How do you get enough B12? You know you need that for blood cell production and mylenation, right?
Oh... and you can't it from plants or fungi. It works it's way into the food chain from microbes and, as stated, doesn't make it's way up said chain via plants of fungi.... now, some folks (myself included) have to take sublingual* supplements of cyanocobalamin anyway, but if you don't eat even a little bit of meat now and then you don't have a choice (unless things like permanent neurological damage and anemia appeal to you)
Please don't make your diet out to be as simple as that, because it's not. We are omnivores. We have been omnivores for a very long time. There are things that we require for normal function that you can't get without being an omnivore, or using something our technology gives us (such as cyanocobalamin). Granted, a healthy human liver has several years worth of the stuff saved away, but go vegan for a few decades without taking care of this and you will have an issue.
* - pills do not work well, nearly all of what you take in that way will be destroyed by your upper GI before it's possible to absorb it. you need either sublingual or intravenous supplementation if diet alone doesn't cut it.
No kidding, it takes me 10 minutes to get the damn onion, peel off the crud outside, and chop it into suitably consistent pieces without including my fingers in said chopping.
My first job was behind a meat counter, and I did that for over a year. I'm not exactly clumsy or lacking in experience handling knives, either. That shit takes too long.
That is one great thing about G+ unlike Twitter or others, they actually listen to their users and design the system for users rather than solely their own whims/needs.
Oh, another good one - if a site is using the oath2 API to pull your name and such.... you can't authenticate without joining Google+! Delete your "page" and you'll lose your oath access as well. See here for more information on this nice little fuck-you from Google.
Think back - how many times have you bought things that were built/manufactured/grown by the same company selling it to you? That's an exceedingly rare circumstance and demanding Tesla has to do that (with the only visible reason being their product is better) doesn't seem fair.
(assuming by 'regs' we are all talking about amateur radio specifically, because outside of that there certainly is encryption in use)
Lots of commentary here, but this is US FCC-centric. Probably the same lines of thinking.
Basically encryption (to a point) is makes it impossible to enforce... actually most of part 97 entirely... let alone detect that a violation has occurred. Keep in mind that we are (for the most part) self-policed which raises the burden even more. If the FCC couldn't decode it, you'd expect us to?
Example: how can you be sure a communication is noncommercial in nature if you cannot understand it? You can't... and that is the first requirement - at least on the US side.
97.1 Basis and purpose.
The rules and regulations in this part are designed to provide an amateur radio service having a fundamental purpose as expressed in the following principles:
(a) Recognition and enhancement of the value of the amateur service to the public as a voluntary noncommercial communication service, particularly with respect to providing emergency communications.

Doesn't contain much cobalamin...

Also, for various reasons, there is an inverse relationship between the "realness" of food and the distance it travels from its source to your plate.
As accurate as the rest of that may be, this last bit is bullshit.
An apple shipped to Florida from Washington is just as much an apple as one grown a few hundred miles away.
Start reading, stop assuming.

Really? Then why does it still exist?
The only change I'm interested in Google+ implementing is the change to a deprecated/decomissioned status.

You should know by now that "interstate commerce" basically means "anything the Feds want it to mean at that particular moment."

OK. Maybe the problem is with the power supply feeding that kilowatt bastard booster...
What does he think a cellphone is?
It's nothing but a digital radio with a rather large interconnected repeater network on the other side.
65 miles one way, to be clear...
Indeed. I'd love that kind of commute.
I drive 65 miles... and I would love to live closer, but it's either too expensive or bad neighborhoods!
I drive 120 miles, 5 days a week. ... what kind of cycle count would these batteries have?
For the same reason the Canadarm does... to anchor it to various points on the vehicle.
Like the Canadarm?
Gee, maybe the agency that needed it's services and couldn't do it itself?
I'd think most expensive satellites have some form of thruster on them for retasking, station adjustment, and debris avoidance...?
Or, one could fall back on terrestrial radio for all of these examples...
Please define "organic food."
All food is organic, because our metabolism is organic chemistry.
Just checked with Firefox, Safari, and IE. The only thing special is that Firefox has adblock plus on it.
No, that's dumb. Electrical appliances don't work without electricity. 2+2=4.
So why don't they focus on training to use the equipment they already have?
