Ever see the movie Silent Running? Basically, it was about a mobile bubble platform in space. Inside...a forrest bursting with plant life.
Personally, I would rather breath air in the wide open. But there's nothing preventing human civilization from creating a bubble enviroment with its air being replenished with plant life.
According to the article "Their body armor was able to stop the.38 caliber and 9 mm projectiles fired by the officers' service handguns".
A.38 caliber round sits between 9 and 10mm when looking at a conversion table. A.45 caliber would be between 11 and 12 mm. Taking hits from a 9mm with body armor is no walk in the park, but it's a far cry from taking hits from a.45.
He said the software was written to falsify the vote count, not me! Either he's lying or not. If he is lying, he just conducted perjury!!! What part of perjury do you not fucking understand!!!!
Meh. I say we just use slot machines to vote. It's the perfect solution given that each administration is a gamble anyways.
*chug chug chug chug...chuck...clunk* WOOHOO! It said I voted for Party-X. That's right. Now that I think about it, I've ALWAYS wanted to vote for Party-X.
When your in school, you're already bound by what you can and can't say, write, hear and wear. That said, why not just serve only HEATHY food in the first place!!! Now that would be something worthy of enforcing.
The amount of porkers I see in the malls these days scare me! Their shit diet is going to cost society massive amounts in health care!
Would make sense to "timeshare" these weapons. You don't need mass quantities of these things; you just need to keep them on stand-by by allied forces. You know how many subs are in all the worlds' oceans right? Do you really want ALL of them armed with tactical nukes? If a few end up being needed, that's one thing. However, I want Earth to still remain hospitable to human life long after such confrontations...God forbid.
The files are stored and aren't messed with until the space is needed. So if you delete something and still have 500GB free, it'll keep the file since you can afford the space and it'll be marked as allocated and thus not overwritten.
So what happens when a user runs Defrag? Will the defrag utility also defragment these hidden files too? It would have to or this new file restore scheme will be useless.
I can only guess what you mean by "final solution", but the only solution to this problem is all out war. The solution should be obvious to you. You can never...ever...have peace without victory when nations/people are confronted with irreconcilable differences.
Why people totally ignore human nature baffles me! You can take humans out of nature, but you can't take nature out of humans. It's best we all remember and RESPECT this fact!
I'm just waiting for Iran to provide Hezbollah a nuclear bomb (unless Iran launches it themselves) to be smuggled into Israel. It's not a matter of IF, but WHEN!
Face it, it's going to happen. And when it does, Israel better vaporize all who is responsible. The western world needs to be victorious against Islamic fascism. And no, I no longer pity the "innocent". They know shit hit the fan long ago, and they should have left their city in order to disassociate themselves from the enemy.
There's a saying I go by. Dance with the devil, be prepared to get burned. Fuck em!
Sounds like megnet therapy would cause more harm than good. If red blood cells have iron in them, I can imagine megnets causing them to clot. Sounds bad...
Over the past few years, I've traveled to China (Shanghai) twice now. I wonder if by "default" I'm on this list. If so, how do I know it?
Can I check my civilian status or shadow profile online (did I just say "status" as though I'm legally less of an American)?
How else does this bad mark effect me legally? Does it hurt my credit rating or prevent me from getting a loan? Just how deep does this hell hole go? Will I meet Satan if I deep enough...
This is seriously fucked up and for the first time in my life, I'm nervious about my citizenship status EVEN THOUGH I WAS BORN HERE. And no, my parents arn't immigrants.
That's Slashdot for you in that some people here think they know of a "better" solution against something that's worked for billions of years. It's called hubris. It runs rampant on this forum.
Has anyone picked up on the idea of how Fry's does checking out? Seriously, it's the best damn system!!! With your standard checkout lines, it runs in parallel. That is to say, each register has its own line. At Fry's Electronics however, it's done in serial. With this method, you have X number of registers in a row. Behind them you one giant line of people. This way goes much much faster because you don't have to worry about individual mini-line backing up at each register. Computer crash, failed credit card, stupid customer...it doesn't matter. You just pick the next available register when it's your turn at the front.
Oh and there are plenty of impulse buying shelves you walk by as you go through the single waiting line. Pure genius! It's win/win for everyone!
From what I've read, China is seriously looking into ethanol production after these past few years of Middle Eastern conflict. They know the handwriting is on the wall with Iran. The recent events with Israel further solidified shit hitting the fan. Despite their budding up with Russia, they still don't quite trust them. In fact, China trusts the US far more than Russia from an economic standpoint. Yes, I know they conduct military training with Russia but that's because they have a policy of "keep your friends close, keep your enemies closer".
While Chinese national security is part of the issue as stated, another reason is to bring their poor class of farmers to a better standard of living. Currently, food is dirt cheap in that country at the local level. While the availability of the food varies and thus it's price, it's only because China doesn't have the advanced transportation infrastructure that we have in the USA. So what does China do with these farmers that can't make a profit because the local market is flooded? Why, turn it into Ethanol! Not only will the farmers become richer tapping into this industry, but they will be educated in advanced science and agriculture too. Also, what ever surplus of Ethanol is left over in China will no doubt be sold on the global market.
Being that American labor is very expensive (as are other 1st world nations); I would expect the US to be importing vast amounts of ethanol form China and perhaps India in the future. No doubt will China find security in keeping America dependant on its goods and services. So far it's working as we don't give them any political BS.
Human action defines what being productive is and means. So in this context, gambling and sailing yachts is productive as seen fit by our human endeavors.
As a side note, you cannot force people to an application unless they desire the need for it. Because energy is still rather cheap, why in the hell should I invest in solar cell technology? I'm sorry, but I won't accept this application unless I'm personally affected. Selfish, I know. But that's how the real world works for everyone.
According to this article, Samsung has already developed a flexible LCD screen.
"Conventional LCD displays are made from glass panels. The flexible prototype is made from a plastic backing that is thin enough so it can be bent."
"The first products using the screens will be notebook PCs and other portable consumer electronics product, Lee says. The sizes of the panels have yet to be decided, but they could be bigger or smaller than 5 inches, she says. More exotic wearable display products such as helmets, glasses,and fashion accessories could come later."
So by "seeding AI", we are letting nature take over its own evolution past the point of human comprehension. Sounds reasonable. That said however, I wonder if the inverse is possible. I wonder if such advanced AI would have the ability to reverse engineer life all the way back to its origin. Maybe even further past the point of the "big bang".

I smell perjury. Given that he offers no proof and is the only one making such statements, I call BS.
Most likely he's some activist out to get attention.
That said however, it behooves us as a nation to run a full investigation into this matter regardless of the validity of the statements brought forth.

Speaking of Crabs, I'm reminded of this video.
May I suggest the final solution?

Now only if they can do this in 3D like in the movie Abyss. (Yes I know, it was CG animated)
Sounds like megnet therapy would cause more harm than good. If red blood cells have iron in them, I can imagine megnets causing them to clot. Sounds bad...
You just bitch-slapped this article. Case closed. It's done, put a fork in it.
Well done! Good job!

peon states should've just been conquered and swallowed up by New York anyway.
Chinese provinces should've just been conquered and swallowed by Beijing anyway. Oops, wait....

I'm too afraid to click.
You know something, your absolutely correct. Major growth spurts in science and technology happen in times of war.
I'm laughing at the irony, but I'm crying in face of the truth.
