Would you really want to chance it though? Engines only restart if you're lucky enough to have the molten ash on the compressor blades and in the compression chamber cool fast enough to solidify and break off while still having battery or generator power as you glide powerless. Also, with the price tag of upwards of $80 million to overhaul the engines after the damage, I think most airline insurers aren't going to take kindly for willfully flying near the volcanic ash cloud/plume.
If ash from volcanoes can take out four engines, there is no way in hell I want to get near that ash cloud/plume in a two engine transatlantic aircraft.
If open source is the future, and hardware can be made dirt cheap anywhere on the planet, how is anyone going to make any money? Service? Not when there are 7 billion people on the planet. There'll be plenty more work than people available.
Don't worry so much about world population. As countries convert from third-world to first-world countries, birth rates plummet. You just have to worry about the damage caused by their conversion/advancement.
I pay credit for everything I can. Absolutely everything. I have no shame whipping out a credit card for a $3 purchase if the merchant will accept it. Why should I care?
Because those fees get passed along to you as higher prices for the goods/services you're purchasing. You think merchants are going to eat the cost? Hell no. It's built into the price.
I agree Netflix should've had more of a backbone, but in return they get the right to move more content to their streaming service (always a nice thing). My thoughts are, "So what if I can't watch it in the first 30 days? It's in my saved queue and will get dumped into my normal queue at some point." I'd argue things will be business as usual instead of folks running out to buy DVDs during the embargo window (or they'll just pirate them).
I've got 146 movies in my Watch It Now queue. It'll be a *long* time till I use my 3 out at a time discs (although the wife uses them most of the time).
Then the government might as well do it all in house so that no profit has to be made and given to shareholders. No point in wasting tax money to make some investor rich.
Have you ever seen how the government works "in house" on projects? I've seen the DOE flush tens of millions down the drain that a private company would've spent *much* more efficiently. No, the government is best to let a commercial venture handle things, just not cost plus.
+1. I'm not a fan of Elon Musk by any means (although I bought a Tesla Roadster), but buying launches from SpaceX would go a long way towards lowering launch costs.
No one wants to move to secure BGP (which uses PKI to validate route announcements) for a variety of reasons. Google "secure bgp" or "sbgp" to familiarize yourself with the situation.

They're not law. If they want to violate them, that's their concern, not yours.
Until you're sued in civil court for breach of contract (that contract which you most likely signed on your first day at the office).
Dump it into a parking orbit and go get it with something shipped there on a SpaceX launcher. It's not like time is something we don't have.
Intel uses prime95 for testing, so I would say yes, it is comprehensive enough to cover typical CPU operations.
And be prepared for the shit storm that is sure to follow.

Instead of a radiosonde balloon, what about a dirigible? Low speed, with the ability to navigate and take samples from many more altitudes/locations.

If - then what? New routes? Limit cross-atlantic flights endpoints to southern Spain or something?
Yes. The alternative is pretty grim.

Sounds like a major geothermal heat pump project in the making, cooling the bedroom with the surrounding ocean/river water.

Mr. James Duane, a professor at Regent Law School and a former defense attorney, tells you why you should never agree to be interviewed by the police.

" It's the latest way for Hollywood to combat falling DVD sales due to netflix and other cheaper content avenues."
I'm sure they'll get there. Have to have those with deep pockets underwrite your R&D first though.

Right, because 30 days does something to change someone's attitude. Right?

The rule is don't mess with a Federal Judge. If you don't believe me, ask a a lawyer, you might even get the answer for free.
The rule is stay out of their jurisdiction and their reach. The internet is world-wide. US civil enforcement, not so much.
