Sorry, that tired old horse argument doesn't hold because the black hole formed in the cosmic ray case not at rest in the earth frame as one created at the LHC will be.
The Giant Suck will get us all! We're DOOOOMED. DOOOOOOMED I tell you!
what happens when you start clicking on links in your google search result set, and they are all from porn sites of a certain genre, which they'll see in your DNS requests.
As your browser loads ad crap, they might even see things in dns such as manboobbras.maceys.com
Wrong. With electric cars costing $10,000 more it's a no-brainer. The $400 for electricity is of no import. Electric cars are feel-good toys that are a waste of mony for people with budgetary constraints.
Nonsense, not cost-competitive at all. $22K gets you a sedan, 27 MPG in the city, for $1700 yearly gasoline bill at $3 a gallon and 15,000 miles. Burning hydrocarbons is clearly the superior choice for the family on a budget
How many of the new languages introduced to the world in the past 20 years have gained huge traction and massive user base? Java, PHP, C# (some would argue its just a warmed-over java though)...are there any others I forgot?
Plenty of "flash-in-the-pan" new langauges have come and gone, leaving just niche users.
our BEST and most widely accepted model, the Standard Model, has problems. The Higgs boson is too light, and in fact the lighter it is the further off the Standard Model is
cheap? those lung cancer patients are VERY expensive in their last year. Those obnoxious people with the filthy habit just don't die from their self inflicted diseases fast enough
Do you have any idea how WEAK that quote you posted is? "Concern" it "may" do this or that? Compared to the known deadliness of tobacco that unfounded nonsense is laughable.
The paragraphs leading up the "side effects" you list admit proper peer reviewed scientific studies on any harmfulness are very, very lacking.
I really don't know anyone that uses it. Mate, Cinnamin, KDE, xfce4....but no GNOME users.
I've Debian 8 testing with default desktop in a vm....GNOME still awful for me. Won't even talk about systemD troubleshooting which was the purpose of making that vm
The claimed goal in the article was " recording all the aspects of modern software and operating systems "
That means systems that make things, control things, track money, etc. Not just entertainment devices which are of far less import to future historians, archeologists, technologists, engineers, etc.
If you're only worried about things with popular appeal, I'd submit for consideration recording all extant porn would be of greater interest in future years than our games
Comparing number of gas stations to "charging points" (including in people's homes) is kind of like counting everyone with a fuel can for their motorcycle,weed whacker, or chainsaw as having a gas station.

You are. "Standard drinks" don't matter, ounce for ounce alcohol far more toxic than water

no problem, mirror the DNS traffic and feed to a snooper / logger
Probably all the large providers required to do this as part of the Waaaah on Terror anyway.
You are silly. Try eight 8 oz glasses of vodka and get back to us on how much safer than water that is.

Cars and washing are nothing a slashdot neckbeard living in mom's basement need worry about
That happened, you missed it. When Microsoft went to the Interix subsystem for Windows Services for Unix, much of the code was jacked from OpenBSD
beacons work just as well on https page as http, and they can see your DNS queries.

My distro is not jumping on the systemD bandwagon for the next year at least; and they have two far superior alternatives to that GNOME rubbish.
we've only looked for proton decay on the order of 10^34 years half-life, if it's larger there is no extant experiment that would see it.

You'd see a massive wobble! the center of mass of the Earth - Moon system is at 74% of the Earth's radius

Planets of earth sized mass (our hypothetical LHC-building self-immolators) cause perturbations in the orbits planets we can see

If true we would see black holes of planetary mass orbiting stars. But that is not the case, we see the usual rocky or gas giant planets.
Japan has about 70,000 gas stations, the USA has 121,000

yeah no one ever goes to see those temples in India and Pompeii...just a few milliion a year

GNOME? does anyone even run that shit after the GNOME team ruined it?
