$5-$10 per battery would go a long way to ensuring they were recycled without being overly burdensome on the consumer.
$5-10 per battery would be helpful and reasonable, but what of cells? I've got a flashlight that runs on 1x18650, what should I pay when I buy one of those cells?
Same. It's a deposit. You get it back when you recycle the cell eventually. Ditto for the bombs...er...batteries in ecigs. Most people aren't running around with a ton of those types of cells so it's still not a burden. Of course there the challenge is dealing with all of them coming in direct to consumers from China.
How would this really solve the problem? I saw people throwing old batteries in the trash on the regular, for as long as I can remember.
Require deposits on the batteries, that you get back when you turn them in to a recycler. $5-$10 per battery would go a long way to ensuring they were recycled without being overly burdensome on the consumer.
Nintendo has a history of being heavy handed when it comes to defending their IP, even when there is no real benefit to them for doing so. Not surprised in the slightest this happened.
" The case revolves around an ITAR (International Traffic in Arms Regulations) issue"
No, no it doesn't, as Progressive vs United States set when they published in print form how to make a thermonuclear bomb. This is unconscionable prior restraint as regarding the First Amendment and any other spin is exactly that, spin. Stop it.
Yes, it does. If you don't agree with it that's fine, but the core of THIS CASE is that the government used ITAR to prevent distribution.
The original case was based on ITARS (International Traffic in Arms Regulations) and the fact that the US Gov didn't feel that a domestic website could prevent any exfiltration of the files outside the US. There is nothing illegal about the files, it's international distribution (or the possibility of it) that is at the core of this. Personally I think it's stupid and that all the hand wringing is creating a Streisand effect around it more dangerous than if they had just let it be in the first place.
Very true. However this particular case isn't a 2A case to being with since there is no law banning these plans domestically. The case revolves around an ITAR (International Traffic in Arms Regulations) issue, where the feds said that making them available on a US website made them available to international users, and thus "export". I'm really not seeing how the states have standing on something like this, which is part of a power explicitly granted to the federal government.
And if the first one invested in the fall of 2017, then it would have worked had she sold at the peak in January. But she bought into the hype and instead of being rational about it she held on and now it's gone.
And if there is one thing that we know to be an absolute, universal truth it's this: Past performance is always indicative of future results. If it happened before, it must happen again.
So nothing exists until I have personally experienced it?
Correct.
With that world view, the uneducated, inexperienced, untraveled person cannot believe in anything but himself, or that which he assumes exists despite his rules.
Do you wash your hands? I bet you've never seen a germ.
Actually I have seen a "germ" before. Plenty actually. So pay up on that bet
Even better- have you personally met one of "them" from the government who is masterminding this conspiracy? If not, then they don't exist- and you are the one inventing it.
I have, and I'm talking to one of them now apparently. So just keep your moon people from the round planet fiction to yourself.
Have you ever personally used the ranging reflector? If the answer is no how do you know it's there? You only have "their" word that it is. If it's yes you obviously are part of the conspiracy. It's the simplest answer. As for the Japan lunar orbiter, obviously fake images provided by our allies to help sell the lies. Duh.
Wow, that sounds like a terrible decision. What happens if the pad gets damaged or you need to operate it with something other than the finger of the suit?
There is a 6th touch compatible surface on the crotch of the suits for male astronauts and auto-injected erectile drugs for emergencies such as the scenario you are eluding to where all their fingers spontaneously fall off their hands during launch.
Getting it back down and on target is the easy part, we are experts at doing that already. As for keeping it up there, we know how to do that too and it doesn't add all that much mass that we suddenly can't launch it. Your original statement was this: "The US doesn't even have the rockets to launch anything like a nuke" . Support it or shut it.
I stopped worrying about the cold air when realizing all the energy is in the food itself (and packaging) and the weight of lost air is rather minuscule. I'd rather let the stinky air out.
If you are hyper-concerned about energy usage, like the people in this scenario would be, you would care. You added heat to the system when you opened the door. The fridge is going to have to dispose of that heat, even if it's a small amount, to get back to its set point. Also keep in mind that it measures temp based on air, not the food or other solids inside. So that warmer air is going to kick on the compressor before it has a chance to cool by dumping it's energy into your food (and packaging). Not a huge concern with a modern fridge in a modern home, but if you are worried about and budgeting for every watt then yea, it is going to make a difference.
I'm not presuming, I'm stating what has been reported from the people using it. If the results are no better, and sometimes worse, than a human then it is wasting time and money. Having an under-performing co-worker doesn't make the rest of the team better. It makes them less efficient.
So again, Watson does about the same as a person would.
Except if you read up on it, it didn't. It did worse. In some cases giving out completely inappropriate treatment suggestions a newly minted oncology resident would know are bullshit. Much of this has been attributed to mistakes and biases made in its training.
We're talking about sending those things up into an orbit, which is by some margin more difficult than sending something on a ballistic trajectory. Also, we're talking about doing it in such a way that it can neither cause fallout locally nor start a nuclear war. Sorry, ballistic missiles are NOT good enough for either of these jobs.
First off they could easily deposit a payload into LEO if you reprogramming its flight profile. If you want it higher, you can put it into GEO with a Delta IV variant or Minotaur V (which you conveniently keep ignoring). Want to do it sneaky, use the Air Force X-37. Nukes are not that heavy, once you remove the launch vehicle. The X-37 could delivery a single warhead and launch sled to orbit.
One of the problems with a field like oncology (or medicine in general) is that the AI has to rely on training from humans, using source material generated by humans. Which leaves it with the same problem humans have: research is fast evolving, sometimes biased, incomplete, or experimentally flawed, and oftentimes contradictory from study to study. Seriously, just go look up any complex biomedical subject on pubmed and start reading studies. You will find results all over the place. This is why meta-analysis has become so popular, trying to find consensus in a contradictory jungle. Add in selection biases in its training (something articles have brought up when talking about Watson's oncology uses), and it's no wonder it's spitting out gibberish. The squishy sciences are squishy and amazingly complex.
Using chest refrigerators (like a chest freezer, but not as cold) would increase the efficiency quite a bit since they don't dump all the cold air out each time you open them.
How is it tax free? Dont know where you live, but in the US profits from trading currencies are still taxable. If it is in a tax free account then the fact that it is crypo is irrelevant. If not in the US I am curriuous town know the differences in how investments are taxed.
They think that they are clever and can avoid the IRS taking notice. And what the IRS doesn't know won't hurt them, right? Which might be true if they are truly careful. Sure, few of them actually are, they think they are but it only takes one screw up.
Oh, and never, ever, actually spend any of it in any real amount. But hey, they can enjoy their fortunes that they can never actually spend on anything meaningful.

Why would the states have standing Re: ITAR, when FED has determined they can be released?
No clue. I've been asking the same thing.

Interesting. This article is like a test to see who reads the summary vs just the headline.
But was that study replicated? How do we know THEY didn't cheat. It's just tinfoil hats all the way down.
So I guess we all have to hate the moon now? FUCK YOU NAZI MOON!

You should seriously make an appointment with a neurologist. An inability to identify sarcasm is an early sign of Frontotemporal Dementia.

Wonder how well it would work for building a wall......
