Actually, my son has built the last three PCs in our house. All have Win 7 OS, range from 6 to 8 core AMD, with DDR3 usually 32GB and 1-2TB HDD or SSD, and a high end graphics card.
The fans on the CPUs wear out before anything else does.
If fossil fuels paid the true cost, according to the methods described by Adam Smith, the Father of Capitalism, which include the removal of mercantilist tax subsidies such as cheap extraction leases and no cost for pollution, then it might be competitive.
But we have artificial trade barriers in the use of subsidies and exemptions for fossil fuels that drive down the cost of fossil fuels. Things like free naval shipping lane protection by the US navy and air force given to China without cost.
The main problem is overuse of antibiotics - both in the food supply itself, and in every day usage, is breeding resistance to our current antibiotics. Combined with people going off meds before the antiobiotic regime is completed.
Discovering "new" antibiotics won't make that problem go away.
Technically, a city may not be larger than a county, so your example is moot. You may be confused with the different cities that are part of a multi-county Dallas (e.g. Arlington, or Fort Worth), or the difference between New York City and the other cities which you "call" New York City. If they're in a different county they are legally NOT the same city.
I for one welcome my remote car derby overlords and look forward to using my new 100 car derby racers to crash into buildings and lamp posts with great amusement!
I also blame sysadmins who frequently don't understand that security is contextual; you do not need the same level of password complexity for a gardening forum or slashdot that you need for your bank account. But you still see ridiculous requirements for low-security sites.
if you want a deal, you can download World of Warcraft for 75% off on Black Friday, but you'd be better off doing the Friends and Family thing instead - during the month when you get 2x experience you could get up to at least level 70.
MJ is legal in WA and CO - in terms of the Seahawks being suspended.
There are no methods to overturn an unjust invasion of Privacy and the constant violations of the US Constitution - nobody ever goes to jail for doing that.
Ever.
The revolution is coming fast, you can hear it boiling.
That said, we like authors and want them to get money. And books are more fun and don't have to be downloaded onto every device. If we want an ebook version we just get it FREE from the public library - usually when going on a trip or something.
Big Music - nah.
Most of the pirating going on is due to "region-encoding" or attempts to censor works or not distribute them in certain countries. No amount of legislation will stop that.
Slashdot Mirror
Actually, yes, but you're not supposed to know about it.
Will be fun to see how easy it is to use a drone to shut down these "taxis for the rich".

Ballmer forced this Windows 8 and 8.1 drek on us. Windows 7 use is UP because nobody wants this carp.
Get real, stop trying to make our PCs into toys, and GIVE ME A REAL OS, Microsoft!

Fix the source problem first.
The main problem is overuse of antibiotics - both in the food supply itself, and in every day usage, is breeding resistance to our current antibiotics. Combined with people going off meds before the antiobiotic regime is completed.
Discovering "new" antibiotics won't make that problem go away.
Fix the source of the problem not the symptom.

If politicians are considered people, chimps certainly would qualify.
See, you start with a fallacy, the concept that politicians are people, and use that to "prove" that chimps are people.
Since politicians aren't people, this will never fly.
Seems to me all a chimpanzee needs to do is incorporate, and then they'd be a legal person, just as corporations are people.
Unless ... corporations aren't people?
Read. The. Article. That. You. Are. Replying. To.
Translation: Yes, you do have to pay. Says SCOTUS. There are no appeals.
Actually, no, VAT is collected at multiple points, by the producer/importer, the wholesaler, and the retailer. To avoid VAT avoidance.
At least in most countries.
Wrong. They have to collect sales taxes that apply. Washington State has a sales tax.
Mark my words.
You should look at the actual Request For Proposal for the entire scheme, it's part of it.
Just a note, the UK is also going after tax avoiding, not just Italy, and the same goes for the US.
If you sold something, you pay taxes.
Nuff said.
Best if you hack your neighbor and order it with his credit card.
A wire guide will take down a drone fairly quickly.
I for one welcome our future Sky Thieves (TM) who will pirate packages from Prime Air and use them to fuel their Zeppelin based future society.
Why would you assume they don't?
The first rule of hack club is assume everyone leaves lots of doors open and try them all.
Find out if the firmware rev and parts have ports they didn't turn off or enabled bluetooth cell links.
Then find a way to store instructions somewhere.
Maybe a traffic sign has a signal - alter or enhance that.

So that is who stole my gardening tips!
That which is tricksy by nature is tricksy by virtue.
Why not just ignore the whole thing.

If you want tech, Cyber Monday is usually better.
Most of the pirating going on is due to "region-encoding" or attempts to censor works or not distribute them in certain countries.
If that were true, you wouldn't see high levels of downloading of US cable shows, movies, and music in the US.
Which is due to time-censorship, region-censorship, and big music.
I buy my CDs and DVDs from the artists when they perform - then they get half the take instead of 2 cents.

None.
There is no penalty for the NSA to break our own US laws, and all the EU-US treaties or US-Canada treaties signed.
Everyone knows that, especially those of us who have worked in the belly of the beast.
No penalty - none. Nobody is going to jail for breaking the law, except those who tell the truth.
