A stillsuit in the middle of the ocean would be idiotic. Why capture a thimbleful of salty, oily sweat when there is an unlimited supply of seawater around you? Even if it is more saline, there's actually enough of it to be of use. Aside from hand cranked purifiers, there are solar powered, and gravity powered units. There are probably even wind and wave powered. I saw a unit on a science show back in the 1970s that looked like an inner tube with a clear plastic cone attached to it. You inflated it, set it afloat, and the sun did all the work. Heck, a properly designed life raft can be its own desalinator.
Cables are nautical units. You go 600 nautical miles out in a horseless carriage, you're likely to be going several cables down as well. Hogsheads of what, by the way? Different liquids have different hogsheads. This is why the rest of us switched. A length is a length, a volume is a volume, and a mass is a mass. It shouldn't matter what you're measuring.
Your pedantry is misplaced. You could say that something is 0.6 centuries old. That doesn't make it centuries old, or even a century old. "Centuries old" when used without a quantifier implies many centuries (some would argue even more than two). When used with a quantifier, like 1.9 or 0.6, it becomes more of a scientific measurement and less of a "poetic" measurement. It's two different contexts.
I have a watch it now for every single one. I don't know what your problem is.
Too rich. Too good looking. Supermodel girlfriends fighting over me. Don't live in a cultural backwater that still uses feet and inches. I've got problems out the wazoo.
Sorry, the only one I can give you is the Gold Rush one (although, the titles I listed were all getting older, so why you'd jump on a not yet released movie is beyond me). IMDb does not have a direct link to watch it now (but you can add it to a watch later list). There is a direct link to watch a trailer, and a link to purchase from Amazon, but nothing about rental.
Gold Rush came out in 1925, and IMDb is not a website for a particular movie, and IMDb's watch list may let you watch the movie, but it doesn't tell you where you can rent it. So wrong on all three points, Motard!
The device is called a Peltier device because it is most used that way. Whatever it is called, it uses the Peltier effect to generate a heat differential from electricity, and The Seebeck effect to generate electricity from a heat differential.
If you want to rent a particular movie, that particular movie has a website which almost certainly tells you where it is available.
Tell me, oh great one, where is the website for The Green Mile? For Jaws? For Singing in the Rain? For Gold Rush? I honestly doubt that there is a single movie website anywhere that tells you where it is available for rent.
It's okay if not, thanks to the unique way the BBC is funded they'll no doubt be repeating it on Dave-5*+1 at the same time every night for a month before moving on to the next episode.
Just because some people are taking things out of context and twisting them into pro-homosexual innuendo, does not mean that that's what was meant. Sometimes gay and queer simply mean cheerful and strange.
I think you are confusing Catholicism with something else. The Catholic Church does not profess the need for a middleman or intermediary and never has.
Of course it does. The whole clergy is the middlemen. You confess to the priest, and the priest absolves you. Rubbish. The bible says that christians themselves are the priests, and that we are to confess our sins to each other.
... especially when hundreds of dollars a year will more than pay for a new hard drive or two each year, each of which has more than enough capacity to store my data.

It's simple. They don't have to turn over encryption keys to the NSA because that's where they got them in the first place.

Considering the Seebek effect was only discovered in 1821, the idea is not centuries old.

Guess you better ask a mental defective to explain the difference to you.
Good site is the FBI.
Grin!

The BBC wiped their tapes. They don't have the old episodes anymore.
That's electromagnetic levitation, not sonic.

Hah. I watched it when it was first broadcast.
Did you tape it by any chance? I'm missing a few episodes.
That was an accident. As I recall, they left him locked in the closet.

You want an edit function? Slashcode is open source. Write one, or have one written.
Maybe it's a gas giant that is absorbing blue when it passes in front of the star.
It is not tricky. Just think about how you pronounce the word "fruit".
Oh great! Now I'm thinking about how I pronounce fruit. Is it "froot", or is it "froo-ih-t" where the "ih" is very short, barely detectible.
"froot" or "froo-ih-t"?
"froot"
"froo-ih-t"
"froot"
"froo-ih-t"
Oh great, now I've said it so much its just a noise, and I've lost the meaning.

He reminded me somewhat of those stories you hear about Abraham Lincoln and how surprisingly strong he was.
You have to be strong to hunt vampires.

It sounds like Dropbox are spruiking for more VC funding by cobbling together more buzzwords.
