Indeed, this plant generates electricity into the night and thus the lights will stay on longer while most kids are made in the dark.
Rather obvious, right?
For me that's similar to what a printed publication does, there it's on the same sheet of paper, on the web it's presented by the same server.
The moment an ad turns into a tracking device there are good reasons to block it.
That's what we call a 'Rotating Transformer', with a couple of pulleys and a belt you can even make it change between 50 and 60 Hz frequency.
Just a pity the one I use weighs nearly half a ton.
That's why he has a voltage adapter (AKA a transformer) in the INPUT of the strip:)
Not a bad idea when all your kit is for US voltage.
But a transformer that can handle several 100's of Watts is going to be heavy, like my Thinkpad has a 170W power supply.
The advantage is it will to an extend suppress some high frequency spikes by virtue of it's inductance.
It looks like you haven't seen a notebook in many years:)
Because it must have been in the days of the 286/386 that the build-in mains power supply was replaced by an external one, also referred to as a 'brick'.
All those I have ever seen are auto negotiating between ~100 - 250 Volts 50 - 60 Hz.
This means they will handle Voltage variations within that range which is not quite the same as handling frequency spikes and surges.
About the intelligence of a group, this is an open forum and 'by design' those with the strongest opinion will appear to be the voice of the 'group'.
The moderating system helps (can help) to suppress the over-abundance of loud mouths with hollow rhetoric and hopefully bring forward the more shy but insightful including AC's.

I mean, with Gnome you talk about about desktop Linux and that has benefited from systemd.
I support your dislike of Gnome (2, 3, x), that's why there is KDE, XFE etc.
See, evolution is based on science meaning you need to come up with valid and controllable arguments, even if they might not been finite in all details.
Creationism is based on beliefs meaning anyone can claim anything, all that a person needs is conviction and he can give an absolute and infallible answer.
Btw, you should wash your mouth, it's both dirty and frothing.
In your first sentence I read we differ on the appreciation for the words creationists and scientists, here I mean them as those that subscribe to one or the other line of thought.
Maybe I shouldn't see creationism as a line of thought but as a belief instead.
In your second paragraph you seem to quote a different poster.
I strongly believe that from the POV of this simple earthling outer space belongs to us all and it would at this point be foolish to leave exploration to individual states or even corporations (persons right?)
So my dream is to start building an ISS2 in a cislunar orbit, also orbiting the earth and moon.
As a side exercise, how much energy would be needed to propel the present ISS (+400 tons) to such an orbit, would it be feasible over say a 5 year period?
You are right, when writing my (premature) reply I was under the false impression this proposal was for a European ombudsman but it turns out there is a suggestion for a US ombudsman.
I have to humbly excuse myself for not reading the article correctly.
Thanks for pointing it out! BR>
the latest proposal to be floated by the US is the creation of a privacy ombudsman. The independent overseeing body would be charged with not only checking that data transfers between countries were carried out correctly, but also will be handing complaints from Europe.
This is indeed a wholly different issue and I agree with those that are sceptical, modern US law (not just privacy!) is way to fragile to make for an independent ombudsman, I hope the EU politicians will simply carry this idea to it's grave.
An example that brings out the difference in democracy between say The Netherlands and the US is the amount of money spend during elections.
The combined budgets of the various Dutch political parties for national elections will probably be around ten million euro's, that's divided over 20 different groups and 150 seats on a population of 17 million.
For the US population equivalent it would be less than 500 million. This is one reason we can still trust politics, it's near impossible to buy yourself a seat.
And then there is the fact that many EU countries will never have a single party government, it's typically a coalition of different parties.

80% oxygen in the atmosphere!
You better be real careful...
Indeed and it's a good thing, one reason why I have trouble understanding the reason why OP's power supply failed.
Woosh muh?
The obvious question is; what's a DLL?

But as a surge isolator it is bullet proof.

Surely you are joking? For me nothing less than KDE.
Do you really have to ask?
Suppose we get in a discussion and I don't agree with your points I could anonymously (!) mod you down which would destroy the discussion.
Now about modding on the subject but not the thread you have contributed to, that could be considered.

Over the past 12 years I've had laptops by HP, Toshiba, Asus and Lenovo, on all of them Linux worked well to excellent.
We also need a wtf and stupid mod.

Good points.
+1 interesting.
Though I'd be careful with the seniority and at least mix it with both historic and recent karma scores.
You are full of it...

Oh yes, and I needed to undo a wrong moderation.
Hehe, we'll never agree :)

Simple, creationists vs. scientists.
Good point about the greatly increased radiation!
No I certainly wasn't suggesting a delay but am not all that negative about continued corporation in space.

What stands out is that it would be a EU office, following EU laws, so I don't know why you refer to American agencies or laws.
