Most politicians change their "views" (or at least what they communicate) every other year, they just pretend that they have always believed what they do today.
You don't need an asteroid to shoot a tracker into those orbits. The tracker being "on" the asteroid doesn't change anything, as its gravity is practically zero. It's not like you can "hitchhike" an asteroid, you have to match its speed before landing.
Indeed it is. If they bribed congress members to vote against the bill, that would be corruption. What they are doing is just a one day blackout to raise awareness, which is a completely different thing, and I fail to see anything immoral in it. They don't ask politicians not to support it, they ask the people not to support the politicians supporting it, and the same people can decide to ignore that message.
The problem is that American laws already affect foreign sites. The US won't hesitate disrupting the Internet if it serves its perceived economical interests.
Because it's so very democratic when the congress of one nation writes the rules affecting the whole Internet? The userbase of these corporations represent the global Internet community much better.
Your content cannot be displayed by Twitter unless you're one of their partners. How you get to be a partner is left to your imagination. We have no visibility into it.
Sure you have: you have to create a Twitter account, and after that you can post whatever content (although calling tweets content is a bit of a stretch) you damn well please.
I don't think awarding the copyright holder more than they have lost is a good practice, as then they could make more by legal means then by simply selling the licences, creating an incentive to transform from a content creating company into a legal one. I think the copyright holder should get exactly the price of the licence, and the infringer should be fined 3x the price as a deterrent.
We all knew that Apple was planning something evil, and this is the start of it. Once they can get the majority of the world's leaders to become reliant on their apps and devices, they can influence their decisions however they please, thus gaining control over the world. And noone will try to stop them, as all the sheeple just laugh at me when I try to explain it to them!
"In the simplest of terms, a QR code is a 2D barcode that can store data which can then be read by smart phone users. The data is an easy way to direct a user to a particular website with a simple scan of the QR code, but it could also just as easily be a link to a malicious website."
If visiting a "malicious site" can harm your phone, switch to a secure browser. Unless you are locked into Safari, then you are screwed.
US experts analysed blood samples from 104 healthy people with an average age of 87 who had few known risk factors for Alzheimer's.
They found those who had more vitamin B, C, D and E in their blood performed better in tests of memory and thinking skills. People with high levels of omega 3 fatty acids - found mainly in fish - also had high scores. The poorest scores were found in people who had more trans fats in their blood.
So they found that certain vitamins are beneficial to memory, but as none of their test subjects had Alzheimers there is no basis for any claim regarding the disease. Although I am curious what's in the actual paper (seriously, couldn't we wait a few days posting this until the actual paper is out?).

In my experience Win7 doesn't need more resources than XP, maybe a bit more HDD space.

predestines you to a political viewpoint.
It's in Russia's sphere of influence, the hands of the US are tied.

It's not cheap anymore if you have to go up for it.
Why do you need an asteroid for that? You can just put a probe in the same orbit whenever you like, it's not like an asteroid makes that any easier.
And it's something else than just corruption.

Ban the entire Internet and only enforce it when they please. How do you think SOPA will work?
The problem is that most seasoned internet users have already grown an adblock in their brain that will filter it out.
And then the next law will simply ban alternative DNSes. Encrypting the whole web is impractical

You have to admit that it's a name much more fitting...
Most healthy people parking in those spots already have forged handicap cards, or real ones by bribing a doctor.

Banning one sort of technology in favor of another? Of course Edison would have LOVED it!
Well it wouldn't be that bad, luckily they are muslims so we could still drink.
if the internet providers are aiding and abetting terrorism
The problem is, they are asking questions like that, just look at ACTA or SOPA.

Also, if it's a government ontract that automatically adds a 10x multiplier to software costs.

The word you are looking for is FPS. Wargame is a strategy genre.
