Well, the trick is to use the first letters of the words. For example, imagine the sentence you've chosen is "No one knows the passwords I have seen!" That would make a password of "N1ktpIhs!" - short enough to fit most restrictions, and yet good enough that nobody would have guessed it. And as long as you can remember the sentence, you can reconstruct the password.
The NASA logo itself is also not in the public domain, so you can't sell knockoff NASA tshirts.
I'm pretty sure the NASA logo is a trademark, so for making T-Shirts it shouldn't matter at all whether it is in the public domain. You'd still infringe on the trademark.
I have no idea what certivity is, but I'm sure the basic income the parent post mentioned would be in dollars, which certainly would pay your bills (unless your bills are too high), as well as enable you to buy food for you and your cats.
Which won't work when the people who make human and cat food don't have to do their jobs to get paid.
The premise was that it will be the robots who make the human and cat food.
I guess there will continue to be a demand of human hookers, even if sex bots get more advanced. So probably the oldest profession will also be the longest-lasting.

Quite the opposite. There's nothing causing more fear than the government found downplaying the danger. As soon as the government is found downplaying, all claims by the government that there's no or only little danger completely lose any credibility they may have had, and people assume the worst.
Do the letters have different values for the versions sold in different countries with different languages? For example, there are many more words with Y in English than in German. So one could argue that for German versions, Y should be more valuable than for English ones.
If they don't do such language adaptions, there's no reason to adapt specifically for the English language. Indeed, it might even be that the current values are the result of some averaging over different languages, so no language has a big advantage or disadvantage.
I assume when someone states "traveling faster than FTL"
... that he is confused. "FTL" means "faster than light", thus "faster than FTL" means "faster than faster than light" which simply doesn't make sense.
Not to mention that the actual paper doesn't speak about FTL at all, let alone hyperspace, but about what you'd see if you were flying at a speed really really close to (but still below) light speed.
Given the amount of spelling errors in that post, I assume that the dollar sum was a spelling error, too. The first "7" probably should have been a dot, making the total sum $5.73, which isn't too impressive.;-)
Clothing donations are a bad idea anyway because they destroy local markets and thus make the people in those countries poorer than they were anyway. An intelligent way to help would be to collect money and then use that to buy clothes in the very country where they are then given to the poor. This not only gives the poor immediately clothes, but in addition improves the local economy so that there will be fewer poor people in the future.
That's exactly the point. Such a big deal was made about Columbine that it will be in everybody's mind forever (I'll bet you can still recall the names of the two shooters, but that's another problem in itself). It masks the fact that 3x as many children died in car accidents on the same day.
Had all these accidents been caused by one and the same person, I'm sure it also would have made big news.
There's no base starting with I. Only A, T, C and G (and U if you add RNA; however the makers of the movie obviously didn't consider that).
However when choosing the name, they ignored the rule that bases come in groups of three. So a better name would have been "Gataca", with only one "t".
There's already plenty of female robots and characters you can bang.
Or Clang, as the case may be.
Clang? The compiler? Ah, I get it, to program the sex bot. I guess the geek sex bots have a built-in terminal, and the conversation begins with: "How do you want it, Emacs or vi?"
Except that there's the chance that the self-taught electronics enthusiast builds systems which work fine under normal conditions, but fail under extreme conditions. I'd not want to drive in a car whose electronics is built by a self-taught electronics enthusiast.
If you are developing your first project and it flops, you're toast. If you are developing your tenth project and it flops, the other nine products will probably keep your company running regardless.

One would hope that in 4.5 billion years, we'll have figured out space travel.

I'm pretty sure this has been done before.
Indeed.
OK, it's slightly above $50 and has no Bluetooth.

That's not a grammar error. The sentence as written is formally correct, it just doesn't have the meaning the poster probably intended.

Make people think we might die from a lack of radioactivity. Then they can say: "Thanks to Fukushima, we are safe now." :-)

I agree. If you don't see enough vertical code, get rid of your old 14" screen.
Learned something new today, thank you.
Thought about installing a GSM and WiFi jammer?
Personally I don't mind, hate people using phones during any gig...
Why should he install a device which gets him into legal trouble if his simpler method is very effective?

About ten atoms.
What about thunderstorms?
