most people would think of "stab" or "slashing" with a knife. I never said the word "throw" but that doesn't really matter. Kevlar, commonly used in bullet-proof vests, is very susceptible to being sheared such as when stabbed or slashed with a knife
and this one appears to market bullet-proof vests. also talks about the difference between bullet and stab proof, and then goes further to say that having edged-weapon protection doesn't necessarily mean it has "spike" protection...such as for a needle or screwdriver.
you do realize that a bullet proof vest doesn't work well against knives even though a bullet contains a lot more force than a typical knife attack.
a similar idea applies to this bunker. yes it can take a nuclear blast, however that doesn't make it indestructible by any means. any determined foe with direct access to the facilities will eventually get in. the main thing that makes the bunker nuclear proof is really thick concrete, and that is rather simple to break up, heck we do it every day on various roads or buildings that we are replacing.
meanwhile everyone inside has nowhere to run. find the data cables and cut them, they have to connect to the outside world somewhere. Then let them stay in their own little prison until they decide to come out on their own.
everyone is angry when blizzard doesn't let people buy digital bits and a black market developes around buying and selling weapons and gold, because blizzard isn't catering to what they want.
and then people are equally angry when blizzard gives them what they want and provides an avenue for them to buy/sell their weapons and gold
the purpose is to drown out distraction, not be entertained, i just put the same song on repeat, occasionally switching to a new song when i need a different rhythm. my record is listening to the same song on repeat 8 hours a day for about 6 weeks straight.
after a few repeats i don't really hear the music anymore.
Plus apparently only 3 American's have ever defected
the list you are looking at is only for pilots. There are more on this list however it doesn't say whether they brought anything with them, or what happened to them.
the Soviet and Eastern bloc list is a bit more interesting read and mentions what some of them did after defecting, or if they died in a suspicious way.
or if you want a movie reference to back this up, how about humans can also defect on their own with large war machines...that is the basic Hunt for Red October lesson
you are so rich that the trunk of the car is too small to fit all your bags of money. so you need to spend extra money for the same car that everyone else is buying, so the car maker graciously put a fancy logo on it indicating they would allow you to pay more for that particular model.
I like amazon's service but they are indeed evil bastards in regards to their patents. it makes me feel conflicted because i don't want to reward them for being pricks.
mostly just saying that "defensive publications" are a joke. mutually assured destruction is a better strategy because then at least you can take down the other guy with you.
except you can't use those to threaten and counter sue and attempt to force them to drop their suit.
for an analogy...say you are a bully carrying a stick out to steal someones lunch money. you come across victim A who is holding up his backpack defensively...might as well take a few whacks at him, he can't do much to you, and maybe you will get lucky and his lunch money will fall out of his pockets...worse case you hit him too hard and your stick breaks
on the other hand you come up to victim B who also has a stick. now you have to consider whether you are the one that will get the beating. it is similar to the debate about guns, having your own stick puts you on equal footing to your aggressor.
no sane person would run an experiment like that untethered and strapped down so it absolutely can't move. presumably there would be many thousands of $$$ invested in that machine, you don't want it to crash and break and lose all the money you have invested in your device. so this video is fake.
the inventor himself even says the current prototype is only capable of thrust measured in milli-Newtons. it doesn't have enough thrust to lift itself off. so even if the video is real it isn't this device.
Q. Why does the EmDrive not contravene the conservation of momentum when it operates in free space? A. The EmDrive cannot violate the conservation of momentum. The electromagnetic wave momentum is built up in the resonating cavity, and is transferred to the end walls upon reflection. The momentum gained by the EmDrive plus the momentum lost by the electromagnetic wave equals zero. The direction and acceleration that is measured, when the EmDrive is tested on a dynamic test rig, comply with Newtons laws and confirm that the law of conservation of momentum is satisfied.
that just makes it sound like you are blowing into your own sail.
I agree with you. having business day only deliver is fine and all for businesses, but i am not a business! and i tend to not be available during business hours because i am working. and now i suppose i should stop browsing slashdot and get back to work...
i would have preferred they cut wednesday delivery, which i think they had discussed doing at one point.

low latency is often more important than network speed

Arguably all human genes are modified by man, especially those in a human
Apparently his DRM was faulty

Any system can be hacked. Having humans directly in the loop is the basic Wargames lesson.
and humans can be hacked also.
or if you want a movie reference to back this up, how about humans can also defect on their own with large war machines...that is the basic Hunt for Red October lesson
Mostly that it will happen sooner than we were expecting.
This is why we developed a VI mode in Emacs for you!
Can't you be happy running VI in Emacs?!
I believe it is...

how then do we convince the politicians that the process is broken and isn't working any longer?
i think amazon has pretty clearly shown they like beating up people for their lunch money.
haha, you think it is defensive!
how soon we forget "1-click"

Spyware could theoretically also use Tor nodes to report your real IP to authorities, or the *AA.
i fail to see how TOR will save us if the spyware/keylogger is installed on your computer.
But it doesn't work on vampires.
it is good in a short little clip, almost like a movie trailer, but i don't know if it would scale up well to a full length film.
and i think the short is missing an ominous eye watching at the end.

and for them it is mostly for bragging rights.
