Why doesn't NASA just buy that motivation engine from Lucas Arts? That way, if the damned thing rolls off a cliff it will try to grab onto something. Hell, it probably won't even get near the edge in the first place, getting a funny scared feeling in its wiener.
They already have tax -- the increased costs of conventional bulbs.
Let the market forces work. If I were a CFC company, I'd have a boner at this. No need to reduce costs now -- government is gonna drive up demand for me.
The market invents stuff, let it do its job. That's why we have nice things to begin with.
Thank you. The US should look more to the source of its problems being government granting monopolies and mucking around forbidding "last drop" digital fiber to houses.
Don't forget about pumping the omnipresent cameras into facial recognition software, and dumping it all into tracking databases. This on top of character recognition tracking license plates.
Oh, you're gonna get Godwinned. Hitler, Napoleon, Genghis Khan, these all approve.
In the west, politics has taken over from religion in arrogating onto itself the power to force its views on everyone. This is reflected in things like the First Amendment.
This process needs to happen over there. Do not allow it to grab more power.
Next step: stripping it from politics. This was done once but it clawed its way back in. Politics and religion generate the same angers not because they are similar, but because they are the exact same phenomenon
"Hey, Google. (insert OP contents here)...unless a more...equitable...arrangement is agreed?"
Microsoft started donating hand-over-fist, This, combined with their philanthropy, largely dried up attacks by pontificating politicians around the world.
An outrageous statement? No, a prediction. Google will learn to play the game and start making many more political "donations".
And, to quasi-knowitalls, what part of prediction don't you guys understand?

Ok, Europe's solved a relatively minor problem hostorically -- evil corporations tracking you.
Now you need to tackle the other 99.99% of the historical problem, billions-of-needless-deathswise, and stop government from facial recognition, and license plate recognition, and so on and automated assembly into tracking databases.
Salespeople? These are people you want to be like politicians. Able to make you feel like they are your best friend in less than 5 minutes. Able to lie convincingly. Know their way around a big expense account, know wat ahm sayin'?
When asked about their vulnerability to brute force attacks, the six million people said, "This must be what the Slashdot people felt like in high school."
Some day we're gonna have millions of robots. They have to be able to recognize you so the one guy in the room can send them out to arrest you.
You exist to serve the government. It is the logical conclusion of history the past hundred years.
Smile, wait, don't smile for your new robot overlords. And you are not permitted to read that copy of 1984 because it is inflammatory and may cause fights.
CBS News: Doctor, you mentioned the ratio of ten women to each man. Now, wouldn't that necessitate the abandonment of the so-called monogamous sexual relationship, I mean, as far as men were concerned?
Branson: Regrettably, yes. But it is, you know, a sacrifice required for the future of the human race. I hasten to add that since each man will be required to do prodigious...service along these lines, the women will have to be selected for their sexual characteristics which will have to be of a...highly stimulating nature.
I have no problems with truth, but do people understand that going, "Zomg hey you! It's a genetically-modified frankenfood, oogity boogity boo", that that is itself a kind of fraud? That is well beyond a simple precautionary stance principle.
Which itself, by the way, may be more harmful than good in certain cases. The flippant statement "Did they study the effects of starvation, too" digs deep because it may be a wise position.
It's a typo -- the Microsoft one's price is more "deerer", as in you caught in the headlights.
Also, they left out that MS will still be hemorrhaging cash even at these prices. It's the X-Box all over again, where market share must be purchased at all costs.
Carriers are a convenience. In any real conflict, which is to say a fight with any nation capable of carrier-sinking missiles, we can fly somewhere nearby the hard way and take over airspace and create landing strips. Also, what's good for the goose is better for the gander with even better tech. We just need not slack off like Europe does while China forges ahead.

That is indeed the meme shift underway.

A religious organization lie? You're kidding me!

More importantly, you should ask how to surf with zero hands.
Ding ding ding ding ding. Your robots have discovered water on a large asteroid with gravity. Move colony ship to colonize? Yes/No

It's not a terrorist threat. It's not about terrorism. It's a "mundane" mass murderer threat.

I wanna edit that and get rid of the hyphen.
Have Android Verizon, let's see if the tethering apps are back at Google Play Store.
Uhhhh, yeah. They are. 78,000,000 of them. Just the list used up most of my 2GB limit this month. Now I have to tether. >:-(
