I wonder how hard it will be to play these games on a Steam Machine. The quantity of Linux games available will make a big difference in the success or failure of that project.
People tend to vent there anger on small engines toward 2 strokes but really aside from string trimmers, weed eaters, and pole saws/chainsaws, there is very little in the way of 2 stroke use (in the US).
So...except for the hundreds of thousands of two stroke engines polluting our air every day, there are barely any two stroke engines?
How often does someone break into a bank vault? Almost never. When someone "robs a bank" they're just taking a couple thousand bucks from a teller drawer, which is negligible.
When someone steals real money from a bank, it is insured by the FDIC.
The Pacific Electric Streetcars went out of business because they were slow, expensive, and unprofitable. The stretch from downtown LA to Santa Monica averaged 13 mph. That was good compared to your options in 1905. By the 1930s, it was horribly slow.
Imposing emissions standards on lawncare equipment solves a real problem.
Banning two stroke engines would do so much for our air quality. I have read that Briggs & Stratton have a lot of clout in Congress and have worked to shoot down multiple attempts at regulating small engines.
I recall correctly, the original creator invested a large number of bitcoins in the SilkRoad
Umm...no. The ~1 million bitcoins that are believed to have been mined by the Bitcoin Satoshi Nakamoto have not been involved in any transactions since Satoshi disappeared in early 2011.
He's 64 and hasn't had a job in 10 years, so I doubt he's going to a lot of job interviews anyway.
But he spent his career doing high security work for the government. Those jobs don't like the idea of you sitting on $600M worth of untraceable currency.
The evidence definitely is clear that there's something wrong with the US car industry if it hasn't had a new player enter the market in the past century and stay in business for more than a few years.
Musk is saying that the something wrong is independent dealers, which is not very clear- but fits his issue at hand.
They had GM's money to invest, but it was pretty independent for a while.
That's what makes it not count for Musk's question. A startup gets new investor capital and builds something from scratch. Saturn was built on GM's foundation of money and experience.
They have hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash on hand and nobody withdraws that much in cash. When you close an account, you get a cashiers check.
I don't know what you understand under socialist and dictatorship, but these 2 terms are mutually exclusive. USSR was fascist.
By the textbook definition of Socialism, it is incompatible with Dictatorship. But plenty of countries that call themselves Socialist do have dictators. The most famous would be North Korea. Venezuela under Chavez qualifies, and it seems like the new guy is continuing that.
My point is that there is an inverse relationship between the amount of regulation and the instances of massive fraud. Don't point to Bernie Madoff and assume that he was operating under the same rules as a commercial bank.

Most people want their primary device to have a screen larger than an inch across.
It is not in Valve's interest to make it easy for you to play GOG games.

Why would you want to duplicate all of the processing power that your phone already has?
Those come out next year.
Except Mt.Gox was never a bank,
Yet somehow they possessed 6% of all the bitcoins in existence.
But your fantasy of the the vault all bitcoin is stored in being raided - that has never happened.
6% of all of the bitcoins in existence got stolen a few weeks ago. It was merely the highest profile in a string of huge robberies.
They were a private company which was sold to a front company funded by GM, Firestone and big oil who had vested interests in selling cars/buses,
Yes. And if that company had been profitable, it would not have been for sale. At the time, buses had huge advantages over electric streetcars.

The impact is way, way worse with bitcoin.

They've failed. 2 stroke engines have a maximum allowed displacement which is progressing steadily down. Down to weedeaters today.
They've succeeded in continuing to sell 2 stroke weedeaters that produce more smog than a Hummer.

Saturn was never a "startup". It was always a subsidiary/brand of GM.

That would make it a messy, cluttered garden- not a walled one.
Yes kids android IS a walled garden, go ahead and install a new hardware driver in your phone
The standard definition of "walled garden" is that the user can only install approved, signed, applications. That is not the case with Android.
No. No, it doesn't.
When was the last time that a customer of a US bank requested a withdraw and was refused because the bank didn't have the funds available?
