these days a movie has a month or two to earn almost everything
THAT is my problem. I don't mind watching "bad movies" as long as they're good escapism. I really quite enjoyed The Lone Ranger and Oblivion, but didn't get the chance to see After Earth or the last Die Hard movie. They were gone too quickly.
Movies that are of similar ilk need to either not be bunched up so much (yes, I know release dates are tied to school holidays) or allowed to run for longer.
Violence that's legal and pays the bills, while still living at home... a perfect job for those individuals in society who have a propensity to violence.
A friend of mine is a computational chemist. He comes from a chemistry background, but has for some years now been writing software for simulating cell receptors to help find matching proteins for them. He's even part authored 3(?) books on KNIME which is written in Java. In his experience skilled programmers with maths knowledge are hard to find in the field because most come from a chemistry background rather than a computer science background.
I suffer from domestic blindness. That means that too much information just becomes a jumble. It's not something I get over, as it's the way my brain works. So one of the first things I do to a new Windows setup is to arrange the start menu into folders of 8-12 items, and nest those folders 2-4 folders deep. That way I can always find what I'm looking for. Sure, other people think it's more complicated, but for me that works.
If Win81 allows me to something of that ilk then good. If not, then for me (and I accept that I might be in a very small minority) a configurable start folder with nested sub folders simply works best.
Thank goodness I can fall back on ClassicShell. But don't be me wrong. When there are new options that work well, I do adopt them.
True ("only" about 2/3 is burned). But just because it's not burned does not necessarily mean that it's safe for the environment. Consider the mountains of plastic we create. So the system would still be appropriate, methinks.
The two weaknesses here are monitoring,..., and determining the cost.
How about monitoring and taxing fossil fuel extraction? If it is not possible to tax extraction then tax importation. This would make the job much simpler.
That cost would then filter through the economic system and would temporarily upset the current economic balance (which really is an imbalance if one takes into account the raping of the planet). But when economic balance has been restored, then the costs of items will more accurately reflect the true cost of those items.
Conversely, carbon that is bound (for example by crop and tree growers/farmers) could be considered forms of cleanup. Thereby possibly mitigating increased farming costs due to more expensive fuel. Also, there would be the incentive to start up carbon scrubbing businesses.
In our universe we may be biochemical machines, but... in the fictional Star Wars universe living beings are able to interact with the force whereas droids can't, because droids are not alive - something that characters in the Star Wars universe are either consciously or subconsciously aware of.
Thanks. I hadn't heard of the four boxes before. And it seems to me then that the aim (so to speak) of gun ownership is to avoid the sort of thing that's happening in Syria.
The current US government no longer operates with the will of the governed as expressed by the restrictions placed upon it, and therefor is no longer a legitimate government.
This is not intended as a troll, but as a serious question...
What are the pro-gun ownership people doing about it? Isn't that the main argument that people in the US use to reserve the right to own a wide variety of military weaponry?
Or have I misunderstood the gun control debate? (Note: I don't live in the US.)
Also, if someone is posting an article with temperatures, always include Celcius (or perhaps Kelvin). Farenheit means little to most of us who don't live in the US.
Sure, it only requires a quick conversion, but it's better that the writer does that once than to expect many readers to.
Perhaps. Though I'd much rather have alarmists that raise our awareness, than live in ignorance. At least with awareness we can do something about those wannabe Armageddons. Hopefully, people with the ability to think critically will be able to accurately work out which threats are more serious so we can solve those problems first.
True. And that why it's a pity that modern democratic systems encourage the current party in power to focus no further than winning the next election.:/
It can stay in the air for almost an hour?!? My ARDrone battery lasts for about 1/5 of that time. If possible, I'd happily pay a bit extra for a longer lasting battery for my flyer.

How to clean that up?
TROOPS (Star Wars COPS)
Gee... what does that say about the US as a business partner? ;)

That seems to be good match for you.
Small ears.
The definition of "a second" ago keeps changing. Please try to be more precise.
Back doors inside windows... I'm sure there's a joke there I'm missing...
Then good. That sounds adoptable, and probably looks and navigates nicer. :)

A categorisable list.

Mod up, please.

So instead of raining in data centres, it now snows in data centres.
violence towards users of Google Glasses
Aww... surely they wouldn't hit people wearing glasses, would they?
Better than zombie staff who are more likely chow in than skeleton staff.
