When there is no commercial interest, works get lost to the sand of times, far,far quicker than when in public domain. Very recent example : a lot of commercial software or games are getting "legally" lost because nobody can copy them freely and maybe change them hack them to run in a VM. Film get lost , more recent film, because nobody care to copy them and distribute them commercially, and you cannot legally distribute them. Same with music or books.
If copyright is held by cvompany : when they lose interrest but still protect copyright mercilessly, then works get lost and forgotten. When work is in the public domain, at least those possessing a copy can TRY to take care of maintaining them. In commercial hand the public hand are tied.
The correct statement is : were other area increased , like military ? If yes, what is the justification to increase military expenditure at the expanse of science, when really the budget already is so humongus that other country in the world match it by an order of magnitude, and you really have no threat from your nearest neighbors (Mexico, Canada do not have a comparable budget by any order of magnitude, and your east/west neighbors are fishes).
I hold that the military US budget could be made to be constant or lowered. Science should on the other hand not.
The problem were not the people which trusted medical research to begin with. the problem was always the mccarthy of the world which distrust "big pharma" and their "research" and all of them, those anti vaxxer "know" that MMR vaccine make their kids have autism and they have even anecdote to boot.
Good luck convincing the faithful. Some rare one may be, but if it was that easy, there would be no major religion by now.
It is the job of the reviewer to check that the statistic was used ion the proper context. not to check the result, but the methodology. It sounds like social journal simply either have bad reviewer or sucks at methodology.
No seriously, the radio is not connected to the computer system, the comptuer system is extremely conservative by many standard and is not connected to the in flight wifi. You cannot have an air-gap attack without a microphone or similar device.
The gao report is a complete nonsense and was laughed out by all technical people involved in the computer system of airplane or in flight entertainment.
"So, Mr cyber Expert and Pilot, other than saying "nuh uh", do you have anything to suggest there is no chance of this?"
Aside complete network separation and absence of microphone ? Really guys sometimes there is absolutely NOTHING about threat reports.
"smoke weed" => "ban it ! People should not be able to chose ! government may reduce personal liberties !" "get a shop to bake you a gay mariage cake" => "you may not impose those poor sales peopel to sell stuff ! Religious rights ! Right to discriminate ! Eleventy !"
This is in a nutshell the big hyprocrisy. they are for the rights and freedoms that conservative likes, but those right and freedom they do not likes, suddenly are to be made illegal.
The funny things is that there is more religious interdiction that conservative breaks, which are cited far more than homosexuality, but conservative ignore them, because they would look stupid upholding them (think not eating shellfish or mixing cloth of different fiber, working on saturday/sunday or paying 30 shekels in silver and forcing a woman to marry her rapist). On the other hand homosexuality which is barely mentionned suddenly is a religious freedom issue. The sad reality is that it is not a religious aversion, it is a disgust they feel at homosexuality and they try to make up any excuse to impose their own disgust over the population". Well anyway I can't wait for this generation to "pass away". In 20 years all republican of today and tea party guys of today will be seen the same way as those who were for racial separation back in the 50ies / 60ies : they will be seen as incredible biggoted fucktard.
More likely it is for syndicated or special content only available for paid subscription. IOW, films, tv series, shows, anime & cartoon, presentations, etc.... It is also most probably not in the interest of content producer to suddenly shift behind a pay wall : this would completely dry instantly revenue up. Far more probably some part of the content of higher quality would be behind a subscription, while the lower quality content to bait people would be publicly available.
You simply have the local smarphone program read the local SMS, then if it receives some kind of code (encrypted generated from another PC, sent by any regular old phone) on regular basis, nothing happens. then if it receive no "stay unexploded" or receive one with the wrong encryption key, it trigger itself.
It is simple, if the enemy can cut off your signal, then make the absence of signal the trigger. Deadman switch.
Easter egg are a security and a quality risk. Easter egg are not tested, are not known. So somebody outside can find them, exploit them or destabilize inadvertently the software. I hate easter egg in my project because of that. If that was not present, then programmer can be as quirky as they want. For example easter egg *comments* are fine. They are not runnable code. I saw pics and poem in comments ascii art, and i smiled and showed a thumb up. But I made very very clear that I would consider any coded easter egg malicious, even in variable code name : having fun at work is OK as long as it respects the maintenance and coding practice and security/stability of the software.
It is forbidden to sell pornographic magazine to people under 18. Easy accessible porn to 12-13 year old was only in the case they found the porn stash of older persons. It was very very rare to get real porn magazine and I never seen any bondage or harder stuff until I was much older, the 2 one I remember seeing were "memorable" events and it was vanilla sex. That is the problem the net offer : easy accessibility to hard stuff (note I did not say hard core, I meant here the genre, like bondage etc... Normal vanilla sex should not really shock a 12-13 that much. SM play or gagging or fake rape, or way underage looking model or bestiality etc... That is a definitively different story).
If sdomebody buy valve they buy ther liabilities with them. That means current contract. Somebody could not simply shut steam down by buying it. Now if there is a valve *bankruptcy* (unlikely on short term) that changes because liabilities and current contract are handled differently, but just in case of buying outside of bankruptcy it is not that simple as "it is mine fuck it now I shut it down".
" Others have literally recoiled in horror at the idea of someone not being on Facebook. " I have not seen that in big firms, or in established firms with somewhat middle aged people. In younger start up maybe, but If a firm is suspicious because I don't use facebook, then frankly it is not a firm i want to work with : they are being suspicious of innocent things, so their paranoia will probably extend to worst things once you are in.
A lot of other state have that in law have in *addition* ban on discrimination. Example : illinois they do indeed have a freedom fo religion act, but at the same time they have a ban on discrimination based on sexual orientation. And as far as i can tell, when both conflict, the ban would take precedence.
