So fugu (potentially lethal blowfish) sushi is insanely popular and expensive.... how long until we see Fukushima flounder sushi? The actual amount of cesium in two tiny pieces of fish can't be *that* harmful, can they?
I don't drive, so I don't buy gas, so really, I don't care much, but it's this attitude that everything has to be big to be effective that is annoying.
$20 gas is still going to hurt you, as the price of transporting everything will cost that much more. The price of everything will skyrocket.
I suppose she was meant to contrast with Sisko, who was willing to break pretty much any rule for the benefit of his crew or society in general. In one episode he collaborates with Garak, who eventually assassinates a member of the Romulan high council to bring them into the war. In the end of the episode he concludes that he'd do it again.
All my NOC knows how to do is open tickets, escalate them to engineering, wake me up in the middle of the night for false alerts, and generally annoy customers.
Plus this cetacean NOC works for fish! Where can I sign up to get him on board?

Its if they don't work. Suppose the problem is asymptomatic but dangerous. If he wastes time with ineffective drugs until the problem becomes worse and not curable, then the placebo has harmed him.
Look at what the media did to Ross Perot and Ron Paul. Ridicule them it did. The media also loved Obama in 2007. Loved him, it did. They media can do whatever it wants to.
It is completely ridiculous to think that life on Mars would use "DNA" and even "cells." Both are just coincidences of life on earth. There are an infinity of different ways to encode genetic information and assemble living organisms. Did these people also write the scene in Independence Day where Jeff Goldblum takes over the alien computer with his Mac?
It is completely ineffective in Europe. Those anti-theft applications sometimes work though, taking pics of the criminals. Most of the time the police cannot help though, because the law in Denmark at least does not allow the police to search an entire apartment block. GPS is not accurate enough to show which apartment the phone is in.
He cannot pull it off. It is simply not possible to create an exploit-proof OS. He's simply trying to get publicity by making outrageous and fantastic claims.
Trained dogs looking for drugs or explosives do interact with their trainers (for better or for worse), so the comparison should be to dog+trainer teams, and not just the dogs themselves. The trainers can reduce the search space through gentle, experience-driven heuristics.
Experience-driven heuristics are also known as profiles?
They complain about the expense of training dogs. Yes, they require a lot of training and that takes a lot of time an money, but how many dogs could you train for the cost of these devices? Each FIDO device costs $21k. It costs $10k-$15k to train a bomb sniffing dog, and once you pay for their education dogs are willing to work for room and board. If more resources were put into training methods then the per-dog cost to train could probably be brought down quite a big too. Dogs are also a lot cuter, and the FIDO device doesn't like to cuddle, or so I've heard. I say forget all the fancy super expensive scanners, just go back to old-fashioned metal detectors for people and x-ray scanners for carry-ons, and get a lot of dogs.
How about robotic dog trainers? Automate the process and drive costs down.
The international airport around here uses pigs. May have something to do with the fact that they mostly just ship freight and that pigs are cheaper in the midwest.
They don't like being called that you insensitive clod.
All money is "bad" money, so scraping a little off each coin won't get you much more than metal splinters.
I've daydreamed that if I ever win the lottery I'll take around $2,000 worth of pennies and put them in a big box on the corner in city and see how long it takes for all the pennies to disappear.
That's because there is a curse on your money. For a small fee it can be removed.
Inflation is the loss of value of currency, what you propose is an interesting hypothetical where the physical currency retains value but the electronic form experiences inflation and is unlinked from the physical money. I don't think there has been precedent for such an arrangement (the closest I can think of have to do with unbacked currency becoming valuable due to rarity), but it would lead to the guy with a money-mattress becoming richer than bankowners.
A raw material or primary agricultural product that can be bought and sold, such as copper or coffee.
A useful or valuable thing, such as water or time.

How much cesium does it take to clean your clock?
the filet in their freezer.
Which was where the fish relocated.
'They' are always right.
And would someone who is always right lie?

It's great for power hungry CEOs as well...
Jail cells are not walled gardens. The resemblance is superficial at best.

Sisko networks then?

Yoda is that you?
That's because there's no such thing.
I'd explain why but I'm busy disproving a cosine.
At least not off on a tangent.
They are smart, not sentient...

Mac viruses are dangerous.
Yeah, Windows 8. There's no "Start" button!
Also there is no "Stop" button.

Will the newer location services help?
How do you even know this pharmacy is "legitimate"? Do you even know they are not just shipping you placebos?
The pharmacopeia is a recipe book for answering just that question IIRC. In other words your drugist can tell.
There is an OxBridge processor. (Or is it DarBridge?)

You forgot lucrative.
and sniff each others asses, so they have an inherent advantage. or maybe that's a disadvantage becasue TSA,
That calibrates their nose.

And it doesn't work.
Challenged, he pulls the trigger.
Fireballs race together and toward the planet.
The planet explodes.
Well I guess I showed you.

Thereafter he would be known as Battman.
