There is one problem with your comment: Objects *don't* generally fall downward. They fall towards the centre of the mass producing the gravity. There is a difference.
At the local community college here they have those in one or two of the men's rooms. They don't work well. The odour of ammonia rising from them is always very strong. I do my best to avoid those washrooms.
Regarding the budget, that happens at a local community college. End of the year we where hunting around trying to come up with stuff to consume the left over cash.
I've seen this tactic before. The 'collection agency' in question barely even exists, and certainly has no teeth. It's simply a very shady tactic, used by several magazines, to trick people into subscribing - sometimes they'll even send these notices to people who have never subscribed. Just garbage the letter and you'll be fine.
Couple of issues. You're thinking of feudal government, for one. That wasn't everywhere - in fact 'democracy' was invented in ancient Athens.
Life has never been so short that most people died before they where twenty. A lot of numbers regarding average lifespan are skewed by a much higher rate of infant mortality. The historical truth is that most people would have lived into their sixties, providing they survived infancy.
Regarded unprecedented level of peace and prosperity, that is profoundly incorrect. Rome enjoyed a great deal of peace and prosperity, and in ancient times many romans worked a total of three hours a day, even the poor. Stability of government contributes a great deal, however stable governments have appeared many times before.
Do remember, Shakespeare himself merely adapted the story of Pyramis and Thisbe to his time. That myth predated Romeo and Juliet by, oh, sixteen hundred years...
*cough* It's called money. You give it to the company in exchange for things. Because of that, they owe me. I paid them money to get the functionality I wanted, they are now indebted to me for my hard fought income.
The mistake that drives me nuts the most is people confusing quiet and quite. More often than not, when they mean to say quiet, they'll type it as quite.
There's another group whose sweat made billions. They where coal miners, and the person they made those billions for? Mr. John D. Rockefeller Jr. It's not because they're geeks that they're exploited and forced into slavery. It's because of greed of their fellow man. The only effective solution is the union.

Corps, not core.
Something that isn't getting mentioned, HP sold off it's test equipment business some time ago. That was a real core of what made HP great.
The scary part is that I can understand what you wrote:)
Perhaps, but the magazine can't attract any advertisers without subscribers to see the ads.

According to what I've read, the first death star required 24 hours to recharge prior to firing.
Great scott! That just sounded like a scene from star trek!
What about academic journals?

It appears the management of sony is still rather foolish, and thus the market has become their enemy.

The red free exchange of want-ads? I didn't know they had a specific colour.
Hard for it to run out of fuel before it's even launched. RTFA.
Even a dummy ICBM isn't free.

I do beleive it could also work as an adjective.
There is no such word as 'disgracement'. Use either disgrace or embarassment.

amazing, just amazing. Is this intended to be a joke? Cause it ain't funny, pal.
The employee also has the right to organize, and strike. Sometimes, quitting isn't a luxury people can afford.
But, the modern tech worker finds himself ONCE AGAIN in the position of having to fight for an eight hour workday!
