this has nothing to do with trademark, there is no stolen trademark. look & feel protection is pointless and has been struck down again and again by smarter courts
or, in the case of monsters mentioned in article, a bullet into the head shortens sentence to less than a day real time, and no extra expense thereafter
you're confused, if there is no attempt to deceive, if the item is known not to be similar expensive name-brand, there is no issue with "cheap knock off". I'd rather have a $25 meter that can do 90% of what a $500 one can do because I can't afford to blow $500 on a meter.
That customs agent is a despicable tool of big corporations keeping us enslaved. to hell with him
we don't even need such advanced technology of putting human mind in machine, just remote probes.
Consider a "smart" weight probe with weight in milligrams or less. we could fire stream of those at substantial fraction of lightspeed to another system, at destination they could act as phased array transmitter, and relay signals back to other bunches of probe along the way and eventually back to earth.
i agree, however we're not smart enough like other nations to be researching or building the reactors that can't melt down, make no long -term waste (as in decay in decades rather than millenia), and that can even burn our enormous cache of cooling pond and cask "spent fuel"
last I checked everyone there benefits from the electriicty Duke makes, of course utilities get special treatment. any financial punishment of Duke would just raise your electric bill, they are called "Utilities" for a reason
indeed, and even if we confined ourselves to worst coal slurry accidents in 1972 there were 125 killed, over 1000 injured and 4000 left homeless in the so-called Buffalo Creek Flood in Logan County, West Virginia
just drop Facebook already and get account with your frineds on small largely unknown social networking site, there are hundreds of them. Facebookk was a passing fad that more and more people are leaving behind because of its intrusive practices
because you stupidly make your own definition of "spent fuel" ignoring what the commercial nuclear power industry calls "spent fuel". The spent fuel in cooling ponds and casks is 96% fissionable and/or breedable fuel that can be used in a properly designed reactor.
"Spent fuel" from U.S. commercial reactors contains 94 percent U-238, 0.9 percent U-235 and 0.8 percent pu-239. ALL of that can be "burned" in a properly designed reactor, and moreover long-lived isotopes from those reactions can be converted to short lived ones.
it's really sad to see comments from those who can't accept reality, you'll live less than nine decades and die. your imagination will not help you, technology will not change this.
Even in greco-roman times people who took care of their health lived into their 70s.
cleaner nuclear power is solved problem, we already know how to make reactors that can burn "spent fuel" and leave waste that decays in decades rather than millenia. smarter countries are pursuing that, but the USA just extended life on its 2nd gen reactors that were designed in the late 1950s, can melt down if not externally cooled, and make waste that will last longer than any civilization has.
why do you hate them so much? A legitimate target for atomic bomb could have naval bases such as Yokosuka. but you prefer tens of thousands of incinerated civilians.

google. has a start page now, with nice menu of different services. what's the problem?
most other companies have competitors, that's why
nonsense, only a moron would confuse that with a Fluke. and worst case even that moron would spend a little money to get a working meter
they kill off trial balloons only used by geeks who live on pizza in their mom's basement. so what?
so you buy into the farce that information can be "owned". that of course is nonsense, this employee proved it.
i'm ok with device that destroys phones with obnoxious ringtones. I'd like to bring one on the train with me in the morning

bullshit, more lives saved and extended and given modern life of luxury through the use of fossil fuels than any other technological action of man

You are very ignorant.

generational starships or just time dilation by going near speed of light, don't need longer lifespan for space travel

actually, those Hebrew writer in the Bible had more accurate calendar than we do, lunar calendar (e.g. Chinese, Jewish) trumps solar one
I was only addressing situation in USA.
but that fibre aren't yet available with iridium plating on the connectors for crisp bright treble

I must say these 800GB fiber bundles give very molten and sonorus bass notes below 64 hz.
