lol he hasn't hurt my feelings, how could he? I'm not American so his stupidity has no effect on me, except in the wider global sense maybe but then no more so than his best buddy Putin or any one else. That doesn't mean I can't post and point out that he's a fucking idiot and everything he says is grade A bullshit. There's a big difference between taking the piss out of someone and being offended by them. Let me say this again, Trump is a fucking joke and he is making America look really, really bad from an outsiders view. That isn't even the point though, all I said about was that I think he would jump on the chance to shut down criticism of himself, do you not think he would? Do you think he has shown himself to be open to that kind of thing in the way that you would expect a president to be and previous ones have been?
Nah but it is trump who keeps wondering out loud what kind of vague consequences there should be for people printing 'fake news' about him. Forget about what other people may have done, or tried to do for a minute, are you honestly telling me you don't think Trump would jump on a chance to shut down criticism of him? Because if you don't let me talk to you about this bridge I have for sale.
The citizens there get a small breath of fresh air & thinking from you,
I'm sure the locals love it when you turn and tell them how shitty their system is and how they just need to make a few simple changes to fix everything,
Democrats routinely attack reporters. They tend to do it with the aims of "deplatforming" them, ensuring that they are no longer able to report, by convincing companies to stop advertising with them, convincing social media sites to stop hosting their content, and convincing the companies that hire them to fire them.
Censorship is literally a progressive value.
Yeah and then they go on to burn their nikes and destroy their coffee machines....wait a sec. Free speech has consequence and if you are using yours to spew hate don't be surprised when people stop listening.
While Priests, Rabbis, Pastors, Imams, etc have taken a hit in recent years, there is still a certain level of respect that should be afforded to community leaders, especially older ones in good legal standing.
The only difference between a priest, rabbi, imam or whatever else and a conman is that they believe in the shit they're selling.
"The Channeled Scablands at one time were a relatively barren and soil-free region of interconnected relict and dry flood channels, coulees and cataracts eroded into Palouse loess and the typically flat-lying basalt flows remain after cataclysmic floods within the southeastern part of the U.S. state of Washington.... The last of the cataclysmic floods occurred between 18,200 and 14,000 years ago."
One area of earth that isn't in the circle of everything that happens in the bible is in has had a bunch of floods in the past does not evidence of the global flood create. If you are to actually saying the biblical flood happened then you are going to have to answer where did all the water to cover the world with an additional (at least) 8,500m/29,000ft above its current levels and where did it go? You're going to have to do a bit better than comet melted ice over american continent. I'll let you do the math of how much water you need to account for but it's a lot. Because god doesn't count either.
Not me dude, luckily he's literally not my president so I couldn't give a shit, but he does seem to be the one with the hurt feelings. Twitter rants all the time because tv people joked and hurt his ickle wickle feelwings:_( Awww whassa matter poor little snowflake? If he can put a stop to people criticising him you know for a fact he'd jump at the chance. It might even over take his wall on the list of things to pretend to be doing.
So they've basically made it so they (the state, the gov, politicians etc) can say anything they want and any one who might question it will be hit with "disrespect for society, the state, the official state symbols of the Russian Federation, the Constitution of the Russian Federation, and bodies exercising state power." and anyone not state sanctioned can be pulled on "unreliable socially significant information". Trump is probably checking to see if he can get away with that one too.
Admittedly the likelihood is so low as to be laughable but if the cost of playing on apple's pitch is too high what option do they have other than to take their ball elsewhere?
Who the fuck would use an xbox for presentations? Especially when you need the computer anyway, just hook it directly to the screen. Use a laptop/netbook like a normal person. Can you imagine their faces when you say hang on just have to set up and you pull out a fucking xbox?
According to the report, cubicle walls are the first considered target application. After that, HVAC, MRI and drones! I guess engines don't make much sound.
I have a better list:
the secretary's mouth in my dept
harley motorcycles
fat mufflers (should be illegal to begin with)
juicers
blenders
coffee grinders
factory machinery such as looms
heavy equipment
any worksite where there is a sign "hearing protection required past this point"
squeeking wheel in dining hall food tray carts when I have a fever
It's not a magic thing you can put on something to make it quiet. If it was there would a huge market in childcare.
The sound is reflected, it doesn't just disappear. The echo chamber inside your engine could experience some undesirable effects from all the resonance if the sound does not find somewhere else to radiate out from.
So you didn't RTFA. If you did, you wouldn't post a comment like this.
The basic premise is that the metamaterial needs to be shaped in such a way that it sends incoming sounds back to where they came from, they say.
Yeah, that's what reflected means. It's going to bounce off whatever it came from, maybe back the same way again and it will run out of energy after a few trips but it's probably not going to reflect directly back and could go off any way depending on what's producing the sound in the first place.
Sending it down a tube is one thing, there's only one way to go but try it in a complex machine and see what happens.
You can't seriously think an app business can survive without having their app on iPhones.
Seems they are having trouble on it too. Get enough apps to abandon the platform who will at most lose 20% of their customers whereas apple lose 100% of their 30% cut for nothing.
So how about you just remove your service from apple and encourage all your tech buddy mates to do the same with their services? It might feel scary to cut off a big bunch but iphone has what, a 20pc market share or something. There are worse things and you can always go back when (if) apple wise up and stop trying to take a third of everything.
Personal rant: I hate that many modern games don't do this properly anymore. If I press alt-f4 I don't want you to ask me whether I am sure I'd like to quit and then take 15s to actually quit, I'd like you to F*** OFF RIGHT NOW!
Is this a thing PC games can do? I mainly play elite and people are always moaning about combat logging which is basically doing that to get yourself out of a fight/death and the devs are always saying nothing can be done about it but if they could intercept that command and make the user piss around with an overlay while they get blown the fuck up they short of flat out pulling the plug that would basically be problem solved on that front.

Who calls ideas they don't like "hate speech"?
Hint: it ain't Trump.
No, he calls it fake news.

and then dense inert metal explosives
I'm no expert but if something is inert doesn't that mean it won't explode?
Satellites and missiles are the threat being countered here. These aren't designed to shoot humans from space if that's what you're thinking lol.
What things are 'designed' for and what things are used for don't always match up.
Nobody gives a fuck. Everyone on this site talks shit anyway.

Sorry, still don't see it. You must be the same guy who thinks the speed of the hammer has something to do with the glass breaking.
The sound is vibrations within the medium. You are talking about reflecting the medium itself. The sound involved is irrelevant in that regard.
According to the report, cubicle walls are the first considered target application. After that, HVAC, MRI and drones! I guess engines don't make much sound.

Sending it down a tube is one thing, there's only one way to go but try it in a complex machine and see what happens.
So they are cancelling sound... but not air flow. ... Even though that is literally the same thing.
Not really, sound is vibration waves in the air not the flow of air. If it was you wouldn't be able to hear much down wind of you.
If I ever wanted a hacker I wouldn't go to someone who calls themselves ace hacker lord.

That wasn't really a what about though, more sarcastically saying 'preserving security' isn't the goal, at least not in the way it's presented.
Win tab is prettier but I can't replace alt tab in my muscle memory.
Don't worry, it'll be gone in the next update, as soon as they figure out how to break the Alt-Tab thing.
They are just waiting for it to become a ubiquitous thing everyone takes for granted and then they will kill it without a word.
alt-f4 - Kill this shit immediately
Personal rant: I hate that many modern games don't do this properly anymore. If I press alt-f4 I don't want you to ask me whether I am sure I'd like to quit and then take 15s to actually quit, I'd like you to F*** OFF RIGHT NOW!
