Actually, she's famous because some second-rate (yet oddly enough, squeaky clean) celebrity has a brother (who is even more of an off-brand celebrity) who performed various 'acts' with Kim Kardashian on tape. And then *somehow* that tape got leaked to the world.
So really she's about the most successful crossover porn star. =/
I find it convenient you didn't mention the razor blade portion of his comment. Like wire coat hangers, there is a decidedly non-zero mortality rate associated with every unit sold. (/ducks)
As far as I know, a moniker is a 'nickname' you give yourself, so unless there's some highly creative recombination going on, it was likely some science journalist who coined the term 'junk dna'!
sigh. things like that are to foil the casual surveillance, and data aggregation.. obviously if a law enforcement agency or something similar is targeting you, it's already too late. In other words, if they want to surveil you, they will.
It's like you've never had to pull someone out of a bog.. with a rope.. tied around their neck.. Trust me, it's a super, super common procedure in Northern Europe.
whenever CEO pay comes up on this site, people bitch about how much more the CEO makes vs rank and file. Okay, valid complaint.
Here a CEO bucks that trend, nukes his own salary and gives everyone a *minimum* 70k salary -- which is different from everyone getting 70k. He not only does a commendable thing: paying employees more than necessary; but walks the walk and takes a massive paycut himself.
The real story here is the crab-pot mentality. If I'm making 100k, and my cubicle neighbor goes from 35k to 70k, that doesn't have any impact on me whatsoever*. Why complain?
*small scale, intra-company comparison here, yes I know if the minimum wage was suddenly 70k, that's a different beast.
Maybe if Germany had been forced to unconditionally surrender after WWI, the elements of their society that were vulnerable to nationalism and 'revenge' would have been weeded out, and WWII might not have had a European Theater.
Hiroshima: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... (During the Pacific War, Kure acted as Japan's largest single naval base and arsenal. Most of the city's industry and workforce supported the naval installations and associated support functions. In the later stages of the conflict Kure came under sustained aerial bombardment culminating in the Bombing of Kure in June and July 1945)
Nagasaki: "During World War II, at the time of the nuclear attack on August 9, 1945, Nagasaki was an important industrial city, containing both plants of the Mitsubishi Steel and Arms Works, the Akunoura Engine Works, Mitsubishi Arms Plant, Mitsubishi Electric Shipyards, Mitsubishi Steel and Arms Works, Mitsubishi-Urakami Ordnance Works, several other small factories, and most of the ports storage and trans-shipment facilities, which employed about 90% of the city's labor force, and accounted for 90% of the city's industry. These connections with the Japanese war effort made Nagasaki a major target for bombing by the Allies during the war."
Not so much removing them.. but having them there in the first place. They were basically a knife put to Russia's throat, their moving missiles to Cuba was a totally rational and proportionate response.
If you bring a gun to a knife fight, and the other guy goes and gets himself a gun, well.. what the fuck did you expect?
well in reality the invisibility powder is really just ground up lye, and when thrown into the eyes of someone else, it blinds them, thus rendering you invisible to that person.
really? i'm using a lumia 510 as we speak. granted it's a prepaid $60 dollar phone from target -- but for what i use it for (texting,light browsing,email) it's pretty much perfect.
I can't be the only person in the US who purchased said phone, can I? (though the app selection makes me wonder...)
on the other hand, a purely vegan food system would also destroy the environment. where do you get your fertilizer for example? (hint: it won't be from animals, and synthetic fertilizer from fossil fuels is also a non-winner in the long term.)
okay, so how many libraries of congress could it hit with it's laser at 17 miles? If you're going to get all technical on us, deliver something useful.
seriously, this guy will probably have the most sane post in this entire thread. Clever hacks and technical trickery are well and good, but the human element and gaming people are always going to be the easiest and most reliable ways to defeat security.
Engineers come from all walks of life, and don't usually wear signs that say "Hello, my name is engineer". You could have been near one at the grocery store, on the bus, or in line at Starbucks. So my question is, how do you *know* for certain you aren't near an engineer, right now?

TIL that you take blood pressure with a stethoscope (rather than a sphygmomanometer)
this is the first time i've seen bane posting on Slashdot.. Thank you, made my day :)
funny how the weightlifting arguably has more of a health benefit than any number of steps.
Cycling though, would be a problem wouldn't it? as your total risk for requiring medical attention goes up due to accident risk? hmmmmm.
holy god, talk about going off on a tangent. Tell me your thoughts on the NSA and FBI please

i switched from 5 or 6 cokes a day, to 5 or 6 beers per day.. my weight hasn't changed at all -- but i feel MUCH better. Go figure, right?

Non-Military, are you sure?

That would be a shocking misuse of the charging apparatus.
but didn't the US put missiles in Turkey? ....Kind of seems.. fair doesn't it?

But it does work.
you should amend to that to 'west of the cascades'. Most of OR and WA are semi-arid desert areas that get copious amounts of sunshine!
