Worst case scenario (criminal has your card and it isn't cancelled) chip+PIN is no worse than mag stripe+signature. In all other cases, chip+PIN is far superior.
1. I should probably have mentioned something like "No idea what the operating costs are like though".
2. I'm not advocating anything beyond making power by whatever means are available. Nor am I opposing anything. I do work for a power company, but AFAIK, we're open to anything as far as sources of generation, given that coal is going away shortly and we need to find somewhere to replace that and supply the demand growth.
Look, the article gave up front costs, the OP asked how that compared to other generation, I had a number on hand for NG, and offered it. That's all.
I wasn't dismissing it. I was just supplying information I know, namely that the upfront cost is comparable to natural gas. I have no idea about ongoing operating costs of either large scale solar or NG.
So that would be 225/55R17. The only tires I'm finding that get into the $1k/set price range are high-performance winter tires built for going way faster than you should in winter.
In that size, the winter tires I use (Goodyear Nordics) would run about $728 for a set (or about 2/3rds that if you snap them up when they're on sale in February/March). And my previous set of them lasted me for 4 years, and probably would have lasted at least another 4 if some asshole hadn't stuck a knife in them.
Yeah, but 3 sentences later they say they drive a "front wheel drive car". $1k is some rather large car tires, unless they're looking at fancy performance tires or something. 18" of the tires I use would come to like $700-800, and that's with Canadian prices.
I think DARPA has some ideas on direct nerve-electrode connection, though I think their current work on PROTO 2 is using a technique called Targeted Muscle Reinnervation, which AFAICT, is essentially rewiring the nerves to some muscle near the amputated limb and reading impulses off that with implanted myoelectric sensors.
Is the fever a side result of the effect of the virus on the organism ? Or is it a way for the organism to fight the virus and eliminate it ? Because we get fevers in most cases of severe infections and I doubt most germs are sensitive to a 3C increase in body temperature... I can still brew beer from anything like 10C to 40C...
Most viruses and bacteria are more temperature sensitive than yeast is. Also, higher temperatures improve the function of white blood cells and reduces the effects of endotoxins.

4.4 billion for 4GW is $1100/KW, which is about comparable to simple cycle natural gas turbines, IIRC.
But NG is peaking and dispatchable as hell, unlike solar.
Just because you're in an airport doesn't mean you're getting on a plane.
What makes you think you need to use it for them to track stuff?

I cannot afford $1k on tires every winter
The hell? You don't need new tires every winter.
And what the heck do you drive that tires cost $1k for a set?

Isn't a sequenced human genome only something like half a gig?
Wrong machine. This finding is from Opportunity (a solar-powered rover, same design as Spirit), not Curiosity.
I dunno. Their softest rubber-like material for this printer is supposed to be 27A. Might be soft enough.
No, this isn't filament. It's an advanced stereolithographic resin system. It's kinda like a 3D inkjet printer.
1. $330,000.
2. Can't find any numbers, but 3-4 digits per litre seems likely.
34251 x 67453 isn't really more difficult than 23 x 65, merely longer. You just repeat the exact same steps more times.
I'll take it you didn't even read the title, much less the summery or the article itself?
Can't you use SI prefixes like the rest of the world does for large/small quantities of units?
We get dragged down because the Conservatism pandemic jumped the border back in 2006.

Freedom of the press is limited to those who own one.
In modern times, pretty much anyone can own one.
the same code of conduct/ethics as a traditional journalist.
You mean none?

Start with standard general anesthesia.
And then you don't have those drugs available anymore because the exports of them are blocked.
