You do tests in ideal conditions, so that if/when the test fails, the conditions can't be blamed and you can figure out the REAL reason for the failure and fix it. This is science 101 here...
"Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. By now you should be smelling the smoke from our burning APU - don't worry; Since the APU only runs on the ground, you are at no risk whatsoever from it."
Uhm, as the husband of a woman who just gave birth, I can attest that women do indeed need more than a week, and giving birth was NOT the equivalent of a day surgery.
I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt here. I've heard the $10 ones can be flaky and not always work well. That's why my dad splurged and got a $25 one.:-P
How is this news? I got a ODB2 -> Bluetooth adapter last year, and that was after a year or two of thinking about it. I use Torque on my Android to track my mileage, chirp at me when I go over a speed I set, and track engine performance.
The only thing here that *might* be news is the gamification of ODB2 stats, but who really cares about that?
Oh, and my dad just picked up a ODB2 -> Bluetooth adapter for about $25 and it works great, so why would anyone want to spend $70 on one!?
Everyone quotes "education" as a copyright exemption, but the education exemption is actually quite narrow. There must be NO other (non-copyrighted) way of showing/demonstrating what you are using, and you must use the LEAST amount of it possible to successfully show/demonstrate what you are teaching.
If you are teaching music, you can't just start playing every album ever made and say "it's education, it's exempt!" You can't even play an entire song and say "did you hear that cord progression at the beginning?". What you CAN do is play the part of the song with said progression. If you were teaching about song structure, then you could use the whole song. Both of these examples still assume there was no other source of non-copyrighted work you could have used instead.
Many trade schools have a right to their students work. I went to one and part of the student agreement I signed was a perpetual license to use my work created there royalty-free for advertising purposes. I saw no problem with that, especially since the agreement specifically said that I still owned the copyright to the work.
Mod parent up. The "flower" input method is great! I haven't used it on Steam, but I used it ages ago in a web browser on my XBox 1. It's easy and intuitive to learn and once you get good you can type fairly fast.
1. Highlight the link (Instructions for doing this posted in parent) 2. Hold "ctrl" and type "CTV" (Then release "ctrl", you insensitive clod!) 3. Press enter. 4. Profit!!!
A well planned data center will have a fuel-delivery contract that says something along the lines of: "After X days, you must be able to deliver Y fuel every Z days. If you don't or can't deliver Y fuel every Z days, you pay us for the downtime we incur."
As long as they have enough fuel onsite to last X days, they are fine; The fuel delivery company is on the hook if they go down. (Assuming everything is regularly tested and in good working order.)
When I was in college, I was going to be a CS major, but I *HATE* programming front-ends. Being forced to make a game my first semester made me quit CS. Game programming should be a sub category of CS, rather than a requirement.

Wouldn't a documentary about the "Happy Birthday" song which only has a single scene in which the song was sung, fall under fair use laws?

There is at least 1 progress bar which is perfectly accurate!

Of you can use the good-old "CTV" shortcut...

It would keep the programmers productive!
