Younger generations now embrace the method of lowering the temperature by butting ice packs... one difference is the ice pack method instantly reduces the pain associated with fever/flu.
Fever/flu has never induced pain in that region for me.
If you never read it back, you have no clue if you've written it properly. Thus you have no idea if renting that safe deposit box is a waste of money or a wise investment.
Do a bare metal restore on a cold system every once in a while.
If I were in charge of the reboot, I would have had one time travel episode: The Pilot. Instead of [shudder]Red Matter, Ambassador Spock, on Romulus promoting unification, gets sick (perhaps Bendii syndrome like his father), and during a mind link winds up revealing the secret of the Guardian of Forever to the bad guys. They use it to bring modern weapons tech and bring about the Federation/Romulan war. Earth loses. Spock (Nimoy) goes back to try to correct it, get's it mostly right, but dies in the process.
I can just imagine the Marlin Perkins narration about how they travel in great herds along well marked routes, and how they spend most of the day huddled together for protection. Watch out Jim!
At risk: my other computer equipment and embedded devices.
Take a look at shodanhq.com, then perform the following steps.
1) Hack my Internet-accessible thermostat. You now have a conduit onto my home network.
2) Use the thermostat to attack the other devices in my house, or for that matter anything on the Internet. This has already been done (http://internetcensus2012.bitbucket.org/paper.html).
3) Do whatever you like. Steal information you consider interesting, sell access to any systems you compromise, or whatever. purpose. you. choose.
Moral: don't assume that the value of access to your devices is based solely on their *intended* use, or that your equipment will be compromised solely based on how interesting a target *you* are.
Want to sell a wifi-enabled thermostat? I still don't think it's a good idea at this time, but go ahead. Just ensure that the default settings have the radio turned off, and that I can leave it disabled forever. Yes, most people will still make bad choices based on convenience plus ignorance of the cost and risk. But it's a start.

I think we'd be much better off for both space travel and undersea exploration to develop a robust and energy efficient method of cracking CO2 back into carbon and oxygen.
I would imagine a subsea station would be using electrolysis rather than an artificial gill system. That way, you're not dependent on the quantity of dissolved oxygen in the surrounding water.
No, there is always 16 ounces in a pound regardless of what you are "weighing" (measuring the mass of). Perhaps you've conflated ounce with fluid ounce -- a distinct, though confusingly named, unit.
And yes, a mile is 5280 ft = 63360 inches. I don't know where you pulled "3mm shy of" from but if you're measuring in miles and worrying about being 3mm shy, you're doing it wrong.
BZZZT! Wrong. Gold, silver, and other precious metals are measured in Troy ounces, which are slightly heavier than regular ounces. Oddly, Troy pounds only have 12 Troy ounces in them. Thus, an ounce of gold is heavier than an ounce of lead, but a pound of gold is lighter than a pound of lead.
Similarly, long distances are measured in statute (or survey) miles, which are based on a longer standard than customary measures. The volume of a hogshead is different between ale and beer.
But thanks for correcting me. Not even Americans know their own system.
Only Americans understand the US measures. How many ounces in a pound? Well, it depends on what you're weighing. 63360 inches is about 3mm shy of a mile? Okay, if you say so. I'll stick to metric, thanks.

Never read a "choose your own adventure" did you?
Your choice to not see things doesn't trump my right to see what I find acceptable.
It does if I'm the government and Allah has given the Most Holy and Sacred Duty of ensuring the Purity and Righteousness of the people.

For the Acronym Impared: NEET= Not in Education, Employment, or Training. ie: a young person who is out of school and jobless.
Yes, for those comments that are bolder than bold!
On the other hand, an internet connected, digital thermostat isn't exactly a novel idea.

This rock could have been clattering around in the rover's hollow wheels for a long time, and just recently fallen out.
Wouldn't surprise me if there were more ATMS than Windows mobiles.
Banks wouldn't sue in a case like this. Banks would go to the government for a bailout.

... and how many PS3 games can your raspberry pi play?
This is the corporate equivalent of shouting "fire" in a crowded theater.You really need to be sure that you are right before shouting.
I see. You have to shout "Ready" and "Aim" first.
...Until you add up the energy costs for a few years of running a desktop computer vs. a Pi...
... which is irrelevant since he'd still be running the old hardware anyway, but now with a Raspberry on top of it.
