It has been that way ever since Eternal September. The internet lets everyone speak - but people in general are terrible at recognising the limitations of their knowledge. They aren't stupid, exactly - they are usually entirely competent in their specialised field. But they don't see how inept they are at everything else. They've read a few opinion columns on economics, so they consider themselves fit to weigh in upon tax policy. They took high-school science, so they act as if they can judge the entire field of climatology - and a lot of the time, everything else in science too.
They are still arguing about things like school history textbooks - China accuses Japan of whitewashing their atrocities, Japan accuses China of exaggerating some of them or presenting them in a way that makes them seem like current practice. But it's a peaceful debate involving much slinging of insults and very little slinging of missiles.
Delivered through a system as practical as it is insane-sounding: There's one power cable, doubling as an armor layer. The station at one end drives it +lotsofvolts relative to ground, the other drives it -lotsofvolts. All those amplifiers are hooked up in series.
Why are you so confident they don't already have it?
Between spies infiltrating endpoints and fiber-tapping subs (If the US has one, which they do, China almost certainly does too), it's best to assume all data is or can be captured in transit and focus on end-to-end encryption.
The latter. The ARM surface will only run MS-approved apps (With the usual awkward workaround for developers), so you have to use their API and libraries anyway.
We're speculating on how easy it would be for terrorists to get hold of explosive despite all the awkward restrictions put in place to stop them. Safety is not going to be their greatest concern, and the explosive I described can be made using only paint thinner, hair bleach, a dash of battery acid and kitchen utensils. All things which are readily available, unrestricted and far too common to effectively ban.
Given they are putting in kilowatts and getting hard-to-measure tiny thrust out... even if you improve it by five orders of magnitude, it's still not lifting the weight of the power supply from a 1G-surface planet.
Boil down some hydrogen peroxide, mix with acetone (Make sure to chill it!), and you can get some propanone peroxide. Decent bang, bit oversensitive. Makes a good detonating explosive, but insane to use as your main charge - one knock and the whole thing goes up.
1. Use telemedicine to handle chemical abortion, in states where there are few or no clinics left that will carry out elective abortion due to intimidation and harassment. 2. Watch as those states pass bills (Some already have) to ban telemed abortion, while claiming that they are just trying to outlaw a dangerous procedure that kills women. 3. Watch as courts strike down those laws as placing an undue burden and thus violating Wade, pointing out that the claimed reason is clearly only a pretext as non-abortion telemedicine is not prohibited. 4. Watch as states pass new bills to outlaw telemedicine completly.
The thrust from these drives is far too low to launch with. You still need the big rocket to make orbit. Then you can switch to the new maybe-it-works drive. The acceleration is minuscule, but times that by a few months and you can still make a pretty good delta-V from it.
Economic reasons. The big CO2 emitter is the use of fossil fuels, which are really cheap and really convenient - that's why we use them in such quantity. Cheap energy helps all industry. Restrict CO2 and you raise the cost of energy and the cost of transport, which will have a negative economic impact.
Millions of displaced people fleeing the rapidly expanding desert that used to be their home is going to have an economic impact too.
Depends on 'compromise.' It's not always about getting data out.
Compromise could mean 'upon detecting this sequence of bytes, suspend your packet filtering for ten seconds so we can sneak our exploit through the firewall.' Or 'upon this sequence of bytes, switch the random number generator off and start using the pre-stored crypto key for new conversations so we can intercept them.'
I'm guessing that CoLP, being the specialist force for the country on matters of fraud and (now they have PIPCU) criminal copyright infringement, probably have some sort of authorisation to act nationally on those specific areas.
It's a price issue. A high-end graphics card can cost as much as the entire console - margins are so tight, it's common for manufacturers to lose money on the consoles at times in order win market share and thus game licence money. They have to skimp on the hardware. Not many people are going to buy a PS3 if the XBox One is $90 more expensive, and vice versa.
Nintendo found a great solution: They have pathetically slow hardware and freely admit it, instead choosing to focus on genres that don't demand high performance and encouraging game asthetics that do not strive for photorealism.
That's been going on for a long time. Most of the districts within London are former towns. Give it another century and it'll probably have assimilated all the way down to Dartford.
That's more the US police. Those in the UK very rarely beat anyone up without good reason. We've got a slightly better oversight system here. If you make a complaint you can be confident it'll get investigated by a proper independant commission, and not the guy who shares pizza with the accused every Friday.

I've been pushing (In the most annoying of manners) for my regular contacts to set up Retroshare as a secure IM program.

There's some free space on the dark side of the moon, but you wouldn't like the neighbors.

It's been done. I don't know exactly how the physics works, but light has been halted in the lab. It involves a Bose-Einstein condensate.

Sounds like they reinvented interlacing, one of the great evils of the analog era.
You should have left out the baby bit - all the other complaints span political divides, but abortion is a factional issue.

This also applies to Morgan Freeman.
