Louis C.K.: Those were simpler times I think. I just feel like, we may be going back to that by the way, but ah, in a way good because when I read things like the foundations of capitalism are shattering I'm like maybe we need that. Maybe we need some time where we're walking around with a donkey with pots clanking on the sides, ya know.
Conan O'Brien: You think that that would just bring us back to reality.
Louis C.K.: Ya, because everything is amazing right now and nobody's happy. Like in my lifetime the changes in the world have been incredible. When I was a kid we had a rotary phone. We had a phone you had to stand next to and you had to dial it, (yes) you know. You know, you ever realize how primitive, you're making sparks in a phone and you actually would hate people with zeros in their numbers 'cause it was more (right) oh, this guy's got two zeros, screw that guy, why do I wanna, ugh... and then if, if they called and you weren't home the phone would just ring lonely by itself. And then when, if you wanted money you had to go in the bank for (yes) when it was open for like three hours. You had to stand in line, write yourself a check like an idiot, and then when you ran outta money you just go, well I can't do any more things now (yeah, right) I can't do any more things (that's it, yeah) that was it. And, and, and even if you had a credit card they, the guy'd go ugh and he'd bring out this whole shunk, shunk and he'd write and he'd have to call the president to see if you had any money.....
Conan: It's all true kids. You had to call the president, yeah. It was rediculous. (yes) Do you feel that we now, in the 21st century, we take technology for granted.
Louis C.K. Well, yeah, 'cause now we live in, in an amazing, amazing world and it's wasted on the, on the crappiest generation of just spoiled idiots that don't care because, this is what people are like now. They got their phone and they're like eeaagh, it won't, give it a second! Give it, it's going to space, would ya give it a second to get back from space, it's the speed of light, it's true, it's true. (yeah) I was on a, I was on an airplane and there was internet, high speed internet on the airplane (yes) that's the newest thing that I know exists. And I'm sitting on the plane and they go open up your laptop and you can go on the internet and it's fast and I'm watching YouTube clips it's amazing. I'm in an airplane and then it breaks down and they apologize the internet is not working and the guy next to me goes pua this is bull****. Like how quickly the world owes him something (yes) he knew existed only 10 seconds ago (right, right) and on planes....
Flying is the worst one because people come back from flights and they tell you their story and it's like a horror story. It's, they act like their flight was like a cattle car in the 40's in Germany. (yeah) That's how bad they make it sound (right). They're like it was the worst day of my life. First of all we didn't board for 20 minutes (right) and then we get on the plane and they made us sit there on the runway for 40 minutes. We had to sit there. Oh really, what happened next? Did you fly through the air incredibly like a bird? Did you partake in the miracle of human flight, you non-contributing zero? Wow, you're flying! It's amazing! Everybody on every plane should just constantly be going, oh my God, wow (yes) you're flying, you're, you're sitting in a chair in the sky (yes, yeah, yeah) but it doesn't go back a lot. And it smells really. You know, here's the thing. People like they say there's delays on flights (yeah) delays really New York to California in 5 hours. That used to take 30 years to do that and a bunch of you would die on the way there and have a baby. You'd be with a whole different group of people by the time you got there. Now you watch a movie you take a dump and you're home.
Does this imply that if one hears "global warming warnings" 10 times/day vs "don't worry" once per day things are ten times worse than we thought? Go ahead, mod this down - you know you want to. It'll make you feel better, do it! Mod me into oblivion, you'll feel better in the morning and won't have to think for yourself! Just listen to the talking points and toe the line!
Much is said about the 5:1 tank ratio (Sherman:Panzer), which did have an impact for rapidly owning ground. Air superiority was the winner, as the Germans couldn't reliably resupply their own troops.
Rocket attacks from the Typhoons (and other similarly-equipped planes) on German armoured columns laid waste to reinforcement efforts.
Have you tried 3D visualization programs like what NavisWorks was?
Saying, "I use AutoCAD" sounds cool and techhy, but using it to draw 2D versions of your upcoming kitchen redesign vs. a refinery walkthrough are two different animals.
Oooh, nifty new interface. I wonder how that happened...
I'd like Apple more if it was cheaper and simpler to upgrade RAM on their laptops.
The unibody design sucks in that regard.
I think the transport thing might be more difficult, and I'm not one to say 'no' to more piping! Most of my (admittedly) limited experience with hydrogen is regarding LH2, not gaseous.
"Sit On My Face" and have a monument near the headstone. Perpetual recording playing only if the visitor sits in the right place (pressure plate activated).
The LH2 tankers are well-designed and the drivers highly trained. Many years ago I worked for a major industrial gas company as a designer and had a chance to look at the engineering drawings for a new tanker they were buying. Very impressive. At the time the cost was US$ 1 million.
Sure, but even after you adjust for cost of living, someone who makes $250k/year working in Manhattan still makes vastly more money a year (or has more disposable income, or however you would like to look at it) than most Americans, even if they're not living in mansions or anything.
It's the economy of scale concept again. Those who earn (relatively) more are (relatively) economically unhurt by higher taxes.

Graphically representing the more complicated mathematical concepts (and then working backwards) will help with education.

I prefer the original Twilight Zone and Outer Limits.
Very well said, sir.
"...perhaps even assassinating him or someone close to him as people including the Canadian prime minister have called for in public..."

Please check your facts, Doc.
Well then, this makes the event all that more noteworthy, obviously.

Will this development help with British smiles?

Your card has been auto-renewed, no need to send more money.

I have a MacBook Pro (dual booted with XP) and also don't have a tattoo. Should I be worried about my identity?
"use autocad".

Brilliant!
Yet it still gets enough ad or feed money to keep stumbling along, I've never been able to figure out this conundrum.
Sorry for the reply delay.

Funny, that is.
I agree completely. The 28s had a terrible battery door (now looking sadly at my dead 28s).
"Sit On My Face" and have a monument near the headstone. Perpetual recording playing only if the visitor sits in the right place (pressure plate activated).
That'd be even better than that famous Montreal inscription.
The point is that we have nearly infinite supply.
This also appears to be true regarding opinionated, vocal, ignorant Slashdot posters (I'm not referring to you).
BTW, "making" hydrogen is not easy.
Despite the much higher energy per volume...
Huh? Were you referring to hydrogen?
Obviously the design of this particular hydrogen transport trailer was a turkey.
The LH2 tankers are well-designed and the drivers highly trained. Many years ago I worked for a major industrial gas company as a designer and had a chance to look at the engineering drawings for a new tanker they were buying. Very impressive. At the time the cost was US$ 1 million.
There was a hydrogen plant explosion a few years ago.
My understanding is that "hydrogen flames" are invisible.