NASA, JAXA and similar outfit drool at the perspective to have a long term project where they need to send a lot of cargo up, means a lot of contract and assured budget.
Those folk tells the space solar collector are possible and desirable.
The folk at energy production on the other hand use a calculator for cost of setting up, maintaining compared to generated energy and they usually view that as possible but not profitable compared to a similarly sized (in megawatt) installation on earth with physical batteries.
Sorry I i trust far more than who are involved i energy generation, than those involved into profiting by cargoeing the stuff.
Those made up example with the family van and the walker are laughable. Firstly out of my experience you do not have time while being in an accident to think that far as to check & see the family van is full of children. You steer , brake, and do as much as you can to avoid the walker. And the van. Secondly you really think there is even a concurrence ? The walker will get the full hit of the kinetic energy in his body. The van will absorb part of it in its structure. What sort of SICK FUCK would hit the walker rather than the van because there are children in the van ? There is no photo finish : You steer to avoid all, and if you cannot, you try to hit the target which will get the less physical damage from your damn car *if you can think that fast*. Does not matter if the walker is an old 99 guys and the van full of the brim of puppies and babies. I expect any automated car to make the same damn calculation : between hitting a car and a walker, go for the car. Hit the one with the most protection.
If i see a terrorist taking a pilot hostage, fuck it, I rush him, even if I get gunned down. And far more if they have only plastic or ceramic knife. You would have to have far more bullet than 100+ passenger to be able nowadays to do that, or a bunch of terrorist with weapons. Is the high security door *that* necessary anymore ?
" He argues instead that in a historical context, human activity has saved the planet, declaring that "at 400 parts per million, all our food crops, forests, and natural ecosystems are still on a starvation diet for carbon dioxide."
Our crop are starved from other stuff than carbon. if carbon was the problem only, we would put carbon in our fertilizer. But we don't what provocated an explosion of food production was not the CO2 increase during industrial revolution up to today, but NPK fertilizer (nitrogen, Potassium, phosphorus).
While it is true that plant growth would increase as a whole, our crop would still be far more dependent on fertilizer than CO2. And then there is the impact of the change of climate on the zone where the top soil is best for crop growth. If the winter and summer become more extreme, wheat growth might hit a water problem. What good is CO2 if you have not enough water to fix it ?
Again, in germany EVERYBODY can become taxi driver, there is no medaillon no licence you can become a taxi driver in my city jsut by having the proper insurance the proper driving license and make sure you kilometer counter is checked to make sure you do not cheat. again do not think your local US regulation apply in other country there is next to no regulation for taxi in germany : everybody can be one. The only stuff I recall are that when night tarif start and end, who can park at the airport, and which driving line taxi can take. Nothing about incubent and established company.
As said time and time and time voer and voer and it is really boring to repeat:
EVERYbody can be a taxi driver in germany providwed they buy the commercial insruance and get a special driver licence and get their coutner verified by the government the last one being to make sure you do not count 900 meters to be 1 kilometer. Inflating price. So this is not about established player this is about making uber respect the law. Law as you amy not above does not really protect incumbent as the cost to be a taxi driver are minimal.
Nothing could do more damage to that movement than exposing that Das Fuhrer had the language skills of a middle school American sleeping through their first semester German class."
More than 10 million book copy were given away by the end of the war. It did not stop his rise. Neither did it help it falls. I keep hearing that showing people how bad the stuff is will actually work in favor of better udnerstanding and whatnot. All I see is actually is actually extremist spreading their stuff and nobody laughing at them , expect those which were *already* laughing at them before the spread of their toxic stuff. I am not advocating censorship I am simply stating : what you wrote is actually most probably bullshit.
There are two ways to speak a non native language : translate every sentence in your head and run into the problem you indicate, or master it without constantly translating and your way of thinking will be sooner or later the same as a native. Once you start dreaming, thinking, in the other language, chance is that you are actually using very similar or even identical structure as the locals. Language is no hexenkunst.
"In short, nothing in science proves the earth is older than 10,000 year old". Only if you posit miracle or posit fundemmental principle of physic are wrong/changed. Firstly proof is for math. In science we speak of evidence. For example Car start is seen at point A , car is seen at point B. both point at 60 mph. Accelerometer on board show zero deceleration and zero acceleration. What speed was the car between point A and B ? If you answer 60 mph, congratulation you used science and you showed earth billion year old. Why is that ? Well see, we have this things called radioactive elements, like uranium , thorium, etc.... And for those the isotopes decay at a certain statistical rate. And thus by seeing the quantity of such element left, the quantity of daughter element, we can estim ate how long it was there. The only way out of that conundrum is : 1) posit miracle 2) state that physic changed in the mean time 3) a cosmic joke by all gods human worshipped making a new earth looking like an old one. It is quite clear for anybody reading this, that all those 3 answers are belief answers, and none of them are scientific or even rational. It is like positing that the car was at 80 mph between point A and B despite no acceleration, because gods, whichever let us say Baast, made it so. Irrational.
The only valid conclusion with all the FUNDEMMENTAL premises we have now, is that the earth is far far older than 10K. Billion of year old.
We have seen abuse over abuse stappled over abuse in the last decade. At some point you start to WORRY a little bit especially with young children very weak to suggestion and advertising. That's not luddism, which would be rejection of ANY improvement, that's called being a realistic fuck which learned and lived through the last decade.
If as an handicapped you are forced into another place not ready for you, in some case meaning you block the car circulation or get out where a lot of car go, then you are *effectively* putting somebody in danger by taking the handicapped spot. As for being an asshole due to not having plate, why not use the european system ? You just get given a "I just bought the car" temporary license plate easily recognizable by anybody (given by the car dealer), and you have to put one within time. We have no car whatsoever without licence plate here around.
