You are so wrong.
Regular breeding is the breeding of existing varieties of a species in the hope to achieve a better offspring
Genetic modification is done in a laboratory at microscopic level, right at the genes and often genetic traits of non-related species are put in the mix.
As we all know American politics, left or right, is deeply into the pockets of Hollywood.
Clearly this idea has come from the *iaa and they convinced the White House they can make some really good looking movies about trips to Mars, all without any tax money involved!
No, this law is about stuff you published all by yourself.
If you feel bad about stuff someone else has published about you you can pursue it on grounds like defamation.
The proposal for this law is about things you have personally supplied to a website, it's not about what others have done, defamation is covered in other laws.
The idea this has anything to do with limiting free speech is absurd.
or, in the case of multifunction devices, fully functional for at least one of the primary purposes for which the equipment was designed;
Not bad when there are at least spot checks on destination.
But I was drawn by the quoted part, I reminds me of the funny CC video with the cubicle dweller who's computer failed and then proceeded to knock the shit out of his monitor using his keyboard.
The reality is that in all the more advanced EU countries landfills are only used as a last ditch solution for the absolute last dredge of low toxic and non-recyclable stuff but regrettably there are still countries dragging their feet.
On the 19th. of January this year the EU parliament agreed with new regulations aiming at 85% recycling in 5 years time.
Especially anything with plastics, glass or metal in it goes to specialised shops where it's separated and made ready for reuse.
A recent (HP) computer I bought came with a separate sheet with detailed instructions on how to take it apart in such a for recycling facility.
Regretfully the corrupt world of waste trafficking has made it impossible to have a sustainable trade in used electronics with African countries.
There are many examples where the parts were disassembled in totally unsafe conditions and often involving child labour with the waste being dumped on the road side just out of town.
Properly disassembling old electronics is an art that requires large up front investments that are never going to happen in Africa.
Africa has enough electronics waste of their own without getting the western equipment also piled onto them.
From an economic perspective there is again little to gain by using previous generation equipment, when that stuff becomes uneconomical in a Western setting it's most likely uneconomical in Africa.
If there is such a thing a Western arrogance towards Africa it would most likely be from the conservative (stagnant) side of the political spectrum.
Europe has banned the export of any waste to any place, the ban is most certainly not limited to electronics and or Africa.
This ban came into effect after many cases of dumping of dangerous substances with terrible consequences for the receiving countries and people involved.
A good example is the present Slashdot poll about 3D TV, I don't have 3D (nor HD) and is primarily because my present 10 y/o flat screen works fine and I won't buy a new TV till the old one has given up.
The poll options given imply you'd buy an other TV just for the sake of some new and still to be proven tech.
By their own rules Interpol is not supposed to intervene on the grounds mentioned.
The fact Saudi Arabia has an inhumane legal system is widely known and as long as we want their oil it is not likely to change, but Interpol has done something against the moral values enshrined in their own constitution and the persons responsible should be challenged.
Compelling is the superior integration of not so free (like multimedia and drivers) items in the Ubuntu world where the Debian user has a lot more trouble getting it right.

It looks the way it looks because the rounded corners were already patented by Apple.
Sabayon has a pre compiled E17 version and it's in the Ubuntu repositories.
the wind WILL (not slim chance, not might, not maybe, WILL) cross-pollinate with some of the corn in his field.
So why are the organic farmers not suing more often for pollution by Monsanto's seed?

Genetically modified is just creative breeding

Being Swiss they'd hire a foreigner to do the dirty part.
I'm going to answer something filthy:
RTFA!
As long as the proposal of TFA is followed the fuel is not really an issue, TFA mentions a single fish per run.
Not exactly efficient for small fry but fine when they're able to catch a big one.

The problem is they have an Islamic majority including extremists of the Saudi kind.

"Morgen regnet es" makes tomorrow's rain (for a better word) compulsory, so yes, "will" it is.
Exactly my thought!
Because of apt-get being a better experience than rpm/yum etc.
For the moment Canonical will continue the logistical support for Kubuntu.
Start with the no-GUI server version, then tack on a desktop.
Compelling is the superior integration of not so free (like multimedia and drivers) items in the Ubuntu world where the Debian user has a lot more trouble getting it right.
When Canonical starts to actively block inclusion of packages like kde-desktop then I'll start to worry.
That's the point, so for the foreseeable future Kubuntu will live and prosper.
You think very lightly about interfacing and integration between the underlying OS and the desktop.
