It would have to be scheduled in advance. Far enough that where your car will ultimately be, so too where the warehouse/depot will be be the closest. That mean you can't move your car once it's in route. Given the transportation industry as a whole is focused around the mantra of JIT delivery, I suspect this is going to be both a logistical nightmare in terms of both routing and storage. I mention storage too because I can envision a whole lot of packages being returned back to the depot whereas the onus now falls at the recipient to drive back and pick up his/her package. Again, a giant waste of everyone's time, energy, and money.
About the only time this would make sense is if you're traveling away from home and need a package delivered to you ASAP. But again, that's a lot of coordination with high risk of failure as mentioned before.
When I need a package delivered to an alternate location, I just have it delivered to my office where I can take it back home with me when I'm done with work.
Obviously you haven't been paying attention. The same ones that move our food to our local grocery stores. Diesel trucks already are pretty damn efficient for what they do. And being that fuel prices already cut into barely-living wage standards (and unsafe sleepless driving), it's to their advantage to increase MPG through market forces on their own. The main goal of Obama isn't to increase the MPG standards, but reduce greenhouse emissions from semi trucks. The goals may be one-in-the-same, but the premise of reducing CO2 has far more crippling ramifications.
Unless they plan on forcing truckers to retrofit existing trucks with modifications (through government subsidies [your tax dollars]), there's just no way they can increase MPG when hauling heavy cargo with existing trucks. To my knowledge, newer trucks are already on the bleeding edge of technology that isn't cost prohibitive. That last part is key.
And people, don't bring up trains using diesel-eletric engines. It's only diesel-eletric because there isn't a transmission that can be made small enough to support the gearing necessary to drive it.
You mean the same muslims in China (Uyghurs), Malaysia, and Philippines are all middle-eastern?
Race and culture are two entirely separate things. Do not conflate the two. Above all, do not insinuate racism by another person. You only espouse your own ignorance in doing so. No, the problem is Islam. It's an evil theocratic fascist movement!!! There is nothing racists in point out the level of violence from this twisted culture.
Insulting when it's on the cheap, at least. From a PR perspective, paying off the community in the form of gifts can actually work. Human nature and all that. The correct way of pulling this off is to not be so cheap as to backfire. Perhaps a new XBox or some such for each resident family that would be effected nearby. Take the total cost of the political fallout and divide by family count to get the value that the gift should be.
Now between you and me, we might feel that a bit condescending. But money talks and we are the minority voice here. It works for politics, no difference here.
Right, and so it's perfectly justifiable for these palestinian thugs to launch rockets (from welded scrap metal) into the homes of civilians killing babies and small children with shrapnel. Right? Right?!
And then there's Pallywood. I could give two shits about the Isreali movement, but those Palestinian fuckers can rot were they fester...on rationed water no less.
Yes, correct; no argument. But there is N. Korea, and everything else. You have to pick and choose your battles carefully. Given N. Korea is a pit of hell on Earth, we (humanity) should prioritize what is dealt with, how, and when. Wouldn't you agree?

