As a fellow road user, your assertion that you don't have to follow the rules of the road is arrogant and dangerous. As far as I am concerned if you don't want to follow the rules of the road get off public roads.
Except the worlds fastest rural broadband which is basically a brand new FTTH build out located in the UK never got any of that public subsidy and is run as a community benefit society
Right got a reference for that? The reason it appears the trusses where not replaced is that it would require the bridge to be shut similar to what is actually happening right now.
So given the new bridge was incoming at the very least delaying the replacement till after the FRC was open and the FRB could be shut without causing disruption the risk modelling probably said this was the smart option.
But hey why not deflect everything away from the government who where ultimately responsible, but too busy trying to arrange and win an independence referendum with lies about how rich all the oil was going to make us, to actually get on with running the country.
The problem with your 4-way stops is they are fucking as dangerous as hell. You could hardly design a less safe junction if you tried. Introducing a roundabout has been proven may times over to lead to around a 90% drop in fatality rates at junctions.
I doubt the majority of the extra mass is down to just the size. Making a car a few centimetres wider and longer will add a few kg at most because the while bigger it is mostly air you are looking at. The height being the most extreme example as you are just adding mass at the pillars.
The extra weight is coming from all the safety features. All those side impact bars and the like, along with all the electronic systems modern cars have. Even the tyres on a modern car are heavier than in the past. We have gone from skinny things to huge fat things. A classic Mini is something like a 165/60 R12 while a new Mini is a 195/60 R16.
Out side the USA Winnie the Pooh is locked up for life plus some duration. That is 70 years in most places so 2027.
Also while the USA has a ruling on the use of trademarks to lock up copyright for longer that does not apply to the rest of the world.
Why is this relevant, because Happy Birthday has been out of copyright out side the USA for some considerable period of time. However if you wanted to make a movie that had someone singing it you need a license if you wanted to show it in the USA. In effect it was still in copyright.
Right so if I do some mutagenic enhanced breading (to speed things up) with DNA profiling till I get a pig with a mutated version of the CD163 protein that makes it unsuitable for the PRRS you would be happy with that because it is entirely "natural"?
Instead they have gone in with the Cas9/CRISPR gene editing, have precisely targeted the gene for this protein and disabled it. The CD163 protein is well understood, the gene for encoding it is know and the result of that is that it can be targeted and removed with complete precision.
EVERYTHING you previously knew about gene editing is now totally out the window with the new techniques based around Cas9. It is impossible to overstate how game changing the new Cas9 based gene editing and disabling technologies are. There is a Nobel prize for Medicine coming for this.
Final thought for the day is everything food stuff that you consume has had it's genetic material altered by man. Even fish caught out the ocean have suffered selective pressures that have effected their genomes.
It's called a replacement tooth. Basically you harvest some stem cells, do some magic, implant into the jaw and wait while a replacement tooth grows back.
They are having quite a bit of success in lab animals. Though one imagines that they probably won't do a full tooth replacement when a filling could do the trick. On the other hand, crowns, inlays, root canal work etc. will all be out the window.
But how many of these critical flaws are SQL injection flaws? As has been observed elsewhere every dam PHP howto seems to be keen on using dynamic SQL queries rather than using stored procedures that more or less kill SQL injection issues stone dead (that is unless you start using dynamic SQL in your stored procedure).
What would be interesting is to see the SQL injection flaws removed from these figures.
For most people getting a bank account in two different countries is quite difficult. I would further argue that two different bank accounts is overkill.
What you need (and what I do) is three different credit cards from completely different suppliers. That is I have one Visa card from one bank and a separate Mastercard from another bank. These live in my wallet. I have a third credit card that lives heat sealed in a draw in an metallized antistatic bag between two sheets of cardboard.
The idea is that the two different cards in your wallet/purse insulate you from problems with a card when you are out and about. That could be anything from a problem with the bank, your card suffering physical damage or in my experience your card being stopped due to fraud.
The third card in "tamper proof" packaging that makes access to the card information impossible without me knowing is in case your wallet/purse gets lost or stolen. Once you get back home you will have easy access to making purchases again until the replacement cards arrive. This third card is linked into PayPal and used for PayPal purchases to keep it ticking over.
The thing is having your card stopped due to fraud on it, or having it lost/stolen is way more likely than having your bank hit by a cyber attack. That said in a UK context and your bank comes under the RBS umbrella they appear to have a track record of shooting themselves in the foot so just move to another bank would be a good starting point.
The difference here however is that Microsoft would not need to replicate every last API's from scratch, which is what Wine is trying to accomplish. Further more even if some Android library needs modifying to work with Microsoft's shim layer they have access to the full source code for that library which makes life a whole lot simpler.
So because the amount of services/API's that need replicating are much lower your chances of succeeding are much higher.
Further more in the interim you could simply cut a deal and target the Amazon App store. While it does not have the depth of the Google Play store in terms of applications it does a lot better than the Windows App store and makes a good starting point.
