A Soscial Security Card is not comparable, because it contains
so little information. And yet, despite having printed on it
that it is not to be used for identification purposes it is used
as such all the time. You might not have been asked to show the
card but others have, or rather, since it's a readily
memorizable number you've been asked that and provided it to
people whom have no right to such information.
Switching from a simple cheap cardstock printed card, to a
whiz-bang digital card is even more inviting for consolidation
of power. Don't you think that soon enough some politician is
going to be looking to save a few dollars but cutting services
rather than tax loopholes or his own paycheck? And what will
his briliant idea be? Why, we already have this high tech card
that everyone has to have and is carrying around, why are we
issuing seperate "expensive" IDs to confer other privileges?
Even if you aren't worried about Big Brother, other people are. And even if it turns out Big Brother isn't a problem, the consolidation and linking for information makes it easier for others to abuse the system i.e; get ahold of information they
don't need/you don't want them to to have.
You still came across them, I had one in a radio teddy bear in the 80s. Of course, at the time I thought it was potentiometer and couldn't figure out why it worked in the radio but not for me.
No, it's everyone's job. It's humanities nature to lie, cheat and steal, murder, rape and mame... that does not mean it is only the government's job to curtail this.
Besides, you don't need necessarily/usually to read the entire manual when you have a problem (that's for a rainy day), rather you grep. So maybe the problem isn't just manners (one way or the other), but rather having the requisite skills and tools to get along and find/do things for oneself.
It'd be fine for the head librarian to give you a bit of a hard time--only a bit, she is paid for this--if you walked straight in the door, up to her desk and asked her where the Clifford the Big Red Dog books were. Because not only did you not check the card catalog, you passed by the kids' section to get to her *and* the special display case of shiny new red books.
Sarcasm aside, it's note even in TFA, it's in a link from a link. And this a case where there's no need to RTFA, I don't need to read random belly aching from some-twit-who-happens-to-have-a-name-similar-to-th e-guy-who-played-Sulu.
Since you actually asked reasonably; as opposed to the other pricks...
The brass rat is the nickname of the class ring. The MIT mascot is a beaver, and being an urban campus with quite a few bushes, MIT has its fair share of another rodent running around outside. Or, as _How to Get Around MIT_ puts it
Brass Rat - Ugly hunk of gold some MIT students and alums wear on a finger.
Batteries?? Rechargables with a solar recharger kit or a windup device. Ideally everything would run off of double-AAs, or you get a multi-voltage capable PV system. A windup radio or flashlight is probably good for all-weather use.
So you gain no edge, but you don't end up behind the game. Dolly is a bad analogy because you're creating a baby with this "40 year old" bladder. Furthermore, it's not cellular age (most cells are quite short-lived) but rather chromosomal age.

No, there are many exceptions, just not English.
Qatar for example, or coq au vin.
No, not when you've got parents who really do give kids seemingly
random
names.

It's a troll because this about the kernel not the platform ("GNU/Linux") you tool.
Bah, that's not an "ASCII generator"... it's FIGlet.

Hmm... drivel vs. answers to questions I have. Do you even have to ask?
Actually, LaBamaba says "In the year 2000"

There are no battles raging in Spain, Germany, etc. at this moment.
It's not quite that simple. Moisture increases the heat capacity of the
atmosphere, and reduces the amount of heat re-radiated to space.
All in all, it's a complicated system and inaccurate article titles do
nothing to help convey the nuances of the science.
Oh yeah, "ReUse is a service for exchanging free and for-sale items within the MIT community;" started back in 1994.
Read carefully.

When this popped up in my biff I only read the subject and thought
it was a printer or something
It's not that unknown; search for Canada, MTBE and NAFTA.
There are a couple other rather well-known cases but they elude me right now.
Acutally, until recently a big part of their job was to serve as paramedics.

It's not the pipe, it's the webservers; they've been experiencing growing pains for sometime.
Sure, but the difference between moving something to the the next town over
and the next ocean over is non-trivial unless you're in Panama.
