Except that those who study evolution can say "If I can find something that satisfies this requirement, then I am wrong." A creationist has neatly wrapped all of existance into one omnipotent being. Science is the evolutionist looking for the something to prove themselves wrong; faith is the creationist looking at any evidence and saying "It's God's will, to test our faith."
In practice, you always want to pick the best tool, no matter how maligned it is by the 'hard core' crowd. The difference, however, between you using a tool to avoid hand coding your 100 UI elements, and a new programmer using a tool to avoid code for their UI elements, is that you know how to hand code them. Like you said, you can hack assembler on hardware controllers. If you never touch on that kind of low level stuff in learning, you'll never understand how it affects the high level stuff you use to make a professional job easier.
He's talking about a closed loop system. The light from the ground is providing your heat source; the relative cold of the other side of the climber provides the heat sink.
If I were the guys released late, I'd definately get incarcerated in another jurisdiction next time... maybe someplace with the early release bug instead.
The reason that Intel's dual core processors can sell for less than AMD's is the same reason they get thrashed; Intel dual cores are simply a normal Intel dual proc setup in one package, while AMD's dual cores have a single die. The Intel offerings use the woefully slow FSB for intercore communication, whilst AMD uses a dedicated, full-speed bus.
In 10 thousand years, do you think an LCD will be any more impressive than a mechanical dial? The 40-year difference in tech in insignificant compared to the projected life cycle of this thing. The whole point is to make people realize the vastness of time.
The U.S. should foot the bill not for all the pollution, but for a major part of it because a large percentage of the products that are creating the pollution in China, Taiwan, etc. are sold to the U.S.. U.S. consumers aren't willing to produce these products in their own country because they would cost atleast twice as much and would pollute the U.S.. Hopefully the U.S. will lose it's scientific advantage (I believe it already has) and financial advantage (China is catching up) and will be forced to stop buying as many things from poorer countries and start creating their own.
It's not like we get the products for free; we pay for them. The manufacturer's of those products can foot the bill for cleaning up their mess. They won't, however, because that would make it more difficult to undercut companies in countries with actual environmental regulations. Oh, and it will be just so sad when we have to open the factories again. I don't know what Michael Moore will do when he gets his old job in Flint back...
It's PCI-Express, or PCI-e. PCI-X is a high-speed extension to the parallel PCI specification used for high-end expansion cards (RAID controllers, raytracers, etc)
The lanes per board limit isn't imposed by PCI-e, it's imposed by the chipset. There are chipsets that have enough lanes to provide two x16 slots (and motherboards that use them to do this), however they are still somewhat on the high end.
I actually tried building one of these for my MX700. Winding a flat spiral inductor is WAY harder than you would think. I never got one good enough to induce anything in my secondary coil.
Don't forget that whatever funky alloy they make those Sacagawea dollars from rusts within a couple of years. Might as well have made them from mild steel.
I think you missed my point. The grandparent thinks there should be a law allowing him to breach contract at any time. I said that's silly, what you're really looking for is a law that allows you to get a contract you won't need to breach. Yes, the comment was libertarian in nature, but I think that the suggested action was if anything more practical than the original proposed law.
1 - OK, good for you. 2 - If you don't like the terms, don't sign, simple as that. If the man at the cell phone store intimidates you, that's your problem. 3 - Well, apparently it *is* important to you. You only shop for a house a few times; checking one more thing isn't that big of a deal.
You're the one who signed the contract; it's your responsibility to negotiate an escape clause for the poor service after a change of residence. Or, when buying the house, you could have checked cell coverage when seeing how the neighbors are and if the faucets leak. Blaming the company for you not thinking ahead is kind of silly.
No one has to adhere to the laws the US sets down. However, many nations enjoy trading with the US, and a stipulation of that trade is often that you can't make knock off versions of patented/copyrighted US goods. No one *forces* anyone into trade agreements.
Theoretically, an autonomous vehicle should be able to pick up one's kids and drive them elsewhere if it's scheduled (time and location) and the parents are both busy, but I have my doubts as to whether this would be a good thing to do.
I can see a movie around the idea of someone reprogramming people's cars (yay bluetooth hacks!) to deliver their children to a sweatshop: it's got everything, fear of technology, the opportunity for some wicked robot car chase scenes...
This is where you take a lead from Keyser Söze, and start whacking family members in front of the assailant. This tends to make them sit back and reflect on their life.

I can't help but wonder what would happen if everyone started "accidentally" microwaving their passports.

The State Department would rake in a ton of money from the passport fees when people needed a passport without a burnt hole through it

In other news, a man in Delaware has been found guilty of beating another man to death with a toaster. The toaster industry declined to comment.

And internet cafes are everywhere and are widely used. You get an hour of computer use for the price of a few postal stamps.
So, we don't need to be giving stuff away then? Looks like capitalism already got the machines and the software in place.

I wonder how frequently I would need to mail $100 bills with "Repeal the DMCA" on them to my congresspersons before they would do something ...

Products which we pay them for, fueling a large portion of their economy. A day may come, "Why the Americans don't buy our products?"

$5 is probably a heck of a lot more than they make off the commercials one person sees during an episode ...

Arguing for the right to negotiate is one thing; arguing for the right to renege on a contract is another.
