In Britain, storage heaters are fairly popular. They contain bricks which are heated up overnight when electricity is cheap, and the heat is released during the day. You can get a stored heat tariff from most electricity companies which lets them decide when to supply electricity to the heating circuit, and the electricity on that circuit is much cheaper than the electricity to the rest of the hose.
It would take something like 3kWh of off peak energy to supply 1kWh of peak energy. I'm not sure what the price differential is in your area, but it might still be better to take it off the grid.
They are trying to set up another Kontiki. Kontiki networks only serve legal content, and sometimes you have to pay for it. Customers don't like using their bandwidth in that way.
Surely on pdf you can just convert the text to vector graphics, then you don't need any licence at all. Fonts are not copyrightable, it is only the "font software" that is subject to copyright.
There are about 250,000 or so words in the dictionary. Any semi decent computer can go through them pretty much instantly. 10 characters mixed case + numbers gives you 839,299,365,868,340,224 possible combinations, and you need to add the possibilities for 9 characters, 8 characters etc to that. Brute force will take a while, but precomputed hash tables will do it pretty much instantly if they are available for the system you are trying to crack. Windows Passwords are the easiest to find hash tables for.
You boot up your laptop from a CD or USB drive, then run a rainbow table attack on it. It can generally do up to 14 characters, full character set, in a matter of seconds.
Or alternatively, image the drive and reset the password on it.
In computer-space we have either directories/files or folders/documents.
In any case, word excel and powerpoint documents can contain multiple sheets of paper, and I see a lot of people take that to extremes - for example having all the day's letters contained in one word document, or every single spreadsheet they work on in one excel document.
There is a slight problem in that there is no such thing as UK law. There is English (and Welsh) law, Scottish Law and Northern Irish law. They are three different countries for legal purposes.
It is a criminal offence if you breach copyright for commercial gain, but uploading photos to wikipedia is non-commercial, so it would be a civil trial.
Maybe so, but that doesn't help when you are stranded somewhere with a credit card that doesn't work because someone has used up all the limit on it. You also don't get reimbursed for the hassle caused in trying to sort it out.

It takes place 24/7. Shutting down the plant and starting it up again is extremely inefficient.
Aluminium smelters generally live next to their own power station or hydro generator because they take so much electricity.

Surely a lot of people would leave their car on the charger overnight, so it is fully charged and ready to go in the morning?
That's certainly what I do with my phone. Of course the 1940mAh capacity of that battery is nothing in the overall scheme of things.
Other than the access control functions, Sharepoint doesn't do any of these things either.
There is actually 1.66 children per household in the UK. https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/UK.html
I have of course heard of the comedy program 2.4 children.

English law sides with you, and the gallery, American law sides with Wikipedia.
Try typing £. Then you get a nice looking £ sign without any extra characters.
You can do that already with .gif images, or with flash.

He thought he was going to be able to say that he offered $1m for evidence and nobody took him up on it because it was impossible.
Justin Frankel didn't have permission to release the source code under the GPL in the first place as it belonged to his employer, not to him.
I thought they had, but it is GPL3 which is not compatible with the GPL2 licence Linux uses.

A firewall in the real world is not a wall of fire, it is a type of wall that prevents flames from spreading from one side to another.

The museum doesn't automatically own the copyright. The artist owns the copyright and can sell the painting without assigning the copyright.
