I mean, there is torsional resistance from the generator. It requires input power to maintain a constant velocity. I have a feeling the "perpetual motion machine" will return less output with a higher and higher power input due to increasing resistance of the generator.
If Eagleworks has conclusive data that the EmDrive does indeed work, then there should be a Manhattan Project level of funding pushed towards it. It would change everything.
I think the main point of the GP is that the end consumer has no means to test exactly what they are buying. Whether or not the real ingredients do anything, is at best, subject. Whether or not the product contains what the label says, is not subjective.
Think of the scene in the matrix where operators are guiding ships in and out of Zion. There is a huge 3D interface for them to interact with.
You could eventually get right of ALL external displays. All of them. No longer would you need a tv in every room, or at all. The TV could be as big or as small as you want, any where you want.
You would no longer have to produce any external interfaces at all. Everything would be virtual, seamlessly integrated into your current environment, anywhere you are.
Imagine playing a shooting game where the enemy is seamlessly integrated into your house.
The possible applications for AR are truly astounding.
I don't really think you can beat C#. There is a freely available IDE. It creates applications for Windows (large install base). It is an object oriented language. The syntax is straightforward (you don't have to deal with complex point nomenclature, unless you want to for speed). Its a modern language that is as simple or complex as you want.
So according to this website, the device tax will bring in $29 Billion over the next 10 years.
So are they going to pass another tax to offset that missing revenue? Probably not. Any calls for repealing any revenue generating aspect of the ACA must be offset with revenue from somewhere else. As crappy as the ACA may or may not be, it is one of the few programs passed by Congress that have built in funding mechanisms.
That is why the ACA will work to some degree. But its still benefiting a particular industry (insurance) by allowing them to take 10% off the top of all healthcare spending. They have to be eliminated at some point.
While I watch plenty of content from Amazon Prime, Netflix and HBOgo, the lack of an officially supported USB port to play media single handedly caused me to buy a Roku 3, instead of a Fire TV.
Orbital is using the Russian engines for one reason and one reason only, they are procuring them at dirt cheap prices from some oligarch in Russia. That's it.
They can say how innovative they are, and how superior their design is, etc. But its all window dressing.
They build a business model based on procuring unknown hardware off the back of a shady box truck.
Scientists aren't picking sides. That is the whole point. You develop a theory for how things happen based on collected evidence and derivations. If your hypothesis doesn't fit the data, it isn't valid.
It doesn't matter how much contrary evidence you provide against creationists. By their own definitions, they can never be falsified. How do you debate that?
Your post.... is nothing but unsubstantiated, self deluded non sense.
Where are the studies to validate you expansive insight into the behavior of motorists?
Keep looking, the only thing you are going to find is if you want to make intersections safer, you expand those timings. You do it, even if people run the yellows and reds. The only thing that matters is a statistical tracking of accident rates at each individual intersection. Not how much people violate yellow lights.
Its called the "Fuck You, I've Got Mine" management philosophy. Obviously boristdog has gotten his (he is going to be retired soon), so fuck all those lower level programmers. They deserve to eat from the dumpster.
This article is terribly written. Some scientists wanted to see how far down ocean heating goes. As it turns out, not much.
That means some of the sequestered methane hydrates on the ocean floor may not pop as fast, since the temperatures at those depths are not rising as fast as they could be.
This does not mean the first 2000m of ocean is not heating. Quite to the contrary, it's heating plenty fast.
The net result is these two disjointed articles combined into a cluster of easily mis-interpreted sound bites.
The ocean is heating. It's also heating in a very stratified way. Most of the heat is concentrated in the top 2000m.
They are brighter than the CFL bulbs they replaced. They have lasted 1 month so far of continuous nighttime usage. They stay on all night long and are turned off in the morning.
She isn't assuming that stars are uniform, perfect density, simplistic objects. Its more of a simple design reference condition to put in a model, to verify the model output realistic results.
If the model doesn't work for a simplified, idealistic object (that is straightforward to calculate), then its not going to work on complicated, real universe objects.
But I believe this paper isn't disproving that. I think its saying all of that mass doesn't go to a point of infinite density, due to other known phenomena that keep it from happening.
I have a Lumia 1520, with a 6" screen. It fits in my pocket. I can walk around, sit in my car, sit at my desk, you name it. The phone doesn't break or warp.
Did those twin studies include twins that were separated into different socioeconomic groups? Or just different families, but similar socioeconomic status?
I have a feeling it all comes down to socioeconomic status. You end up with a better diet, better learning environment, etc. Its not necessarily the status itself that gives the better outcomes, its all the extra benefits that status provides.
Me drinking on Sundays doesn't affect you.
Me getting married doesn't affect you.
Me getting an abortion doesn't affect you.
Me murdering you affects you.
One of those things is not the other, one of those things is not the same.
The only religious people I know of that have their beliefs disparaged are those who wish to impose those beliefs on others through the force of law.
You don't like gay marriage? Don't get gay married. Don't like abortions? Don't get one. Fully fund pre AND post natal care. Provide free contraception. Stop trying to force a reading from certain religious to start every government open meeting. Stop trying to keep people from buying alcohol on Sundays. The list goes on and on.
Its ok to hold beliefs those things above are bad or immoral. Don't get the government to enforce your morals on others.
The Supreme Court has already ok'd anonymous tips to police as grounds for stopping a searching without a warrant. So what happens is that they track you illegally, someone calls in an anonymous tip and you are arrested with the contraband they already know you have.
So while the constant tracking is illegal and can't be entered into court records, they will still do it. If you haven't noticed, police departments across the country are acting more like the DOD everyday. They classify things as secret and inaccessible to FOIA requests. When parts of the machinery get close to disclosure, the Feds come in and swoop it away, like what happened recently with the cell tracking device usage records.

Teach the controversy! Right?
At some point, certain ideas simply need to be put to rest. Flat earthers, people who think storks deliver babies, you name it.
Creationists, by their own admission, will never change their hypothesis due to contradictory evidence. How can you have a debate?

I mean this is basically Fascism, right? Corporations acting as though they are a state agency, with all the powers of investigation, arrest, etc?
I currently have these installed in my exterior can lights that shine down from the soffits.

They are brighter than the CFL bulbs they replaced. They have lasted 1 month so far of continuous nighttime usage. They stay on all night long and are turned off in the morning.
I have bought 8 of the 65W equivalent LED bulbs that go into can lighting, from COSTCO.
I have can lights around the outside of my house and turn them on and leave them on overnight. I then turn them off come morning.
The CFLs I had in there previously would burn out. Ever other month, I was replacing a CFL.
The LEDs I replaced them with seem brighter, use half the wattage and could be dimmable if I add a dimmer switch.
So far I am happy. If i can make it 6 months without replacing one, I will be ecstatic.

Locations based on the cell towers by definition cannot be turned off. That is recorded. You are fooling yourself if you think otherwise.
