Sure, but quickly losing several thousand feet of pressure is not exactly a fun experience. They generally only pressurize to something like FL100, where cruise may typically be FL180 or so. In some cases even as high as FL280.
Commercial airliners maintain cabin pressure to that at 6500' ASL. Exact.

And considering that even Indians politicians are poor compared to their US counterparts, while being almost equally corrupt, media companies find it much easier and cheaper to bribe them to get the kind of laws they want. Bollywood media companies couldn't care less about internet piracy, since internet speed being what it is in India, it takes days to download movies and people find it cheaper to go watch a movie for just 1USD equivalent. The media companies in question here, are again the US ones.
Slight change in the information you have.
10 Mbps is now available for 20 USD/m in many parts of India; no contracts. Most connected users around the country have atleast 2 Mbps for less than 5-6 USD/m. Thats fast enough to download your movies in a few hours. Watching a movie in the theaters still costs 6-10 USD per person per movie.
Sure, they are.
But a Boeing aircraft gives a pilot lot more control of the aircraft than Airbus does.
Thats both good and bad depending who you trust, a human or a computer.
Same here.
I'd been to Afghanistan before I traveled to Israel (entry Tel Aviv). Surely, I was pulled aside and questioned about my travel history, respectfully. And yes the interviewer did have common sense!
While departing too I was screened upto my toes but it was done professionally by skilled security agents. While I haven't been to the US yet, reading this much about TSA online seems to be crossing the line I'd draw for disgusting.
They should certainly learn a thing or two from Israel.
Being a journalist, he knew what was going to happen to him if he did post that message on the Internet, of all other possible places. He should have kept that comment to himself while disowning his religion. Perfectly acceptable to the general public, Saudi government and I suppose himself (as opposed to the current situation).
I'm all for freedom of speech until one tries to insult someone else. People always talk about tolerance in context with freedom of speech, especially citing the middle-eastern governments. Whatever happened to respect though.
If this technology works, why bother with a 1 megawatt plant? Why wouldn't you build the equivalent of Bloom boxes and sell them to homeowners? Get rid of the grid entirely.
Thats being over ambitious.
Your government definitely wants to keep a tab on you.
My bank emails me transaction history in PDF once every month, quarter and year. I could enable every week too, but that seems unnecessary.
Seems easy enough to do simple calculations or to generate reports as each statement has a summary.
I'm in India though:P All the best finding a bank in the US who would offer you this.
If you cant do it right. Don't do it.
No point in sending Americans over to another country only to murder civilians.
I understand that accidents do happen from time to time in war. For example, the deal Afghan who was shot. But what is seen on Collateral murder is simply murder by the US military.
If in deed it does look to you like an accident, atleast publish your report stating that it was a misunderstood situation. Perhaps an apology. Not blatantly lie about the fact that insurgents were present and US troops were attacked. Thats a whole load of bullshit.
When the 2nd car arrived at the spot to pick up the bodies, were they throwing grenades? Did they have any weapons?
Here is my favorite example, (there are many others)
He told others not to use 'western medicine' Many people died(Including his wife) because of that. When he was ill? he was all about using western medicine.
Yes, that chap was an asshole, and a religious extremist.
But hey, if he didn't lead if Indian Independence, India wouldn't have all the poverty and disease, so he's got that going for him.
If he didn't lead the Indian independence movement, the way he did... India would have been like Afghanistan.
Afghanistan was in a state of commotion.
India too had its problems.
The Soviet Union stepped in and took over.
The British empire stepped in and took over.
Mujaheddin overthrew the Soviet Union using violent means.
Ghandi's peaceful movement overthrew the British rule.
Afghanistan is still in a state of war, even after 20 years.
India has been enjoying a peaceful freedom for the past 60 years.
Calling the Mahatma an asshole just shows how big a hole you've got. He was called Mahatma by the British, that counts for something. Don't make insightful comments, rather just read and move on.

... and Khomeini knows it ...
Its Khamenei, not Khomeini. The Supreme Leader of Iran.

Lmao. He took your command's hash-tag to be a Twitter post. Talk about n00bs, they beat you to death with laughter!
10 bucks says he still didn't get it. :P

I like such news. Big break through!

Iran isn't a communist state. LOL. They have trade embargo with most of the countries in this world because of their nuclear reactor issue.
Gandi was an asshole.
