were photographing human (and other living things) "auras" a long time ago. I'm surprised no one else mentioned it. Really they were just taking photos of high voltage coronas around things, but hey, it was fun!
Hang around in a garage (where they work on cars, not where they park them) or a physics lab and you'll hear it often. Saying "vacuum leak" does not mean that vacuum leaks. By your reasoning, I should not be allowed to say "vacuum pump" either, since you pump the air out, you don't pump the vacuum. Tell me "vacuum pump" is bad English too. Go ahead.
Based on Ohm's law, you'd take the (downstream) current and multiply by the resistance to get the voltage. Since you're dealing with a liquid, you could also divide by the conductivity, known as *roe*.
You laugh but that is exactly what a vacuum leak is. Air or some other gas leaks in and ruins the vacuum. Happens in auto engines causing performance problems there too. In the LHC they need a really good vacuum so that those hadrons can get up to a high speed which they won't do if they collide with gas molecules.
Maybe the purpose of general public screening is NOT to catch terrorists but more for deterrence (terrorists aren't good at statistics either!) and comforting the (uneducated) general public with "we're doing SOMETHING!"

What if I don't want privacy in some legal sense? I want (actual) privacy.
If you put the 1 petabyte on these, then, assuming each one weighs half a gram (probably an overestimate), the weight would be about 72 lbs. It would be a little difficult to organize/search in that form though. If you took the individual 9 stacked chips out of the packages it would weigh much less.
Sounds like bipolar disorder you've got. Just like my (and I assume all) 18 month old daughter. She looks at me and smiles and laughs and then looks back at her mom and remembers she was crying for something a second ago, and goes back to crying.

Pre-menstrual women?
Post-menopausal men?
Hermaphroditic clowns?

Well, that is something up with which I will not put!
Which choice of words? "Vacuum leak" is a common expression.

Maybe make a RECAPTCHA problem out of it. Get more people looking at each image. Works well for digitizing old books.
5 or 6 fonts at a time on a page vs. 5 or 6 fonts to choose from, period. Big difference.
I know when I see a movie with Kurt Russell in it, the question is always, Por qué Kurt Russell?
It is. What made you think it's not, all of a sudden?
Funniest post I've seen in a long time.

Hey, this guy should be curing cancer instead of wasting time on 3D pictures!!

So the question, as suggested by the story headline, is: are you typical, or is the GP typical?
Look, I just came here for an argument...

Funny, sounds like you could have written that 20+ years ago.
Anyway, this is about an internet radio service, let's not restart the analog vs. digital debate here.
Sure, that'll work, but you've got to remove your tinfoil hat first.

Another error that gives it away (like we needed one) is: ice flow (wrong) vs. ice floe (right).
