and laser-based propulsion systems don't have enough force to launch any appreciable payload (yet).
And they never will. Lasers will NEVER be able to push anything into orbit, period. E=MC2. If you make E big enough to push a payload into orbit, your E ends up turning into M. Lasers only a bit more powerful than what we have now will end up creating matter in their pumping chambers and halting their output. The top few lasers on the planet are pretty close to the maximum power lasers can attain before spontaneously creating mass from the light they make. What may work, however is using a laser to beam power to the "solar" cells at the bottom of a space elevator and using that power to inch up the elevator cable.
How, exactly, would it be against the law to ban someone from bolting an antenna to the outside of an apartment building? My apartment building does not allow antennae nor satellite dishes. It's cable or nothing. Sure you could put up some rabbit ears, but being downtown, the buildings add enough multi-path distortion and echoes that you'd never get a signal. I can't pick up a local radio station in my car that I know for a fact is being broadcast from less than 2 miles away anywhere near my apartment.
Narrower = less air resistance, less hydroplaning (and at extremely high speeds, less aeroplaning, which is why you see 600+ mph cars with skinny tires). It definitely doesn't lower rolling resistance.
Except Scotland and Wales and so forth, at one time, were actual sovereign countries. There was never a point where Florida existed as it's own country.
2.4GHz and 5GHz signals simply don't interact much with flesh. The signal strength is far too low to do anything other than nearly immeasurably heat the dead layer of skin in your epidermis. It's scientific fact that wifi and cellular signals have no measurable effect on human tissues. They don't put out "radiation" in the sense of an x-ray or gamma. It's non-ionizing radiation and anyone claiming it gives them a headache is just imagining things.
This is why I'm a 87 year old woman on most sites that ask for age/sex. All I ever see are ads for reverse mortgages and adult diapers, on the rare occasion I browse a page without adblock plus.
Seriously? I like linux and all, but you are just a fucking idiot if you think it can somehow overcome the limits of not being able to make components smaller than an atom (or two or three).
Cars are for getting from point A to point B. Some people like to use them for excitement. Some people use them as penis-extensions.
Personally, I don't have a micro-penis to compensate for, nor do I need to needlessly further endanger the lives of everyone around me by driving too fast, accelerating too fast, taking turns too fast, etc etc.
I use my car to get groceries and go places I can't walk or bike to (reasonably). That's it. A faster 0-60 would only use more gas and pollute the Earth more. You might have a micro-penis or not give a shit about what the world's like when your kids have kids, but not all people are that stupid and ignorant.
I strongly support this. My big one is graffiti. It's a POINTLESS and COMPLETELY AVOIDABLE crime. No one accidentally goes to the store, buys paint, walks over to some surface, presses the button and vandalizes property. Nor could anyone possibly ever think it wasn't against the law. As such, I think anyone caught spraying graffiti should face a minimum penalty of the removal of their hand. Period. Don't want to lose your hand, don't spray your stupid fucking names and symbols on the sides of buildings. Then put up some billboards with people holding up their bloody stump right after losing their hand in areas with high rates of graffiti. Watch how quickly people get the point.
Quite possibly, but at least I can take a cock in the ass while having reception on my phone! That's much better than taking a cock in the ass like iDiot iPhone users do while having no reception (unless they hold their phones with toaster tongs).
Yes, I have Google Voice, Picasa and a few other things all set up on my gmail account and everything else on my google for domains. I'd love a way to move voice and picasa to the google apps account.

Tea-bag party isn't "conservative", they are just lunatics.
Don't be discussing MY Australian like that! Or did you mean "you're"...I know, it's an easy mistake to make if you didn't make it past third grade.

It's not 2 hours. More like 82-84 minutes. 1 hour tv shows usually run 41-42 minutes each, after commercials are removed.
Everything on the light side of iron creates energy when fused and everything on the heavy side creates energy when split.
Unless we complete a space elevator and vastly improve ion propulsion, it will almost certainly be far cheaper to break water and fuse the hydrogen.
Perhaps, but then you spend several hours a week searching for Mac/Linux variants of Windows-only software that you want to use.

Or you could buy 3 3TB drives, put them in a raid 5 for your 6TB total and not lose 6TB when 1 drive fails...
Mirrors are far easier to deal with than lenses.
Tailgaters and weavers wouldn't exist if everyone was doing the speed limit...

Oil can be replaced with corn, etc. Minerals? There's a vast wealth of them buried in all of our landfills, prime for the taking if the need arises.

And if I do have pools of molten lead in my backyard? How else am I supposed to keep the neighbor kids out of my pool?

if it weighs 200kg (in space !)
Mass is NOT affected by gravity, AT ALL.
