The gas price currently here is $ 6.56 per gallon (netherlands), so the break even would be much sooner. (i gues arround 90.000 miles, exact calucation makes no point )
Besides that, I recently drove a corolla and a priusm and i definity would prefer a prius if i had the choice, The CVT alone is a big plus.
I did read the article. It claims that the price of the power pack will not go down to 250$/Kwh because only 70% of the costs are sensitive to scale improvements (with current technology types). Where exactly this 70% number comes from is not clear to me.
The same article states that lithium costs are only about 2% of the price, so the raw material (12%) is not the issue. An other point is that a lot of the pack (32%) is purchased materials. That part will go down also because the producers of those part can get advantages of scale i would think, exactly why the last part of the article is about teaming up.
The article is only talking about current lit-ion technologies, so new technologies can tip the scale. However you can not make a lengthy report based on technology that does not exist (that is called science fiction);)
That should take a few hours if you're familiar with something (anything) else; maybe a week hunting down tutorials, or a day hanging with a qualified mentor, if editing bitmaps is all new to you.
If it takes you longer than that, you're either stupid or lazy.
I think i am stupid. I am an occasional user of editing software for my home needs. I do manage to do some things with (a downloaded) photoshop, but I stay new with it HOW to do things. With GIMP I often fail to do it in a reasonable timeframe. Recent versions have become better, but to draw a simple line like in paint can be a nightmare.
They can revoke keys but then there is a new problem:
-What if the system becomes unusable without a certain driver ( maybe even because the rootkit kills the system deliberate in that case). Who is responisble. -If the user gets prompted, what are his options? (e.g. in the simple case his system clock is wrong, but the error message is not clear). -What if revoking disables the sound of 66% of the windows machines and ONLY disable 0,001% the rootkit (but not even the actual virus).
If you think this over, you realize how much issues there are with revoked/expired certificates. The math behind them is correct, but the consequences are much more complicated.
Internal costs are not real money. If they charge more internal costs you company will not make more profit. The game changes immediately when you considering outsourcing the same tasks.
The silence of the electric motor is a very good add-on to make carmageddon style pedestian kills. Unless that feature is negated by downloadable car sounds when the car is in electric mode.
Those german salt mines were supposed to be safe when then put the waste in there. Only a few dozen years later they were proven wrong. (Please check the facts on this one, not your believes)
Same problem happen in yucca: can you granantee it still is safe in 100 years? And what if the operator goes bankrupt in 50 years, what will the state of yucca be 100 years later? That is a long period!
And because you are talking about glassified waste it is high energy waste, but don' forget there also is a multiple of low radiation waste (gloves, pipes of the centra) that needs to be taken out of the biosfere for a long period.
Except if new insights require the wast to be dug up, like in the German salt mines. This dug up will be paid by the state of course, because it is in the public interest.
According to opponents waste is a problem, according to proponents all the problems can be solved.
Insurance also is such a factor. the first 10 Billion (US situation) is insured by the plants, anything over that would be paid by taxes. Compare that to the cost of Chernobyl ( ~ 235 Billion) or 3 mile island (close to a billion). You will not have to take such insurance on solar power or wind power, (not sure on hydro power).
Changing a low rpm to a high rpm only requires a simple gear. That surely is no high tech thing.
The problem would be more that Americans (and Japanese) are not used to diesel.
Also there might be relative less gain for a hybrid diesel by running it a at constant speed than for hybrid gasoline.
And there is a money thing. A Diesel engine currently is more expensive than a gasoline egine. Adding the price of diesel + electric might just make it too expensive (compared to...).

And as a maintainer of computer hardware, you rarely get to choose, you often get some kind of mix of OS that has to be maintained, the only choice you get is to maintain it or not maintain it.

But still the license to use software (independent of the dongle ) is based on copyright. You were allowed to copy the software on the computer based on the license. And the license probably said you need to use the dongle.
Circumventing the dongle might/might not be illegal, but the license to use the software was violated. Breaking DRM will still leave all other copyright laws (On which the GPL is also based...)
The law speaks about an effective control to access of the works, but once a DRM measure is broken is is by its very definition no more effective? Especially CCS is very broken nowadays, it is hardly more effective than a single ROT13.
NO NO NO. installing a cocktail of AV software is NOT the answer in a system that has to do 27/7 operations and has to be kind of real-time responsive.

