Mind you, once you trim out all the ads, reality TV, "OW, my balls!"-style shows and the self-serving "OMG, this is a show about celebrities!" crap, you really only have a need for 5, maybe 10 kilobits/sec on average.
Look, if you want to go with that argument, you could transmit all of 'good' TV with a 300 baud modem.
I rented some TNG DVDs and was disappointed that I could hear that they were walking on plywood floors. I don't think duranium floors would make a hollow thud when you walk on them. Are they going to fix the sound so it will sound good on a surround-sound system?
So, you want to hear plywood squishing in 5:2? Not sure what sort of an improvement that would be, but hey, whatever floats your boat.
On the city's website is a better overview picture, as well as a map showing how it fits into the city.
Holy Crap! That's a cyclotron! Hasn't anybody else figured this out? If you guys think that the Reality Distortion Field is strong now, just wait until this puppy gets finished.
Uncountable infinite sets tend to be larger than countable sets by a factor of about 3-4, although it's gone down a little bit recently since the recession.
Still, better than my 401K. How to I transfer funds?
This distinction works right up until the point where, as some rumors have it, Apple discontinues the MacBook Air and Mac mini in favor of new iDevices that are glorified iPad and Apple TV and respectively.
Your argument works right up to the point were, as rumors typically go, they turn out to be false.
Save your angst and garment rendering for reality. It's bad enough as it is.
Just get a amateur radio liscense and set up a mobile HF rig with a giant 9 foot antenna festooned with strange looking wires and metal bits. Aside from scaring the crap out of anyone in a 500 yard radius when the antenna hits a low overhang, it's visible for miles.
Yes, you're the typical grandmother if ever there was one.
She is now.
Really, maybe not '20 years of C programming' (that puts her in crazy land), but everything else is fairly typical these days. Outside of Pakistan, that is.
It rather seems that your military procurement folks are worse off than hours. Which is a truly scary concept.
The Register (I know, not the most neutral or sane of journalism outlets, but still) has run a series of articles on the Nimrod sub hunter. This was a 1940's era jet refitted as a submarine hunter (ala the Lockeed P3) but at a cost that rivaled the shuttle or a B2.
Truly outstanding.
But you do draw an unnecessary inference - the British military procurement office can be incompetent AND the contractors greedy little felons. Welcome to 'civilization'.

Nope, Behavioural Brain Research is peer-reviewed and appears pretty legit..
It is legit, but it's an Elsevier journal which means it is just one of literally hundreds of low impact, not so difficult to get published journals. They are peer reviewed, but that doesn't mean the research is correct nor particularly interesting. It's also behind a paywall.... Sigh.
The birdcage of research is papered with Elsevier journals....
Those 20 ton stainless steel containment domes are going to be hell on shipping charges. And the DIY route is going to be hard as well. Scavenging every piece of metal in a 10 mile radius and welding it together is going to piss off my neighbors a bit.

All right! They've got two customers!
Go for it HTC!
What the hell? I was unaware that there are different classes of citizenship. What if a person born as an American did this?
You're given New Jersey residency and forced to live in Trenton.
Man, that is one twisted human being.

This just can't end well.
Huh. That's interesting. And here I thought that the Architect's job was most to spend expensive hours arguing with the Engineer.

Another law from time immemorial:
A poorly planned project takes three times as long to complete as planned.
A carefully planned project only takes twice as long.
Just like the F-22, F-35, B1, B2, any naval contract in the last two decades and on and on.
I think the last military contract that came in on budget was for a bunch of shower stalls during the Korean war.

You guys drink birds? You're doing it wrong.

The attacker relies on the fact that users will always mistype a certain percentage of e-mails they send.
Who is doing this? Who types email addresses and doesn't use a contacts list or similar?
I suppose this is Window's fault but typing is so 20th Century....
"Easy".
I don't think that word means what you think it means.

We will eventually be forced to re-think a lot of cherished beliefs about brains, minds, and behavior.
That rather is the point of doing the research, is it not?
