For the middle class, The point of taking public transportation isn't so that you can save a couple $ on gas, it is so:
You don't have to drive in aweful traffic so you can actually relax and read a book or newspaper, and these days catch up on all the BS work email so I can actulally work when you get to work.
Your family can be ok with just 1 car and not 2. The cost of a car is large when you add it all up -- the initial cost of a car good enough it won't break down because I'm a young kid who knows how to configure a linux server, and not how to fix a car; the taxes; time spend at the DMV/MVA/whatever; insurance costs. This all adds up to more than about 2K per year.
You wouldn't enjoy the same activity with say a b-b-gun? or a bow and arrow? or an adle-adle? I get that target practice is fun, I'm just not sure I believe the pistol is the only way to enjoy that activity.
Conscientious objectors might not be forced to kill others, but they are forced to serve during draft times, and often to much lower pay. We should force religious parents to vaccinate children if they are sent to public school, it is a public health issue. I don't really know anything about Amish people other that they have "rumspringa" which sounds like a good idea.
(in addition to the identical twin comments), the change of collision drastically changes depending of the type of DNA comparison test being performed. Usually this is a function of how many allele's they are testing for.
depends how directional it is. You can narrow down the 90x180 deg been pattern by a lot and still hit more than one target. Also, connecting at all with a directional antenna is better than connecting to no-one with out one.
not everyone, just a vocal amount of old-timers on/. Most of my younger dev friend who just got into linux love it more than EVERY other DE they've used. (ages 23-28). I've learned to love it myself. I don't really understand how people say it 'gets in the way'. I hit the meta key, type in the program name I want, hit enter, it runs. done. I use the (now common in other DEs) feature where Upper left hand corner tiles windows quickly so I can pick one.
Admission might be free, but parking isn't. So unless you are getting dropped off, I'd still bring some form of monitary payment. Though, if you are a poor collage kid in the area, I believe there is a free shuttle from smithsonian in DC out there.
I have no idea what the mechanism might be. But all you need to do to observe the sun increasing the mass of the earth is to plant a seed in the dirt, it's not a weird concept.
With all the radiant energy coming off the sun, there's every reason to believe it's interacting with the planetary core in ways that we have no understanding of.
Great argument for provocing thought in middle schoolers.
The majority of the mass from that plant growth comes from the water and nitrogen in the air and ground below it. This is why man-made ferilizaer was such a massive step forward for society, and why wars were faught over bat shit. The sun provides basically 0 mass to this, simply provides the energy to let the plant do what it wants with the food already around it.
This sounds obsurd, but the guy needs to install video cameras pointed at all this computers.
If its truly educating his family that is his goal, the sheer obtrusiveness of this idea will prove a point and make family members careful. And if they truly are ignorant of possible threats and do something that compromises security, then they can go over the footage together.
Should be easy to install, fairly cheap and get the point across.
How did this make front page?
This won't help in the smart-phone/ipad age. Kids always things they are smarter than their parents. Lets pretend his kids are about to go off the deep end into organized terrorism, this would just force them deeped under ground, and not actually help/detect anything.
I've had netflix since it's inception. I've seen the beginning of it's online content and the expansion of it. A couple of years ago you were right, but clearly you don't currently use the service.
Not that AT&T is taking possession of the stolen property, but they are receiving service payments because of the stolen property.
So I pull into a gas station with my stolen car. Is the gas station aiding and abetting or receiving stolen property? Even if I tell them, hey, look at this cool car I just stole?
This is the key part. If you tell someone that you obtained something illegally, they are under obligation not to profit from that. The guilt isn't just by walking by. It is by the combination of profiting from illegaly activity, and KNOWINGLY doing so.
AT&T claim they didn't know is their defense. It is also bull shit. They have databases of all their phones, and customers. That is how they know the phone is authorized on their network, and that the user owes them money for the text messages, voice and 3/4g data that goes along their network. Each phone has an account status activated/deactivated etc. You are telling me that "stolen" couldn't be added to this list? JOKE
VirtualBox has a 'seemless mode' for gnome/kde integration. The only performance cost I've hit with VMs is if you don't have the ram, there is no real CPU performance hit. I love win when it works, but that usually requires you to run it against software made for win 2000/XP unless it is popular enough for people to get fixes submitted upsteam (WoW)

You questioning the actions of a God is like an Ant trying to get a CS degree. It is cute, but you simply aren't equipped to understand it.

Most insightful AC comment I've read here in about 2 months.
haha- You know, I really don't see that reverence much...in fact, EVER.
AC likes to make it rain and doesn't want to injure his loved ones.

Halo is now made by 343 studios
I used to believe this, until, in the US, Guantanamo bay was setup, and people were rounded up and jailed with out charges for years.

I think it is a "retro-encabulator", though I guess it would be ironic to correct someone on this snipe-hunt.
I'm not sure if this is a coding joke I'm missing, but this is definitly not right. This probably won't even run.

Deduced from this article, all dentists by the age of 50 should be similar to The Toxic Avenger.
Why? the patient is being subjected to radiaiton; my dentist leaves the room.
because not all hackers get caught, and a hacked network can cost your company much more money than the cost of paying someone to secure it.