All that is visible now is badly faxed (or bad photocopy, or "A Btich to read") that is included in the court case.
The contract is signed 28 April 2003, and the duedate for the streetfax thing is 31 2003.
And then there is is a Thing about the facebook that has a due data 9 months later. That just is not logical. 1000 dollar for 3 days work and 1000 dollar for 9 months work. That is the inconsistency the layers are speaking of.
Looking at that you would think that the contract could be a fake. However the reproduction of the contract is such a bad quality that this is very hard to say something about it.
Normally you would want to start to check if the font types on the contract match on the first and second page, but this is near to impossible, because the quality in the court version is so bad. It is even hard to read
Notice that the the first mention of the "the work to be performed for "the Face book" (in section 3) looks more "the Piage book", this is just very very hard to read.
It could be fakes, but layers are not going to call that without some expert haven taken a look at it. With only the fax copy to work with they can not call it a fake, since there is no evidence about it.
I bet zuckerburg is not frantically going over his old achives seeing if there still is some shreds of this contracts are left. That would save a ton of lawyer fees.
You are just a collection of water and some solid as result of some biological processes that happen all the time. Your flesh can be used to fill slashdot or feed some carnivores.

1. GPS has errors. Sometimes you are projected on a adjacent road. Your device will try to correct this by projecting you to the nearest road. I bet that without these kind of corrections roads will not be strait. GPS systems that are connected to the CAN-BUS of your car carry a huge premium. 2. You can go off-road. Or take the GPS out of the car and walk (maybe not in America, but in Europe we walk and bike...;) ) 3. You need a extensive user interface for this that is not build in weekend of hacking. Image a 2d version of wikipedia. (and some intelligence will be needed or your GPS will guide you to Penis road.). Teleatlas does not have it, google is just starting.
There is a romour that hollywood wants to make a doctor who movie. J depp is named as a dr who actor (I think Depp would fit the role of the bad guy better, but who am i).
If you bothered to look into the properties of "vncutil.exe" you would have seen it is "Virtual Noise Cancellation". (still a strange name because you "really" cancel the noise or do not cancel it at all. ). That sounds a lot more logical than a remote control program is included in the drivers.
Is anybody aware of any response from realtek? Is there any sane journalistic site that asked from realtek their response and got a better response than a standard PR response. Because leaking of the realtek keys might mean that any realtek produckt might be infected if they do not find the cause of the leak.
The start of the source code is not marked. Since has a stop of line with a single "." there are 2 dots in start of the program that give a compile error.

But still it surely better than the current mandate the soldier in afganistan have. Their main weapon now are bullits and heavier variant, and it is no suprise that a lot of people are killed because of this. Some might be civiliians (it is not a traditional war after all). If you point a automatic weapon at a crowd, the odds that you hurt lots of people is much higher.
A better solution would be that the US invasion force would have to keep to laws like police would have to, but having less lethal weapons might be a working alternative.
The gui of a prius is not logically to put in neutral.
The (automatic-electronic) shift lever looks like this
R | N--X | . . | D.. B
(r=reverse, N=neutral D=drive, X=position it always is in when you do not control it, B=mountain)
Normally you never put it in neutral. To put it in neutral you have to put the lever 3 seconds into N before it works. Because you always move past the N setting into Drive or Reverse. To park there is a park button. Neutral is somthing you never need unless pulled through a car-wash.
In emergency cases putting it in neutral you could push the Park button, but it is nothing that is naturally. Because you normally only use that button when in complete stand-still.
An other thing you could do in a runaway vehicle is turn it off. However the Power button works like a PC power button, when driving it does not work. You will have to press it several seconds to turn the car of while driving. (Power steering and break-enhancement will turn off, so this should only be a last resort). This is also something you will never do under normal circumstances, and most people will not be aware of this.
The solutions should be user-training. -How to put the car in neutral (and the manual warns never to put the car in neurtral because the HV battery is not charged in that case. This complicates matters, and there are already enough beeps in a prius). -Test an emergency break. You should be aware how a car handles in extreme conditions. -Turn the car of when driving. (And note that power-breaking and powersteering is missing then!!!!) -Test all cases of the cruise control. Cruise control give very little feedback in a prius II and steve jobs also noted some errors in the latest model.