Finally Microsoft have resources to throw at the problem that Wine has never had. By resources I mean the ability to put developers on the problem full time.
To produce a useful amount of helium by this method would require fusing sufficient hydrogen to literally boil the oceans of the world.
The problem with helium is that once it is vented into the atmosphere it is unrecoverably lost to outer space.
At least filling hard drives with the stuff is accomplishing something useful. I contrast this with a party balloon that could just as easily be filled with hydrogen gas, and would just make a slightly louder bang when popped as a result.
Home schooling in the United Kingdom is way and I mean *WAY* more difficult that in the USA. If you are not a qualified teacher you are onto a no hopper to begin with because you will have to be inspected by Ofsted and you will fail otherwise. By the time you get to secondary school level meet the curriculum requirements is nigh on impossible for home schooling.
It's a bit more complicated than that. The terror was largely imaginary. It should however be noted that massacres occurred on both sides. That is Jews massacred Arabs and Arabs massacred Jews.
The turning point was the was exaggerated on both sides but in particular by the Arabs of "Deir Yassin". The Arabs thought that by claiming that the women had been raped it would help their position and get the Arabs nations to enter the war. There are numerous eyewitness Arab accounts utterly denying the rape allegations. The result of the rape allegations however was the catalyst for the Palestine's to run away.
If you abandon something and run away that's your choice, expecting to be let back later is a gamble you take at the time you ran away. For the Palestinians it was a really really bad call, but it was their call made with free will.
On the other hand the USA, UK and USSR decided to forceably deport 14 million ethnic Germans from eastern europe with anywhere up to two million dying, Rather less than the 700k Palestinian's who fled of their own free will. Or how about the expulsion of 100-200k Greeks from Egypt, or the 900k from Algeria to prove that the Arabs are just as guilt of forced ethnic cleansing as anyone else.
This a million times over. The three most recent examples being South Korea, Japan and Germany. In all instances we are still there more than half a century later. Well OK I am British so we are not technically in South Korea or Japan these days, but we still have bases in Germany 70 years later.
Except my TV uses less than 0.1W in standby. Just in case you missed that decimal point it is less than 100mW, and that is even with the red LED to tell me it is in standby illuminated. I am not actually sure what the real number is because the manual says just says less than 100mW and I my measurements say it is less than ~80mW, it all gets rather tricky as basically you are measuring the lowest amount of current that my multimeter is capable of doing on mains voltages.
It also has a hard off button on the side, that takes it down to 0W. However given the difference is so little that I can save more energy by picking an aluminium drinks can off the ground and putting in the recycling than the TV would consume in a whole year on standby.
Sure standby was bad, but a properly designed device can have a standby so slow it makes no practical difference.
If you took all the terrorists who died in 9/11 put them into trucks with bombs and had them all drive in to major substations across several major cities in the north east of the USA and blow them up they would have killed if indirectly a order of magnitude more people and done an order of magnitude more economic harm than they actually did.
You could easily put a major city like New York with out power for many months. There is simply not the "slack" in the supply of new transformers to replace them in what would be considered a reasonable time frame.
Blow up a few dozen pylons with remotely detonated explosive devices and it would take months to reconstruct and add even more woe.
The electricity supply infrastructure in any western country can easily be destroyed at a much greater rate than it can be repaired and replaced and it is all unprotected.
Heck even the gas pipelines are largely unprotected as well, thought they are buried in the ground. Again they would take weeks or months to repair.
Strike in the dead of winter of extra effect, or in a hot place at the hight of summer.
Our saving grace is that the "terrorists" (because those in the Crimea are not terrorists unless you are whacked out Putin apologists) are simply too dumb to understand all this.
Yes a change of snow conditions, hitting a bare patch etc. does feel like your ski has been grabbed by a bear trap. However if you do fall over that is because your position on the skies, was bad in the first place and you where too slow to correct it.
Here is a YouTube video on how to box slide which is probably the closest freestyle trick to the James Bond ski over a table stunt you are referring too.
You are assuming they don't pump the "tails" back down to the ocean floor. Near bottom plumes as they are known are however still likely to have environmental impacts.
DeBeers have been doing sea floor mining for quite a while now for diamonds of the coast of Africa.
The difference there is the right to silence. If you wish to enter the UK and the Border Agency officer pulls you out the line then you have to answer the questions put to you. If you don't you will be put on a plane/boat back to whence you came from, or simply won't be allowed on the train (for those coming through the chunnel).
If you are being "questioned" by the police you can just sit there and remain silent.
Settlement beyond Mars in this solar system is tricky. The remaining planets are all gas giants and completely impossible for humans to even visit the surface; assuming they have a surface that is.
I suppose we might be able to hollow out an asteroid, that's further than Mars. We might also make it to Callisto, but the options for settlement beyond Mars are very limited to being with.
