I rate our existential risks, in descending order:
1. Space alien invasion 2. Zombies 3. Giant monsters summoned by radioactivity 4. Unusually intelligent apes 5. Artificial Intelligence run wild 6. Dinosaurs recreated from DNA in mosquitoes
People without kids pay property tax to fund schools because there's a public good. Why on earth would we want in this case to create a complex and intrusive system to tax precisely according to usage when in others we grossly abstract taxation away from usage?
Investors and directors think the assets are more valuable combined than separated. Of course they think that, or else they would just sell the assets.

Reckless endangerment is a crime consisting of acts that create a substantial risk of serious physical injury to another person. The accused person isn't required to intend the resulting or potential harm, but must have acted in a way that showed a disregard for the foreseeable consequences of the actions. The charge may occur in various contexts, such as, among others, domestic cases, car accidents, construction site accidents, testing sites, domestic/child abuse situations, and hospital abuse. State laws and penalties vary, so local laws should be consulted.
How do you explain why the service providers insisted on government granting them artificial monopolies enforced by law if the barrier to entry would naturally create a monopoly for the first mover?

Without even reading the article, I can guess what they did from my own experience: use a hole punch and flip the battery over.

Tax fuel. Tax electricity. Those work.

I find it's the millennials that are getting more stressful.
Since modern Star Wars cinema looks like a video game, this isn't much a stretch.
Were you looking at the job site on a personal or work computer?
Right, if you're going to put a beef tripe on Facebook, put a pork tripe on LinkedIn.
I think the real question is how often do we have scenes with two robots in them, talking about something other than humans.
No, not really.
Have they tried pumping large amounts of oil into the ground to push the water out?
I can see fathers objecting to their daughter's suitors on the grounds that they are GMOs. They'll start to demand labeling.
Until a few months ago, I carried a Blackberry for work a physical keyboard. The keyboard was nice and I miss it.

Scientifically, I agree the clone should qualify.
But how is this an issue for the courts? Why should there be a legal definition of a certified quarter horse?
I just think if a dorky organization wants to certify horses that exclude clones, they should be able to until such time as it comes becomes bankrupt.
As opposed to C? WTF?
Typo. Top 5% is 188k according to your link.
It really seems like one game to me. It's already lasted longer than I expected.
True, but the guy who is seeking attention this way probably needs some attention.
GOUSes? I don't think they exist.
We have this same stupid story recycled every week.
There are thousands of years of substantiation. And the alternative is that no one will want anything. I don't agree with doom & gloom on this point.
No ragrets
I don't think it's attempted murder. More like reckless endangerment.
