No. The cost of nuclear would be cheaper, if there was less nimbyism. Less rabid environmentalism, especially from the haydays of the 60's and 70's. The maintence costs are smaller on modern reactors. Decommissioned and rebuilt reactors take a fraction of the time when you're not using 50 year old technology. It does scale, and scales well.
Perhaps you could grow up, and realize that the power generation capabilities are right in front of you. And other parts of the world don't have the fear of the 'nuclear boogyman' that americans, and some europeans do.
Perhaps you should realize that there's nothing wrong with the western lifestyle. And there is no shortage of power, and it's 100% sustainable. Nuclear is a cheap, easy, simple method to provide lots of power. And that giant ball of fire, that's a raging nuclear furnace? Or is it something so insignificant that it has no impact on the world at all? If need be that can be tapped. It would require microwave power transmitters, and beaming power back from space but it would work just fine. At least until we move from fission to fusion.
One only needs to look to the hyper-environmentalist agendas that are running amok in western governments to see that driving civilization into the dirt is just that. Pollution != Climate change no matter how much you try and make it so. And that you used that, shows exactly where your bias sits.
That *is* the accurate translation of the scientific statement into politics, and the political agenda that governments are basing things on. In other words, people with an agenda who want to drive you into the dirt.
You know I'm not sure that's the real problem. See there were already some really kick ass cars made in the last 20 years that got really good mileage. The problem? They were too good, or they were neigh indestructible. A 4 day, but long work week would be a good option for one thing, personally I'm a bigger supporter of that. I already work it in my job.
Anyway, as for cars and all that? My old saturn sw2 gets around 43mpg on the highway, and that's not isolated. Most saturn owners that have the manual, and their cars were made between '94 and 2001 report the same, more so with the original SW series. Some even higher upwards of 52mpg as normal milage on the highway. The lightweight body panels help a lot.
It is a judgement, but in Canada, new cases and rulings are generally published as a brief. A short condensed version before the judges, justices, or JP's finish writing out their full opinion. Even in the even that a single judge leads, the other 2 will often give their own opinions as to why they're in agreement. Which are stripped out for the short condensed version.
In Canada, in a panel of judges or justices, they all give their views. This looks to be just the brief, which means it'll take upto a month before the full record is posted since it's not a breaking or earth shattering case. "Property" cases in Canada rank low, personal cases rank high, and are published quickly.
Anyway, I recommend reading CanLII's page, since it automatically links decisions to make this decision, and has the reflex record built in.
Honestly I'd say it's more of an issue of GPS makers. As part of the "on call" tote alone guys who goes to rescue people when the provincial police, or RCMP can't get to them ASAP, the bigger problem is just that. Those of us in the area know that if you're going down a cowpath, it's a cowpath. And it's sure not rated for a vehicle in the middle of the winter with 2m of snow on the ground. Summer? Well maybe, but it's probably better for a ATV or something similar.
At least cell phones work if spotty, and CB's work more or less. But if GPS companies simply didn't grab X map, that lists every back path that's marked by surveyors, we'd probably have less of a problem. And I wouldn't have frozen my ass off this past winter, when it was -40C without the windchill, to find someone who got lost on a back path that's marked ATV/Snowmobile only with signs.
Nothing. Which is why the whole social liberalism coming home to roost, rings true. Ah good old "social justice" stripping people of their dignity, by telling them that they're too stupid to think on their own.
Vacuum tubes were replaced by transistors which are smaller, cheaper, much more reliable, much more capable of integration and for most applications have superior performance characteristics. Valves don't give you anything extra.
I don't know about that. I've got a radio that I listen to every day. I listen to this radio because I like how it sounds. It of course only gets AM, SW and LW. This radio just finished passing it's 90th birthday, and still has all of it's original tubes in it. That's 5-10hrs of use every day for the last 90 years. That's pretty good in my book.
As for valves? Hah right.
Vinyl records. Well, some people still hold on to them. But, CDs are generally sound better, are smaller, more robust, don't wear out as they are played, cheaper due to the small size, hold more audio, don't need to be double sided etc. There are apparently a few cases where vinyl is alleged to be better, and that's probably why they still exist.
CD's sound clearer. But don't sound better. They are easier to play but there's a natural warmth to the sound. Find a good record player, and you'll hear the difference yourself.
Incandescent bulbs haven't gone yet. I, personally avoid them where possible
They probably won't go anywhere either. Not only are they lasting longer than CFL's, you don't need to worry about the mercury.
Well I suppose that's one way to support the illiterate masses who are the product of 35 years of liberalism in the UK. I mean who cares if the NEET's don't want to do anything and leech off the majority of the population. That's not *their* problem.
Really not every automaker uses proprietary code either, because they have to conform to the OBD/2 diagnostics standard. There's generally two questions I ask when I'm out either looking at cars, or going with people who are looking to buy. Does it have a timing chain, and does the computer use proprietary code.
There are options, and it's upto the consumer to decide who they want to get their money.
Well lets see, pepboys(us), partsource(cdn), and a few other places do it for free, and will even loan out the tools for a small deposit which you get back so you can read code data. And plenty of other smaller shops, including 3 in my home town loan out all the tools you'll need for the repairs. Including interface scanners.
So while they might have something on the whole "proprietary format" crap, there's no shortage of places which will loan out tools. And my city is tiny, around 30k people.
Doesn't mean that her idea is any less stupid than any other "system" that's been brought into existence, or in use, or tried to be thrown onto people. Until the media cartels are broken, this won't change though.
Oh look. It's the new leftie discourse, same as the old discourse. Insults included. And you wonder why the other side of the political spectrum doesn't care what you say.
You know I can't figure out how it was a huge bomb. Most people that I know who played it 10 years ago, still love playing it today. And with the FSOpen project, it looks prettier today than it did then.
Interplay has repeatedly refused to release the source. Same with the Freespace/Freespace 2 source until Volition started getting cranky then it came out. But I hold to hope that one day we'll see a Freespace 3 with volition doing it.

Yeah well Texas figured out how to do it for those that can't. They make looses pay the court costs if they file frivolously.
Probably not. That's why the statement of 4 boxes in liberty exist.

Better watch out. The cult of carbon will mod you down for pointing out the hypocrisy of the "elites" and all that bourgeoisie and proletariat stuff.

Just what the hell is this, and why do I feel like I'm at marketers meeting?
What? You mean the bottom feeding chav that was a known drug dealer, and had a rap sheet as long as my body couldn't have been the instigator?
FUCK!
Everyone at Cisco and the DOJ? They seem to be lining him up for a pretty good ass reaming as it is.
Again. Doesn't make it any less stupid, inane, or fucked up.
