Because God knows what we could do with all that electricity! What, run a few BILLION of those newfangled electric lights? They're dangerous, I tell you!
The MBR lock was unusable for me almost from day one because I used to dual-boot OSes. Anybody who uses a boot manager (including LILO or GRUB) will probably get a popup every time.
Radiant hot water systems use a lot less electricity. Each circulator uses less than 100W, which is less than 1/5 HP. You also get some heat even when the circ isn't running, which is why thermostats have to be set up with more anticipation.
Gas is the most common in the cities and some suburbs, while the rural areas and more remote suburbs use oil. Areas in Pennsylvania coal country may still use coal. It's not as bad as it sounds, because these are often modern oil/coal burners with stokers and PA coal is anthracite.
I have one from Comcast that DOES turn itself on. Still, it's a little annoying because you still can't turn it OFF while it's recording a show, or it will cancel the recording. And it won't politely turn itself off once it's done unless you haven't tried to turn it "on" during the process. But it's still better than yours. You should call them and ask if you can swap yours out. I know that I was able to swap my old monster-sized standard digital cable box for the new compact one a few years ago for no charge.
Toggle switches? Luxury! In my day, we manipulated individual electrons with a tiny set of tweezers! And I had to use a magnetized needle for the core memory!
This was a "lesson learned" from a customer's complaint of an awkward situation where he had already chewed the Shuffle to a point sufficient for ingestion, but at that moment realized that actually swallowing it is prohibited.
Besides the fact that you're an ignorant troll, it isn't "100% safe". Maybe 90%... you wouldn't want to operate machinery, and I'm sure there are impurities in the smoke that would be harmful to a lesser extent than tobacco.
In other words, it helps restore the proper function of the Constitution. Fortunately, it WOULD immediately make marijuana legal in several states that already have laws on the books explicitly making it legal (or have never had any making it illegal).
"Killing all the humans"... I won't even touch that remark. But a motorized vehicle is useless unless it can carry more than a bicycle. People expect to be able to have some passengers and cargo, and be protected from the elements.
Wow; I see you also have no idea what a libertarian is. The problem is that what we call a libertarian used to be a liberal, but FDR redefined the word in his Newspeak-like way to mean someone who likes lots of government interference in the economy.
Because the GP poster is a fool who only knows what Jon Stewart and Moveon.org have told him, which is that libertarians are evil. Since conservatives are also evil, he assumes they must be the same thing.
You are either a troll, or simply have poor reading comprehension. What happened to Turing was, unfortunately, expected due to the laws in effect in the UK at the time. The GP poster tried to point out that he was not sympathetic with the words you actually quoted (emphasis mine), "It was therefore right (in the sense of the community he was working in/for)".
Don't feel too badly about your mistake; you're still not as foolish as the people who modded you up to +5.

Keep telling yourself that. If we were slipping to the "right", we would have a shrinking government, not a growing one.

Windmills? Well, at least they'll have grain.
ManBearPig for President?
So it's Germany retreating in fear while France attacks the problem? What a change 70 years make.
That feature does exist on many motherboards. It just isn't used.

And now they're takin' some shit!

Well, I can safely say in the case of the pharmacy that it is the citizens, through the jury, who FAILED MISERABLY.

Indica.
Like the Special Olympics, right?
Once it's gone, if you call its name three times it'll pop right back!

You clearly have no idea what a libertarian is. Please stop using the word.

To rely on the federal government, I suppose.
