sure it effects everyone else. There's a large infrastructure supporting the illegal coke industry from slavers in the source countries, to drug runners to dealers and junkies in the destination countries. It causes murder, loss of liberty, loss of property and all sorts of terrible things.
Or are you one of those people that thinks that coke isn't addictive and won't ruin your life?
Now if you grew your own leaves, extracted the product in your barn and snorted it with friends at a party, then sweet. And you also won't have anyone else to blame if it causes problems.
The Tibble Twins Arthur babysits are human, as is the Tibble Twins grandmother. I believe they are the only humans in town.
Pretty much every adult couple in the show is mated to the same species, and any children are true to the species of the parents. BUT Arthur's generation, sweethearts are not the same species.
Loads of interesting ways to analyse these relationships.
this is a political problem not an engineering problem.
We could switch the world's energy needs to algae based bio fuels and completely eliminate the need to drill for oil to fuel vehicles and heat homes in just a few years if we really wanted to, and the freaking governments and oil lobbies would get out of the way.
I sometimes wish the LED household lightbulb suppliers would offer a bulb-of-the-month club. I want to subscribe, pay the $25/month for 1 bulb a month, and like Netflix, put a stack of bulbs in my queue. When they come in, swap out the old incandescent or CFL for the LED bulb and be done with it.
The scheme saves the trouble of saving up the bux to order them all, or (heaven forbid) actually going online once a month to place an order.
Either way, you've replaced all your bulbs after a short time, and when you move, take them with you.
WTF is up with mods lately, there's no way your post is trolling, at least that I can tell, you're asking perfectly reasonable questions and making perfectly reasonable statements.
And yes, with this openmoko phone you'll be able to ssh into your computer and restart your webserver and your motherfucker.
naw clearly an over-reaction on you and the next poster's part
it was short for humor's sake but it's not that complicated. Yeah, maybe a few more commands to cover the machine to machine communication process if you have any, but I'm more of the hub and spokes approach to mass handling of boxes kinda guy anyway. I have several hundred in production now, but other jobs I have managed thousands of faceless nameless hosts. The looping through lists of hostnames from a text file, automating key generation and changing and all that works pretty well especially if your hosts aren't intercommunicating, but even if they are, it's just a long string, perl -pi -e 's/huge string/different huge string/g'/root/.ssh/known_hosts or authorized keys or whatever works pretty fast. and if you have to paste in "yes" a few hundred times then you did something wrong and should write an expect script to take care of it.
for host in `cat hosts.change` do
ssh -t $host ssh-keygen -t dsa -f id_dsa.pub done man ssh-keygen to see how to do this while supplying the passphrases on the command line
ignoring the dark humor, those people choosing their beliefs has nothing to do with their ability to reproduce or genetic mutations giving advantage to those with the trait. At best, it's a behavioural disadvantage, but not giving your children antibiotics didn't stop the human species from surviving to the early 20th century, so clearly it won't stop these people from surviving either.
It's not like their choosing to fly without the aid of technology, together, at once, off a high cliff.
if every single one of those 1/2 million burst into flames and left a small greasy smoking crater where they are at this very moment, I doubt the world would pay attention long enough to make it to the next news cycle.
That means they're a small sect./fifedrum's sect measuring yard stick...
but it's still not duplicating the metal parts and the circuits required to drive the copy so it's not duplicating itself so much as printing off plastic casts of parts for a duplicate to use, significant difference between the two states.
a) perfect working copy b) partial copy
don't get me wrong, it's an awesome device and hell who couldn't use a rapid prototyper at home? I know I could!
Mars. Going to need that superconductor for the maglev trains circumnavigating the globe at the equator and to build city-block-sized factory factories.
they're called fines and gets into all our equipment, even in the pressure domes you need eye drops and you can just taste the dust. Once the next few water-heavy asteroids come in, the pressure will raise and hopefully the fines will bind to the water vapor volume and form clouds eliminating part of the problem.
AC you have no idea what's going on. Put three vehicles in front of an American, one that gets 30 MPG of biofuel grown domestically from desert algae farms, one that runs on electricity alone (and at the same cost/mile) and one that runs on $6/gallon arab oil and see which one they choose. I'll bet it's close to 100% first two.
yes, and they should plant it in the green spaces in and around airports to add to the local bio-fuel depot, and we should move down-wind so when the jets sit on the tarmac and run up the engines, and the hemp burns we can get the benefit.
not the same carbon footprint, you're not taking carbon from long-term sequestered sources and releasing it into the atmoshphere, you're taking carbon from the atmosphere and recycling it with sunlight as the catalyst.
riiight, love the Chinease government, who will undoubtedly deploy these on those fierce budhist monks and mothers trying to feed their children, or those nasty demonstrators who want democracy and a little freedom from the outrageously corrupt central government, who can blame them for wanting to use less than lethal force, like that tank that drove over the demonstrator in Tienamen Square all those years ago. Lethal force removes the organ donor from the roles, and eliminates valuable slave labor from the camps! So on with the non lethal stuff, and pile another corpse on the pyre later, when they're worked out and harvested.
one of the stories has the main character regrown from the neck down... how long until _that_ tech is available... it would be pretty sweet, decapitate, regrow body, rinse, repeat

or when the courts thought that abortion should be legal?
oh, that's right, only the liberals get to play the moral superiority card, the other side is always wrong no matter how disgusting the practice.
abortion = slavery

no, Phobos was dropped from the sky in '61 and Deimos ejected from orbit a few dozens of years later

the deserts of this nation are quite close to the Pacific Ocean, compared to the Great Lakes or Mississippi and her tributaries.
A pipeline from the Pacific wouldn't be _that_ expensive.
nonesense, you can grow algae under controlled conditions in desert factories, no currently tillable land needs to be converted at all.
