Appolo was done in the days when robots were nearly usless. They aren't now. And even then it was like 90% show-off, 10% science (not that other human flights starting from very first one were any different). Best engineers can spend those billions much better by building and launching unmanned space probes and space telescopes.
You do understand why we want to go to Mars? Good for you. I don't. Robots are so much better for any kind of space mission (except for space lifeboats, but we're centuries away from that), that sending humans anywhere seems downright silly.
I'm a Call of Duty addict. I play about 5 hours a day. I've lost my job and my gf.
Please, help me! Meet me at the second floor of Pavlov's house (on funfighters server), near the HQ.
IMHO there's no point in using Earth for gravity assist when you're going to Mars. You need to travel somewhere else, use gravity assist there, go back to Earth, use gravity assist here, and then go to Mars. Direct route seems so much better...
That's a stupid denial. People who die for Islam are more moslem than anyone else on this planet. They shape the Islam we'll know for the next decades. By today's standards early christians were plain sickos - that doesn't make them non-christians. Medieval christians did a bunch of unpleasant and gory things, but they were more devoted christians than Mother Theresa has been. Religious cult is not math, you don't prove in an unrefutable way that you belong to it, you just declare it.
Basque and northen Irish terrorists are very Basque and Irish, respectively; they, and not pacifists shape the nation today (I don't think others are happy about it, so I expect personal attacks if anyone interested in those conflicts happens to read this post) . And animal right extrimists are trying to occupy a similar spot - to be an enviromental movement as we (will) know it. If they'll grow in numbers and cruelity, they well be, despite all those students, college professors and housewives that entertain us with their attempts to save nature without even remotely understanding what nature is.
Depends on where you live, I guess. I don't know much about mod chips, but I know some places where I can buy consoles with modchips installed (chipped, in local lingo), and that's enough. Custom storage device imho is the only solution. Or you can try online protection, but you need to move game logic to the server (horror!), not just some silly key validation. And no, content downloading doesn't work - what's downloaded is local.
How the hell has this post got moderated insightful? These examples are about power that gives money, not vice versa. Vast amount of wealth are being passed to people who contribute nothing via welfare. That's gazillions of bums instead of few.

Does Portable Music Have to be Compressed?
Yes
Thanks to zakat terrorists can afford descent notebooks...
Uhm, sorry. Employees indeed.
Source control is a must. And a hitting lazy employers with a big stick also helps.
May be those people pay attention to what the other side is saying? May be they think it's even worse?
Xenophobia is a significant problem of any place where humans(or animals) live. It's basically an instinct.
Don't both calorie restriction and body cooling slow down metabolism? I'm just curious...
The problem is not the lack of laptops. The problem is the abundance of warlords.
They're essentially declaring sovereignity over somene's else virtual world. Sort of like taxing all the satellites that fly over Australia.
Aphex Twin already holds copyright for all kinds of noises.
There aren't any Egyptians anymore. There are Arabs living in Egypt. And they haven't built any pyramids. Not exactly a coincidence, if you ask me.

I'd love to have the data they collected grouped by race. The more detailed racial subdivison, the better...
Mars is a dead planet

Well, even a bad analogy can be useful sometimes. You can't abolish world hunger, really.

Quick! Someone say to New Horizons probe - we don't need to visit Pluto anymore! Oh, too late...

Oh really? So no one is against the death tax, right?
The best won't be considered criminals at all. Perfect crimes, my friend...
