The hijacking is considered, have a good read of the second link in the article:
The Netherlands Vehicle Authority evaluates test applications in three stages:
written evaluation, roughly comprising an overview of changes to the vehicle, and the impact these have on safety, and counter measures;
functionality testing (at a closed facility), of aspects the applicant seeks to test on public roads: the ‘happy flow test’;
a stress test at a closed facility. This tests system robustness, both in technical and functional terms.
If this phase is completed successfully, consideration will be given – in consultation with the road manager(s) – as to suitable locations to be opened up and under what circumstances. This may involve recommendations from knowledge institutes like the Road Safety Research Institute (SWOV) or cyber security experts. The exemption lists all relevant circumstances together with the licensed drivers, the duration of the exemption and the vehicles.
Cars in Cairo have more gears than in other places, four on the floor (stick shift in the USofA) and ten more in the center of the steering wheel, in other countries they call it a horn.
Compare and contrast, for example, the lorries and "heavy trucks" used in the UK and Japan vs. the monstrous beasts on our roads here in the US.
Oh? Over here in Europe(*) a regular heavy truck is depending on the number of axles up to 40 metric tons and in The Netherlands 50 tons, heavier special (not regular) transport needs an easy to get licence.
Road trains go up to 60 tons, in Sweden 80 tons.
Th basis of the legislation is between 10 and 11.5 tons per axle.
(*) Exceptions are the UK and Switzerland with a max. of 38 metric tons.
In the US the maximum weight without additional permit is 80,000 lbs or 36.28 metric tons.
The answer is in the question.
I would go one step further, the Chinese are supplying 'approved' VPN IP's for their government people, IP's that are probably green listed in the firewall.
Such is only possible because an ever smaller section of people had basic education including solid scientific fundamentals or STEM.
Especially those working in mainstream media and at all levels of politics show a near wilful ignorance of science and technology.
Indeed, that's why the calculation of paying subscribers per tower.
But I can tell you in Sweden they'll have the more densely populated areas subsidise the sparsely populated areas, very similar to the law the US had re. fixed line telephony.
Indeed, here in The Netherlands I've had such an NMT phone.
It used very large cells, I've had connection and made calls some 80 km. off the coast.
The disadvantage was anyone with a suitable radio receiver (me) could listen in on the various calls.
It has everything to do with population density!
The calculation is simple, how many users (=paying subscribers) per tower.
For a comparable population density that's the same calculation for small and large countries.
Btw, Sweden is slightly larger than California and nearly 2/3 of Texas, Sweden's population is nearly 10 million.
No, net neutrality is about treating all data traffic equal, regardless of origin or protocol.
They can only get away with it because US law is producer and not consumer driven.
For example, my ISP supplies me a 50/50 fiber link and also TV.
The TV bandwidth is additional to the 50/50 internet account, not taken out of it.
They have recently started to offer Netflix, if you take your own account it's running in the 50/50 package, if you take it as part of the TV package it will like HBO run outside of the internet package.
Because I would pay my ISP separately for Netflix (and HBO) it does not fall under net neutrality.
I believe you you can communicate effectively in both French and Quebecois, the significant part is you're not French and thus not convinced yours is the only suitable language and everyone should speak it.
I used to work for a French company and my French colleagues were totally convinced especially Italians, Portuguese and Spaniards will understand French providing you speak it loud enough...
Absolutely right and include hotmail and live mail to this short-list of unprofessionalism.
If your customers or employers are sensitive to the kind of prank of the article you have every reason to use a professional mail service.
We usually do build most parts in multiples.
After rigorous testing the best goes in service.
An example of 'recycled' parts is the Indian ScatSat-1 but there are others.
So what about this North Korean missile that was apparently tumbling in space?
Being launched from a similar latitude it might have been very close, being a very recent launch it's trajectory might not have been well understood.
Regardless, Kim Jong-un is the Supreme Leader and he knew where to hit.
Not just military!
My mentioning of ammonia is such a form of synthesising liquid fuel for turbines.
And I can tell you if you don't achieve 100% burn it stinks, one reason it's better for stationary systems.
I believe the MS part is significant for transparency as a 47% discount means their catalogue price is fully unrealistic and others should be able to follow up.

Thanks for the update, shows my age :)
Did they have seat belts?
Why?

Automated filling stations are not exactly new... :)
Windshield washing is a waste of time, just make sure the camera's have a clean lens

According to some Europeans with a certified lack of self esteem (Wilders, Le Pen, Winters, Farage) we'll soon be speaking Arabic.

It's called Line

The licensing was taken care of, Miscrosoft purchased legal protection from SCO for their UNIX tool-kit for windows,.

First I wanted to post this as AC but then decided one day I need to come clean anyway.
I installed Kubuntu including Libreoffice on the missus computer and never told her I took the 100% discount...
I believe the MS part is significant for transparency as a 47% discount means their catalogue price is fully unrealistic and others should be able to follow up.
Nice, just a question, why does it have 6 rounds?
