China doesn't care about its people because it has too many of them. Life is cheap, much like India. It has nothing to do with race and everything to do with culture.
They have way too many living beings so no one cares what happens to a few.
Then you really don't know anything about how automated finding someone based on an online profile is. The software has been written, the automation done. It takes VERY LITTLE resources for the system to put it all together. All but the most dedicated and vigilant people will leave enough of a trace that they can be easily tracked down.
That depends on the information you give away.
In order to actually talk to a website, you leave enough information behind to be found, especially with Tor infiltration.
You simply aren't as clever as you think you are, even if you don't realize how easy it is to figure out who you are.
Seriously? You're bitching about 10% humidity? 95 isn't the most pleasant, but 10% humidity is pretty fucking low.

Time of year is pretty irrelevant when it comes to how you perceive it.
But sorry D/M/V cab industry, maybe you should have upped your game a long time ago
They did, thats what the laws are there for. Perhaps you should do a little research into the history of cabs in general to find out when and why the existing regulations exist.
LONG mode x86-64 works out most of the major 'problems' with x86 from a programmers perspective. Thanks AMD! ARM has its own set of silliness that devs at the assembly level have to deal with (For reference, I fluently speak x86, ARM, and ATmega ASM).
Furthermore, x86-64 is a language the rides on top of the core, the core doesn't actually speak x86 in pretty much any x86 processor, it has a translation unit in front of it that breaks the CISC instructions up into more RISC like ones for the core.
I wouldn't put it past Intel to put an ARM translation unit in front of their cores with little effort, performance wouldn't be 100% identical but it already isn't across different ARM cores so thats probably not really that large of an issue.
Other than 'its old', do you have an actual insightful reason that x86 needs to die or are you just spouting something you heard some one else say a long time ago without understanding at all why they said it?
Yours may not, or you talked to the wrong person, but its fairly common. Bank of America certainly does, as does Capital One. BoA emailed informing me I would be cut off within 24 hours if I didn't respond or answer when called, then called me once while in Vegas blowing money, after confirming with them that I was legitimately spending my money, I asked if I could avoid the problem in the future, so they don't cut me off if I DON'T get the call/email in time. The answer was simple, call us before going out of town at the number on the card, inform them of the trip and time period and they'll change their processing (but not stop it) so you won't be left stranded.
AT&T does the same thing for phone calls, tell them you're leaving the country and don't want to be considered suspicious they'll note the time of the trip and give you a pass for that time, they also suggested I sign up for the 'world' plan for roaming for that month as it was something like $5, which was basically the cost of the per minute rate in that country for AT&T roaming if I wasn't on the plan but $1 or so on the plan. Just remember to cancel at the end of the trip.
If your car battery is venting hydrogen, you're already fucked on a different scale. The vent is to prevent violent explosions in one form (over-pressure) but raises the risk of a hydrogen fire. The trade off is worth it, but the solution is to prevent the battery from going to the point of venting.
Once you've caused hydrogen generation you're well on your way to destroying the battery anyway.
The 'Occupy' movement was a bunch of self entitled spoiled brats in North Face tents and backpacks being obnoxious jerks and breaking shit in some cases. They had no actual goals they could agree on. They had no actual organization. Just a bunch of young adults who 'hate the man' and they don't even know why considering most of them were part of the fucking 1% they were up in arms about. Most of them didn't even actually know why they were there.
If you think that was a 'protest' you have no idea what an actual protest is. Everyone who wasn't too lazy to get off their ass and work just found the whole thing an obnoxious annoyance that got in their way.
There is conflicting data and theories on this matter. Some great minds think that galaxies are bound well enough to continually overcome the expansion, most in the field think solar systems will survive and are fairly certain matter itself will as well.
Remember expansion speed is also a function of scale. If an atom doesn't get significantly larger (think of it staying the same size that it is now while the universe gets larger) then it won't be affected by the high speed expansion that happens at VASTLY larger scales than the space between galaxies.
Nope, there are already physics that allow for FTL travel in the same way that the universe is expanding (at a large distance from us) faster than the speed of light.
You can't travel FTL in a local frame of reference, but theres nothing that says space can't be manipulated FTL and there are plenty of theories that it in fact does expand FTL. The big bang being a shining example of space expanding far FTL... or its wrong, the big bang theory that is.
As you approach the speed of light relativistic effects slow the passage of time.
At the speed of light, time cease to pass. Light in effect travels instantly from its perspective (in a vacuum, not sure what happens when its in a medium and slows down). We see the light move, but if you were a photon, your entire existence would be instantaneous from start to finish. Only an outside observer not moving at the speed of light would see light 'travel'.
Unless its doing something as listed on the link the the post you're replying to, then its just that the author didn't bother to enable it for your country.

