I'd actually expect the first viable solution would be single car "docks" that run on regular train rail. You'd eliminate all but the acceleration/deceleration issues of each "pod." When the car gets to a predetermined cut-off it could alert the other pods behind it to slow down. The driver would then only have to drive to the local station to dock and from the destination station to work.
Joking aside... I don't think you can fully blame the person who punched. If someone was constantly getting in your way and not letting you get to the restroom (and you punch them) it's not entirely your fault. That person was doing something "anti-social" which in turn encouraged an "anti-social" act on your part. Severity aside, you still encouraged it by not giving way. Now, if someone were driving in the left lane going 5mph under the limit they could be construed as getting in the way.
Either way, it's probably best if they follow the "pass, then move right" rule instead of hanging out in the lane. Let the person go by, let the police enforce the law and don't take it into your own hands.
You can't "fire" them (well, you can, but the process is not easy) but you can refuse to re-elect them. Enough of this and people who think they can ride out the rest of their life in office soon find that they can't.
By having a mass boycott on the voting system, you allow those that don't know about the boycott or don't care about your stance elect someone to have some control over your life. In effect, you are letting your ideas not be heard by not voting.
I have never understood the idea of not voting. The only time someone would not vote (if you ask me) is when they were happy with the state the system was in.
My guess is that they invested to find a material that could be used for energy, but found one that had structural benefit. I don't find it surprising really, advances in science happen across a broad range of fields and uses (ie: Radar -> Kitchen cooking tool)
Sadly, if Minecraft were half the game DF is, I'm afraid that 2012 might be caused by people never leaving home. ( I play around with both [MC alpha owner!], but Minecraft has a way to go to become DF caliber. )
Consider me wrong, the article says it's visible, but it's at a refresh that human eye's cannot detect. Serves me right for not reading either article.;)
It's not really any different than Wifi except that you will probably get a bit more security by direct firing the light. (I assume it's using encryption.)
But infra-red is light that's not normally visible... which makes me wonder if we had a proper capture device to convert radio to visual, could we actually see radio waves like we do with iR? If you put in a fog machine, will that let you see the edges of the broadcast wave?
I somehow doubt these systems use visible light or the headaches and epileptic shock rates will skyrocket from all the blinking.
Actually, as an atheist, I have to disagree with the religion part. I grew up with religious folk who considered it normal to abstain until marriage. Heck, I even dated a girl for a short time who would not even consider it.
Granted, there is an incredible push to get married then pump out kids that you will indoctrinate, but that's not what I was thinking about when I read your post.
And you have a right to pay for it out of your own pocket.;)
Having a Right is not the same as the government paying for you to have that service. Quite literally, your Rights (as written in The Constitution: if you are a citizen) are simply "given" in a way that no law can be written to deny them except under certain circumstances where they are limited (breaking the other laws.)
I'm not sure this has anything to do with the released key. It's netbooting... There's not really enough info in the post to suggest that it does (or does not) have anything to do with the recent hack.
I happen to agree with Rinda... I think her ideas are spot on. They should build a large fence to keep us from going in their oceans and stealing their food supplies.
I still think the CETH (Cetaceans for the Ethical Treatment of Humans) is over the top though not as bad as the suicide swimmers who try to stop the nets.

Didn't say that, but there are certain people who like to push the limits on what they can do to you without retaliation a bit too much.
Because it's not virtual world? /shrug

Damn, you beat me to it.
In which case, you would be the punchee?

Change doesn't happen overnight.
Monster Cable Antennas are oxygen free and therefore the waves do not get distorted? (Not even sure if they make antenna products...)

I hear the Samsung are alright if you can get past the RFS (not Reiser) issue.

The store could have an Internet connection!

The detective said the Walmart video showed Archer in an "unusual vehicle," a GMC "Jimmy" SUV painted "passion purple,"
And here I thought Purple Jimmy was a euphemism. I didn't know someone actually made them.

Sharp also has embedded Linux in their Aquos line. I also thought about this about 2 years ago when I got mine and have since forgotten about it.

I'm sorry, but that's a terrible reason (by itself) to keep someone on payroll...

at least the federal government doesn't have a profit motive for sharing the information it has about me.
Yet.
IA is waaay too close to AI... if you go around stating that, people will start bowing to our underwater overlords.
Apparently some of them have taken up the cause of human protectors (attacking sharks, etc.) while we are at sea. Maybe they figured it out!
