Just because he works for the FBI doesn't mean he is computer literate. The majority of them are nothing more than federally paid beat cops doing missing persons investigations and helping out when other LE can't do the investigation themselves. I think you and others are giving him too much credit because he works for a three letter government agency.
I think you are the one misunderstanding. They will go back to a centralized computer and the workers will use dumb terminals. Citrix has been doing that for a long time. A wyse terminal isn't too expensive. Besides you can control what the user gets access to way better than with a pc at every desk.
Wow that is a gross over dramatization. No provider in their right mind would string one run of fiber when they were doing it, even if it was a backwater town. Having lived in a "back water town" for a few years, the local providers install way more than is needed to allow for the forced sharing of their network.
Since when? When was the last time any politician told the truth, or did our bidding? We have been lied to for many decades. It doesn't matter if you are Dem or Repub. They do and say whatever is in their best interests, not yours or mine. Once people like you accept that fact then we can proceed to remove all the puppets, and attempt to put people who are actually going to do what we, and not the biggest donor tell them.
So vote the guy out of office. That is the way it's supposed to work. He says/does what his constituents wants or they get rid of him. Start petitions, online or IRL, protest at his offices, send letters/email, or make phone calls. Don't just complain about it do something about it. Until then you don't really have much to complain about. Get involved or be quiet.
In oil spills, the oil floats on top of the wate, not the other way around. How can this help clean up oil spills?
I know it is not for the faint of heart but a quote from the article below means for the test they used an oil that is denser than water, so that means it's below the water/air barrier.
To test the surfaceâ(TM)s ability to repel oil, Wangâ(TM)s team placed the wires underwater and added droplets of 1,2-dichloroethane, an oil that is denser than water, to their surfaces.
What's a scam is to expect someone to *work*, creating a product you want and then get all snooty when they ask you to pay them for it. And $10 is very reasonable.
Ok then. I helped my brother with his HVAC company for a few days while on vacation from my regular gig. It was a big hotel job 6 floors etc. So by your logic I should be paid each time the AC or the heat is used anywhere in that building? Right, that doesn't make any sense either. You were paid same as I was when you did the work. You're done, you want more money make more music/art/whatever the public will buy and stop whining about it.
We must destroy the "got to have it now" mentality before it destroys the country.
Sadly, it is too late for most "civilized" countries. I think that went out the window when we all decided to use plastic instead of cash/check/debit/prepaid card.
The restrictions applied to the web are draconian, with sites such as hackaday, hypberbole and a half, somethingawful, etc being blocked."
Did you read and understand the TOS/AUP before you signed on the dotted line, proverbially or literally? If you NEED access to sites with such questionable material that they are blocked, why not request access and specify why you need it? That's what's going to happen in the real world after you get a real job. Everything or at least most everything will need to go through multiple layers of bureaucracy to get access to products, tools, or sites. At each level there is always some sort of needs/benefits test done. As I see it the majority of students, the ones fresh out of High School at least, expect everything to be given to them with no limits or stipulations. It doesn't work that way in the corporate working world, so why should it be that way in the corporately ran education world either. I think higher ed should not be just book knowledge, but also to prepare the students for it's going to be like fro the rest of their working lives.
How is this any different than the surplus auctions? It has lived it planned and funded life, note I did not say it's intended life. It now becomes surplus just like any other chair, computer, or vehicle.
I'm a Bible believing Christian and I have a problem with not using the cells resulting from a an early-term abortion. I'm not trying to be funny or hurtful, but that is just being wasteful. At that point the person's life is over. How is that different than being an organ donor? I would counsel someone still in the decision making process that there are other options to abortion, keeping the child and adoption are a couple. I don't think it is correct to not give options. It's wrong to tell a woman, or a man for that matter, what and how to think. I can tell them what I would do, or what I think is a good choice, but I would not tell them that they have no choice in the matter either way. I would prefer that the consenting individuals involved would use some common sense and some form of contraception, but that would require being responsible for your actions, yeah that will happen. Yes, there are some instances that I understand the reasoning for the abortion, incest, rape, danger to mother, or the baby suffering some form of deformity that would preclude a normal fulfilling life. I don't condone it but I understand it. I'm completely against late-term abortions, period, all stop. These are my beliefs like it or not. In the end we all have to live our lives as we feel we are compelled to live them. If you are a non-believer, and you are wrong, when you die you will be in for a very rude awakening. If you are a believer, and you are wrong you will be in, oh wait you won't care.
I know what you mean. A couple of years ago I was in pretty serious motorcycle wreck and ended up trashing my right upper torso and extremities. Four operations and two plates later I have one arm that is about 5mm shorter than the other. Plus I had compression fractures of t5 and t8, I'm now half an inch shorter that I was. Each surgery on my wrist was basically breaking and adjusting the bones for the best fit. The day of the wreck I had a plate and 11 screws to reattach the head of the radius. Then about 9 months after that, once the initial fracture mostly healed they had to remove that plate and associated hardware due to mobility issues, or should I say lack there of, and cut and section the ulna, an ulnar wafer osteotomy they called it. That added another plate and I think six more screws. All told I've only had "normal" use of my wrist in the past three to four months. It would have been so much nicer if I didn't have to do that. As for my back they said that the only real option was to put me in a brace and said don't take it off unless I was flat on my back. That was no fun. This is what it looked like http://www.aspenmp.com/images/stories/gallery-aspen-cto/gallery-aspen-cto-1.jpg. That was the worst months I have had to go through. If that could have been shortened to 2-3 weeks instead of several months to two years would have been worth it.
Dart nothing, they said 10 centimeters. That's approaching the crew served field artillery sizes. I come on the abrams ONLY has a 120mm cannon for the primary weapon. You show me a shoulder fired, make that, man portable weapon system that has that kind of range and ability.
Point taken, but I've lived longer in Colorado than SC. I mean it does get cold here, low to mid 20s. My coldest day I rode my motorcycle was 14f, real air temp. It's not like when I lived in Greeley. That was single digits for days at a time.
As someone who doesn't start my pickup and let it idle to warm up, no. My route is fairly static under 40 MPH, with no real high RPM fun. My truck has a factory S/C on it, it should theoretically love the E85, but since it's a 2001 Nissan it would die if I tried to run it without changing the majority of the fuel lines/fittings. It runs the same on pure 87/89 or 93. But when you add the E10 mix it actually causes the timing to retard due to more perceived knock. Which in turn sucks about 20% of the power output away. So it actually is more expensive to run 87/89 with E10 mix than it is to run pure 87/89. Around here, upstate of SC, there is a $.20 premium on 87 with no Ethanol at all. I'm scared to look at the 93.
I look at is similar to a convenience store. They have to check IDs for certain items, cigarettes, alcohol, etc. Are they the police? No but they have to vet that they only sell to legal persons.

The best is, not to listen/watch any of it at all. Including websites/blogs/etc.

Off topic I know but I as I was reading that I was hearing Ahmed the dead terrorist's voice in my head.

Actually the styling was by Ferdinand Porsche, if I recall correctly. He wasn't complaining either, he got to perfect his design under Hitler's reign.
Well duh... The world is ending on the 21st of December. They just want you to think it's temporary...
Thanks, now I'm having flashbacks to repairing Selectrics. Those things are tanks. Now get off my lawn.. darn kids

I'm thinking more like Pike or Alligator Gar. Lots of teeth and once they get a grip on something they don't let go. I can't stand politicians.

I stand corrected. My fault for not reading the actual story. I'm used to dealing the nomenclature being expressed is the diameter/caliber not length.
