so a bigger radius than thin plexiglass. 1mm acrylic sheets have a bend radius of 200 mm.
It will probably need a backing to prevent bending it too tightly.
Window glass and gorilla glass are quite different beasts. Window glass scratches far more easily and breaks less easily. You can scratch a window with a key easily. You can't scratch gorilla glass that easily. That is because gorilla glass is harder. Like the difference between plastic and cast iron. Plastic is easily scratched. Cast iron isn't. But, as you probably know, the results of dropping a cast iron object and a plastic object can be quite different. That's why dropping a phone isn't covered in the warranty and that's why I have an ugly silicone/polyurethane casing over my phone.
Aluminosilicate glass. Try scratching a modern smartphone display, keys are not going to do it.
Sure! Hey, can I borrow your phone for a sec?:)
Dunno about keys, they are in my other pocket. However, my dog has been quite busy trying to demolish my phone. The screen was not protected by a silicone/polyurethane case as the rest was. It didn't have a scratch. The case was damaged fiercely but that was only E9.
That one has some usability issues.
1. Its rays are spread out quite largely and thus the thermal difference isn't big enough to build a thermal powerplant on it without large mirror setups.
2. Rooftop solar means people die because they tend to slip and drop from the building.
3. It goes down at night.
4. Clouds mess things up.
5. The most interesting parts of the world solar wise are not politically stable.
Solar is a part of the solution. It is not the complete solution.
Long term this is counterproductive to that. The only way for fewer people to die is fewer people to be born. One of the few ways to achieve that is for people to die before their first child. Increasing road safety would decrease the percentage of deaths before reproduction.
By the way, condoms are a nicer way to cause fewer people to die.
You may have a point. I am not a masochist so I don't read ToS's and Eula's, thus I don't know. They may very well be ambiguous. And in some cases that would probably make them invalid. I am not a lawyer so I can't say for sure.
"Clear" in this probably means not ambiguous. Open for only one interpretation. Readable is not what they mean. In fact those often contradict each other. If all alternate interpretations are ruled out then wording usually gets a bit complicated.
That is completely beside the point. Texting stops as soon as the phone is dropped (presumably at green light). Being drunk doesn't stop as soon as the bottle is put down.
Nope. It's more like: why calculate the area of 1,000,000,000,000 rectangles when I can create a program that tries areas for each rectangle until one fits while I go drink beer. I'll correct along the way if required.
Or of course: I don't exist and the program that tries the area's to the rectangles emerged by itself. This is bollocks on rectangles but extremely feasible on evolution.
Which one is the truth depends on the unprovable existence of a god. Unless that god is GLR, cause then you can prove it.
Nope, separate GPU's work fine for this. And not 4. And without the useless graphical outputs.

It's not as big with driving as it is with brewing beer as a hobby. Cars are often involved in lethal accidents. I hope that in time self driving will become illegal, except on a race track.
They should re-aim the building to a no parking spot.
Or focus it on a spot that can handle it. Perhaps a salt container. Use the molten salt to make steam and use that to make power (as has been done before).
Practical execution of re-aiming a building is left as an exercise to the reader because I have no idea how to do that.

Meh, at a max surface temperature of 55K they can't be all that hot. And they would be complaining of the cold all the time.
Yes, except you can figure out how to win consistently without meeting with an unfortunate accident.
He was joking that the US outsourced it's surveillance to China because labor there is cheaper.
I do wish people would keep their CO2 spewing toys away from my atmosphere.

Nope, It would save a fortune on bridges. We would be able to ride across the ice.

both dead more than 180 years (Weber died in 1920).
I never noticed it was after 2100. I didn't even notice falling into a cryogenic chamber. Weird.

I rather like the PT cruiser. Somehow I like the oldtimer style it has.
It's not much uglier than a random SUV. About as ugly as a Hummer or a RAV4 IMHO.
Or that the biasing factor happened to be exactly the opposite of the difference between his local population and the population the CDC used.

A relatively life like fake grenade is just as useful as a real one if you wish to capture a plane. People will react the same to them.
That's completely aside from the fact that the TSA is a ridiculous feel-secure farce to begin with.
Watts per second? They keep increasing their power? Did they start this linear growth at the discovery of X rays? They must be stopped!
Nah that isn't a problem. Most cat food in the universe is not left out. It's on planets.
Just get the best from both worlds: wired low orbit satellites.
