Basement: Can't see anything outside; able to study radar images and scientific data transmitted from Venus probe; can go outside if necessary; cheap.
Manned Venus mission: Can't see anything outside; able to study radar images; able to go outside to stand in corrosive acid cloud (assuming you wear the right suit); super-expensive.
Huh I see. So I just checked, it's only certified ECG when you touch a metal bit in it with your other hand. Yeah that's technically feasible for a single channel ECG. Not really sure how useful that is. It's certainly not a continuous monitoring device that's for sure.
I broke some bones in an accident and ended up in hospital. When they did an ECG they found I had AFib without being aware of it. I wonder if anyone's new watch will give them a surprise like that. It's not like healthy thirty- and forty-somethings get ECGs that often.
Thank G-d for the fact that a lot of people can't wire in a light switch or change a tire. After all, it keeps the electricians and mechanics employed.
Lord Finchley tried to mend the Electric Light
Himself. It struck him dead: And serve him right!
It is the business of the wealthy man

Or perhaps you'd like some government deciding that because you've streamed some song or other—hm, I dunno, how about this one?—one too many times that you should be on a watchlist.
BC and AD are the traditional ways of designating eras. BCE and CE are common in some scholarly texts and in certain topic areas. Either convention may be appropriate for use in Wikipedia articles.

Not that I care too much about the copyright on 10 seconds of video where I cross the finish line.
First, back when the Internet Protocol was created, there weren't 4 billion people on Earth let alone 4 billion devices that needed to be connected to a network.
It was pretty close. World population was estimated to cross 4 billion in April 1974, while the paper describing IP was published in May 1974. Vint Cerf has apologized for choosing 32 bits, saying "The problem is the experiment never ended".
Take a look at the career of Chester Arthur. He gained the lucrative post of Collector of the Port of New York in 1871, as part of the political spoils system. Then in 1883, as president, he helped curtail the spoils system by signing the Pendleton Civil Service Reform Act. I don't think anybody (apart from the beneficiaries) would be very happy with the level of corruption in the 1870s.
The one third buying their house and cars may well be doing the right thing. It's a bit easier to justify renting movies, though, as there are very few you are going to watch more than once. As for inheriting a music or video collection - (a) it's probably in some obsolete or inconvenient format (33rpm, VHS, laserdisc), and (b) who wants every episode of Matlock?
What happens if cooperation is necessary for sustainability, but people don't cooperate and control the thermostats themselves?
Who then should have the final say?
Money works. Where I used to live there was a discount on power bills if you agreed to have a smart switch on your A/C. I never noticed any difference in temperature, and I paid less. I benefitted from the arrangement and so did the utility.
Just to clarify the how gmail ignores dots and does not let people set up accounts where only the dots differ:
"If the sender added or removed dots from your email address, the message will still go to your inbox. Your email address is unique; people can't set up an identical account even with a different number or placement of dots." Gmail help
President James Garfield was killed by older, experienced doctors, who ignored the "wash your hands before poking at wounds" nonsense espoused by the younger generation.
Sure the idea is great for people consuming the service- it isn't so great for the unwitting customers providing the service at the expense of their bandwidth and security.
Many people leave their homes from time to time, so they could get the "great" stuff along with this "unwitting" part (which is not a big bandwidth or security problem anyway). These are not two disjoint, mutually antagonistic groups.
If every generation is really 10% worse than the one before then we are just pond scum compared to Plato. And Plato's grandfather probably thought Plato could do a lot of things better.

I will miss the Dawn Journal which has been a fascinating description of the engineering behind the mission.

Electrons exist. So do positions. So do all other leptons.
Remember a world without autocorrect? Peppermint Farm remembers.
An "ordinance designed for firefighting" might be a law banning drones, or something like that. I think the submitter means "ordnance".

There's a Rick Astley watchlist?
BC and AD have gone out the window...
Not quite... here's another Wikipedia link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

I think you're confusing it with 10.x.x.x.
I don't think they are. For example: https://supportforums.cisco.co...

Itâ(TM)s a problem everywhere.
You're posting this on a site that can't deal with either smart quotes or IPv6. Any plans, Slashdot?
Based on Googleâ(TM)s stats, less than a quarter of google users are IPv6. https://www.google.com/intl/en...
That's a pretty good upward trend.
I wonder if the corruption was ever this bad

It's been going on a long time. Here's a peering cake from 2009.
It's a different phenomena, same name.
It's not even the same name. To quote the same article
This article is about the movement of fluids. For the phenomenon of general relativity, see gravitational wave.

I was wondering the same thing, because of mass concentrations ("mascons") on the moon. It looks like there are stable orbits as well.
Au contraire. The Mounties always get their LAN.
