Kinda makes a difference in the total amount of pollutants per mile... It is just that we don't measure it that way. We measure pollution per density, not pollution per work.
The CRX probably puts more pollutants into the air than the heavy Camaro.
At least you thought it was a guess when you said it, and it was an incorrect one. It puts out less pollution, but the pollution is more dense. As it is a smaller engine, it is pumping through less air (specifically nitrogen, the inert gas that makes up most "air) so the specific amount of pollution is diluted less. The Camaro pumps a lot of air, and fuel, so it is less dense. And all our measurements are on pollution density (parts per million) not gross quantity per mile. The fact that the CRX burns half the fuel per mile of the Camaro, means that there is simply half the carbon to work with so there will be less overall pollution per mile, even if it is less "clean" per cubic inch of exhaust.
The old cars are weeded out by the other "safety" inspection points:
Broken light? fail!
Shoddy suspension? fail!
Leak on any fluid? fail!
You can fix it, until you realize that your old car is costing you two grand every other year, just to pass obscure inspection points. So you get a newer less polluting one, or take the Metro.
The cars and parts makers love it, except that people now only buy if they have to.
I don't understand how the US hasn't caught up with this yet. When you see the deathtraps on US roads, it would be easy to line up car maker pockets with "safety" maintenance requirements. To "protect the children" of course...
In Houston (and most medium to large cities in the US) we have similar standards and requirements. And in our house we have a 2007 Subaru, and a 1988 Toyota Pickup (Hi-Lux to the rest of the world) that we drive daily. Guess which one runs better, and costs less to maintain? Let me give you a hint... When it is time for a new car, the Subaru is going... And the "New" car may be more mature than you think.
Houston has a few million people and is a poster child for broken mass transit. There is no way to get around without a car, and most of them are actually trucks with large engines. Yet, we don't have the pollution problem of Paris, LA, Mexico City, or Beijing. Is it possible that pollution is slightly more complex than "It's all those evil cars!"
However, the other big difference is travel. Today, almost any one can go any place in the world quite quickly. This gives governmental competition, and creates a safety valve of sorts. Anyone doing something different (Like Icland and the banking crisis) has the ability to attract productive people. And countries that try to hard to distribute income have the ability to lose them.
Or you can use a real router that allows you to say what DNS is handed out in DHCP. Which they used to do, but no longer allow. And now some are even capturing any port 53 traffic and sending it to 75.75.75.75...
First hit on google... http://www.buzzfeed.com/ryanha... I literally see them daily on my FaceBook. But a person who stops a crime with a gun, but where no one is actually shot, does not make for clickbait news...
I am sure that you are sure. But they keep stats on this and the number is amazingly low. Link for all of Texas for the entire history of our CHL it is still in the single digits. I would bet you would have a hard time finding 20 chl holders in the entire US that committed a crime with a gun.
Unless you are talking about people illegally carrying a concealed handgun. You know... Like the criminals...
Totally agree here. Comcast has always had DNS problems, and I never recommend using them for DNS.
However, now that both Comcast and ATT are forcing you to use their router, and their router does not allow you to change DNS, this is much more of a problem.
The thing is that as a Linux sale you have no value. You would by the game without the port, so there is no value in porting the game for you. The people of value are the ones who will not by the game unless it has a Linux version. Hopefully, as Linux gaming becomes more viable, less people will be willing to run Windows just to play games. Publishers need to see a financial hit for not supporting Linux before they will spend serious money to do so.
just look at all the mass shootings, despite all this dick measuring about the need to have guns not one of those gun toting citizens ever has the balls to actually get in the firing line when shit goes down but the american solution is "need more guns!".
It literally would only take a few seconds to find hundreds of cases where someone with a concealed handgun stopped a mas shooting. But I am sure you don't actually want any facts to interrupt your rhetoric...
The replacement for tape is different tape. Optical media isn't going to catch up to the data densities or transfer rates that tape has to offer any time soon. The (kinda old) LTO4 changer I use for my personal stuff handles 800GB/tape and only needs about three hours per tape. This new disc format isn't even going to be competitive with an eight year old tape spec.
Tape may be faster to write for now, (They never said the speed...) a single file restore will not be. Especially if it is towards the end of the tape. THis has alwayse been the limiting factor of tape.
If it stays just archival storage, something that is desperately needed, then there is no need for DRM, and no barriers to adoption. If they try and make it a video standard and bring content producers on-board, they are doomed. But if not, they stand to make a LOT of money as we are desperately in need of a replacement for tape.

Also MPG != emissions.

Time to buy a few RealDolls.
No, really Mom! It's for the car pool!
The standards keep getting better fast.

And what will the rental car companies do?

It is already there. You can run the steam client (Which running on Debian IS the Steam OS) on most major distributions out there. And it works.
That said, newer isn't always better.
A lot of Windows 8 users would agree with you!

This was not the case in the first few bundles. You know... Beck when not all of the games were plat-formers and side scrollers...
If you can. The new routers they are forcing you to use do not allow you to change DNS.

For one, hard drives are a tad fragile to mail... And as backup device left unpowered, they have known reliability problems.

This leaves me with one question: What's an ESR?
I wonder if there is a link up there somewhere that could answer that for you? Like at the beginning of the article...
Not the newbies, but the clueless. After all, the new will not always be new, but the clueless will always be clueless.
Other than it says it was from the Washington Post... http://www.washingtonpost.com/...
