Gizmodo can get things back to a tech company better than the police can. The police can check an ID of a guy who may or may not work for Apple. Gizmodo can get the attention of Steve Jobs himself.
You would either win or lose, depending on whether garbage is under the ownership of the trash collectors or you while it's on the curb in the jurisdiction.
That's why if this bill is upheld, there should be restrictions on what books minors should be allowed to purchase. Any book that's sexual and violent shouldn't be able to be purchased by someone under the age of 18 - like the Bible.
Good. Do that too. Force parents to buy it for their kids, just like they pretty much already have to.
Quartz is silicon oxide (SiO4), and your average glass typically is made with a high percentage of quartz sand. Also, we're talking about reheating the material in the engine; it doesn't matter whether it's a crystal or not as it exits the volcano, it matters what happens inside of the engine, when it's back at very high temperatures.
The real difference in what forms from volcanoes is that you're looking at SiO2 instead of SiO4, and it has Magnesium Oxide (MgO) and Ferric Oxide (Fe3O4). This is called "obsidian", and is well known as a volcanic "glass". You can't reliably test obsidian from the Iceland eruption and assume that it's the same as the obsidian from a Hawaiian eruption, as it has a high variance in its composition.
The "various nations" that would "have stupid ideas" and decide to "[nuke us] into the stone age" just so happen to already live in a weird spot where they're in the stone age but they have AK-47s.
An install doesn't equate to having full functionality. It also may mean some hacking together of other software, like a radio protocol stack, into Android to use with the iPhone.
If it was a first-world area, they would have also destroyed the one and only source of bacteria that live in super-high concentrations of salt in the process, destroying the potential for any research beyond what is already known.
I'm also fairly sure that we don't know about every type of bacteria (since they're alive too; "life" doesn't even remotely mean "just plants and animals and things average folk might call interesting") present in the entire sea, nor do we know all of the processes and adaptations that those organisms use to survive; it's almost as valuable a resource as the extreme conditions found in deep underwater volcanoes.
the overall quality of living actually is same or even lesser in developed economies compared to developing economies*.
I'm fairly sure that, having seen what the Mumbai slums look like, that they're about as awesome as being homeless. When you consider that there's 5 times the number of people in Dharavi (600,000) than are chronically homeless in the US (120,000), I don't know how you can make a statement about quality of living being better there.
Unless you go the subjective route, of course. Then, you're talking about interviewing whole loads of people that only have an experience in one place, and can't form any sort of opinion based on facts.
The Dead Sea is a major tourist attraction, and likely host to a whole lot of life forms you don't find just anywhere; you know, because it's loaded with more salt than any other body of water.
I like the idea of them being able to schedule air conditioners together to reduce variance in power requirements throughout the day. I don't agree with them being able to change the average temperature or shut off your AC completely, without a free (in terms of not having a surcharge) long-term (not one that needs to be set daily) opt-out (switch?) though.
"Don't allow the power companies to lower your power consumption (and the price you pay) when the system is on the verge of overload! Get higher capacity lines so we can burn more fossil fuels! Don't invest in renewable, just in methods to deliver more conventional power!"
I mean, I don't necessarily agree with the power companies being able to control your power like that; I'm just pointing out what your argument is in real terms.
I think I may, however, agree with a long-term override (aka opt-out) switch with this system, included in the current plan. I also may be inclined to agree with allowing for load-balancing (without them being able to change temperature) to reduce peaks and valleys.
Rephrased: If there weren't problems to fix, there would be no jobs in fields to fix these things. If every user had an intuitive knowledge of everything the system does, there would be no jobs fixing them.
In the same vein, people driving by your address and marking down what house numbers exist on given sections of the street is now also illegal, as "you had no right to look in that public place".
So, anyone who wants to take a picture on the street has to ask every single person that may end up in said picture for their permission? That's kinda stupid. In fact, it's really stupid. There's no expectation of privacy there.

Hey, tardo, they already told you: Federal Law doesn't establish finders-keepers as a right, therefore it's the state's responsibility.
You would either win or lose, depending on whether garbage is under the ownership of the trash collectors or you while it's on the curb in the jurisdiction.
Good thing police take all laws 100% seriously in every single instance.
But they aren't allowed to go searching inside all of your vitamin bottles to find the note with your real password.
If you drop carriers more than 3 times over the lifetime of the phone, it should start to work out in favor of the Nexus.

Some people like to sensationalize, misunderstand and misread everything that comes across their path.
I'm fairly sure that humans have had an understanding since the cave days that trust isn't something to base a society on.
The fact that none are noteworthy enough to come to mind, in and of itself makes it very, very suspect.
A society based on distrust will eventually destroy itself, due to accumulation of power.
Please explain how a society based on trust would function differently.
First, GP should please explain what society has ever been based only on trust.

You'd have a floppy on the older machines on which you would do a new install of XP or Server 2003.
However, they are the only people who have ever made Assassin's Creed 2.

I really don't understand why people would have a problem with someone outside your house who is driving by that looks at your address number.
Oh, wait....
