Those dastardly Jews, wanting to preserve their culture, faith, and race by.. not marrying outsiders particularly often. Oh what a terrible injustice that is on the rest of the world. That one thing certainly justifies everything from genocide to the destruction of their state, followed by more genocide.
My concern (I'm not a lawyer) would be chain of evidence. If the family friend gets the info and it proves it was accidental (not sure how, but the details were not revealed in the question), how can the insurance companies (or whomever would be paying for the funeral if accidental) believe it?
I would think the best option, sadly, would be to pay whoever the police department uses to handle this type of evidence to take a look at the machine and email accounts.
But as I am not a lawyer, I don't know if that's a valid concern.
five years ago all the distribution installers plastered warnings of 'experimental support' and/or 'not recommended' all over the "reiserfs" option during the repartitioning phase.
Who was using it in an enterprise environment, and did they get something substantially better than the end-user desktop environment was getting?
But.. why would you give him access to the internet?
If they want to let him work on the filesystem, all he needs is a computer of his own. He can transfer printouts of the program listing if he wants to update anything.
They'd only have to monitor the printouts, and only when they felt like bringing him a printer.
color laser printers have lousy color. It's vivid, and great for presentations, but photographic images come out all saturated and odd-looking.
Still, they're not much better on an inkjet, and if you factor in the price of both the ink and the "high quality photo paper" it works out to be MUCH cheaper to print all your photos at the drugstore kiosk.
$15 for a pack right? Canon color inks are (or were when I owned a canon. CVS does my color printing, now) in separate tanks, so a color pack that costs circa $18 would equate to "individual" carts* that cost $6 ea.
*GP most certainly did not mean "cartridges" which on canon printers are a full replacement of all ink tanks and print heads.
I dunno. If there really are cartridges or even ink packs for only $6 though, I might consider buying another inkjet.
It can also cause bubble markets (cf tech bubble, property bubbles, etc).
That is an entirely different kind of speculation that is not in any way mappable to the futures market. Further that money came back when all the bubble buyers got hit hard. Although the "bottom leveler's" probably knew there was nothing and got out in time to scam the "market gamblers."
In the commodities market, people buying up futures triggers more production. That production floods the market at harvest time (which, not coincidentally, coincides with the expiration date on the futures) and, if the demand is not there, depresses the price.
With stocks, there is no fixed expiration date, and no harvest time. Fortunately, the price of stocks doesn't directly affect the price of anything.
If the price is rising for a commodity over a long term (at least one harvest cycle, for corn it's been a few, I seem to recall stories of Mexicans complaining about tortilla prices as far back as 2005) then the only reason is that supply is not keeping up with demand. Whether or not we should try to fix it, and if so by trying to tweak demand or improve supply is a matter for debate, but the corn prices and probably even the oil prices aren't going to move downward without some fundamental changes.
I'm pretty sure that they see a formidable business case for cow-towing to big content producers
Not a perticularly good case, though, since the entire US film industry has lower total revenues than Microsoft's profit. Whatever small margin they could skim (and with hollywood accounting...) from that wouldn't come anywhere close to being worth alienating their existing customer base.
Fundamentalism at its core is the belief that the world would be better if everyone thought the same way that you do.
Indeed it is. But suppose the world actually would be better if everyone thought the same way that you do.
Fundamentalism, in and of itself, is no indictment. Where is the middle ground between good and evil? How would that be a better goal than just "good"?
Interesting, but could he not get out anyway with "time served?"
seriously though, if he gets out and actually finds her alive, he should just call the cops. Faking your death and getting someone sent to prison for decades over it ought to have a pretty significant penalty.
Not if he purchased the books after the murder. Then it just looks like he was looking for ideas to help him get away with a murder already committed, which may or may not have been premeditated.
No, you're not seeing the point. Whatever it is that makes the US such a popular place to emigrate to, and it still is pretty popular despite recent developments, we should maintain that.
I think it's partially geography and partially culture that is responsible for our success. Now, I can't do anything about geography, so I'm going to ignore that bit for a moment. The cultural bit is interesting.
If you try to absorb too many people of a different culture into your own, you will fail. There is a continuum of influx that ranges from "successfully indoctrinated" to "overwhelmed by incoming culture" and if the culture does, indeed, play a significant role in our success (so far), then we should try to preserve that culture, by limiting immigration to the left side of the range.
