There is another hitch too the 3-10 years it takes to get to the target mine before you can setup operations.
Until we figure out faster space drives even mars is a long shot. The best bet to start off with is finding water and oil on the moon (oil to give a reason to go there)
The Ukrainians tossed yankovic twice. They didn't need western support. You analogy falls apart in reality. It would be more akin to Russia supporting the Mexican drug lords. (Though the Ukrainians that support Russia aren't nessecarily drug lords but oligarchs. )
Funny I have been reading both sides from the BBC for the last year.
The trick is Salmond isn't saying much. he has no plan B if various parts of his plans fail. He just isn't saying things like we would still use the sterling if the UK didn't want a currency union. He can't imagine a scenario where a currency union wouldn't be agreed to. or a scenario where Scotland wouldn't immediately become a part of NATO or the European Union. He thinks that every thing will stay exactly the same yet Scotland would be independent. That just isn't possible or realistic. Some one is going to tell him we aren't bending rules just for you after the Yes vote and Scotland will get screwed.
Salmond Thinks he can bypass all the EU rules regarding joining the union without having the currency just because Scotland was a part of the UK. All the EU has to do is tell him no on just that one point. And his whole plan will fall apart.
Hmm should the FDA relabel foods and drugs that way? Instead of May cause drowsiness. +10% chance of drowsiness. -7% to reaction time. +10% chance of delusions
On Tequilla 50% chance of hangover 12 hours later.
Local newspapers are the worst. My local newspaper give you ten free page views based on ip number and then locks you out.
I just get my news from other sources. Sooner or later they will go bankrupt. You can only pay the CEO millions o dollars a year for doing nothing for so long.
Considering that cable modems are $50 a month for capped services. Another 30% higher is nothing.
Considering that more viruses are transmitted by ads now than on their own it gets even scarier. Adblock and no script do more to keep viruses out of your stuff than antivirus.
The usenet was setup in 1980? 1981? I am willing to bet that at least by 1982 someone had sold a physical object to another usenet poster. Thus the internet has been corrupted for at least that long.
Yes and no. There were very few direct profits from the Apollo project. However it did spurn a ton of new ways of thinking and materials science that lead to profits for companies.
However a private company only cares about itself. It doesn't matter if dozens other companies make profit from your research and requests. So no Apollo would never have been done by private companies because it isn't profitable to them. This is why you have government projects. To fund the initial crazy ideas that may of May not fail themselves but lead to new ways of thinking.
If Apollo and NASA did t need smaller computers would IBM and Intel have ever been formed?
The ping times though would ensure you never actually got First Post though.
Besides by that point Slashdot beta would running full time, and Slashdot beta has user login timeouts in milliseconds. Or maybe that is just slashdot mobile.
Either way I use classic on all devices. it is the only way I can remain logged in for more than 5 seconds.
That's a side affect of schools only getting state and federal aid money for time kids spend in school. It is also why schools like to delay snow days as much as possible. And why they love half days. Both of which are miserable for parents who you know work for a living.
No gravity means lower blood pressure, which means a softer penis. And then comes the deed itself. Sex requires something for the man to push against while the woman prevents being pushed. However in space there is little to grab on to and your combined motion s will throw you both into things.
That being said I volunteer to try it out with nearly any woman who wants too.
Yep like image recognition, and audio recognition.
Oh wait.
Computers can do logical operations better yes. Computers can't do fuzzy math, real time image recognition or real time audio recognition. Let me know when a computer can "see" with a pair of cameras. Identify an object heading toward the cpu(not just the cameras) and adjust its motors to dodge the incoming. Bugs can do that much yet computers can't.
Little known fact electricity running through wires degrades the wires and the protective jacket on them.
Wires from a home built in the 1970's are often so brittle that they crumble. not just the jacket coatings but the copper itself. This is due to heat. Heat comes from resistance.
As you pass electricity through the wires they heat up and cool off. then you have summer heat, and wind storms, and eventually you get cables that snap. but before they snap they are discharging electricity into the air and anything around them.
Copper lasts longer than Aluminum. But in time both wear out. The bigger the cable and the lower the load the longer it lasts.
So yes the system is dated and fragile. Like bridges wires only get upgraded and replaced after they cause problems or fall down.
I won't even buy the DVD. for 90% of the movies i watch I wait for the $3.99 video on demand in standard definition. I have a nice HD TV but since most movies don't make use of it why should I bother paying more for something that should be standard by now.
Even ERP is a misnomer. I have used several different products that does that and each has it's own up and downs.
The biggest hurdle is generally changing internal processes to make use of the new software. The problem is 50% of people memorize absolute position rather than relative process. Ie every who complains about Msft ribbon memorizes the absolute position of procedures versus the process.

Yes that was done on purpose.

Well it is close to the Aero car in design.

probably after Europe does. There is after all twice as many europeans as Americans, and Europe is gaining steadily on the USA in Obesity.

Actually for reading books knowing where you are does help line up the story. (beginning middle or end)
However for story's that bounce back and forth with exposition that is less helpful sometimes.

Sweden? I the most powerful state on earth? Wow.
Sweden is part of the EU. It has to abide by EU rules. Extradition to the USA is rarely done from EU countries.
Except per Swedish and EU law tht would be illegal.
I dot know why you people keep bringing it up.
Why do you think 3D tv was a failure? most people don't have depth perception that is adequate enough to watch it without headaches.
That and you had to wear ugly glasses. So many people who can barely read won't wear glasses unless some one forces them too.

New eyes , new finger prints, and new DNA.
What happens if you get sick or injured? Can you imagine pink eye with retinal scanners? Finger print scanners are fooled by gummy bears.
The ping times though would ensure you never actually got First Post though.

Not as good as you might think.

Not only that but the response has to travel what .2mm? Of course they can do it fast.
Now engineer a fruit fly the size of a dog and run the test again. I bet response time goes way up.

to expensive. Homeless people need food and a place to sleep. Robots just need electricity at $.10 a KWH.
Why do you think business argue against paying people a livable wage?
