This article just proves that normally humans don't have a few weirdly developed muscles in a couple fingers for gripping a thin rod for hours. Good thing we're getting away from that abusive treatment of children to better tech solution. Keyboards and touch pads are a better way to do things the rubbing graphene on dead trees.
talking about financial institutions not buggy whip makers
yes it does depends on institutions. Telecom infrastructure which is under government regulation already in a number of ways. the government has a right to kick in your door if you use bitcoin for illegal activity.
hand coordination can be learned a myriad of better ways without holding a thin rod with a few fingers (which is provably harmful). what a stupid notion this article is trying to reinforce
literacy can be had without unnaturally grasping a thin rod for hours, that is unnatural and can cause health problems from blisters to carpal tunnel. let's get that stupid notion that skill with a pencil is necessary out of our heads
holding a thin rod for hours isn't natural, I remember cramps and blisters from having to write for hours. maybe we we've been abusing children for decades making them do that!
they aren't very competent astrophysicists if they think our sun is capable of a nova or supernova under any conditions. In short, they're blathering idiots.
Real physicists would welcome theory of our universe a thousand years in advance of ours. It would not end their jobs, by the way, though many *might* make move to practical application rather than theory. Theorists in any event would test and verify to see if there are any hints of a 1000 + x year model.
But your first world places have reservoirs, and some like California have new programs to store floodwater to lessen dependence on aquifers since that's a known issue in coming decades (solution is purely engineering problem).
Filtering water from lakes and reservoirs to excellent quality is a long solved problem, plenty of huge cities have that as norm
Subjecting exchanges to audit, investigation and subpoena by law. Actually working well with more traditional means of laundering money and evading taxes, regulating the same thing really.
A web / iphone developer shooting his virtual mouth off online about complex legal matters is claiming that people who don't follow his incorrect advice about I.P. protection are "assholes"?
Maybe the asshole is in your bathroom mirror, Marco.
In the meantime, patents are useful in the real world, the extremely small percentage of abuse articles we see on slashdot doesn't change that.
this patch was for meltdown only which doesn't affect AMD; note the situation for the various types of SPECTRE are a mess, even the chip makers are floundering around. Intel put out yet another new spectre variant firmware fix *yesterday*!
except you forgot one half of the issue, the length of the day which is irregular and can't be predicted over such a scale. That's why leap seconds can't be announced a year ahead of time, we don't know if one is needed
the only accurate calendars over that timespan are those that depend on astronomical observations that need to be done periodically in the future and can't be done ahead of time. doesn't matter what calendar is used, by 12018 it will be wrong
every year a flu or two or three jumps inter-species to humans. humans get bit by animals and get rabies. my my diseases have been jumping species to primates since the dawn of primates! too bad you weren't there when we could have stayed tree shrews!
pffft, only accidents with smartphones in Chicago I know of are people getting hit while walking across street in morning commute while engrossed in their toy. one dumb bitch even stepped into open sewer surrounded by warning signs while texting.

nothing hard about the normal Linux Mint install, the DVD is a live one so you can see if everything works before pulling the trigger on install. install is simple. a person can get fancy and start shell on desktop of the installer if they want to use LVM with disk which is advanced thing I do, but it's not necessary for average joe.

you're confused.

nonsense, climate isn't changing that fast. don't be misled by hoopla over weather.
reservoirs are being designed and built, aquifer recharging is now being done too. just engineering problems
nonsense, charging can be done in off-peak hours, in fact the grid is already ready to handle electric vehicles, charged mostly at night
guess what, in the USA you can sign a legal document electronically.

teardown via micrometeoroid ablation over millennia
they're not worried about you, they are worried about institutions big enough to affect economy and power structure.

The cracking down on *illegal* use of tax havens and laundering through foreign bank accounts has been very successful, billions of dollars recouped
Actually they get plenty of water, rains in buckets, but being it's a third world shithole they don't store it.

phone? pfft, my son is a gamer and his video card weighs more than my PC tower. he can't carry that around 24x7
I for one am glad to step on a cell phone in the middle of the night in my bare feet, rather than a truck or car toy

yes use the moon but why waste time printing? big things can be built with sheets and beams of metal smelted with solar energy.
