What you say about driver safety could also be said about surveillance : why use V2X when you have cameras and computing/CV? Sensors and communications can work together, both for safety and for surveillance.
The waste disposal is not that big of a problem. The thing however is that we may not want to dispose of them. Plutonium for instance may prove extremely valuable, it already is somehow.
I wouldn't but that's because it is a kinda boring small city in Japan, not because of the radiation. Living in Japan is not for everyone. It isn't a good tourist place either, however, don't hesitate to go to Matsushima, it is not that far from Fukushima and it is a very nice place.
At least, there is a lot of work involved in a HD remake. From a technical standpoint, it is almost as hard as making a new game. What I hate is when they just run the old game in an emulator without even adjusting the controls, like with the iOS version of FF7.
In fact I've seen somewhere that the.22LR is actually good for self defense. Reason is : to be effective with a handgun, it is important to train regularly. The.22LR, being cheap and plentiful, make is more likely for people to do the necessary training than with more expensive rounds. Inexperienced shooters are also more likely to flinch with bigger rounds. And yes, a.22LR is quite lethal. There are plenty of people who could have testified if they were still alive.

And they tend to be more and more demanding, enough to drive off a few website owners. And if Google thinks your site is abusive in some way, it will be considered "low quality" and your search engine ranking will suffer, among with other penalties.
No he didn't. Stop generalizing. He showed us surveillance from the NSA. How they did MITM attacks in unsecured parts of networks behind SSL gateways, how they may (or may not) have planted a backdoor in an already dubious random number generator, how they analyze plaintext data (like metadata). Basically, how they do their spying. I also think it is safe to assume they have all the exploit arsenal that blackhats have. Mandatory backdoors and subpoenas are a legal thing, so for this part, you should read the law instead of Snowden's stories. And while the government may abuse its right to spy, it is still doing it within a legal framework.
Low frequencies carry less energy per unit of amplitude. So to charge a phone with a 5-10 Hz frequency, you need something really loud. Loud enough for you to feel it through your body and to rattle things.
Additionally, because of impedance mismatch, low frequencies are hard to transmit through air, that's why subwoofers are so big and powerful.
There are no POSIX compliant linux or BSD distros. Partly because no one wants to pay for the certification.They are still mostly compatible. As for systemd, POSIX doesn't specify the init system so a linux distro using it is not less POSIX than one using initd. Systemd however relies on linux-specific features like cgroups, so you won't be able to use it on all POSIX systems.
I am not from Google and not in the US but I did something similar : living in a used RV for 5 years. It's impressive how fast you are saving money this way.
In the end I managed to buy a nice apartment downtown. Most of it paid upfront.

Donate to whom? And what if your wealth is in a non-liquid form? Like a company worth billions. Will you donate your company to people who don't know how to run it?
What may seem easy enough at a small scale become completely different when we are talking big : many people live off the rich guy's fortune.
Here is an example : imagine you have a good salary, and you really love meat. Everyday you go to you butcher and buy a nice steak, a bit expensive but you can make it. Now, you decide to donate half of your salary, so you can't buy that nice steak anymore. Your butcher will lose a client, he will be able to make it because you are just one guy but he is still a victim of your action. Now, imagine you are a billionaire and you have a personal chef. By donating most of your money, you'll then need to fire your chef, like most of the people who work for you. And if these now jobless people are also steak lovers, then, our butcher will suffer too, and because now there are several people, maybe he'll have to close shop.
You don't move billions without creating massive ripples through society.
Most of the rich actually don't show off. Sure, they like luxury and comfort : why stay cramped in economy class when you can go first class, or even book a private jet? Did you ever meet some rich people without knowing it at first? It is often quite an unsettling experience. You start talking with him like you talk with "normal" people, he is nice and interesting, nothing special about his appearance : maybe he has a watch you've never seen before, or well fit clothes, but nothing that catches the eyes. It is only quite a bit of time later that you notice that you just talked to the #2 of a fortune 500 company and that he owns several five star hotels.
Interestingly, in Thailand (at least in Bangkok), if you want to take a ride, you better make sure it is in a regulated taxi. Otherwise you are likely to pay at least double price, or worse.
and won't ask for tuition until the student finds a job post-graduation
What does this mean? Is it a disguised student loan? Putting aside the gender issues, are there more details about this? Depending on the fine print, this can be very bad. Maybe I am a bit paranoid but if there is a clause like "if you refuse some job offer, then you need to pay", that's bordering slavery.
It also depends on how you are reading. E-Readers are great when weight is a concern (i.e. traveling), or if you need search. Otherwise, there is nothing wrong with dead tree books. They, in fact, have many practical advantages : they are cheap, robust, last for centuries, require no power source, transferable, etc...
No matter how the rounding is made, as long as it is monotonous, a 4.5 star will always have a better rating than a 4 star. It is also obvious that ratings are relative. If 4-4.5 is average then so be it. Not very accurate but it gives you an idea.
The problem is who is behind the ratings. Shills are an obvious cause of bogus ratings, however, even honest reviews may be troublesome. A typical thing is that when looking at ratings, you are usually looking for the best. Conversely, reviewers tend to give 5 stars most of the time while punishing the movie they didn't like. As a result, you are more likely to find widely acceptable movies than really good ones. If you wondered why "The Shawshank Redemption" is on top of the IMDB 250 while you can think of plenty of better movies, you have your answer.
According to the author, the only real consequences of his relatively careless use of the internet are that he received targeted ads that could have been embarrassing in circumstances that didn't occur and he knows the real name of guy he met in person and exchanged personal phone numbers with... how frightening. If you worry about such things you are already a bit paranoid. And if you are paranoid about this but not about your privacy, then sure you are crazy. Not because you are not paranoid enough, but because you are inconsistent.
So, back then, because refrigerator where uncommon, people had to be creative and found various cooking techniques that improved conservation. For the same reason, local ingredients where likely to be preferred and seasons had to be observed. This resulted in a lot of diversity and interesting recipes. The refrigerator is certainly a big advance, so are modern sterilization techniques but it also lead to the hopelessly bland diet of many people today.
This is, in fact, the opposite. They expect more than amusement from video games.
The symphony orchestra have suffered from the disdain of classical music and classical music has suffered from snobs. It is a good thing we have films and video games to make people realize that, yeah, orchestral music can sound damn good. Same thing for classical music itself. I mean, who sincerely doesn't like Mozart or Beethoven? This is music accessible to anyone, so don't make it the stuff of "elites".
We always imagine great things at the slightest anomaly, only to find the boring truth later. Maybe it is just Jesus playing with a dimmer switch. Kids like to play with dad's things you know.
It is not really the point here but I hate it when I see "build X with $5" when you actually need at least $100 worth of junk that, somehow, every people must have. And that's not counting the tools.
Would it be possible to create an adblocker that loads all the ads but replaces them with beige squares just before they hit the framebuffer?
That's misses the point for most people. Few people are bothered by the ad itself. They want faster loading time, less tracking, no obstruction, etc... It's like replacing TV ads with a beige screen, I don't really hate TV ads, but I hate it when my program is interrupted.

That they miss their plane because their alarm clock failed.
