No, liquid fuels don't require a lot of NEW infrastructure to store and transfer. A lot of the infrastructure installation costs have been paid already, but that doesn't mean the tanks, piping and gobs of safety equipment isn't there.
At the dawn of the automobile industry there was no infrastructure setup for gas cars, everything was setup for horses. That quickly changed as stables went out of business and gas stations popped up. All that change wasn't free.
All in all the transition to electric vehicles would be a lot cheaper and less disruptive than the one from horses to gas cars. There are still a good number of similarities between the two technologies, if only in form. And a current gas station could fully transition to electric by replacing their underground storage tank with an underground battery/capacitor bank, no need to completely redesign their business. The first big benefit is the lack of gasoline spills/leaks to worry about, cutting down on the need for a fluid barrier underground.
The 80's predicted cable would expand to thousands of channels. Hyper specific channels so at any one time you could find the exact programming you desire and keep your eyeballs glued to the screen. And ESPN, with their multiple channels, was the first to the gate. They fantasied for twenty years how much revenue they could pull with lots of channels serving hyper specific programming. Too bad the prediction was off by a delivery mechanism. Hyper specific info streams are the norm, but it isn't the product of TV studios.
This is them getting pissy that reality keeps diverging more from their plan. They're fighting back as much as possible trying to salvage it.
They did extensive testing with scale models and some ice cubes from the pub down the road. Per their tests it can even survive an iceberg falling in it from hundreds of feet up.

Pretty much every cop show/movie will pull this at some point. Whether it's the Loose Cannon being tough on crime to get results, or the 100% By The Book Boyscout (who doesn't even jay walk when chasing a fleeing suspect) doing it after the badguys do something so evil it's the only alternative (or they made him snap and he goes into Badass Loose Cannon mode for the rest of the film).
Voip modified to support stream handoff. If a handset gets a new network signal (wifi or just a better 3g/4g connection) with a higher priority, it could sign into the voip servers over the new connection without killing the other session and schedule a stream handoff from the lower priority connection to the new one. Basically what a cell signal already does when a user moves between towers, but Over The Internet. So probably already patented by 30 different companies.
This is why I would love to see a cheap data only service. There is no reason for smartphones to have dedicated voice/text service when it could all be taken care of by a data connection and a VoIP provider.
Exactly. Battery waste has to be properly recycled/disposed of so it doesn't harm the environment or human health. This is seen as a fair cost that's just for using the product.
Gas waste (chemical/particulate/sound) is free to dispose of after minimal to no processing by blowing it out a tube into the open air. Usually within feet of other people and therefor directly into their air supply, causing all sorts of long term issues. But anyone daring to suggest the stuff be taxed to recoup what it costs to repair/mitigate the issues it causes and the cries of fascism and liberal nannystate dictatorships ring clear from the top of every mountain and soapbox for miles around.
Gas prices need to go up, and not in a way that enriches the guys who sell the stuff. At the very least tax it based on how much it costs to scrub a gallon's worth of exhaust soot off the side of a building. Or how much it costs to build/maintain a sound wall between a road and a residential area.
"I know it needs to be done, but it's no use doing anything until we have a 100% perfect solution." is what opponents put out to keep any progress from happening. Make sure the chicken/egg debate never gets settled by telling both sides the other has to go first.
Will smith did all those parts? DAMN, that guy's more talented than I thought. And here I thought Eddie Murphy held the crown for fewest co-stars in a single movie.
Exactly, the peons on all sides hate the TSA. But like a community theater writer/director/producer/star it is the GOP's vision and any criticism is just ignorance in their eyes.
I would assume they can fix the lateral velocity. If it can land but fall over then it's going quite slowly laterally. Any real residual motion and it would have been reported bouncing/somersaulting off.
I'm sure worst case scenario is they invent the batarrang and launch 3-4 stabilizing tie down cables when it lands.
Unfortunately, even if the gropers were french muslim abortion doctors with middle eastern ties and we spin it as a full infiltration, they wouldn't dare shut down their security theater. Just replace the actors from the middle down and parade it as a victory against terrorism.
Your first 4 words answered your own question. It's just random racism. A troll post designed to elicit a predictable response so the trolls can convince themselves they're some kind of puppet master and therefor superior.
Since they're protected from meaningful responses by internet anonymity, just ignore them. And if you feel the overrhougiding need to respond, keep it short and simple. Don't respond with humor though. That can be misinterpreted as a kindred spirit agreeing with them and getting in on the action.
Decent people should be against having control of their own information stream. Decent people shouldn't trust themselves to have their best interests at heart. Decent people should submit to obvious superior corporate control. Are you a decent person citizen?
Playing madlibs with redacted documents is fun. "I think that if 'SEAN CONNERY' 'HIT A HOME RUN' then 'ASTRONOMY' because.'RAISIN' 'DANCE' 'FEVER'. Really.
Someone should make an app that turns redacted documents into adlib games. It would get the cellphone generation reading national security documents. Maybe even retain some info.
Not make a movie? I'd be surprised if they didn't make atleast half a dozen movies glorifying the rebel scum. And games, books, costumes, ect... I expect callous exploitation of this senseless tragedy for A Long Time to come.
Coast guard finds a locally unregistered megayacht floating in international waters without the owner present, claims it as maritime salvage. The owner can claim it by obtaining a deed, 10% sales tax plus salvage fees, berthing fees, security fees, and "keeping johnny and the other dock workers from having a little after work party in it" fees.
So the scale goes: Mostly dead- Slightly alive. Pretty dead- Don't expect them at poker night next friday. Dead dead- Attempted to invade the NSA. All dead- Go through their pockets and look for loose change. Extra dead- Now that's just excessive. I mean really, what possessed you to just keep going like that? Un dead- Well congratulations. You killed it so hard it went far past Dead on the Life-Death scale and looped around to the other side.

Those degenerate insects were born in a cell for crying out loud? What more proof do you need of their criminal nature?

Yup, not just cheaper but safer.
Too bad intel probably already tasked a dozen engineers to expand this to cover AMD as well.
They do buy us a step in the right direction.

From my experiences in LA: Clueless was documentary.
