The LUX detector (Large Underground Xenon) is designed to pick up signs of weakly interacting massive particles, or WIMPs, when they engage in one of their rare interactions with normal matter.
There are indeed other candidates for dark matter, WIMPs being only one of those. This experiment searched specifically for WIMPs, which only rules them out, while of course the other remaining candidates remain to be explored.
So should Facebook be required to hire less-qualified persons just to fit a certain quota? Is there some sort of proof that somehow shows FB is intentionally not hiring minorities?
My FB lit up with people talking about the sonic boom, wondering wtf it was, lol! I just figured it was something I hadn't read about yet, and you've solved that for me, haha.
Skipping this generation (is this part of the XBone/PS4 gen still?) in lieu of rebuilding my gaming PC up to reasonable standards [for a gamer]. Actually have not been gaming as much as I used too, wondering if I'm finally outgrowing it at 32...?
Sadly, I agree. I'd already jumped ship to Vivaldi when it first came out early last year, but have given it up recently for stability and profile-syncing reason...but I didn't go back to Opera, I'm on FF for now, only until Vivaldi matures a bit more. The news about being bought by a Chinese consortium did it for me -__-
Why would anyone pay $600M for something with annual revenues of $460M? Best hopes of 5 years to recover the investment, but more likely 10 or more years? That makes no sense.
It's actually pretty popular in Europe and I'd imagine other parts of the East. I'm sure that's what is being taken into account here.
From what I just read on Wikipedia about Plex (not at all familiar with it otherwise), Subsonic would be a lot less fully-featured in comparison. From what I gather, Plex is a fork of the old XBMC? Something like a complete media center? Subsonic is more focused on streaming your own music library (and making podcasts, video is supported too). Someone will correct me, if I'm wrong, I'm sure. HUGE Subsonic fan here:)
Um, wot? The Senate and The House of Representatives are the two houses of "Congress," and neither can pass a law without the other. Need clarification. I do agree about pardoning Snowden, though.
Was going to say the same thing. Perhaps GP means "the latter is within the domain of the House," though as pla has noted below, they all fall under the executive branch.
No doubt, I use both (macports and homebrew) to add goodies and also use zsh. Their terminal just is different than Konsole (and whatever Gnome uses). After years of X11, copy-and-paste is a hassle on OS X, but I've grown accustom too it, no doubt. Still, just not the same.
I've found this to be the case EXACTLY. Great for everyday stuff sans CLI. My workplace bought me a MacBook Pro recently, and while it's a phenomenally powered and beautiful machine, it does not hold a candle AT ALL to the power of Linux CLI. Maybe part of that is having grown up on Linux CLI, but the fact remains, in my case of course.
The US government has shoveled billions of dollars to AT&T, Time Warner, and Comcast for services which were never delivered and the government did nothing. The same government's courts also banned people from coming together and building municipal broadband services to compete with them. Yes, what a huge failure of the free market.
Simple to make that CLEAR distinction, you'd think. Not sure why so many people miss this -- most likely regurgitating some political point heard from someone with a vested interest in making Libertarianism look bad.
I'm not so purely Libertarian that I can't appreciate the necessary regulations on certain things. My issue is with corporations and government being buddy-buddy, back-room deals and laws being drawn up to benefit only certain corporations, limiting the freedom of others to get into the market and provide whatever service they'd like at whatever price the market would allow. The ISP industry (and by extension the phone industry) is just a perfect example of how monopolies are created with fucking crony shit going on in Washington over the past several decades.
Wow I had to look up what you were even referring too...remind me to not even visit the UK ever. I want no part of that type of thinking by their authorities.
Go-to email client back when I used a client. Ever since I started running my own mail server, found it much easier to just use a webmail client (Roundcube). And have been forced into Outlook (webmail) for work so, unfortunately there's not much of a place for it these days as far as my use goes. Wasn't a bad application though, and definitely would use it under any other circumstance. Would be interesting to see it leave Mozilla.
I'm in using uBlock & uMatrix. What do you use? Something with more granularity might help. There are a couple forbes subdomains I need to allow in uMatrix, but none that are on a blacklist (for ad horseshit, etc.)
B/c Apple desires to do business in a foreign country and as such must pander to that country's gov't, they should do the same here where there are actual constitutional rights at stake?

...Presumably Facebook will follow basic crypto protocol if they're at all serious about end-to-end encryption.
And there-in lies the conundrum, sadly. One can only hope...though I've also not read the provided whitepaper which probably answers this for us so...

Just here for a "me three." Love Subsonic! Sadly, don't know that anyone else could even set it up other than nerds.

Hahahaha, I immediately had the same exact internal conflict with this, lmao!

Except crony capitalism is rampant, and so it is not a truly free market.
Exactly! I don't understand why browsers these days like to hide choice from the user, smh. Luckily, there's a Vivaldi for that now.

SOOOOO much this.
Exactly. You'd have to be pretty obtuse not to recognize this. Probably why the OP posted AC.

When there's StartPage DuckDuckGo? Why though?