The focus of your concern should be the delivery of UHDTV which has 4x the resolution of HDTV if I recall. As I know, there isn't even a physical media format for it. Yet, I'm hearing more and more buzz surrounding UHDTV. I guess that's because it's still consumer experimental razor edge technology. Effectively an expensive technology demo that makes for an interesting conversation piece for the wealthy class. Just as with HDTV before it.
HDTV 1080i (maybe 1080p too) is already broadcasted over cable and dish, and has been for over 7 years now. There are differences in compression techniques due to bandwidth constrains however. So different CODECs are used along with VBR to match whatever bandwidth is deemed applicable and available. Though I do agree wholeheartedly, nothing beats the raw bandwidth of a spinning BD. Though the differences between HD broadcast and physical media is subtle that your average consumer wouldn't notice the difference unless you provided pointers to tell the difference between the two formats.
I think the most interesting concept that I've read is that rather then raise the minimum wage, we cap the maximum combined income per individual. And while this still goes against the fundamental forces of supply and demand, at least capping income would reduce the disparity in wealth. That at least is a start. Most importantly, we've got to stop printing money. Inflation does two thing; it widens disparity in wealth, and it evaporates the value of savings which primarily hit the elderly and disabled on a fixed income. If we lose the middle class, trust and love of country (and thus fellow man) is over!!! That idea should frighten everyone reading this. I need not go into why it's a bad thing to evaporate a solid middle class.
Who knows. It could have been to address a class action lawsuit on a near EOLed product. Sour the milk and all that. The "solution" is to repla...er...upgrade the device.
That, or the original dev was forced to focus further development and support on newer products.
Even better. My wife 30 years of age, is the child of parents that grew up during the Cultural Revolution. Even she collects shit like plastic utensils from fast food joints and whatnot. Plastic bag, bottles, containers, etc. What I call "trash" she calls useful. While it is nice to save money and protect the environment, sometimes she goes too far. And no, it's not a hoarding disorder, but it's damn near close with a cause.
You should never hoard money during periods of inflation. In fact paradoxically, it's better to be in debt owning assets (car, house, etc) in inflationary times. OTOH, you don't want to be the lender as they lose their ass. Overall though everyone suffers in inflation in some form or fashion. None come out unscathed. Though I will say this: in times of inflation, this is the time where the disparity in wealth widens! The poor gets poorer, the wealthy more wealthy. Exactly how it's happening now where homes are being purchased and flipped into rental properties in all the major US cities now.
Naw. They will just develop lasers to pop people from space. No difference than you using a magnifying glass on ants; only much faster. It would be like a hit-man sniping from orbit. Tinfoil hats may be in order.
I think nuclear plant should produce hydrogen during low load period and that cars should run on hydrogen.
Hydrogen won't run in any IC engine due to a problem known as hydrogen embrittlement to metals exposed in the combustion chamber. Even if you were to use it for fuel cells, it still requires a considerable amount of energy to keep the tanks cryogenically cooled.
While I have yet to run the numbers on overall efficiency, it might actually be better to bond the hydrogen with carbon. Synthetic hydrocarbon fuels. This method would be both carbon neutral and easy to transport. In addition to that, it's the most versatile substance that can be resold to a wide market. Oil itself is fungible in fact.
Spelling aside, the AC makes an excellent point in observation not to be dismissed outright. Simply put, people vote for what benefits themselves, not what's best for the nation. Whether they admit to it or not, it's all subconscious anyways when you get down to the core motivating factor of a persons decision. And people wonder why this nation has become more selfish and narcissistic (selfies anyone?) than at any point I can remember. Worst of all, politicians are all too willing to play to their tune even if it bankrupts the country with government handouts. In fact, it has; into the double digit Trillions.
Like it not, we will have a coming-home-to-Jesus moment (AKA chickens coming home to roost). Get ready for it!
Obama is not conservative; not even in the slightest when compared to the likes of William F. Buckley, Barry Goldwater, and Ronald Reagan. Those last three defined American Conservatism to the likes of Rush Limbaugh picking up the baton and running with it every weekday on AM talk radio.
While Obama started out as liberal, I think he's far from it based on his own actions. If anything, he's an anti-liberty fascist! And the American voter has "sucker" written all over their foreheads.
Demons come from another plain of existence. A parallel dimension of destruction, evil, and despair. While they are 'alien' to humanity, not so much in the classical sense of other worldly creatures that originate in our universe.
I guess you could say, even aliens battle their own demons too. Where not alone. Misery loves company and all that.
That would be the 2nd phase of the cycle if further repurposed for recycling. Shredding is the 1st in which the pieces are sorted as ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Once the material has been sorted as best as possible, it then goes into a crucible to be melted down. As for the platters themselves; they are typically made out of aluminum, glass, or ceramic substrate. Even if you can't recycle ceramic efficiently (I don't know), the coating on them most certainly would have been vaporized from the material when exposed to such temperatures. Being that it's the coating that stores the data, it's a rather moot point to be worrying about data recovery.

Talk to YOUR government about that. I sure as shit didn't for the current POTUS.

That's the problem with parasites; eventually they kill themselves after they kill off their host.

Ohm's law will do that. Popular indeed.

Have no fear. Belkin is here! With this new firmware reboots are scheduled automatically! ***applause***
Now the entire family is happy again.
Netflix will be blocked. The N. Korean regime is hellbent on stopping the cultural invasion from all forms of media.
No. Expect N. Korea to take the connection and firewall it off with a *white list*
