Social isolation and physical confinement played a part as well.
I don't believe any successful European settlement of North America began with a base as small as twenty. I expect alcohol would become a problem. I expect suicide would become a problem.
Alcohol won’t be a problem. Someone will open a Mars bar.
The UK has somewhat different customs in this area (and possibly different laws). I recall reading a comment a few months ago from someone in the UK talking about how many more cars get through a green light in the UK than the US because the UK drivers are all ready to start moving as soon as the light is green, rather than waiting for the car in front of them to move before taking their foot off the brake. It is perhaps unwise, but if that's the habit, it's more understandable.
No, it's because in the US the light sequence is Red -> Green, in the UK it's Red -> Red+Yellow -> Green so the drivers are reacting faster and skewing the stats.
In fact most are moving on the Red+Yellow part of the sequence.
I expect Snowden knows that and probably has a PPT slide on it.
There's no way he (or Wikileaks) would make that information public - because of his asylum request. Plus if he did Russia would put him on a plane to the US.
Two-faced traitor. Started of with an ethical stance, degraded into the last stand of a desperate man.
Out in the 'burbs of SOCAL I get 12MB from Cox. It's good enough for what I use it for, I don't stream live video. I do a lot of web presentations with not many problems.
What pisses me off is the general throttling for torrent and NZB/NNTP downloads. About 200k.
MythTV is a great concept but for a single point of getting HD material TiVo is the best, MythTV seems hard to configure (and I'm technical-ish). It's not for mainstream use.
TiVo just works. Expensive, yes, but I am happy I got what I paid for. I am on my third box now (since 2000).
People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but *actually* from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint - it's more like a big ball of wibbly wobbly... time-y wimey... stuff.

Never forget the importance of capitals.
I had to help my uncle Jack off a horse once.

I’m waiting for 11G.

They’ll have to change the shirts from blue to red.
If you live in a state with abbreviation KY, you deserve to get shafted.
However, anything that promotes the use of computer science and technology to students who are crap at languages (like I was) cannot be that bad.
If movie producers got a flat, monthly paycheque, there would be zero incentive to make *good* movies.
Or new ones.
TFA says:
a series of six images over a 60-hour period taken from a ground-based satellite
I wonder what a "ground-based satellite" satellite is. Do they meant a telescope?
It’s a geostationary object at an altitude of 0 km.
You know, like a brick.
A duck.
Is that a European or African duck?
Oops, wrong sketch...

Or Multics...
Either way, what the researcher did was IMO wholly appropriate.
Yes but he's probably going to jail for it.
Why would suicide be illegal? Where I live it isn't. How could be someone prohibited from suicide save livelong incarceration in a padded cell?
He's likely assisting. That's the illegal act.
You'd actually have thought that if it worked seals would have evolved stripes by now
I'm pretty sure Russia also has their own PRISM.

Last time I was there, there was no coastline at Moscow airport...
Can't move adulthood to 21, we'd lose half of the cannon fodder for the armed forces.
It's as good as tracking indivuiduals as an IP address is.
Not that that stops the RIAA.

Where is there an 85? Sweet.
I would think getting it into an initial boot state would be a challenge, since we don't know what this would be in a real brain... ?
You can use astronaut poo for shielding.
And on a nuclear ship I'm sure there'd be plenty.
Would it be unbelievable that our Israeli friends in Mossad sabotaged the car to get a look at the tech?
