That event was a more notable for historical and cultural reasons to European history. However, most of the deaths were caused by diseases and civil war.
While numbers are unavailable, Spanish records indicate that the population was so devastated by disease that their forces could hardly be resisted. However, whether the illness of the 1520s was actually smallpox has been contested; a minority of scholars claim that the epidemic was actually due to an indigenous illness called Carrion's disease. In any case, a study by N. D. Cook, the results of which were published in 1981, show that the Andes suffered from three separate population declines during colonization. The first was of 30–50 percent during the first outbreak of smallpox. Then, when smallpox was followed with the measles, another decline of 25–30 percent occurred. Finally, when smallpox and measles appeared together, which occurred from 1585 to 1591, a decline of 30–60 percent occurred. Collectively these declines amounted to a decline of 93 percent from the population pre-contact in the Andes region.[15]
When Pizarro arrived in Peru in 1532, he found it vastly different from when he had been there just five years before. Amid the ruins of the city of Tumbes, he tried to piece together the situation before him. From two young local boys who he had taught how to speak Spanish in order to translate for him, Pizarro learned of the civil war and of the disease that was destroying the Inca Empire.[3]
Right, sure, uhuh. I don't give a damn about what the law says. Amending an existing law is far easier than passing the first. You have far more faith in man than I do in that this won't be abused.
Politicians will be among the first to leverage this law. How convenient that selected statements were to just...disappear....from the Internet. More so prior to an election season.
If you want it to be a "REGULATED UTILITY", the trade off will be that it becomes PRISM compliant. You only have two choices. Getting fucked by the corporations, or getting fucked by the government. Most likely we'll get fucked by both however.
The housing bubble had nothing to do with this? Last I checked, Clinton had a hand in this mandating loans to poor people whom then the banks were all too willing to engage in predatory lending.
There's nothing hypothetical about it. CF does dissipate energy away from the driver of an F1 race car upon impact.
"At the heart of the modern Formula One car is the 'monocoque' (French for ‘single shell’), or 'tub'. It incorporates the driver's survival cell and cockpit, and also forms the principal component of the car's chassis, with engine and front suspension mounted directly to it. Its roles as structural component and safety device both require it to be as strong as possible. Like the rest of the car, most of the monocoque is constructed from carbon fibre - up to 60 layers of it in places - with high-density woven laminate panels covering a strong, light honeycomb structure inside.
Did you know that during his high-speed crash at the Canadian Grand Prix in 2007, Robert Kubica was subjected to more than 28 times the acceleration of gravity? This meant that his body effectively weighed two tons instead of 73 kilograms. Millions of spectators expected the worst, but thanks to the strict safety precautions in Formula One racing Kubica suffered only minor bruises." -Formula1.com
That, and CF shatters upon impact (dispersing the KE with it). If the unibody was made of the stuff, kiss the car goodbye; it's totaled!. OTOH if it's just the body panels, you replace them.
So I had a massive bee swarm in my backyard show up one day. I called a few places to get a quote on the removal. Between $400 to $500! One bee keeper gave me quote for $100. I asked if bees were in demand and asked them how much they wanted for them instead. Obviously I didn't get a response. A few days later, the swarm moved on.
Until someone makes me an offer for the bees, I'm not worried about a colony collapse.
It's bigger then that. This is about the narcissistic sycophants that think they can buy their way into power, and a president whom is all too willing to go along with it.
I've done IT work for many clinics here in Houston, and I've never ran into that mentality before. I suppose it depends on the circles you do work with. In my case, it was next to impossible to get anything approved when they're too busy to handle anything business related. Again, these were small clinics.
What they should be using is Bitlocker. It can be overly sensitive in that any major Windows Update, driver, and BIOS will flag for the recovery key at boot. You can back the key up to AD or have it stored elsewhere however. But when using Bitlocker for an organization, you really want a competent IT admin around to deal with this solution.
BTW, you could use Linux or Mac. For the sake practicality of the discussion, I'm assuming most clinics use Windows already with an AD forest.
For the most part, the components were strapped around O’Driscoll’s chest with duct tape and hidden under a sweatshirt. The laptop would have been plenty to manage, but they needed a power supply for the Oculus Rift. That came in the form of an old surge protector that had a backup power supply. A mouse ran from the computer down O’Driscoll’s arm where it was taped so he could easily click the left mouse button to start the virtual ride without having to look at the laptop’s screen. The bottom of the mouse was taped over so that the mouse cursor, pre-positioned over the simulation’s start button, couldn’t move. The Oculus Rift was hidden inside of the hood of O’Driscoll’s sweatshirt for easy access once they got onto the coaster. -TFA
Wouldn't a Samsung Galaxy S5 (with HDMI adapter) have sufficed instead of the laptop? Well, aside from the extra development time, the hardware should be good enough I would think.
If the IT Infrastructure is working, then why are you needed? If the IT Infrastructure has problems, why are you not fixing them for what we are paying you?
Many companies despise the IT dept because it doesn't generate revenue. It's a parasitic requirement knowing they must sink money to maintain and keep up with the rest of the business world. Queue the worlds tiniest violins.
The industrial world is geopolitically hanging on by a thread!!! Wars have historically been fought over resources. Cheap energy and a functional representative government is the base economic factor for all of society. In fact, wealth can be attributed to the BTU. The more BTUs at disposal, the cheaper it is to grow food and make stuff without relying too much on human and animal labor. Shock the word with expensive energy and watch civil and global conflict rise. Getting rid of coal so quickly without a functional replacement could cause WWIII!
If the ice caps were nuked, wouldn't that throw up enough CO2 and water vapor? Would a greenhouse effect be sustainable for several generations (aside from having an ineffective magnetosphere)?

When it's supported in Star Citizen, then I'll take it seriously (if not outright purchase one).
Wild wild East! Enjoy your stay.

History?? Fuck that. Revisionism is in vogue now.

He already made his billion, what does he care other then having other people pay for his atonement. This tax will just roll off onto the customer.

It's called phytomining. Primary used in the extraction of gold when available.
but to raise taxes on the masters of the universe who caused the damn thing.
And that will never happen.

Most like suspended or deactivated Bitlocker. That, and perhaps removed it from the domain and back into workgroup mode.

Or just as IBM Watson.
Not dead insomuch as replaced by Android and iPhone.
Because we're not supposed to mention the 'N' word. But since you asked; it's NUCLEAR fission!
Or, you know, could just blame the environmentalists for trying to save the Delta Smelt. Land of the fruits and nuts, indeed.
