... if they would be distinguishable from "biological" species. I.e. what if they genetically engineer bodies as a housing (kinda "reverse cyborg") and push that to the limit -> in the end you'll end up with a self-programming biological body which has its roots in highly advanced robotics and noone would be any the wiser.
antifoaming agent is the trick... and I wouldn't want to have that in my beer. Also nothing worse than getting a flat-looking beer. A good stiff foam crown is very important.
i.e. if a patent is not used in an actual product it will go invalid after a short amount of time. I think a year or two at most should be sufficient. Same should go for copyright obviously. If the owner is not interested in doing reprints then it should be allowed for others to do so.
I mean, seriously, you are still blowing CO2 previously bound in the earth into the atmosphere. Just because you take your carbon from a short-chained molecule instead of a long-chained one does not fundamentally alter whats happening.
duuude, keep it a little shorter;) regarding sponsoring the far right -> jeah, I am aware of it, we had a mild scandal because our beloved H.C. visited him recently.
for me the the annoyance comes more from me myself trying to be very short and concise (and precise) with my words, and hating the content-less blabla that most people produce. That said, I enjoy reading literature quite a lot and do so daily during commuting.
also you can always put your big pc in another room, get a low-power fanless pc for your living room, and just stream everything (Steam In Home Streaming ftw!)
1) huge -> ok, I can live with that 2) ugly -> there are really neat cases which do not look like a 12 year olds wet dream 3) noisy -> a noisy pc is a bad pc. get a good case with vibration absorbers, get rid of your 60mm fans in favor of 120s or even 180s and run them on 1/4 the speed -> silent.
assuming the issue is really the tools are lost and not "lost" (i.e. taken home), a simple scale that weights the whole box would be way easier to implement and more robust -> one button to "take measurement" before starting work, one to "check" when on the way out, will tell you "something is missing", "everything cool" or actually "you packed half of your customers tools as well".
"In a Self-Driving Future, We May Not Even Want To Own Cars"... uhm, I neither own nor want to own a car now. Jeah, I'm a socialist european hippie who lives in a big city with useful public transportation. Deal with it. The two times a year I actually transport something other than myself I can rent whatever car I like and still get away with 95% winnings over owning a car (and esp. paying for all the crap like insurance and gas).
For heating, a stove is great, both when it comes to any supposed outages (also of electricity) as well as making for really cosy living. Also wood is pretty cheap and a renewable energy source.
Depends on if you are more afraid of a power outage or gas crysis;) You can also use bottled gas for most gas stoves (though you need to configure them for it) which makes you more independent from short-term outages.
have a browser teared towards power-users again, like Opera 12 was. Srsly, why can't any other browser (including Op 15+) get stuff like tab-handling or simple usability features right?
PS: and also obviously there are self-winding mechanical clocks which work by converting the movement of your hand into energy -> never ever need to wind those.
this is actually also wrong for mechanical watches, as they take a constant amount of energy. So no matter how many times you look at the watch and do other things, you can be sure you don't have to rewind outside of your usual schedule (which is normally once in the morning, and takes no 30 seconds, and you don't even have to take off the device). So Apple's Watch is even a step back from mechanical watches.
and you totally didn't ever have to read any man-pages to get what the bash script does... jeah right... on the premise of having to learn what both scripts do starting from zero, I am pretty sure the systemd version would win by a huge margin. Its just people being lazy and pissed off that they have to actually educate themselves about new stuff.
Lead developer of a product that competes with another product says: "mine is better". The only newsworthy thing would have been if he would have said the opposite.
actually I need some of them tomorrow, because some delivery guys will put up my sleeping room and then directly cash the remaining money (and no, thats not even some funky semi-legal business, just the way its done here).

If your employee wants to kick you out they can, but once they fire you why would you ever sign anything they put in your hand?

I am european, and anti-fracking, and I have yet to receive my fat cheque from dear old Vlado.

no problems in my country, but you know, we are commie EU and stuff ...

DST is not really an idea which I condone. Rather get up an hour early if you want that extra hour of sun you lazy bastard!

people living next to an active volcano have to evacuate here and there... would have never guessed that.
