Considering Bitcoin doesn't even fit the definition of a pyramid scheme, perhaps you should learn more about the subject before spouting off 100 times in every bitcoin article?
You should be just as glad that Islam didn't have them, as they almost conquered all of Europe before the crusades were called to free access to the holy land.
When the alternative is federal prison, yeah, that is my assertion.
Leaking Top Secret information gets you in federal prison. It doesn't matter if it makes you look good.
Petraeus is the exception to this rule, I am not sure how he avoided federal prison, but just look at history for the many examples of people going to federal prison despite having good intentions.
I'll lose a couple mod points to say this, but it is worth it.
The military/intelligence community works in a world of top secret information. They are NOT allowed to talk about their successes. This is also why the NSA didn't respond to much of the Snowden stuff, even to correct the massive mistakes they made, it is all still classified even if some of it was released.
The military and intelligence agencies not talking about the people they have stopped has nothing to do with a lack of people being stopped, you just won't hear about any of the successes for 50 years because they are all classified as the ways in which they were stopped are highly sensitive.
The new Tivo allows auto skipping of commercials on recorded programs. You hit the green D button and it just flashes to the end of the break, no fast forward at all.
To do that, you could get a Fitbit Charge HR for $130, and it lasts almost a whole week on a charge, and it even tells the time when you lift your arm.
Bespoke is an adjective for anything commissioned to a particular specification. It may be altered or tailored to the customs, tastes, or usage of an individual purchaser.[1]
Bespoke is a custom item. You can complain about the term if you like, but words have meanings, even if you don't agree with them.
So what you are saying is, because you don't agree with the politics of a group of people, anything they recommend should automatically be considered bad? Hmm, ok, so what do you like so I can avoid it?
Harry Potter is written to be read by kids the same age as Harry is in the book. If you have an issue with it, perhaps it is you, and not the books that is the issue.
I thought it was funny, re reading Harry Potter, I found that in the story his birth date is a month before mine, so perhaps I am unusual in that Harry Potter came out when I was the right age to read it.
If you are expecting sophisticated prose, you would be the silly one, as it is meant for kids in middle/high school, not adults.
Perhaps if you actually answered the question being asked, you might get better responses. I also would love to know what issues men aren't writing about that will change our opinion on the world. The sexist response to the question just shows that you are either blowing smoke, or don't have an actual answer to the question.
If you like Stevenson, his SeveneveS book was pretty good and was nominated for a Hugo recently. I hope it is made into a movie, as it would be a pretty spectacular visual story.
I'm surprised you didn't include any Ringworld books in the Niven list. Also, Stephenson might be good if you like that style, (Snow Crash, SeveneveS, Cryptonomicon), Gibson (everything...) would be another good author. Though it looks like you mostly like hard sci fi, and these two authors are more in the cyberpunk style. I would also add the other robot books to Asimov, though again, this is a taste thing.
Most of water on the Earth is salt water, salt + electronics = bad, salt + solar panels = bad (it will QUICKLY coat the panels and reduce their usefulness)
I don't see how this could possibly work on any ocean as it would need major maintenance on top of the solar panel costs.
Did you actually read what he said, or are you just spouting off?
He said that there is not one God, but the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. This is consistent with Catholic teachings. Where did he stray from the Catechism?
An Australian was living in the US for a little while, and his son was in my scout troop. He really liked his Dodge Ram, so looked into what it would take to bring it into Australia (right hand driving country). It would cost $40k for the conversion of the $35k truck to be able to import it to Australia. That is very sad, why can't the poor Australians drive American style trucks!

So in other words, you have nothing, just snide comments. It is good to see the level of discourse you are willing to engage in.

I hear ReiserFS is a killer file system.
Too soon?

It is a beautiful thing.

I would be curious if smartwatches includes Fitbits. I am pretty sure Fitbit outsold Apple.

Just FYI on how it is spelled, but you have a point.

My god, that thread...you totally trolled half of Slashdot with that one.
Poisonous debris like silicon? You know, the stuff sand is made of?

I like this line in the features section:
No batteries needed - just charge via USB
How does it fly without batteries?

It's not like most pictures of a kid in a swimsuit are CP, nor even nude pictures.
You would be surprised what is considered CP sometimes.

Is the picture dad just took of mom bathing their new infant for the first time in the kitchen sink CP?
FYI, that has been prosecuted as CP before.

As, in the Catholic Church, the Pope dictates the law, here are some of his quotes as the head of the church. Next?
