This is the same accounting magic that happened with the budget bill earlier this year. We were all told that there was something like $60 billion in budget cuts when most of it was unused funds.
We're not in South Korea just to deter North Korea. Lots of foreign US bases are there as regional threat deterrents. Something happens anywhere near South Korea and we've got 10s of thousands of US soldiers and infrastructure to respond or at least threaten to respond.
Have you every asked "why"? It's not just because those dirty looking miners are boogey men. Usually has something to do with the techniques employed and the effects on the human population (like the use of arsenic in gold mining). Yes, we have practical needs, but don't outright dismiss the concerns of "environmentalists" unless you understand the issue.
I'm not a geologist, but I live in KC. That aquifer has been a scare for a while now, but the water supply seems to have stabilized lately. I've talked to a few friends with family way back West and they're parents don't seem to be concerned about the same armageddon of diminished water supply they were 10 years ago. For a while there, people were discussing migrating to a whole new economy in the West (like buffalo safaris and wild game hunting preserves).
I can't tell if they have some ingenious strategy in the works that's about to unfold like a Hitchcock finale, or if they're simply run by a bunch of classically ignorant, arrogant Wall Street shysters who figured they could chest thump and nut grab their way through this scenario. I figured they screwed the pooch with the Android/Java OS issue, so I'm leaning towards the latter.
By that logic, there shouldn't be a market for anything in print, artwork, music, movies, or anything else that can be digitally replicated. You're using the cover story of someone who downloads music for free, then rationalizes that somehow word of mouth will convince your friends to pay for what you just downloaded for free.

You don't know what Planned Parenthood does. You *think* you know because of the rants you've been listening to for the past 6 months. Planned Parenthood is the only access to contraception and OB/GYN services that a lot of women have; *especially* in rural parts of the country. Only about 2-3% of their budget has anything to do with abortion and that has to be funded outside of Federal funding.
Keep this in mind when the rates of unplanned pregnancies, STDs, and diseases skyrocket in your community and the local ERs now have to deal with these women coming in to get their "free healthcare" and more single mothers show up on the social services rolls.
Hollywood is a bottom-line industry. When they see "Harrison" they think of all the money his movies have generated. If they have to wheel him out on stage they'll do it.
Same thing with a lot of other aging actors. Sylvester Stallone is still squeezing blood from that stone and they're talking about a Die Hard 5!!! I really just don't get why Hollywood doesn't trust the new generation of leading men to carry films. Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe, et. al. are proven assets.
No, people like us will buy them for our home networks. Low-end and low-income users will happily use them. Old machines have *a lot* of life, maybe not on the front lines anymore.
But, you can make projections from limited data. Disclaimer, all I looked at was the chart and I think you can assume linear failure rates for SSDs and exponential for HDDs (probably because of more components and different failure points). The chart is pretty clear if I'm interpreting it correctly.
Just like sampling a population in statistics, you're working with limited data but you can hypothesize based on a small sample. What you can't tell is if there's some failure bomb (unlikely) outside the data range.

27 students in the final today; 4 women. Let me add that I also took a stats class with about the same number of students and probably slightly more women.
Amen, this is the problem with defining the bounds of sexism and sexual harassment. The goal posts move depending on how interested in you the woman is.

That's cause the Tea Partiers are using the same scorched earth policy with the budget as they did with the debt ceiling.

Right, teabaggers? Of course, this is the same S&P that told us that all those bullshit mortgage-backed securities were legit.
Just to let those Jovian bitches know we're coming to take over!
How are they going to get at this water if it's even possible? Drill down? Burrow down? Sample soil from outside these spurts?

OK, so where'd you steal the baby from?
It would've been much funnier if you posted this AC. Now, I have to assume that you're serious.

Yeah, but the millions you'd spend on a hashing algorithm that could handle thousands of Thomas Drakes would negate the savings.

Fixed that for you
My problem is that whenever people say they're just in it for a mindless romp and they liked it, I listen and end up watching Transformers.
Am I the only one who really liked that movie?
