If they have more moon-base space than we do, they could breed more, and possibly take over when they come out. They might even try a quick, sneak attack, so they can take over our moon base space. They might even try to knock over a couple of other countries and take their moon-base space.
Iceland's citizenry turned out by the thousands to protest their PM's refusal to resign after the Panama Papers revealed his corruption.
The Kremlin on the other hand has already called the Panama Papers a CIA plot, (big surprise there). Hopefully, if the Panama Papers do reveal Putin used a shell to hide his money, Russia's citizens will not stand for it and force his hand.
Let's hope other nation's citizens follow suit, including here in the U.S.
Howabout the woman in the article? She has breast cancer. It didn't come from smoking or drinking or doing drugs.
And giving is voluntary. Your point is pointless.
I think CNN or some news site picked the story up yet again after an interview at CES. This is ooooold news. Every year or so, Volvo makes their "no deaths or injuries" car pledge to stir up interest. Here's a 2008 story in Wired about it. Here's one in 2012. Here's one in 2013. I'm sure there's more.
1. There was no way Google was ramping up a manufacturing line. That would have been too risky and costly. It's always been about selling the software IP, just like Microsoft knew the money was in software licensing not the commodity hardware. Vehicles will be defined by software in the future. Expect Apple to jump into this game as well.
2. The pod car (sans steering wheel) Google has been testing would never have been marketed to consumers; it was a service vehicle for the taxi and delivery industries.
3. Autonomous vehicles will mostly be electric and aimed at urban areas where short travel distances don't require exceptionally high-capacity batteries and high-concentrations of pollution can best be targeted for reduction.
It was one of those movies where the audience actually applauded at the end. I thought it was extremely well done -- compelling story, great acting, phenomenal FX. Ridley Scott made a great movie.
The one scene that really shocked and made me question the science behind it was when they used a parachute to cover the open nose cone of a rocket for a space launch from Mars. Is that really possible? Mars has an atmosphere, wouldn't anyone inside the capsule be killed?
FTA: "Five such 'unmanned aircraft systems' prevented California firefighters from dispatching helicopters with water buckets for up to 20 minutes over a wildfire that roared Friday onto a Los Angeles area freeway that leads to Las Vegas."
Yeah, I wouldn't have asked permission before shooting those drones from the sky.
If the planet was emerging from an ice age, meaning there would be variations in temperature, CO2, and dust from the Vostok ice core over the last 400,000 years, couldn't global warming be a natural occurrence, having nothing to do with mankind's addition to CO2 gases from carbon fuels?
That always gets me. At 17, you're old enough to enlist in the military, be issued deadly weapons and get shipped over seas to enforce U.S. foreign policy, which may involve killing lots and lots of people.

Divide that by one charge every day for 365 days and that's 275 years of battery life.
Yes please.

Uber stated last July it was interested in buying every single autonomous car Tesla could build.
Google is now saying they were following the "spirit of the road" when the crash happened and that they've reviewed the incident, as well as thousands of variations on it, in a driving simulator and made refinements to its AV software.
They so often seem to handle society's little problems so much more elegantly than the rest of us.

No. I didn't link back to the same piece. Slashdot autocorrect did. Here are the URL: http://www.wired.com/2008/05/v... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sci... www.am-online.com/news/2013/2/1/volvo-predicts-crash-proof-cars-by-2020-but-uk-drivers-remain-skeptical/32308/

It would be nice if they could go after the scum that has persecuted this family.
FYI. That wasn't HAL.

Audi is owned by Volkswagen and was part of the original compliant against Volkswagen from the EPA.
I just can't seem to find the expected price tag. Whoops. I forgot, if you need to ask the price of a Porsche, you cannot afford it.
Personally, I'm vastly more excited about an affordable Tesla than some horrifically expensive EV Porsche.
I'm really, really trying... hold on, I think I'm starting to care... nope, lost it. Still don't care.

Did Intel co-invent USB 3.1 and Thunderbolt?
After my last airport screening, I'm now fairly confident that I don't have colon cancer.

Medicine has yet to repair a spinal cord injury, but there are people out there who believe some doctor's going to perform a head transplant? Really?
