And the point is well taken. But it's worth noting that many of the comments are not saying that he owes us, just that "I'm not buying this until he finishes the series," which is perfectly valid. Because I'm not his bitch either.
The Japanese vehicle is the HTV, for H-II Transfer Vehicle (H-II being the rocket). You forgot to mention that Dragon will be being used for cargo starting this year (probably), as well as Orbital Science's Cygnus (which will probably be pushed to 1H 2012). The US isn't completely out of this yet!
It's also worth noting that you can see all of the currently operational vehicles in the video, if you know what you're looking for, and that this is the only time that will ever be true. Once again kudos to Thierry.
Oh, agreed, but Kepler is pumping these things out so fast that even I can't keep up. It's getting hard to decide what the "important" announcements are, especially outside of very targeted news sources.
I'd really like to know how that works, but even if you're right it still doesn't pertain. I use my rewards to pay my credit card bill; I won't claim that Cap One isn't still making money off the exchange fees, but the rewards money comes right out of their pocket.
Banking, and ditto. But most people have Firefox installed to get to the internet, since the WSJ site doesn't work in IE6.

The accuracy issue is exactly why this is currently relevant, because we finally have an upper bound for the amount of resources required to fill in those gaps. Watson was programmed to deal with - not just inaccurate - but deliberately misleading statements. It could easily recognize that 'startdottxt' is wrong and check to see if 'start.txt' and other plausible variations exist before asking what you meant. Even then it would know how much confidence it had in what it thought you meant, so it probably wouldn't ask unless a human would. Once we can get that on a home computer, it'd be almost foolish not to use it sometimes: it'd be nice to have someone always by the stereo you could shout to to have them turn it up.
Sorry, no. Just like I'm not one of Google's clients, I'm their product. The client is always the one who pays the bills. For a public school the client is the taxpayers, for a private school it's the parents. Children are their raw material, and their product is (supposed to be) educated citizens.
I won't claim to agree with the message, but in that light "conform with authority, or be penalized" makes a lot more sense.
No, I think that's covered under 'Facebook's cooperating'. Not that I think that it would take a lot to convince them to give up, that's basically their business model, but 'do this or we won't let you accept payments in our country' is basically all the rubber hose you need.
3: Is there any other evidence in existence that I do not have control over, which could lead to my being convicted of both the original crime AND obstruction.
I'd go with AMD for any (non server) box you're not planning to put a graphics card in. In that case, you obviously don't need high end performance, but you'll get better graphics performance out of an AMD chipset.
And yet the PATRIOT act is up for extension today. They don't actually have to BE the opposite of Bush, just convince people that they're different. That's pretty bad.
Someone can correct me, but it is my impression that the mosquitos aren't feeding on just humans, but anything warm blooded. So without vaccinating everything in the area, even that wouldn't work, except that conceivably over enough generations you could end up selecting toward individuals that avoid humans.
As someone else points out, though, it is trivial to create a new hash for a password on the next successful login. To the extent that this should be an issue at all, it should only be affecting people who haven't logged in in the past several years, not all those who haven't changed their password.

Or a multi-monitor gamer playing the same game multiple times. I once heard of a guy doing 15-man raids by himself.
The nice thing is, you can still accurately quote them as saying "Friends don’t let friends use Internet Explorer".

To be fair, it's probably differently fascinating than we hope.
Note to self: just never reply to a grammar thread. No matter how many times you reread it, you won't see the problem till after you post.
Nope, sorry. The rule to remember is "Possessive pronouns do not have apostrophes." So: mine, yours, his, hers, its, ours, theirs

I get the idea of how it works, but the article is so light on detail as to be useless. How is this different from typical photovoltaics?

Presumably the patent is for the ability to do so consistently across versions.
I'm kind of curious to hear about the other armageddons you've experienced?

I would happily live in a world where every company put engineers in charge of marketing. Just imagine the explosions!

I like to cut out the middleman and have a cheese GNUburger.

Better yet, the FCC should be running the test.
