Your foil hat will only work if you properly ground it.
So, you need to run a wire from your hat down to your shoes and use antistatic shoe straps to ground yourself. It will also work better when the ground is wet.
I guess foil hat wearers will have no problem wetting themselves, they just need to funnel it down, since having wet pants won't help, they need wet shoes...
Never mind moving the objects, just move the earth out of the way. Just mount an engine on the north and south poles. No need for any space travel. This can be done at ground level. A pair of coal fired steam jets should do it.
Well, we are only interested in an object that is on a collision course. Therefore, we only need to deflect it a tiny little bit (10,000km), so that it barely miss the earth. The resulting hyperbole will cause the earth to sling the object away at a much increased velocity and we will then likely never see it again.
Hmm, it is no small co-incidence that 'Slum' is a homophone for 'Islam'. We are now seeing the slummification of Europe. Cato would be spinning in his grave.
The reason detre of faith/religion is fear of the unknown. A scientist is not affraid to say: "I don't know". A religious nut in the same circumstance, would say: "Praise Allah, it was a miracle".
The dangerous thing about religion however, is that religious nuts refuse to take responsibility for their own actions, always hiding behind the wispy veils of a mythical super being. A scientist will say: "I am sorry, it was my fault". While a religious nut will say: "It was gods will".
The main cause is the C string operators, which traditionally use Null terminated strings. So the potential length of a string is unlimited. In Linux, functions like gets() are (have been) phased out in favour of getsn(), which has an explicit length: int getsn(char *cp, int size);
This has been a huge effort executed using automated search methods and hand coding, to vet enormous amounts of Free code. Consequently the quality of GNU systems have improved dramatically, while the same cannot be said for MS code.
The problem is that if you overflow a buffer defined on the processor stack, then you can force a new return address into the Program Counter when a routine exits, thus giving the attacker control over the next piece of code to execute. This pice of code is typically part of the string that was used to overflow the buffer.
It is actually quite sophisticated. It emits a high frequency (ultra sonic) sound which creates a beam in the air. Any sound can then be modulated on that beam - voice warnings, screaches, country music, anything really. On the ship, they modulated gun fire sound onto the beam, making the pirates think that the ship is returning fire.
My guess is that it is a tax scam. CA can now claim it as a charitable donation and probably won't have to pay any corporate tax for the next ten years.
Maybe, but only oil will do it.
If there was a ring of gold, a foot thick, circling the earth, at a height that the space shuttle can go and get it, it won't be worth it.
I don't get it. Since PostgreSQl is the successor to Ingres and is properly funded by DARPA - why would anyone bother with the older version?
It feels like Linus making a big whoopdedoo about a release of kernel version 1.0 under a BSD license...
First, someone has to find oil on the moon. Until that happens, the moon is safe against US agression. However, since the moon is rotating very, very, slowly on its axis, its bearings are clearly in bad shape, so there is probably little, if any oil...
Long ago, South Africa was heavily criticized by the USA for building a fence along the border with Mozambique, to keep illegal immigrants from walking through the Kruger Park and getting eaten by lions.
I never figured out why the Americans were up in arms about it: Because it looked like a Berlin Wall, or whether the lions have a natural right to eat people, or what the hell...
The Mexican fence looks very similar, except that there are no lions on the US side, to protect the Mexicans from.

Oh, great - so my space ship will need anti-fouling to keep space barnacles from growing on it...
Will space barnacles and space weed slow a space ship down? Maybe if it gets stuck in the subspace propeller, or fouls the plasma intake manifold...

Wow, *you* have a PCMCIA slot? Hot damn. That must have hurt. I hope it doesn't interfere with the nose and lip rings...

1. Launch empty satellite.
2. Fill with 20t of crap from space station.
3. Find enemy asteroid to tow away.
4. ???
5. Profit.

Why, they could simply have called it Paris...

A total absense of evidence and circular reasoning is a hallmark of religion.

No, no, playing Country music beamed at pirates, is torture. That is not allowed under the Geneva convention.
BTW, the Nairobi hospital in Kenia reported a large increase in Somalis with banana leaves stuck in their ears...
it has more security holes than a Swiss cheese.
So, it is not the lack of openness that bugs me with MS software, quite the contrary...
Well damn, they should have the SQL standard in common, right?

That happens when the author is paid per letter; 'has digged' is three hundred percent better for the bottom line, than 'dug'...

Yes, they have the Stasi^WFBI. The next step is to build a wall:r epublicans-propose-mexican-border.php
