You got that right... Ever try not initiating conversations on dating sites (as a male)? I've received one message over the past 5-7 years of having various profiles and I don't consider myself an ugly person or undesirable in any way. Women simply don't initiate conversations online. Just like in the "real" world men have to be the ones to stick their neck out.
Unless it's not... What if one side works part time and expects a full time lifestyle? I've met more than a fair share of couples where one person is beholden to the whims of the other's need for material goods.
The difference between Bash and Batch is pretty significant... I grew up on Batch Scripts and when I learned Bash Scripting I was amazed at what one could do.
Why not just have a "home grown" firewall that doesn't allow communication to anything but specific controlled sites? I mean, the data has to go out of the building somewhere and they can control which destinations are acceptable. Even if the someone happened to slip in some code to "spy" on specific data it would have no way outside the network besides that firewall. Unless of course they embed some wireless communication chips in the switches, but that would require that someone in the building have a listening device.
I forget how long I used my parent's home address as my "permanent" address after I left home and went through college. They'd just let me know if there was mail for me.
At that point, you'd have to determine the pounds per square inch of tire to road surface to determine if the impact is all that bad. I imagine the simple massive weight of the larger vehicles is still more detrimental to the pavement. At least, under the current build specs. I've noticed that intersections near trucking facilities tend to develop grooves in the pavement because of the weight. I'm sure that if the engineers had put enough of a concrete base under the road surface that would be less of a problem for the trucks and even less for such a lightweight car that the concrete base probably didn't even realize was there. I'm sure there are cost/benefit evaluations for determining the base depth and they figure that a thin base is just more cost efficient to install even though it may not last as long. I do wonder if those evaluations include the lifetime of the product though. (I know concrete can last for multiple decades in all kinds of weather if it doesn't crack... so I wonder if the road bases just need to be beefed up.)
Let's be honest though... that tiny amount of fuel used for lawn care amounts to pennies of tax a year. I think I might use 2 gallons of gas a year on lawn care and that amounts to couch cushion change compared to what I pay for vehicular travel.
You could logistically calculate if a truck passed through a state if you knew it filled up in PA and then again in IL. Ohio is a hard target to miss. Unfortunately, that would mean serializing all your filling and driving habits and could be a big fat privacy violation.
I'd be willing to bet that the trucks would be paying the lion's share of the tax if it were a mileage tax. UPS/FedEx/(any moving company) would end up paying an egregious amount of road tax and shipping costs would go up. Interestingly, this may be seen as anti-competitive since the USPS probably doesn't pay tax on fuel (do they?)
The DOD GS600 (the one the op uses) supports all that. I have one as well. I just get in the car and leave it plugged in. when it gets power it automatically starts recording to the SD Card and when it's out of space it will delete the oldest.
Both my friend and I bought the DOD GS600... one came with a bum controller, but we had the other one to use for setting it up. They've been reliable with very few lost videos (if it's in the middle of a 1 minute block and you shut off the car it may lose that clip.) Interestingly enough, we've had better luck using 5 minute blocks of video.
We got it because it claimed 1080p video. We've mainly been using it in 720p because it looks about the same (ie: you can't read plates unless you are right up on the person even in 1080 mode) and you can record longer without having to reformat/clear the card.
Video wise and dependability? It's not bad. It's good for CYA and a few laughs at morons doing stupid things. I've considered it well worth the cost of the unit and I don't know if there's anything else out there that would give (better) real good clear video without paying for it.
I've left mine in the front window 24/7 (garaged at home, open parking lot at work) without any issues in regards to the sun beating down on it all day.
I kind of wish that there was a recess in the back of the TV or more "behind the screen" PCs that mount on the VESA pins (or between if you wall mount it) that had a simple 12v power supply and HDMI port. This way you can buy "smart" modules or a PC that mounts on the back of the set to give you the "smart" feature set. Leave the TV up to the task of getting and displaying a signal to the best of it's ability (like you said.) If you ever need to update the "smart" part of the TV, you wouldn't have to replace the whole set. I have a 1080p monitor in my living room that has lasted far longer than the media PC I have connected to it.
It's worded funny. I don't think there's a dollar amount applied to the Israel rollout. Just "The project will cost billions of shekels to deploy some 25,000 kilometers of fiber optics"
I use Gnome 3 on a daily basis. Most of it makes sense and while it launches apps fullscreen by default, it doesn't restrict me from putting my apps at 50% screen. I just drag the app to the side and I get a nice little context that says the window will be resized to 50% width. In Windows 8 Metro it makes it something like 20% and there's no option to split the screen 50%.
Now, admittedly, I have a few extensions on Gnome 3 to make some minor tweaks which probably should be options to Gnome itself (rather than an extension) but adding extensions is a simple as going to a webpage and turning on a switch and if you want to tweak settings with an extension, right click on the activities or the extension icon.
My biggest complaint with Gnome 3 is the inability to favorite any app so it shows up on the quick launcher on the left side of the screen. (Only apps with shortcut launcher files created will allow you to favorite them.)

Currently, the only cities with high speed fiber connectivity include Chenggong, Zhengzhou, and even Nova Cidade de Kilamba, in Africa.
I'm not sure how it can be tiring... there's nothing you have to do on your end. The updates automatically happen.

Ubuntu Software Center doesn't use APT? That would be kind of dumb...

I'd love to have a nice multi-touch (smart, so it's not detecting my elbows as touches) drafting table style computer
It's not Windows 8 I'm concerned with... it's forcing Sharepoint on the Military...
Some pan handlers actually make some serious dough. There was a recent article about a guy making $60k/year: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/07/23/shane-warren-speegle-says_n_1694577.html and according to studies, panhandling can net hundreds per day: http://www.straightdope.com/columns/read/2255/how-much-money-do-beggars-make but most of those panhandlers will spend the money they get and not beg again until they run out.

Maybe it's time? Or simply raise property tax since the majority of the roads will be used by the residents.

One could also assume that a simple bump in sales tax could also cover road travel since people would be driving to the store to buy that item.

I had problems with it recording sometimes as well, but then I got a Class 10 SD card and have had a 99% capture rate.

Sorry to repost, but I just did a Google conversion: 1,000,000,000 Israeli New Sheqel equals 268,190,000 US Dollars
