My amateur understanding of it is that the particularly deadly strains burn themselves out fairly quick, because a dead person doesn't spread disease like an ambulatory one. Because we have a much better understanding of these things today(transmission, sanitation, incubation, etc), a pandemic in a modern society will be more difficult for a virus to attain and easier to avoid the scorch the earth policy necessary to eradicate it. Granted, small deadly outbreaks can't be stopped, but it would be less likely for it to spread like we've seen before before it burns itself out.
5 miles away behind a mountain? Maybe from the causeway. I guess the Google guys aren't important like me(haha!). I've been to one on the VIP platform. It's about 3 miles away, and has a great view of the launch unobscured by smoke(unlike the causeway). Seriously, though, I don't see how 2 of the most successful men in the US couldn't see a launch from the VIP platform unless they didn't even try to see a launch in the first place.
So you suggest I voluntarily give my credit card information to Google? No, I'll pass. I trust Yahoo more than I trust Google with my personal information, as Google has made it very explicit what they demand from their users recently.
Little tinfoil hattish, I agree, but meh. Datamining is the primary goal, and from the wardriving we know that personal data privacy be damned.
Then you'd have to hope the index they use is a good one. Inflation has been low in the past decade.. don't tell that to people that use gasoline, natural gas, heating oil, medicine, doctors services, grains, corn, beef, etc etc
The AMT was only supposed to affect the rich as well... Look how that turned out(and continues to turn out every year). Look, I'm cool with taxing these people, but all these cute little plans ultimately only bite one group of people in the ass, and it's those that are neither rich nor poor.
Not really. New Hampshire is the closest thing you can get to a libertarian state. While this may give financial relief at times, what is essentially happening is extra government regulation. You forget that New Hampshire defies the federal government in regards seatbelt laws because they disagree with regulation. The voters didn't vote on this legislation, and it's not something you would expect from New Hampshire because it increases the very thing they're typically against, which is increased regulation.
Yes, but you're assuming society and rules will exist if it comes to guns. In the event of an insurrection, the trained people with all the guns will win. In the event of a bunch of kids walking around downtown, sure, guns don't do shit. This is why the leader of Syria will remain in control until a foreign military intervenes(just like Libya). Assad's not afraid to use real violence to remain in power
This isn't a problem on your average desktop, but it blows ass on older machines, laptops, and netbooks that don't have the resources or the newer technologies that help offset the fact that Firefox is fat
So, is Web 3.0 going to be hectic dynamically tiled web design that looks like it belongs on TMZ and other gossip rags rather than respected news websites? There is such a thing as too much active content, you know
There are executables you can run to accomplish the same thing, but they're manufacturer(and sometimes phone) specific, since they have different MFG codes. That said, it took my 5 minutes to root it through the registry.
Indeed, worked for large multinational corps the past decade+ doing tech support and implementation. Typically you do need to work in an office for a while before they'll let you work from home, but those types of jobs are out there.

Mod parent Informative. This is 100% accurate comparison to existing fiction, rather than grasping at blue alien sentience transference straws

but I forgot what we were talking about

Indeed. This is highly important

Consider that New Hampshire's motto is Live Free or Die. They have never taken kindly to government regulation in the state of New Hampshire.
You're forcing an entity to do something it might not want to do. I don't know about nanny-state, but it's not necessary free choice.

Which would be fine if Obama wasn't authorizing assassination of Americans for being loud mouths

I don't, either. I pull them out of Process Explorer. That is unless your ass actually is Process Explorer

It's fairly easy to root. Get the MFG password, set a half dozen reg keys through the phone, bam, rooted.

Where is the originality?
That is to say I did them from home.
