I suggest you take a look at the other portions and then tell me why they are being pushed *by* women. It's just run of the mill fake conservative bigotry where they scream "freedom" for everything other than the bedroom where they call for obsessively tight regulation.
This is sort of equivalent to corporate interests from the west operating in the middle east asking for a bit of leeway on alcohol rules. The strict culture based rules suck for outsiders coming in so it has an effect on the corporate interests.
When asked to leave he simply stated the law says he could choose to use the women's room and the staff at the pool were unable to prove otherwise so he was allowed to remain and even return for a later swim.
That reeks incredibly strongly of bullshit. You can be ejected from commercial premises if the staff do not want you there, they do not have to justify it by citing a law. No shoes no service. Nobody has a "right" to walk into any shop and not be asked to leave if they annoy the people responsible for running the place.
Other laws are still on the books so if intent can be shown they can still be charged with those other laws. Not cracking down on those who are not perverts doesn't mean giving up on the perverts.
Genital inspection prior and or after use of the listed facilities per chance?
That didn't work with the Olympics. One athlete who failed a female sex test in the 1970s later went on to give birth to three children.
This is a weird dog whistle bigot law anyway so there is no point overthinking it. They just want the men in dresses they don't like to get beaten up when they go out in public.
To state what should be obvious - if a guy wearing a dress goes into the wrong mens room at the wrong time they will get the utter shit beaten out of them. That's the sad situation that seems to be deliberately ignored in this thread and others.
It's not really about gender here but whether people should be forced to take that sort of risk or not.
I'd lay a wager that if the police were called things would have ended up very differently and you would not have this example to push an agenda. So why was nobody upset enough to call the police? Maybe you should look into that. Perhaps the incident has some more details you did not describe.
It's not going to happen everywhere but with 'feelings' based laws
Police and Judges are very much focussed on fact. They would tend to have 'feelings' that they should apply indecency laws that are on the books if the fact is relayed to them that a man undressed in front of young girls.
So you're going to find that most corporations will just move from one state to another.
Or even between local government regions to take advantage of lower taxes - that's what gave us the Detroit we have today instead of the boomtown of the 1950s.
China does a lot of things wrong but their manufacturing sector is not temped towards pointless venue shopping that fucks up a lot of lives and creates city death spirals (increased taxes on what is left in the city to make up for the losses drives them out). Infighting and ego boosting political games between local governments and between states has a real cost.
No one cares if storage is 50% efficient if the energy was free in the first place.
If the energy was free there would be no point in having this discussion at all, but since the energy is a very long way away from being free we are discussing it.
I wonder if the mp3 standard being developed with "Tom's Diner" as the example track had something to do with that. The work wasn't done until Suzanne Vega sounded as good compressed as uncompressed.
It's not Friday so it's a different time to the usual bullshit article:)
The gender fight stories must be drawing a lot of people in to pump up the ad revenue.
and the company men/women ratios seem pretty healthy considering that the tech university I went to had like 10 women per 100 men in the relevant to google/apple/ms fields.
Probably because some have been there for a while before enrolements declined to the current level. In my day it was 51% women 49% men in the introductory CS subject despite the number of engineering students (around 90% male at the point) who were in the class as a soft option for easy credit.
Natural gas has properties that makes it nearly ideal for generating electricity and poor for most anything else
Heating, fertilizer and a very handy precursor for a lot of petrochemical products. If you want hydrogen (or ammonia afterwards) it's still the easiest way to get it.
We can have equipment to compensate for the reactive power factor too.
Please read what I wrote above and try again. The clue is the question "What do you do to follow demand" - nothing to do with the solved problem of power factor.
Nothing prevents a nuclear power plant from load following except the current use of steam turbines
If you can teleport the steam directly from the reactor core to the turbines, indeed, but instead of going into the realms of SF I suggest you look up "thermal fatigue" to find out THE REASON WHY load following is rarely done with thermal power stations. It's often desirable to be able to use the generating unit next week after all.
Yes. I'm in the resource exploration industry. Over the last few years we've been reprocessing a lot of seismic data from as far back as the 1970s to apply a bit more computer power than was worth it at the time to see what was missed. Some stuff was never format shifted so there's hundreds of boxes of tape on reels around the place.
but just didn't have the technology to access before
Normally because the technology was expensive to develop, hence "harder" above.
Other than getting ISPs to block users (where the ISP now has to deal with a potential subscriber lawsuit because of the word of a third party), I just don't see how this is going to work:
That is their plan. Which means VPNs are not going to be a simple workaround either unless they are going to be hiding on an allowed port that isn't being redirected to Rightcorp. Good luck tunnelling via email. I'd give it about a day before that extra email traffic annoys someone at the ISP enough to block it.
They are not installing malware into a browser or system. They are redirecting traffic so that when you request web pages you can only get to their server.
For it to work they need your ISP to assist, which sucks in every way since they could block your email, VPNs, or anything else if they wanted as well. Tunnelling through allowed ports (eg. back in the day I used get ftp access via email) is hard when they own the only endpoints you can get to and everything else is blocked.
It is feasible but only if they can force or convince the ISP to do it.

If it's form is designed by Masamune Shirow then I would be happy to feel weird. He's drawn some interesting robots.

There was another post about the people pushing for this law and how they are not women.

Logic doesn't apply here. It's about exploiting fear.

So no heat then? Ah, so you totally misunderstood the topic yet again.
Why reinforce complete and utter failure?
Look up radioactive decay or find a TED talk on it. You'll see then how astonishingly ill-informed your comment on waste was.
If the energy was free there would be no point in having this discussion at all, but since the energy is a very long way away from being free we are discussing it.
It's best to at least complete the first semester of an actual engineering degree before attempting to do so :(
BRIAN BLESSED
The font is about fifty points too small.

The summary sucks - they are redirecting traffic so using a different web browser does not help.