It's not about who is "deserving" or not. It's simply about cultural preservation. I'd like to see as many people as possible come into this country and be successful, but if they're coming from cultures where people are traditionally not successful, I don't want, by sheer volume of immigrants, to be forced to incorporate those aspects of their culture that have been detrimental.
Now, I think that there are aspects of other cultures that would be nice to incorporate into our own, but that we, as a culture should decide what to incorporate, rather than the other culture. Now, the people already here are the culture, so your "export list" is a tad baffling.
So yes, we should bring in as many people as we can, but no more. Lest we lose the thing that made them want to come here in the first place.
Why is that sad? What's wrong with having multiple separate systems, anyway?
I mean, I'm a chest-thumping nationalistic patriot, but even I can see that the extra system will be a good thing for everyone. On the political side, we won't have to worry about Europeans getting their panties in a bunch over our control of our, very useful, system, because they'll have their own. On the device side, it's always good to have redundancy, even if the US didn't reserve the right to selectively degrade the signal without warning for any reason.
In fact, I think you'll find that the European system and the US system will cooperate more than anything else. Any selective degradation for tactical reasons will most likely be mirrored by the other system; as your descendants, we do have similar interests more often than not. And flight-rated GPS will be much more robust: tests of the selective availability feature can be alternated between systems and locations, so aircraft will always have at least one fully functional signal to rely on.
That said, I think it's kind of odd how they're paying for it: Member countries of the EU should decide whether or not to fund it, "surplus" subsidy money shouldn't just be re purposed as if it doesn't belong to anyone. It belongs to the states that provided it, and ultimately to their citizens.
That's what saddens me: when politics "forces" an expedient solution rather than a righteous one.
Market speculation can only have short-term effects. And in general speculation has a price-smoothing effect. It's part of the feedback system.
Speculators on commodities which do better than they predict (or worse depending on what direction the speculators are speculating on) lose money.
So.. it's possible for a short term blip in pricing due to speculation, (like a month worth of under-predicted oil futures) but it's a self-correcting system: the people who correctly predict the market conditions (3 months, 9 months, or whatever the term of the futures are) are rewarded, and the losers lose big sometimes.
A years-long steady rise in price can only be due to a few factors: production limitations, increased demand, and currency devaluation are the biggest causes, and have nothing to do with the futures market whatsoever.
There is also the development of monopolies or collusion, as per DeBeers' long-time hold on the "natural" diamond market. In the US that would be investigated and the offending companies broken up (depending on how politically..active..they were....), but this also doesn't have anything to do with market speculation.
And yes, I'm calling Banky Moon, and the rest of the empty suits at the UN morons for failing to comprehend the basics of the futures market (especially the agricultural futures market, in which a rise in futures prices will affect the amount of crops planted, with the consequence of downward pressure on crop pricing at harvest time) I mean, jeez, the producers of "trading places" demonstrated a better fundamental grasp of the futures market than supposed world leaders.
If you choose to use a card supported by the chip manufacturer under Linux you wouldn't have a problem.
It hasn't been my experience that you actually get to choose that kind of thing. For me it always goes,
1) look through the formums and "supported hardware" list with tabs open on beststaplesmaxbuy depotcity. Scroll through the list to find a couple inexpensive cards that also appear on the "supported hardware" list.
2) go out and buy/order the card.
3) get the card and discover that the box you've got has some fine print: hardware revision. Look at the compatibility matrix and sure enough, no information is available about the hardware you've bought. Three months later, it's confirmed: the revision was a chipset revision, possibly combined reduced specifications. And it's always to an unsupported chipset.
Also, the hardware you wanted is not sold anywhere any more.
What line are we using, now? I'd better check my stack of talking-points memos...
Algae looks good.
Ethanol, not so much. I just don't see it making us "significantly better off" than we are right now, using any measure other than how many corn executives are addicted to drugs, blackjack, and hookers.
I'll change my tune, though, once someone runs an entire ethanol-fuel supply chain without using a single drop of oil as feedstock or fuel at any level, and supplies us with the numbers (like.. net output per acre, what kind of land it is, etc) and the numbers look economically viable (factoring out any subsidies) and environmentally sustainable.

Other dimensions would be additional length or time like dimensions.

That is the direct cost. Since that is only 10 billion more than Microsoft's revenue. And where do you think they get that revenue?

Ok, I'm calling BS on part of that.
1) English is a germanic language, and you can almost understand one if you know the other and many technical words are shared, verbatim.
2) Both languages currently use the roman alphabet. In which spellings are semi-phonetic.
