AWG is so obvious and provable the CRU REFUSED to release data for 7 years
What data?
The data that was given to them by the copyright holding national weather bureaus of several countries under the condition that they only use it for their analysis and don't give it out to other parties.
Island (and coastal) property in general remains very attractive — even among the staunchest alarmists.
Hey moron - you are aware that this villa is 2 miles inland, 500 feet above sea level? By admitting this will soon be beach property, you confirm AGW. You fail again.
Neat how the RWNJ's are ignoring the part where that's talking about prosecuting companies
Distinction without difference. The First Amendment protects us all.
There are quite a lot of exceptions to the 1st you glibertarians obviously don't know about. Including laws against false advertisement. The 1st also isn't defence against charges of fraud. All could be used against your co-shitheads.
But I think the fairest analogy would be this: I'd conclude that Bill Nye is as much a scientist as Sarah Palin is a politician.
That would be utterly unfair towards Nye. Palin fails or barely passes most definitions (with positive or negative connotations) of a politician apart from "(former) office holder".
She could have been cut off and really said he's as much a scientist as she is a vice president. Which would actually be more accurate and a bit meaner.
Or Governor - remember she quit to run for VP.
Actually, she quit half a year after losing that election.
He is not authoritative he the field he is talking about.
Errm - you are aware that Palin's rant came in response to a clip from 'the anti-climate change film "Climate Hustle" ' where a climate denier interviewed Nye seemingly as an expert on climate science and got his ass handed back very politely?
A scientist is someone who seeks to find the truth via the scientific process. Bill Nye is not this.
Well, Sarah Palin most certainly isn't this. She isn't even that. She's just a professional liar who quit her job as Governor of Alaska because it was too hard for her. Yet tried to become Vice President - because that can't be as hard.
So you make up stuff based on truthiness. Big news - in lack of evidence people often make errors of several orders of magnitude, mostly because their brain is dazed with hatred.
Actually, it was just a cost of $5,37. See I can pull numbers from your ass too.
The $100 mln figure appears in delt0r's post above. I now realize, he said "if". The actual number is likely much bigger, actually — otherwise Apple would've been glad to publish it...
Yeah, sorry, it was only $3,49. Stop making up stuff, boy.
Doesn't this number sound a little high? They've recovered 61 million pounds of material?
Older iphones weighed about 5 ounces, so let's say 3 phones per pound.
This means they've recycled 183 million iphones?
How many iphones actually get recycled? I know I still have all of mine (actually my kids have them)
I'm calling BS
What makes you think this is only iPhones? Didn't you even read the whole summary?
Experimental program not instantly profitable? Say it isn't so!
So, is the experiment a success in your opinion? They've extracted a total of about $52 million dollars worth of material for the cost of $100 million.
Actually, it was just a cost of $5,37. See I can pull numbers from your ass too.
That's the cost of following the law, being nice to environment is a side effect. Apple, as a device manufacturer is under *obligation* to recycle their phones, as long as they want to sell them in 700+ million market called Europe.
Here is quick summary of ROHS 2002/95/EC and WEEE 2002/96/EC directives: https://lwn.net/Articles/68380...
Others follow that law by sending their stuff to Africa or China. That's lower cost.
Lets hope it's not like the phone industry. I want a phone with a physical keyboard but where can I find one? Thanks to Apple those corporate assholes assume everyone likes typing on a touch screen.
Yeah right - they stopped making phones with "real" (IOW tiny) keyboards because Apple convinced them, not because they didn't sell as well as ones copying the iPhone.
But that's not true really: they still sell phones with keyboards, it's just that people like you still don't buy them.
Finally, Apple has done away with the last advantage Microsoft had left.
You completely ignored that it finally also has a "Prt Scr/Sys Req"-key - how could Mac users live without it. More importantly: how could the people installing Linux on their MacBooks do?
Didn't work on the phone in question. See, you gotta keep people alive to use that technique, "shoot first, then ask questions" has been proven to not give many useful answers.

It occurs to me you are too stupid to even understand how wrong or even why you are wrong.
Miami has been flooding every year since before there was a city there.
http://m1.i.pbase.com/o6/21/57...
Yes. And now it's flooding on a sunny day without much wind, not caused by a major hurricane. Just because.(*)
(*) Well, because sea level rise caused by Global Warming.

There are several species of nematode that are more qualified than Sarah Palin.
Even as a politician. And a "family values" mother.
Now it's controversial to be skeptical about what the weatherman says.
I've lived too long.
Absolutely not - especially since many prominent "sceptics" are weathermen.
"If people are putting profits ahead of human lives and the greater good then they should be punished."
What kind of marxist nonsense is that? Profit -is- for human lives and the greater good.
I'm sure the Nazi death camps made a profit with all the forced labor and the harvested gold teeth.
"But did Bill Nye really say that all deniers should be charged?"
No one said "all". It should be "none".
Did you just claim that "deniers" should never be charged of any crimes, just because you guys are so special snow-flakes?

Even more amazingly, the mockup shows that the new Macbooks will come with Windows keys! http://s3.amazonaws.com/digita...

Curses!
There is no such thing as a 100% secure platform. Every time someone makes such a boast the system gets hacked - usually very publicly.
Sounds like it's a lot cheaper to boast about your platform instead of paying bug bounties, doesn't it?
It seems to be cheaper to boast about paying bug bounties than to actually make your system secure.
Burr and Feinstein that is.
The right way is to have an office of the judicature maintain a set of third party keys that law enforcement can request *with a warrant*.
Problem those keys will leak and become public. It happened with physical keys, it will happen more easily with binary keys that can be just copied.
Still unlocks ALL phones.
Didn't work on the phone in question. See, you gotta keep people alive to use that technique, "shoot first, then ask questions" has been proven to not give many useful answers.
You know we would never lie to you....
You KNOW that
What's your point? That the FBI couldn't unlock the phone? Or that you believe the FBI as long as you like what they claim?
So the someone who could afford the hosting was the taxpayer, without being asked for the kindness.
What's the purpose of an university funded by taxpayers? The FREE EXCHANGE of information.
So according to you, universities should host anything for free, including child pornography. You are everybody's hero.