This is simply roblimo posting a story for timothy. When timothy is involved you can rest assured there will be much ignorance and stupidity involved as well, hence why it comes up now rather than then.
The upside to it is also that given history, you don't want to be involved with anything timothy posts about. He's about the biggest idiot I've ever seen and thats impressive considering the Internet's sheer size.
This story is just another excuse to make it appear that timothy isn't worthless, and whats more slashdot hides one editors posting behind another editor doing the writing and trying not to use the name everyone will recognize right off the start. This is just an excuse to post more bullshit that timothy spews.
You do realize that while you're rates may not go up after one accident, if you have more than one, regardless of fault, your rates are going up, right? First one is an accident, second one is a pattern, third one that you aren't 'at fault' for... is your fault. You're doing something at that stage to put yourself in the wrong situation.
Second, you're willing to spend 80% of the cost, to get you out of the rare circumstance where the only evidence is your word against his word... and ignoring the fact that 99 times out of a 100 the cops can tell who's lying based on physical evidence at the scene even with no witnesses... and you're assuming that its GOING to happen, you're GOING to get in to an accident... with the dash cam that doesn't have an obstruction preventing it from seeing the cause... rather than wait and see if you need to spend any money at all... just so you can save at best... $100? How useful do you think this thing is going to be on your roof (for unobstructed view) after someone steals it?
While you may have convinced yourself of this logic, your argument is really pretty silly.
Lets think this through, shall we? What this actually translates to is a pay cut for everyone else, who isn't suddenly going to have their salary adjusted to match the increase to minimum wage workers.
To top it off, ALL the prices in the area will go up so that the businesses don't lose any money while consuming the increase given to minimum wage workers.
This is pretty stupid in ever aspect other than getting the bottom of the barrel voters and ultra-liberal idiots that care more about looking like they are doing something useful than actually understanding and doing something useful.
Reality check: TrueCrypt for Windows could never be trusted, even if you aren't knowledgeable enough to understand that.
TrueCrypt was a nothing more than a block device driver for Windows, it was a kernel module. Any other kernel module or the kernel itself could hook into the chain between TrueCrypt and the rest of the system and read the clear text data.
Because of the reality of working with Windows, TrueCrypt is no more trustworthy than BitLocker on Windows. They don't need to back door the BitLocker system itself, they can just bypass it OR TrueCrypt.

Perhaps only if you don't reach critical mass. Shoot more of them until the point is well understood.
They all have bought into dark energy as if it were as secure as our understanding of gravity.
I realize you don't mean it this way, but consider how little we actually know about gravity other than it exists.
All we 'know' is that are measurements don't add up.
The rest is speculation and conjecture.
There is conflicting data and theories on this matter. Some great minds think that galaxies are bound well enough to continually overcome the expansion, most in the field think solar systems will survive and are fairly certain matter itself will as well.

If an atom doesn't get significantly larger (think of it staying the same size that it is now while the universe gets larger) then it won't be affected by the high speed expansion that happens at VASTLY larger scales than the space between galaxies.
Some galaxies have been measured to have red-shifts past 2c
Now apply some logic and then start asking yourself if perhaps that particular set of measurements are incorrect.
