Yeah we are so oppressed here, I mean people are getting sentenced to death for drinking alcohol and downloading documents on womens rights. Oh wait that's not us thats Iran and Afghanistan. Look the great thing about the US is that if you don't like how things are going you get out and vote. The next president might be able to pick three supreme court justices. Think about that when you head to the polls.
Ha! So getting out and Getting out have to different meanings. Seriously though, I'm sure the other big powers can track satellites as good as anyone, so these people determining orbits really isn't special and as so far as "Guessing at their function. I can do that from my cube. I guess spy satellites are there to spy on things. Gee that hard. Now if they could determine the nature of the remote sensing done that would be impressive. Like is it visible light or what is it's resolution etc. All in all it seems this is a whole lot of nothing interesting.
Well it does kind of look like a regular mag lite at least looking at the picture on TFA. If it does look like a normal flashlight one would hope it has a warning not for the buyer but for the safety of others where it is kept.
Just becuase it's a "religion" and I use that term loosely doesn't entilte it to special protection when it does wrong. Not everything has an inherent right to exist. In my human rights and international crimes class, our professor started class with a simple question. Does every culture have the right to be left alone free from outside influence? Of course we all said yes. We were all young college students, wide eyed and naive. He then said "Well what if that culture practices female genital mutilation?"
You can not hide behind a religion or a cult and say it's our right, not when you hurt others or even you own members.
Why do you have such a bug about proving your post that has nothing to do with the article. To stay off topic, just becuase energy is less of an issue doesn't mean it's not an issue. Sure it might be better but our ability to hardness solar energy isn't that efficient yet. Some processes take gas furnaes some take electric furnaces. A lot take water for colling purposes. Just becuase it's space doesn't mean that getting rid of excess heat is easy esp with no atmosphere. So that raises ew quetsions all our production involes an atmosphere and 1 garvity. Do you know how things will act on teh moons gravity and with no Atmosphere? I know I don't. So all those materials that you need to produce something like Alluminum that was mentioned in a very nice post above. So now we need to ship all that stuff up there? Even with that production plants on earth are not comply automated. You don't think the powers that be wouldn't love to automate their plants so they didn't have to pay wages to employees?
Face it it's still a long way off and not something that NASA can just make work in the near future.
I agree that engineers need to be held accountable, but protecting against nature is totally different that protecting against a person with a malicious purpose.
The Tacoma narrows analogy is completely flawed. The guy who barely made it off alive (who also had a dog in the car that wasn't so lucky) had nothing to do with causing the bridge to fail. The Bridge was flawed, it didn't come crashing down becuase of human intervention. It was a victim of not adequately accounting for nature and the laws of physics and engineering. The Tram system was a victim of a kid exploiting the system. Now if the tracks failed becuase sunlight caused the tracks to switch and this caused the accident then by all means charge the engineers with criminal negligence and have their license revoked.
To charge them you have to look at a whole slew of factors, when was the system designed, was this crime common when it was designed. Was the new system more or less secure than the old system, how could it have been prevented etc etc. That will be a lot more difficult and error prone than charging the kid who knew what he was doing and achieved his goal.
Why is it whenever their is a story like this on/. people come running out of the woodwork to say how the designers should be the ones to face criminal charges. Why do we defend the "precious snowflakes" when they were the ones that consciously and willfully committed the act? Unless they can find proof where the designers and engineers said "Hey lets make this system easy to hack so we can watch some kid play havoc with our system and maybe even get some one killed", I would be hard pressed to say they are at fault. Just becuase some kid is inventive or clever doesn't mean that he also can't be a criminal.
I hammer probably wont do much when you're talking about a full grown man, but here is my two cents I got from doing competitive diving. Breaking the surface with your hands or feet felt felt fine, if I broke the surface with my back or my stomach I felt like I was going to die.
I love the (mis)overuse of the the word rape around here. Seriously, it was a movie. Thats all. You watched it when you were a kid and you liked it. It happened in the past and that past is fixed. Nothing done in the future will alter that past. If you're upset that you're child doesn't get the same enjoyment out of it you did, well no kidding, I'm sure their were things you're father liked as a kid that you didn't. Thats part of life.
Lucas can end it right now by just giving the actual fans of his actual work what we actually want. Actual Fans How do you suppose we determine his actual fans. I'm sure their are people who like his new stuff just as much as their are people who liked his old stuff. actual work Wait what? So becuase he did redid it, that makes it not his actual work? actually want As soon as you're group goes from 1 to 1+n then good luck getting them to agree on what the want.
If your kid doesn't like it maybe he just isn't a nerd. Maybe you should play catch with him or something. It's a movie and that's all it is. Nothing more.
Thats what I've been told, it's not so much what you've done in your past (with in reason) but what you would do to prevent that information being released. If you're willing to admit everything you've done then what can some one blackmail you with?
We hear the argument about GIMP will be huge if people have to pay for Photoshop. In the commercial world that just doesn't work like that. I think companies tend to go with what ever is the industry standard most of the time. Sure while Photoshop CS3 at $699 for Joe user at home it's nothing for a business because they recoup their costs when they sell what ever product it is that they are using Photoshop for.
I think the pool of prospective buyers for such a system and means to do so is exactly 2. No more no less. Unfortunately they both decided to become suppliers instead of one becoming a consumer. Maybe they could sell their houses to each other.
These arguments about "parents having to raise their kids" are getting old. There are gamers that are so obsessed they will get up in the middle of the night to play when they should be sleeping and going to school the next day. Tell me how a parent is supposed to monitor their child 24x7? Parents have to sleep too you know. This tool allows them the ability to make sure junior is not playing games when the parents feel he/she shouldn't be.
I could give more examples but I need to go to sleep so I can go to work. Hey/. where is a timer so I can't comment after my bed time?

Now it's just sad.
I was going to say much the same. They paid you for the time you spent working on it, its more or less their code. Well not more or less mostly more.

So you are saying it's okay to mutilate a little girl who has no choice in the matter? I just want to make sure.
