It is also more than the President. Sure, each one gets to appoint his cabinet, and the cabinet heads might put in some new upper level folks, but the rest of the departments are still the same drones as before. It's not the Pres or the department heads that are taking forever, it's the drones that just don't give a fuck. I wouldn't be surprised if it was one guy/gal's only job to redact this one document, and did so at a pace of 1 page per day. Then spent 7 hours having monkey sex in various broom closets with interns.
If you like horror films, check out horror-movies.ca. A bunch of low cost film makers there, with varying levels of success. From $4K to around $25K budgets, I believe. I think 5 are currently in the process of finishing new films.
I was wondering how long it would take for someone to bring up software processing. I've seen some very good final product even with moderate filming equipment. I don't think the color saturation is there yet, but I haven't seen the latest generation (or 2 maybe) of cameras.
As I said above, they are improvements. Every thing you say is an improvement- low power, multi-core, touchscreen sensitivity, tiny GPS receiver. Notice all those adjectives? Then you go and say that everything you just listed already existed. You said "invented." Stop fumbling about and just admit you used the wrong word.
Your guests are stopping by a visit before going directly to the airport, and didn't think of printing the boarding passes before hand? Or they don't have a printer? You have some dumb friends.
1) So you are comparing tech to corruption in Fukushima. That's great. 2) The Johnstown dam flood killed about 2,200 people, and the Banqiao Dam killed about 26,000. I think that's more than nuclear accidents. Don't confuse regulations and oversight with technical safety. Stop cherry picking your facts.
Here we go again... The network is the machine is now the Cloud. Touchscreen is now touchscreen, some how improved. Smartphones replacing full systems is now tablets replacing full systems. Having a dock is replace by not having a dock, which will be replaced by having a dock. and on and on...
A good sci-fi book from around 1990. Half the population wore goggles to record perceived violations caused by others (normally older folks recording younger folks). It was a minor point in the book, but it showed a nifty cat-and-mouse game between the observers and those trying to get away with things like littering, graffiti, etc.
I really think there is a chance that NK leadership has gone so bonkers they would actually try something like bombing SK. I doubt it would be effective unless they bring a nuke to the fight, but we're still talking about one of China's maybe-buddies. The USSR was scary, but they weren't so honking insane as these guys.
Hopefully, NK will just keep doing the "chest thumping" thing until they get tired. Or it's all just a bluff in the first place. I, personally, have had enough wars/actions/what-have-you for now. Too much death. Everyone (including the US) just chill and have a cup o' tea and a biscuit.
I only except measurements in Planck time units. I don't even know if that makes sense in this discussion. I've just been itching to use "Planck time" somehow for a bit.

They pre-wrote a 140 letter missive? Are they using a drugged-out, one-armed sloth as their spokesman?
Linked in TFA was weird things people got flagged for. Who carries a chastity belt onto a plane? Is the Mile High Club to hard to resist?

Invented, no. Improved, yes.
So, what have you done wrong that makes you so paranoid?

If they "need" to access something, they should have taken care of that shit before leaving their house.
That's nice. Have any examples for OS X? No? OK then.

Makes one wonder why the accident is so high, considering that only TMI has happened in the US, and that was a fart in the wind.
Very true. All that radioactive material inside the earth is coming to get us. Very soon. I promise.
And the waste products from making solar panels are not exactly environmentally friendly, either.
The sad thing is that this TFS makes as much sense as some non-ROT'd TFS's.
I remember when the jokes were clever.

It's called the "Girls' Gossip Group." Your girlfriend knows you cheated on her before you cheat on her.
I misread the title as "Indian Supreme Court denies Novaris Cancer Drug to Patient." Much better upon reading the TFS.
