I just installed the latest Bittorrent yesterday. It installed spyware without asking me, which my Trend Micro virus scanner immediately alerted on. I would not recommend installing Bittorrent to anyone.
As opposed to buses/cars driven by humans? Whenever there is an accident, everyone lawyers up. The nice thing about the automated system is that there are recordings of everything; they will clearly show that the bus was cut off and had no choice but to rear end the car that cut it off.
The federal archives are the ones who store these records, even classified ones. They are also the ones who release records when the classification is no longer valid, for instance the records of the Roswell crash that were recently released.
I have no idea however what the penalty is for breaking 44 U.S.C. Chapter 31. My opinion would be a ban from elected service, but that is me.
Space launches tend to go east in order to pick up the Earth's spin to reduce the speed needed by that amount. Therefore, when launching from Canaveral (or that newfangled launch pad in Virginia Beach), a sea landing is the only logical choice.
The article then goes on to describe it as being a much older word used to refer to a certain group of people:
Ste. Claire pointed me to King John, published sometime in the 1590s. One character refers to another as a craker — a common insult for an obnoxious bloviator.
What craker is this same that deafs our ears with this abundance of superfluous breath?
"It's a beautiful quote, but it was a character trait that was used to describe a group of Celtic immigrants — Scots-Irish people who came to the Americas who were running from political circumstances in the old world," Ste. Claire said. Those Scots-Irish folks started settling the Carolinas, and later moved deeper South and into Florida and Georgia.
Which these people then went on to call themselves crackers
"In official documents, the governor of Florida said, 'We don't know what to do with these crackers — we tell them to settle this area and they don't; we tell them not to settle this area and they do," Ste. Claire said. "They lived off the land. They were rogues."
By the early 1800s, those immigrants to the South started to refer to themselves that way as a badge of honor and a term of endearment. (I'm pretty sure this process of reappropriating a disparaging term sounds familiar to a lot of y'all.)
You can try to claim that it was a terrible term, but it is a term a people use to refer to themselves (to this day), and they don't believe that it is a racist term they are calling themselves.
Because many people don't understand how fashion accessory because a requirement of a smart phone.
The iPhone when it came out was far less useful than any of the windows phones, but it took off because it cost more, and did less, while being pretty.
Wow, reusing the descent interface in a computer or phone would be interesting. That game was fun to play multiplayer, but I just don't see a gaming interface being terribly useful on a phone or computer.
Bring them up on federal charges, bring them all up on charges.
Why does this have to be a partisan issue? They broke federal laws, and should go to federal prison. Ever single one of them should go to prison to stop this carelessness of the law that has started in politicians. Politicians should hold themselves up to more scrutiny than the average person, not less and less.
That article supports what I said. Or did you just read the part about Shakespearean times and totally miss the part where a portion of the population of the US called themselves crackers? You could even point to the part of that article where Jimmy Carter was called out as being of cracker origin, and it was said that if he knew, he would have called himself a cracker.
I took the book as satire of the military, maybe I read something into the book that wasn't there. I did however see the movie before reading the book, so it is possible that colored my views.
There were sequels to starship troopers as well, and they had a totally different tone.
The study apparently used whites from Italy, I am not sure if the incidence of single parenthood works out the same there, but the number of black people overall is much lower there.
Yup, my direct boss is of the African subspecies. I have no issues working with her (a woman in tech!). I am also reasonably sure that as she was the one who selected how much I make when I was hired that she is not making less than I am.
It always makes me wonder when people talk about these horrible racists if they can point to actual examples of racism, or just things they perceive must have been racism.
The federal records management laws have been in place for much longer than Obama has been in office. Just because he updated them somewhat, just a bit, doesn't mean they didn't exist before then.
But you are welcome to try to ignore all the laws on the books about how very illegal what Hillary did is.
For the inevitable, "but Palin did it!", Palin has not held federal office, therefore she did not fall under the federal records management laws. As I am unfamiliar with the Alaska laws that the Governor falls under, I cannot comment on if Palin broke the law.
The problem with your statement is that it is quite silly. Why would you run a large percentage of your power off of any source? You should be using a mix of many sources to balance each other out. Nuclear is good, hydro is good, solar is good, geothermal is good, tidal etc. Saying that because no one runs 1/3 of their power from wind, therefore it is bad is missing the big picture. Wind is one of many different power sources, and of course shouldn't be used as the sole power source.
Nuclear is a great power source, but it shouldn't be used as the sole power source, it scales too slowly and during maintenance, a large portion of your power is offline. Therefore no one should ever use nuclear as it can't provide 100% of the power!
Laptops typically use power supplies that are not grounded, so they don't require a three-prong outlet. This usually ends up with the stray capacatance [SIC] to BOTH sides of the line wiring capacitively [SIC] coupling equally to the laptop "ground". That means the "ground" of the laptop is at half the line voltage - about 60 volts of AC (a rotten approximation of a sine wave plus lots of other junk it picked up at an assortment of frequencies).
Last I checked, laptops don't run on AC power, and they of course have a ground as that is the negative side of DC. In house electric, you actually have two grounds. The round connection (in the US) is your house ground, it is generally connected to a pole hammered into the ground beside your electric meter. The Neutral (usually the black wire) is also a ground, it is grounded near the step down transformers in your neighborhood.
There are noise problems with laptop mics, but they are more from the space constraints than dirty power. Laptop Mics also have issues as they are not physically isolated from the laptop, so it will pick up everything (keyboard clicks, speakers in the laptop, whatever) and the screen even acts as a huge resonator which causes even more noise in the laptop mic.
There are half a dozen at least, pretty good quality for sat photos. There are also actual photos of tanks and artillery. Oh, and there were photos of the Muk launcher moving out of the Ukraine and into Russia after the plane was shot down.

Yes. It is Titanium Dioxide which is what makes white paint white.
I am assuming that the secret sauce here is the perfluorooctyltriethoxysilane. Whatever the hell that is...

If you look up the line of this very thread, you will find me linking to the federal records retention laws.

You are funny. I believe it is Space X that poured money into actually doing it and Blue Origin just spent money filing a patent.

The same fate would be rather hard to accomplish as Windows Phone has been around far longer than the iPhone.

I have never been very good at that grammar crap, but thank you. :)

You should look up the history of the term cracker before assuming that it is a disparaging remark.
The study didn't go into how black people respond due to no black people being in the study as another poster above linked to the study and said.
Us white devils should all feel bad because of our white privilege and stuff...
So, broken backup system/email system crash is now equivalent to intentionally breaking records management laws?
Yeah, um, no.
The federal records management laws have been in place for much longer than Obama has been in office. Just because he updated them somewhat, just a bit, doesn't mean they didn't exist before then.

Do you see how silly you sound?
The mining of the uranium (nuclear fuel) causes a lot of deadly pollution too: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U... [wikipedia.org] .
That is why reprocessing is the answer.
but the 'white' race is safe for this pollution as usual.
Funny, cause I thought Australia looked pretty white, maybe I am wrong.
