Don't forget the US is a country where they need a law which specifies that gun manufacturers cannot be held responsible for deaths and injuries caused by their products. There is no law to protect auto manufacturers. You bet your ass some will try to sue, and at least one judge is going to rule against the auto companies. Then it becomes an avalanche unless they are "protected". Jackpot justice is a sick, broken system.
The correct description is "fruity", and it's due to ketone bodies present in the blood, not sugar. The blood is chock full of sugar and yet without insulin (or the correct response to insulin), this sugar is not making it into cells, so the body is literally starving to death despite all that sugar. Ketone bodies are produced by fatty acid metabolism, a sign that starvation has been going on for a while...
Wasn't the desktop supposed to be dying 15 years ago, when tablets first started coming out?
We have cars. We have SUV's. We have minivans. We have trucks. We have motorcycles. No single one of them is in danger of extinction, although sales vary between the groups from year to year. The desktop is also here to stay. Only a desktop can provide the raw computing power, the flexibility, the ease of modification and programming. Try to switch the graphics card on your tablet. Try to program your console.
Now we can argue that not everyone needs or wants a desktop - I agree. But dead? Never.
On the other hand - unlike municipal and other laws that prevent you from stringing your own cable on telephone poles or under roads: absolutely nothing is stopping you from putting up your own satellites.
I doubt it because I can imagine exactly what is driving them to set up these networks - inserting their own ad service into your streams. I am sure a not insignificant amount of people are going to wish to continue paying for ad-free service.
When you're burning millions of dollars worth of fuel per second, anything less than ideal is really bad... Yeah ok I was exaggerating, hyperbole is a sin I regularly commit. However any compromise implies less than the ideal and since the needs of rocket flight in a high pressure environment are completely opposite to the needs of rocket flight in a vacuum, the "happy middle" is expensive. The GOOD thing about it is that it's less expensive than lugging a 2nd motor up to orbit before turning it on.
Facebook, Google and Twitter are not "the internet". It's people's laziness that results in the web being distilled down into a single purveyor of search, porn, instant messaging, social media, etc. Logically governments everywhere like to apply force to these natural choke-points. But the internet is much, much more than these few sites and just like you can still download any show, movie or program you want even today, you will always be able to do what you want to do online. You will just have to be less lazy about it.
which works at both sea level and vacuum fairly well
That's a nice way of putting it. In other words it's a compromise resulting in an engine that is really bad at sea level and really bad in space, but not so bad that it would be cheaper/more efficient to build a 2 engine system...
Apart from Microsoft's piece of shit browser most security fixes have had nothing to do with remote exploits for a while. They have all required someone to have physical access to your machine. The days of "plug your computer into the internet and have it pwned in 30 seconds are over". Since using a secure browser is easy and since I'm not downloading and running random programs off the internet, I have no "security issues".

Will auto-makers like it when they are held responsible when people inevitably find ways to cheat these systems?
But what you get back is ultra-thin crust, hence the problem.
I guess some sort of transponder system would be really really really expensive....
It's almost as if people thought there were no other video hosting sites!
I dunno, this kind of reminds me of something. For some reason the words "Alpha Centauri" are buzzing around my head.
Very much this.
The machine gun is only for non Amazon Prime members.
Rubbish. You take what the cloud offers. If the cloud doesn't offer it, you're fucked.

Perhaps. Perhaps not. Necessity is the mother of invention.

Because they might find some of their satellites falling out of the sky until they do?
competes fairly with all other products
This is Amazon we're talking about.

Since when did proof have anything to do with politics?

With some modifications, a pencil could be a real starship. You just have to, basically, build a starship around it.
All the basil plants I ever buy end up dying. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong.
I would have expected it to warm at exactly the global average rate. I mean, isn't that what averages are FOR? /sarcasm
