At a gas station it doesn't take you long to fill your tamk. Charging an electric vehicle takes a lot longer so theres less turnover. (Perhaps even all day, or at least all 8 hrs of a shift)
Smokers should be charged much higher premiums for health insurance. Former smokers should be charged slightly more than they are That will encourage them to quit. Never-smokers could recieve lower premiums.

Except that a Bitcoin generating rig costs considerably more than a fan heater.
So if you put a big enough satellite at L1, it will shade the planet andreduce global warming.
You'd need to make it out of graphene so it would be light enough.
If you made it like a venetian blind you couldcontrol the amount of sunlight the earth recieves. Close the blinds when its daytime in asia, open them again when its daytime in the americas. You could rule the world [evil laugh]
I use Seamonkey for most of the critical stuff like online banking and also for Email. (on my previous machine I used Thunderbird for Email, but I figured that since I had Seamonkey running anyway I might as well use the mail section of it.
For general browsing (like/. ) I still use FF
I don't use Chrome, and I don't hsve a Google or GMail account.
I don't think that anywhere the annual flu vaccine is required by law. Even for people who work in healthcare. And this seasons shot wasn't worth a tin of shit.
Still the insurance paid for it, and I got a free klondike bar at work.

The Apple ][ was a long time ago, but not the 1800's - more like 1980.
It will look so much like the real McCoy, they will be able to use it in the next Star Trek film
It makes sense when you're going to thecoldest planet in the solar system, to arrive in summer.
Still pretty far away
Agreed, Li means Lithium
While we have enemies that are nuclear armed superpowers, boomers will not become obsolete.
However TFA was talking about the Virginia class, which are attack subs, not SLBM platforms.

One thousand Kilograms should be called a Megagram, not a Tonne .
I want my next desktop xomputer to have an OS designed for desktops, not phones
I am happy with Android on my phone
I wouldn't try tasting a comet - your tongue would stick to it
Maybe the Republicans will support this so that their friends in the oil and gas companies can exploit it.
So what is Jon Stewart going to be doing now?

Is that the temperature the CPU will run at?
