What do we do if the sun goes into red giant mode?"
The answer by the way, is "not much".
First of all, we have billions of years before that happens. Second of all, we can just move the Earth a little farther from the sun (if we're still living here or it has sufficient sentimental value). This, incidentally, relates to asteroids in that we can use the slingshot effect to transfer energy and momentum from asteroids to planet.
A plan to save us from NEOs would require some ability to actually reach an NEO before it hit.
Any plan to reach a NEO before it hits requires some ability to detect them (preferably when they're far enough away that we only need to give them a gentle nudge).
I click on the sponsored link when the sponsored link is the exact url I wanted to go to. I wonder if this marks me as "someone who clicks on ads target him for more ads".
Garbage collectors are one of the most dangerous job on the planet, largely due to the risk of a fatal crash. I imagine it's even worse if you haven't had your morning Java.
Really? So, in theory, a planet could change from not being detected by our current techniques to detected by them, and that isn't "rejuvenation"?
Correct. Just like when an obscure person becomes well-known, it doesn't make them any younger. And when your body temperature soars during cremation, you also aren't any younger.
The Qihoo router normally emits dangerous-sounding em radiation, by default. Best to avoid their routers, but if you're stuck with them be sure to enable the safe mode. Other companies' routers always run in safe mode, which is why they don't have that setting.
This whole Confederate flag business is definitely not a distraction from the recent Senate vote to fast track things like the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP). Look, a squirrel!
What’s often referred to as the “Western diet,” or foods that are high in fat, sugars and simple carbohydrates, has been linked to a range of chronic illnesses in the United States,
I seem to recall also that eating excessive amounts of protein is also bad for you.
I guess it's time to start avoiding foods that are high in food.

Freedom of Speech has never implied freedom from responsibility.
It does if by "responsibility" you mean "consequences". And especially if by "consequences" you mean "government will do nasty things to you".
Hint: libel laws are an exception to free speech, not a "responsibility".
But does the HUD reduce profit margins?

"Avira flags all that crapware that most other antiviruses are paid to ignore," said a spokesman for Freemium.com.
Got it. Bugs in the airplane's airflow decrease fuel economy, but aren't considered a safety concern.
Oh, well. It's no skin off my nose.
At lest the weather looks promising.
Never mind. I'm not in the mood for a philosophical debate.

Looks like they put a government construction worker in charge of a programming team.

Well, presumably they still don't fade (and shouldn't bleach nor bleed).
Wah! Wah! Testing is too hard. Fuck that.
No, silly. The game is still digital. The purchase can be of a physical CD using physical money.

There's an app for that.
People have been known to wish they had at least the understanding of English as a first grade student.
Surely if we have the technology to turn a dead worl into a living one, we must have the technology to properly maintain an already living one.
Oh, we do... it's called a "bullet".

But synthetic blood is so much more convenient.
