You don't use your legs for that idiot. You use your core muscles. None of the muscles in the leg can squeeze the arteries nearly hard enough to achieve anything useful, especially at 9G.
"Furthermore, he rise of the answering machine tells us that the phone as a critical mode of communication is not all it was cracked up to be."
Sure. If you suffer from Aspergers. The rest of us however quite enjoy "synchronous direct speech" and I'd far sooner lose SMS and email than the actual phone functionality. If all I wanted was a computer I'd just carry around a wifi tablet.
Most rolling roads don't spin the non powered wheels, so if the powered wheels are spinning and the others are stationary for any length of time its a good bet its having some sort of test. Obviously this isn't going to work with 4WD however.
And that'll tell them what? Plus I'd think you'd soon notice someone standing outside your property every day or for hours at a time and if they did they'd probably find out more about your habits than any meter will tell them.
Oh please. It doesn't store a minute by minute graph of your power usage. It simply sends a short range broadcast of your current meter reading when interrogated. It just saves the meter guy/girl knocking at your door. There are reasons to be paranoid these days, but this isn't one of them.
Because the sort of people who advocate Open Source no matter what probably haven't even been around 30 years and don't really understand that having freely available source code to your remotely installed infrastructure probably rates alongside selling My LIttle Pony meter stickers in the list of importance.
Rotting meat smells foul wherever it came from. Most people wouldn't hang around to analyse the bouquet and try and figure out if it used to be Granny.
..is fine, right? When you're trying to sell Windows to the public as a one size fits all OS yet its apparently not good enough to run the network of their own Premier cloud service thats not a problem?
Give me a break, this has embarrassing U-turn written all over it.
Apparently an out of work scientist Probably because you can't get your facts right. Photosynthesis is 3-6% efficient. Not great but considerably more than you were suggesting.
Whatever makes you happy. Clearly your narrow mind has only just comprehended bitcoin and has zero ability to consider other methods. As for my posting history, at least people bothered reading it. You've barely ever been modded at all. Probably because you're posts are so laughably ignorant.
Ok, lets do it in crayon. The idea of mining is to discover a valid block. This is done by using an SHA based matching algorithm which - eventually - will find a valid new block.
The banks however just generate blocks with their own random id's, DO NOT provide an algorithm to match these ids, DO NOT release them unless they want to AND IF they see an unreleased block out in the wild then its obviously a forgery and police are called.
Now, please explain how mining works in that above scenario which I originally mentioned and you clearly didn't fucking read.
Don't be silly. Mining was a side effect of the algorithmic design of bitcoin. For a completely new system the blocks could all be created in advance using random numbers and allocated on a need basis. If someone manages to guess an unreleased block and uses it then the police are called.
Apparently the surface temp is -38C in the sun. I doubt thats cold enough to stop ice subliming over the eons if exposed to vacuum so if it is ice its probably relatively newly exposed.
Just stick with a standard please. An extra few percent compression or whatever for certain specific video types in one specific browser is an irrelevant waste of time. Use your programmers effort for something more productive please MS. Bug fixing would be a good start.
Hopefully not with puppies! But you can just imagine kids pissing about pushing stuff in front of self driving cars and watching them do an emergency stop then just standing in front so it won't move and giving the occupants the finger. And to anyone who says they won't - kids already play chicken with human driven cars.

Alternately - they switch between tasting of one and the other. Obvious really.
.. but hey, it saves you having to press the manual fast forward button a few times! Well they've sold it to me!
Not. What a joke.

I wonder if Apple would ever consider moving OS/X away from Intel and over to ARM, allowing them to use their A series CPUs? If not, why not?

This would be what the rest of the world knows as dynamic loadable libraries would it?

"eep the exuberance of youth tied to the farm?"
Well its a good thing some kids stay on the farm or we'd all be rather hungry. But I take your point.
"(I'm a scientist)."
"I live in a desert."

Oh FFS, are you truly this stupid?

And using random block id numbers would preclude transactions because....
Take your time.
Don't worry about it. You obviously only know bitcoin and can't think outsdie the block. So to speak.
Even if life isn't rare , theres no guarantee that the random steps that led to a human civilisation that can create radio signals, ie:
life -> multicellular life -> dinosaurs -> asteroid impact -> mammals -> apes -> humans -> civilisation -> farming -> nation states -> discovery of coal seams -> metal refining -> industrial revolution -> electronics revolution
would ever happen anywhere else either in another order or at all.
There may be plenty of life in the universe but I suspect the number of technological civilisations is tiny.

You might not get a choice one day. Watch some of the car crash videos on youtube for examples.
