Scientific writing should always be in celsius, with farenheit in parentheses.
between 716 and 932 degrees Fahrenheit = 380C to 500C. Looks like the author already took the perfectly workable celsius and obfuscated it by turning it into farenheit, which is stupid since no human would have an appreciation of what 716 farenheit is like compared to the normal temperature ranges they're familiar with anyway.
I recently bought Thai takeaway food - a massaman curry - that came in a recycled cardboard pottle with a plastic lining, which said on it that the plastic lining was made from plants not from oil.
It didn't indicate it was recyclable or compostable, though.
Oh, so one of the ingredients of the urine bricks is "nutrients"?
Also sand might be very abundant in total, but sand appropriate for building with is much less abundant - river and beach sand work and there have been articles on Slashdot in the past about sand piracy and blackmarket sand. Desert sand, of which there is a huge abundance, is not appropriate, because it's too small and light.
Rather than some 'urine bricks', I'd be more interested if someone had found a way to make desert sand useful in construction.
Yes, but which units should you use to counter your enemy? When should you scout? When you see your enemy has building X at time Y and location Z, what is your best response?
You can do a lot with brute forcing, which is the sort of play style you're talking about, but if your AI can't do reasonably well at most of the above components, then it will still be able to be beaten by a pro player.
So an adult weighing 80kg will cost $136,000. That's just for the person, doesn't include the air, water, food and everything else to sustain them.
There might be multidisciplinary humans in orbit who can take on tasks for your company, but it looks like the cost of these humans would probably be on the order of something like $10,000 per hour, once you take into account all the costs of running the habitat for them.
So your hearts are going to need a couple of hours handling individually at most if you want this to be economically feasible for mass adoption.
Not really a good analogy, because once the plumbing and sewer system is built the maintenance cost is very very low compared to the initial outlay. Hooking up additional houses is also tiny compared to the initial network cost.
But getting stuff into space (and back) is always going to be fairly expensive, unless/until we get a space elevator.
Uh, yes, I do know how grindr works, probably much better than you do. It's perfectly possible to have a fake profile and a fake GPS location (I did this regularly).
"They could have had the same thing much easier by simply not using it."
Wow, you have serious reading comprehension failure.
This was not their account. They were impersonated by someone else.
You'd probsbly be upset if an acquaintance got photos off you From Facebook and impersonated you on Grindr and sent people to your house looking for sex. Or if you don't have Facebook, someone could simply take photos of you on their phone and then do it. All without you having to have used Grindr, or even know what it is.
Bloodmoon + Eclipse is redundant since they describe the same thing.
Wolf moon is also stupid, since it's not actually anything astronomical at all, just a name some culture gave a moon in a particular month - of which there will be one every year anyway. Big deal.

But these shops are probably selling a lot of the same items that shops 20 years ago would have charged 4 times the price for. Sure there will be people who can't pay more, but then there's also the fact that these shops can now buy products so cheaply and ship from China so easily, that they can compete with the stores of yesteryear and drive them out of business.
I honestly think that greeting cards are one industry that millennials truly will kill. Or at least force substantial price reductions on.
My parents don't bother with birthday cards - instead they buy a block of chocolate and write happy birthday on that, because it's the same price and obviously chocolate is far better than some cardboard.
Ignoring the point that different algorithms can produce different results at the same given bit rate. If there's a video provider that doesn't really care about the service they're offering, they may ensure everything is sent at a particular bitrate. This can result in inconsistent quality between titles if the algorithms that were used to encode it are different (and again, this is for a content provider that doesn't care about what they're doing). Also complex scenes need higher bitrates in order to render an acceptable image, again if the provider just sets a cap on their bitrate this may result in some scenes having much lower quality than others.
It's a really hard tightrope to walk going after a niche, though, because your sales will be less so it's really important you cut costs. If you end up with lower quality components as a result, then the niche you're targeting will probably ignore your offering and buy one of the other phones that fits their niche well-enough. And if you don't compromise the quality of the components, you need to ensure you don't spend too much on marketing - but then if you don't spend on marketing you may not make the sales required to justify the product, etc.
Bitcoin was never reliable though. $55 transaction fees, and transactions that could sit in a queue for 10+ hours is far inferior to any other established form of payment system.
Slashdot Mirror
81% of bitcoin mining is controlled by Chinese companies.
This flap over Huawei in 5G networks is due to the suspicion that the Chinese government can exert control over them whenever they please.
But that same rationale, the Chinese government can exert control over 81% of bitcoin mining hashrate whenever it chooses.
It just hasn't yet.
Hopefully one where both Trump and Pence go down at the same time, making Pelosi president.
Then she can appoint Hillary as her VP and resign, giving Hillary the position she rightfully would have won, were it not for Putin / Comey.
It's based on what people ate in the 40s and 50s.
So are you comparing to modern diets or those from decades ago?
Why would you 'have to list [it] on your body of work"?
You know that a portfolio is a catalogue of content that you're proud to show off, right, and it's entirely up to you what goes into the portfolio?

around 850 farenheit = around 450C.
Just look at XRP. It's less centralised than bitcoin and consumes 0.1 TW/hr per year to run.

Cryptocurrency produces no tangible value of its own, such as a useful good or service.
Ahh yes, the usual Slashdot ignorance of saying "Cryptocurrency" when you really mean "Bitcoin".
99% of cryptocurrencies are useless, including Bitcoin, but there are others that aren't. Ethereum is one of them.

No, the solution is what3words.com

Personally I don't understand the supposed SJW themes that are on the show.
But this last season has just been dreadful with the plots: boring, stupid, no actual humour or clever writing.

Vicious circle.

The whole point of rising house prices is that your equity goes up.
So you buy a house for $400k with a $300k mortgage. After 4 years your mortgage principal is at $270k, but your house value has gone up to $500k.
Your original equity was $100k, but now it's $230k.
Do some research on XRP, because it exists specifically to solve problems in foreign exchange.
