did you factor in this vs the fuel economy of an inferior donut tire, plus the fuel wasted by towing cars that don't have spares, or the fuel wasted by driving to the tire store? (Though honestly, getting them online will have you spending less and getting a better quality tire, then wal-mart will put them on for about $13/tire.)
Twitter's own facebook app "redistributes" your tweets by posting them to facebook, which is the exact same thing. Only it adds extra blank vertical screen-real-estate-wasting space that ifttt's version doesn't.
"if somebody says something I don't like, they should lose their constitutional rights".
And people wonder why Congress, the police, and judges don't respect constitutional rights. Because of emotional reactions like yours. Even prisoners in prison retain their first amendment rights.
Yes, but without compasses, we'd still have a sense of what north was, contrary to what the person I originally replied to with "we don't need no stinkin' compasses" said. It would just be fuck-all harder to figure it out sometimes. But we'd know the concept:)
GPSes point north to the truth north, which is determined by rotation. I know I left out an intermediary step in my statement, but you're supposed to be able to infer it.
A compass only points to the magnetic north and south. The geographic north and south that we all actually use on our maps and GPSes is based on the rotation of the earth, and could be determined simply by observing sunup/sundown times internationally (and realizing the earth is round).
Fire allowed us to eat more and eat better. So that research, you COULD eat. Go back to the drawing board, you really had a good thing going until your specific meataphor:D
Keep that tinfoil hat on. There's a reason anonymous is described as "coward". Crawl out under that rock and stop being a pussy. Are you so scared of being counted?
Now of course this is all in my own subjective opinion, but:
specifically such radiation, but generally not. Definitions are fuzzy. And I think that specificity is based on the tradition of the archaic meaning of it as an observable phenomenon. Science considers visible light a subset of all light....And Merriam-Webster -- although it is my favorite of the dictionaries -- doesn't define science. Probably a good thing..... Supersonic sounds that only cats hear: I guess it's not sound because we don't hear it? Too arbitrary. I consider these words to be labels for physical phenomenon, not labels for conscious observations. Before science these words had a scientified basis, they were just labels for experiences. But after science, we learned the phenomenon that causes them, and that became the truer definition. NASA puts up space sounds to hear.;) In sound's case, I believe 1c superceded 1b. In light's case, 1a superceded 1b, first specifically, then later more generally (as we discovered the wavelengths we can see are completely arbitrary, and a subset). An alien (or another earth species) comes along with eyes that see a different range: Does this change what light is? Is light just what human's see? If an animal sees a wavelength of light that we don't, is it no longer light? Just electromagnetic radiation....
So... sounds like AM waves are as much light as visible light is. Our sensory organs don't define the true nature of something, which is true regardless of whether us humans observe or comprehend it.
It is still true that it is currently legal to yell fire in a crowded theatre. So as long as anyone continues to say "you can't yell fire in a crowded theatre", I will continue to point out that that law was only on the books for 50 years.
BTW, I go to 1000+ person shows that have a single exit all the frickin' time.
I get 25mpg on highways, but when I go yardsaleing, it's more like 12mpg. Really depends on the type of drive -- it's a 50% difference in just my one vehicle (car computer is helpful). For a car with only a 40 mile range, I'd think the driving would not be as much highway driving, but maybe that's a silly way to mentally model the situation. I dunno how India works:)
If I pay $3.50 in gas, I get to go 20 miles. About 50 kilometers (VERY roughly, but gas prices fluctuate so much, the cost is close enough).
If this thing is a penny a kilometer, that would be 50 cents.
What's worse: Burning a gallon of gasoline -- which also has to be electrically pumped -- or just the electricity to pump. 50 cents worth of electricity, if that. (Some of that money would be filling station overhead, and not just electricity.)
Or maybe we should just give up progress until someone comes up with free unlimited energy?
My question was why are they not killed at EVERY concert. The difference is the acts of the individual. Your model has people following so closely that if someone in front of them stops, they trip over them. That is unreasonable, and the responsibility for that is on the individual. Almost every stadium and concert venue has 1000+ people passing through at least one small doorway, and of course people sometimes trip. Yet, people dying is not normal, because normal people are reasonable in their actions. When a real fire happens, I'd expect someone to possibly die, because there is a legitimate rush. But when there is no real fire, and you do it, YOU are the asshole, not the guy who said a falsehood that you kill someone over an *assumption* of. There's a lot you seem to drop in your responses, like a real fire vs a fake fire, or the fact that I mentioned *every* rock concert, not *one or two*.
has eventually failed after I've spilled water on it. Wireless keyboards. I gave them good on the 5 year warranty replacement, though. Every set was replaced 2 or 3 times. Got my money's worth. But to me, that does not meet any definition of "waterproof". That's something that would impress me.
You might care if I knocked you over just to get one person ahead... It's kinda like the jerk who cuts you off in traffic just to be one car ahead at the next red light, except with more chance of injury for you.

They're trying to trick dyslexics into paying $96!
2) Same tire online sent to your house, then you drive and get it balanced, will tend to save you a pretty penny.

especially if your data isn't world-public, so a random search engine can't crawl it?

hehehehehehheheh :) Nice.
So... sounds like AM waves are as much light as visible light is. Our sensory organs don't define the true nature of something, which is true regardless of whether us humans observe or comprehend it.
Are AM radio waves comprised of photons?
Can you point to an accepted reference that states that sound stops at a specific frequency?

'Tis a shame. But you can't run a car on that yet.

Using your physics, it's a wonder people aren't killed at every rock concert, where the entire crowd pushes forward toward the stage.
