for his own stupid reasons, that is a different story.
Well... tell these to those/.-ers who bitch about Obamacare. Or about the size of US government, taxes, arms-control (or the lack thereof).
Or tell it to AC posters that whinge about bronies being in existence and receiving charity status from IRS, will you?

This is America. We compete.
This is why you risk your neck against anyone that collaborate. On historically near term, most probably against BRICS.
My wrong, should have said "In Sweden:"

Why? If I can do cheaper with a second-hand Android, I'll have more money to spend on whatever else.
This article doesn't say it but they throw in an iPad with their app when you buy one of their guns.
Ummm.... comprehension?
Sounds like something invented by the same folks who did the Zune.

And
A $500 iPad is an affordable freebie when you are selling a $17,000 weapon.
while TFA states $22k
With price tags of up to $22,000, they're not cheap.
Chief Privacy Officer at Zero-Knowledge Systems...
Uh??? Somehow, it makes better sense than "director of advertising privacy"
How does it detect the wind at 100, 200, 300, and 400 yards? How does it detect the change in wind speed over that full distance? It is impossible.
While, in this implementation the wind speed is not automatically detected, it is not impossible to do it... and neither new (at least as old as 1977).
A gun with an internet-connected onboard computer. Malware for it could be deadly.
Don't you know Linux is secure by default?

Yes, but powered by Linux.
No, I'm not joking, its the same company.

If this is the iPad of guns...then I am dying to see what HP comes up with! Perhaps it'll shoot cake mix and spite instead of bullets?
I don't know. But take my advice: just don't hold your breath... you'd be dying for the wrong reasons.

Malware doesn't kill people... people kill people.

you're still human... A very complex and wonderful piece of engineering...

how can you be sure the others have the same quality?
This is how you know that.

And if a name and a gesture are all it takes to have serious issues, then maybe the whole world's a bit nuts.
Irrespective of name/gesture/etc, the whole world is nuts... and more than a bit. I guess this it what makes it interesting.
