To be fair, most of those companies you listed develop unmanned communications satellites. Bigelow aerospace is developing a modular habitable space station with no (?) government funding.
No, he's saying there's no point in sending the rover anywhere else because it will die before taking any "new" (i.e. not of the rocky plains) readings.
It would probably smell really bad (worse than conventional exhaust fumes, even) if you didn't use reasonably clean water though. Smell is a rather large component of taste.
Ever tried to clear a blocked loo with boiling water? (I have not but some students I know did. Why didn't they call their plumber apprentice friend?)
Well, our bone density would suffer from the perspective of living on Earth, but it would be fine if you never planned to return and just live on Mars permanently.

Presumably it is easier and cheaper to maintain 10 large windmills than 100 smaller ones. A single large windmill blade/gearbox/(any specific component) does not cost 10 times as much as the respective small windmill part. It costs perhaps 5 times as much.
That said, large windmills cannot be attached to the side of buildings.
That's part of the reason why modern major scientific modeels are called "theories" instead of "laws" now. The original author looks less stupid when his "theory" is disproved than if his "law" is disproved.
The point is that the law would discriminate against videogames, and not regulate the sales of violent movies or other media. So, because the violence was in a videogame instead of a movie, that makes it so much worse it has to have it's own law.
Make a law regulating all violent media, or don't make a law at all. Preferably the latter.
This concept is called sousiveillance ("watching from below" as opposed to surveillance "watching from above"). The general idea is that the people collectively monitor themselves, rather like Wikipedia. It is often advocated by cyborg/wearable PC enthusiasts.
One of the main problems is that politicians are lawyers, rather than scientists, doctors, engineers, social workers, teachers etc. They do not understand what it is that they are governing.
I knew Albert Kyder back in my college years. Nice lad, always had some "special flapjacks" to spare. Then he fell in with that bastard Terry. Never saw him again.
I disagree. There is a place for creationism in schools - in the Religious Education lessons. Here in Britain, Religious Education is compulsory to some degree up to the age of 16. The lessons teach pupils about various religious traditions and histories, treating each religion equally. I've heard this should be instituted in the States because it prompts pupils to examine their own religion in the light that it is "just another religion among many", with nothing making it the Absolute Truth.

Haven't you heard of the evil bit?
They were confiscated.
Done.
Also "Underwater hairdryer" and "A handbrake on a canoe"
Looks like Will Wright has amnesia.

When Linus dies? I think you mean "if".

It makes the calculations simpler.

The trouble is that there is no such thing as universal simultaneity. What clock do we measure by when measuring "before the message was created"?
The new particle accelerators have other uses besides searching for the Higgs Boson; they're not one-shot wonders.
Supreme Commander is primarily CPU-limited, due to all the projectile trajectory and unit AI calculations.

Meet the MX-42 Hail Cannon! It fires apple-sized chucks of ice at 9.7 m/s at a rate of 40 rounds a minute.
Nonsense! The Edsel Citation had 29% more chrome trim, and is therefore more winningester.
