Realistically speaking there is practically NOTHING that can be done about it. Unless a dictator conquers the planet and rules with an iron fist (not what I would want!) the chances of reducing carbon emissions radically enough to make a difference is practically zero.
That's a very good point. Ask a MacOS user what version of Mach he/she is running and I doubt they'd be able to tell you. For that matter it's the same for the windows kernel too.
But...But...bitcoin is going nowhere. Nobody uses it and it's worthless. This story contradicts my brainwashed grey matter that's been given the meme that virtual currency will never amount to anything!
Although I agree that Samsung might have been considering iphone like designes before the iphone came out, one has to consider if Samsung's designs were based on what they saw when Apple came to them for manufacturing as opposed to when it was released.
Samsung would have known the design of the iphone FAR before the release date due to the fact that they had to manufacture it.
Not that it detracts from viewing it, but lets be clear. Enterprise was NEVER intended to go into space without retrofitting it which after costs was considered prohibitive. It was cheaper to build Atlantis than to retrofit Enterprise which tells you something about how "space" worthy it really was.
Enterprise was critical for flight testing in the atmosphere before Columbia launched.
The moon would make a nice stable platform for launching nukes toward earth. Sure, we would have some time once they launched but that's small comfort.
Those who have the high ground in warfare win. The Moon is the ultimate high ground in that regard when it comes to space based attacks.
" There is no mechanism to enforce the 1967 Outer Space Treaty except for a given country’s unwillingness to undergo international opprobrium. Moreover, a country can withdraw from the treaty at will. China tends to do what it wants to do, unless the economic or political price is perceived to be too high. The potential of the Moon and cislunar space may outweigh their sense of geopolitical risk or concern about international ostracism."
BS. It would not be that hard to launch a nuke towards a lunar pole. Dark side might be a little more difficult since I'm assuming once you launch it would be hard to change the trajectory.
Plus...
Other than killing/destroying whatever is at the pole, detonating a nuke there would have no real consequences here on earth like fallout.
The fact of the matter is, it continues to exist and continues to be used DESPITE people saying that it's useless and will collapse and never be used again.
Despite all the naysayers (and I DON'T own any bitcoins) the supply continues to expand. One has to acknowledge the reality of what is actually happening with the currency vs what one thinks or would like to happen. (well, you don't have to but that's another argument)
The probabilities are related to location. How many people died in other earthquakes? Many, few...depending on how and where.
When it comes to natural disasters I try not to put myself in places that have a high probability (for long lengths of time) that producing something that could kill me. what "high" is tends to be subjective. I'm just using what USGS says as a baseline.
Fact of the matter is the whole freaking area is WAY overdue for a huge earthquake of the proportions that crashed and burned the city at the start of the 20th century. Until that occurs I have to wonder about putting my family in danger.
Sure, there is danger everywhere but ask any Geologist about the chances of a major earthquake in San Francisco and it's definitely not trivial.
Sure, many people would still get the ripped version, but I'd bet a large amount of people if they COULD GET a legitimate copy even with some ads in the video stream would.
Of course, how you have ads that cover everybody worldwide is another story. I suppose if it were for something like Coke that would be easy since it's sold everywhere.

Actually, discovering that the whole planet has a layer of GOLD just under the surface might motivate people to invest in the space program....
The only thing propping up each party is it's opposition to the other.
If either party had total control of everything for an extended period (10 years) it would be a disaster.
Democrats should FEAR the destruction of the Republican party. Without somebody to point fingers at people realize the emperor has no clothes.
Same goes for the Republicans.
The lesser of two evils is still evil.
If you vote for the lesser of the two you've still enabled evil. It does not make you a better person for choosing "lesser" evil.
I refuse to vote for evil period. It's not my civic duty to choose which set of corporations get government help from political cronies.
Actually it was 3 branches guarding against the other two AND the States/Federal Government checking each other.
That second part was gutted about 100 years ago.
Corporations 1 billion
Individuals -50
The score would of been the same no matter which side won.

Why use a drone? They could just as easily use an F22 or F117 to take him out. Cruise missile would be effective as well.
It's like constitutionality and the supreme court. What the court says is constitutional IS constitutional, regardless of what anybody else thinks.
The same applies here (except for the fact that a higher court can say otherwise).
I don't want somebody knowing who I'm looking up so I downloaded the entire DNS and dumped it into my /etc/hosts file. I feel so safe now....

Is MS's proposals patented?
Not sure if Google's are or if MS has already said they would not patent it, but I'd be surprised if MS DID'NT make sure their proposal was patented.

yea, but a good set of engineers could see what Apple was building if Samsung had the parts even prior to full assembly at a place like FOXCONN

The tickets sold out in under 30 minutes. I seriously doubt that if it was live video streamed the seats would be empty. Same for Apple events.
Stop the video blackout of these events!

Can we change

And I thought "focus" was what I needed! Thanks! I'm pouring the methylphenidate down the toilet. Wandering mind here I come! No effort needed.
