I agree. Besides, what is the point of pardoning someone who's already dead? To be frank, even an apology is short of the mark. There is nothing they can do at this time apart from what has already been done, making this a rather futile exercise.
It works just like the start menu, only bigger. You use just like you would the regular start menu, type whatever you want to run and press enter. Don't see how this can be such a huge gripe. I haven't switched to Win8 yet but from what little I've used it, I couldn't find much of a problem with it apart from poor network drivers.
LD50 is not a very good measure of safety though, try TD50 (or maybe NOAEL if that's applicable to food). Death is not really interesting for food, like you said most toxins don't kill until very high dosages or very long chronic exposure. If prolonged exposure makes you sterile or whatnot, that risk won't be described by an LD50 rating. Having said that, I doubt any farm grown insects will be exposed toxins. What would be the point?
Aspirin is actually used as the generic name in the US (and Canada?) from what I understand. It's certainly easier to read and remember, but doesn't say anything about the structure of the molecule.
I don't really like politics but speaking of environmental nutjobs (not about to bash AGW)... IMO, the Greens in Sweden are more left than the Left (formerly known as the Left Party Communists) judging from their debates. The Centrist Party (formerly the Farmers' Union) who tried to be a more balanced green party have gone more or less neo-liberal, completely alienating their core voters. So neither of them are long-term viable political forces at the moment. I don't know anything about Germany though.
The Swedish Pirate Party are fairly sane as far as I can tell, but since their victory in the EU elections people seem to have forgotten about them.
Or, the other solution is assign the password, and don't let the user change his own. When it expires, a new one is generated. No reuse can happen when the user can't set any of their own passwords.
It would be hellish if every website started doing that. I'd have to recover my password every time I try to log in somewhere, or keep a big document of passwords (which is worse). At the moment I have 6 different passwords (8-10 char) in total, but they're mostly variations of the same base. Anything more complex than that and I would lose track.
Oh God, I had forgotten about those. Now I'm beset with horrifying flashbacks to my very first webpage, that blinking, rolling, animated hell. I even changed the cursor and the color of the scroll bar!
None the less, it will affect the customer if the business fails. I doubt most people running ad-blockers even stop to think about how their favourite website depends on them seeing adverts. I do but I've worked for an ad-revenue supported website and what I did was selling ad space, so I hardly consider myself the average reader. Even so, I still block most sites. I'd say the biggest problem with this whole phenomenon is that techy sites are more likely to be hurt. Otherwise it wouldn't be much of a problem since advertisers would just have accept that their scripts are enabling ad-blockers and ditch them. As it is, they'll just spend their money on websites with less tech-savy readers.
TFA doesn't really say anything about efficiency of oral hygiene, just that oral flora has become less diverse. I doubt eating coarse roots is more efficient than electric toothbrushes and chewing gum and all the other marvels of the modern age. If my assertion is correct and as you postulate that biodiversity is somehow affected by hygiene practices, this should have resulted in an increased biodiversity of the mouth, but that is apparently not the case (unless we are too effective these days).
Vaccinating for HIV usually has no real effect since it only immunizes the host to one HIV antigen when there a multitudes due to highly recombinant genes. The only way this vaccine could work is if it immunizes the host to all possible antigens of HIV or somehow allows the adaptive immune system to recognize some kind of shared antigen that is otherwise not recognized as being pathogenic.
Usually vaccinating for an infection already in place is pointless since the adaptive immune system will either already be primed and active or overrun by the pathogen and unable to deal with it.
This somewhat falls under poorly planned bike lanes. Having no bike lanes would probably lead to cyclists hugging the left side of the road anyway, which doesn't solve the problem. A good bike lane will preferably be separated from the car lanes and have its own crossing similar to pedestrian crossing. Not a perfect solution, but I doubt there is one besides having entirely separate bike roads (which isn't really feasible).
Also, bicycles need to be considered vehicles as any other as well as treated with appropriate respect for the fact that killing someone on a bike is easier than someone in a car. For maximum safety, roads need to be designed with both motorized vehicles and bicycles in mind and preferably under the assumption that people are stupid.
All in all, I'd rather see these people with poor sense of traffic on bikes than in the driver seat of a car.
I have a theory on this. I believe helmet wearing may cause the cyclist in question to become more reckless, due to a false sense of security. Sometimes it feels like cyclists behaving erratic in traffic are more prone to wearing helmets. Cause or effect, who knows? Anyway, I don't wear a helmet, because it looks stupid and won't do me much good if my ribcage is smashed by a car and my lungs get punctured, so I use caution instead. Plus, I haven't fallen of a bike since I was 14, even when drunk like a sailor on shore leave.
I'd say the number one risk to bicyclists are left turns (except in the Commonwealth of Nations) and mostly then because bike lanes are either poorly planned or non-existent.
I think I had snake once, and it was really quite tasty. I don't know which kind it was, or indeed if it really was a snake. The idea of snake farming is rather amusing though, especially if there's a risk/reward factor there. Is there a golden taste-to-poison ratio?
Howard: "Hey Sheldon, wanna see the new Harry Potter movie?"
The audience chuckles nervously
Sheldon: "No, Harry Potter is for children. I prefer realistic and dramatic films, such as Star Wars."
The audience laughs heartily
Sheldon: "Luke, I am your father!"
The audience begins laughing so hard they burst into flame and their lungs explode. They start pissing themselves from laughter, which fails to put out the flames but makes everything smell like burnt hair and urine. An older gentleman has a heart attack and dies on the floor, burning and covered in piss. The earth trembles below the studio, opening a gaping crack into the underbelly of the earth. Several members of the audience are dragged into the blackness, laughing so hard blood spills from their mouths as they descend into the molten core of the earth, smashing into the rock as they fall. The continued laughter echoes off the rock, causing the largest known earthquake in history, crippling the power grids of several of the world's major cities, plunging humankind into darkness for weeks. Martial law is called into effect as the riots increase in size and aggressiveness. As food begins to run out, haIf of the world's populace is dead, with the survivors now resorting to cannibalism and subsistence farming.

What's for dessert? Vancomycin?

You don't have to harvest good bits from an insect. It's mostly just the armoured ones. A grasshopper or a spider you can devour whole.

Well, there's always epigenetic changes... But those changes wouldn't be passed along anyway.
The only caveat is that they should make sure they lock down the machine well...
Is that necessary though? If I was in custody my first priority wouldn't be to check in on Facebook and idly browse porn.

It's been a widely supported theory for some time but perhaps, never proven until now.
Can they though? Last I heard they still didn't seem to have any idea on how to make money. Well, apart from selling the company to Facebook.
I agree completely.
SR 3 is on a separate key from the rest, so if you worried about that, don't enter it into your Steam. Simple as that.
Yes, but drier skin. Is there a correlation between dry skin and good insights?

34,000 suspects is hardly an ideal situation.

[...] porno movie showing people having sex with watermelons but saying that the watermelons were stand-ins for children?
This is my fetish.

Tall people do, statistically, earn more money though.
