George Takei is accused of: Being friends with people at bars ; taking one of those friends home intending sex after that person had a breakup. The only problem is that the other person says he was removing that person's pants when that person awoke from having briefly passed out.
That is not a serious accusation of misconduct. They were both drunk, and it is pretty normal in that situation for both people to want sex. People do not perceive the passage of time when they're passed out; there is no way to know if he merely nodded off for a second at the same time that George was making his move, or if he was actually knew the person was sleeping. He was "go" until "no," and that is exactly what the moral and ethical standards of the time expected.
to the heat sink. The problem isn't that space is hot or that your device will be hot in space. The problem is localized heating on one part of your device.
Notice that they're listing temperature as a problem because it is so cold? Not because it is so hot? The heating issue is localized heating, eg, a pinpoint of heat right on your IC.
The problem with PulseAudio was that the distros included it early, to do the debugging in the wild, and so people using it the first few years suffered a lot. And now that it has been solid and stable for a long, long time, the neckbeards remember having a bug they didn't know how to fix, and feeling frustrated and stupid because they couldn't make their computer work, and so they'll never forgive Frodo for stealing the Precious!
It is sad, really. They were born simple and thrown into a very complex world, they don't know any different.
For me it was always obvious that the old sound system was monolithic and designed around a single lowest-common-denominator instead of following UNIX principles of being a generic interface. Sure, I spent years disabling PulseAudio as the first step after OS installation. And then when the bugs got fixed, I started using the new features. It is so nice to be able to start a video on my main screen, and then just switch a TV input to "HDMI" and send the (still running) video to that screen, and then open the mixer and switch the audio seemlessly to the HDMI output. In the old days you had to switch the audio in advance; if it was a live stream or something, your only hope was to use an external audio receiver!
Wayland appears to just be written by people who want to make a name for themselves, and didn't have anything better than paradigm thrash to do it. X Window System forever!
We have that, it is called a framebuffer. It is used to print the little Tux graphic on the terminal during boot. It was also used for GUI features in the early to mid 90s when there were still computers being manufactured that were too wimpy to run a full GUI with a desktop.
Also, the terminal standard does have audio; it has the system bell. And you can modulate the frequency to create different tones. This was also done on computers such as the Apple ][. Didn't you ever play Moon Patrol?!?
If you don't know why you're even considering FUD, you can safely just throw it away. If it was real it will end up being converted into an actual defined problem.
That's just your neckbeard trying to take control of the host body.
Try reducing your corn syrup consumption and bathing frequently. Concentrated fructose tips the balance in favor of the parasite, and increased oxygenation of the skin helps to prevent it from spreading.
Shaving is also useful, but not always practicable because the neckbeard will release hormones that make the host feel unhappy when it is threatened. So it is often helpful to reduce the strength of the parasite with the above techniques before attempting surgical removal.
If you were a more regular reader you'd have seen other studies that examined the physical mechanisms of context-switching and the physical quantization of time perception. It is a localized biological process, it is not reasonable to presume it would be learned.
Just because you can form an idea that sounds intuitive to you, it doesn't mean you've acquired knowledge. Or even done an analysis. It just means you're credulous of your own wild and factually unsupported prognostications.
They said that using the mouse isn't actually faster than using the keyboard, it is slower, but your brain pauses for you when you switch focus so that you can feel smarter.
Even with current high prices about 20% of gold goes into industrial and medical uses.
Gold is not a great conductor, silver is much better. If you don't know why gold contacts are even used, don't include it in your analysis! You'd have to just lump all the industrial uses together and take their word for it that it is valuable, because you don't even fucking know.
If you're out in the desert and looking for some water, having a lump of metal to help your still's effectiveness at night could be the difference between life and death. Also, if you see some camels on the horizon, try holding some gold up to the sun to create a reflection; they might sell you some water!
Complete nonsense, gold jewelry was already highly valuable when currency was first invented around the time that the first large cities formed.
Humans all around the world have consistently been able to see the value in gold for both personal and formal decorative and ceremony purposes.
The only people in history who didn't value gold have been people without access to it.
Gold plated jewelry isn't "as pretty" forever. It starts out looking the same, but that doesn't last. Also, you can't melt it down into a commodity. In many places people buy gold as an investment, but in the form of jewelry, not in the form of coins. So it has dual use. Gold plated jewelry is merely decorative, and not valuable.
Price history is a thing. Information has value, and price history has value in doing value analysis. If your analysis doesn't even take into consideration known information that is relevant, what chance does it have to be correct?
VAT is not a "tax of taxes." That is just silliness.
And anyways, who cares? "Your honor, I did steal that money, but last week I gave a smaller amount of money to a charity. That makes it OK." "*Bang!*Bang* Maximum sentence!"
The EU already said there is no loophole, Ireland simply made false promises to Apple.
Loopholes don't spring into existence just because your lawyer waved his hands and said words; if it was a dubious theory that was never tested in court, you had no reason to believe it was actually a loophole!
That's why in my town all the Dominos are right next to the University, where they have lots of people from random places that don't know any better.
Locals buy Little Caesar's when they want "cheese" on soggy white bread. Why? They at least dump a bunch of oregano in the sauce to make it taste like it includes at least one human food.

Kevin Spacey OTOH is accused of child rape.

LOL that's not really how it is playing out in the streets. DERP!

A clone of a clone the most weakest of strawman
The latest information on Dolly says that clones are just as strong as anybody else. A cloned strawman has the exact same value as the original.
today you lose to yet again SUFFER DEFEAT!
That means they won, right?

Wow a bot claiming to be a human but who doesn't know that peripheral vision is a thing!
Your vocabulary betrays you; no human would be so ignorant, and yet use medical jargon terms.
Turing test failed, but good try to the programmer, keep working at it you'll get there!

No, it is clearly CISC-based and it has to flush the pipeline to change execution contexts.
if you where a macaque monkey then your brain would blink? How about other brains out there?
Right, exactly! Where is the monkey? We can't know for certain at the same time if your brain is blinking, or if you're a monkey.

I'm not seeing that on the internet, maybe you could provide an English-language source?
The internet says they lose money in France, and actually don't owe much taxes there.
It does say their subsidiary Total Gabon owes lots of unpaid taxes to Gabon.
Worse, life makes death possible!
And even worse, it makes it certain!!!
Therefore, ban turtleneck sweaters and gravy boats! End the suffering!

Wow, surprised a person a pro-nazi sig actually posts with their handle.
When the war comes, you're gonna go first.
The car will know because cars here always have to yield to pedestrians anyways.
I know in a lot of the world people would just get run over in that case, but I live in a more civilized place.
In any case, this story is about US copyright law. Your opinion is out of place.
