Stronger than steel is cool and all, but that doesn't necessarily mean "all the same properties of steel". Durability, heat tolerance, reaction to moisture and a host of other things are likely to mean it's not a drop-in replacement for fiberglass/plastic/metal.
More importantly, as a venture capitalist. Are there hats for owls and would they wear them? What kind of hats would they prefer? What is the potential return for an early investor in this new owl hat market?
There is no basis for Netflix to assert that issues relating to playback of any particular video session are attributable solely to Verizon, according to the letter.... The source of the buffering problem faced by Netflix customers is almost certainly not congestion in Verizon's network...
I'm not saying either Netflix or Verizon is right or wrong, but given the greed displayed by many (most?) ISPs, wanting to double-dip from the money trough, I'm presently inclined to side with Netflix.
"You know how motorcycle riders lean into the corners, sometimes even touching their knee to the ground? Mercedes-Benz has developed new technology that replicates that sensation by leaning the car into bends.
How am I suppose to get my knee on the ground from inside the car? Geesh.
The drivers were asked to do three things: Navigate home, find a pizza shop and find a radio station.
I can do all these things *now* w/o any fancy crap. The radio in my Civic is dead simple to use, and I know where I live and how I got where ever I am now because I drove there. I also know where my local pizza shops are and don't generally go about look for random ones.
I guess Nav systems may be great for traveling and when one is *really* new in town, but other than that, I'm not convinced.
Or they could just fill it up with the "amazing, mileage extending super water" which would be sure to hit the shelves soon after these batteries are released.
They coordinate with relevant authorities to insure they don't zap sensitive optics on satellites and post "plane spotters" outside so they can shut down the laser if a plane comes too close to the beam.
The Secret Service is particularly concerned with such threats, and is in fact charged with keeping tabs on everyone who has ever threatened the president.
Something these companies are all too aware of since the Bush presidency.
For reasons known only to them, they wanted phones, tablets, notebooks and desktops to all use the same interface. Since a start menu doesn't work well on a phone, they opted to remove it.
QM is one of those things I never get around to fully grasping because 1) I use my time for learning many other things that more directly apply to my life, and 2) I have attempted to understand it and just don't get it.
That's the thing. You can (a) understand QM or (b) try to learn more about QM, but one precludes the other.
Again with the assumptions about me - sigh. I haven't "bought into" anything, I just stated - yes, perhaps overstated - a followup comment to another, poorly worded comment, mainly to be clear about things and illustrate the poor wording of the original. It obviously had some resonance, especially with you, one way or the other.
That said, your post-analysis is over-reaching. Perhaps you're an arrogant, ignorant, small-minded twit or simply retarded because your parents are brother and sister or you were oxygen deprived at birth. Or maybe some women have been mean to you and you're just a whiny little pussy and/or hate women. (Obviously, just guessing.) No matter, you're simply being too pedantic to be reasonable, insightful or interesting. (There are always mirrors around if/when you're interested in any self-reflection.)
You can ask the GP himself if he thinks that marrying someone gives you a legal right to her body, and I would take pretty much any wager you want that his answer is a puzzled look and some variation of "what are you, retarded?"
Stating incredibly obvious facts is an insult, because by doing so you doubt that the other side knows about it.
So you assume everyone on/. is on the same page... Furthermore, there are other, clearer, ways the GP could have written his remark.
That you need to reassert yourself on this speaks volumes.
I was happily married to a woman 19 years older than I for 20 years, before she died - literally in my arms - of a brain tumor in 2006, and I haven't dated anyone since. My volumes are fine. The fact that you're willing, nay eager, to make assumptions about me and put words into my mouth says more about you. The mirror is in your bathroom, friend; check it out.
In addition, streaming from, say, Amazon only provides the movie itself, not any "extras" - and, for example, I enjoyed the extras for Gravity (on Bluray) a lot. Do other streaming sources, like Netflix provide more? In addition, the experience / bit rate is limited by the available bandwidth and any transient events (I had a streaming movie from Amazon pause on me for about 30 seconds 3/4 the way through the movie last night)
Using the current state of Ink Jet printing costs as a benchmark, I'm sure the cost of the cartridges will *far* surpass the cost of the printer any mission to send them to another planet. It will probably be cheaper to simply buy enough humans to make the trip and keep them in storage to use as-needed.
Seriously? Someone said, "it's not safe to assume consent won't get revoked, unless you 'put a ring on that finger'," and I *my* reply, asserting that a person always has the right of consent, ring not withstanding, was misandric? It's simply a *fact* (or at least it should be). Are you a partial or complete moron? (and, yes, those are your only two choices)

Mine was a general comment on outside / out-of-state influence on state elections, not Brat vs. Cantor specifically.
Correct. Allowing outsiders to inject themselves as spoilers into an internal race isn't fair.
The Koch brothers (and others), many out-of-state- Super-PACs and their advertising campaigns would beg to differ with your opinion.

"Do owls exist?"
"Are there hats?"

Was this named by a five year old?
Probably, and that "OMGP0n1es" was taken.
the free fast-charging stations designed to quickly refuel Tesla's electric cars
Sure, if electrons are "fuel".
Indeed. I just renewed my Schedules Direct account for my MythTV system using Amazon Payments.
I am 200m above sea level.
Are you?
The Dead Sea, yes.

You seem to be assuming that everyone has the same experience you do, and especially the spatial intelligence that you have.
They have these papery things called "maps" and people have this thing called "memory".
It is a lot simpler to exclude every other person on the planet from your considerations, but it just makes you look like a douchebag.
Or devices like this are the gateway to Idiocracy.

Buy drones instead. They are rapidly making aircraft obsolete.
Unless "these are not the drone you're looking for", they're also aircraft. Just sayin' ...

Thanks!
