Does an actual summary report exist? I did a bit of Googling but all I could find were links to a geothermal map of the U.S. on the SMU website or as a Google Earth file. I don't need, or want, a map -- I want an analysis of what that data tells us.
A ship's crew is something like 20 people and tend to be third world, employed to reduce salaries. How much would the need of a separate escort vessel run?
There are probably cheaper security solutions, one of which is simply carrying insurance. If the pirating take is sufficient low (they are not going to be stripping a panamax bare) simply ensuring against losses might be reasonable.
I don't doubt that, as Bruce Perens here suggests, there are some problems with the new license language (hey, corporate lawyers wrote it), but I think you take is pretty close to the money.
unfortunately this subtle distinction makes SSPL a non-free license. debian for example will be forced to move mongodb and anything under this SSPL license into the "nonfree" distribution section, thus ensuring that it is excluded from use in all and any debian critical core-level services.
it's a particularly sad state of affairs - a reaction to unethical corporate spongeing - that a major prominent software team has to consider changing the license to a non-free one just to be able to pay their developers to keep working, whilst corporations all around them make hundreds of millions of dollars in profits, using their work??
If true (I'm not convinced it is), maybe Debian (and perhaps the Open Source community generally) should rethink their position on this a little in light of how the world actually works. Learning from reality has its good points.
It would be so much better if you actually read something that he said or wrote than imagine what you think it might be from reading a Slashdot summary.
This is a close parallel to the same argument used in the Nineteenth Century to support slavery. It has been extremely helpful to human society, and the foundation of all great civilizations, and of our civilization in particular, etc..
And the Bible takes the existence of slavery for granted, no where is it stated to be wrong, and indeed there are numerous passages in the Christian Bible that tell slaves to obey their masters.
And throttling problems were seen, and were becoming more prevalent. It is not as if everything was super keen. Net neutrality was introduced to address a real and growing problem.
You are right this is the same guy with backscatter but a different mechanical situation for his 3D-printed backscatter antenna switches. He has got a paper gold mine going here, if he can just keep dreaming up yet another 3D-printed backscatter antenna switch prototype.
There a settlement of a lawsuit, and the lawyers collected routine fees. Since when is the lawyers getting their regular compensation the "story" or even "news"?
The story is that Vizio was spying on users and paid a settlement as a result, but one that was trivial compared to the magnitude of the violation.
In the same sense that we are talking about "water powered space ships" we do have water powered cars. The Toyota Mirai Hydrogen Fuel Cell Vehicle is for sale right now. Hydrogen can be made by splitting water, and that is what they are talking about for fueling rockets on the Moon.
You mean it is really strange how hard it is to type in "how is a vaccine made" in Google? I did and the first article listed described seven different methods in use for different types of vaccines. Google. Try it some time.
Or to consult a site that actually discusses genuine epidemiology, you find that there is no evidence of an elevated risk of death from the vaccine at all. As in - not even a tiny bit.
The anti-vax site the Coward links to simply cites raw reports. People die sometimes, lots of reasons. Lots of people get vaccinated. They also do lots of other things for the first time. Some of these people will later die, lots of reasons. That does not mean the vaccination, of any of the other first time things they did, contributed to their death. You do controlled studies to tell the difference.
... Cancer treatments rarely improve quality of health and they typically costs hundreds of thousands of dollars.
People who are live many years after successful cancer treatment would disagree about your dismissal of their years of life. In 1950 the 5 year survival rate of someone with a cancer diagnosis was 35%, now it is 70%. But you might have a bit of a point about the high cost of many cancer treatments.
There is no moral or fiscal reason to cure or prevent cancer.
Which is why your screed against preventing cancer is such a grotesque logical fail.
Thats the thing though. These people are all about punishing women.
Think about all the arguments used for abortion.
You left out the most telling point. The people who are wish to ban abortion in all cases, are alsooverwhelmingly opposed to the availability of other forms of birth control, which if used - shall we say "religiously"? - would prevent said abortions from even being an issue. They are even opposed to accurate education about sex.
This is purely hypothetical problem I am pretty sure - I have never heard of such a poisoning. The psychoactive psilocybin mushrooms almost all have a distinctive "bluing" reaction when bruised due to the oxidation of psilocin to form a blue dye. No deadly mushroom has this reaction.
Now people do get poisoned thinking they are eating wild edible mushrooms, of which there are many types, some of which resemble deadly ones. Such poisonings account for 70% of all fatal natural source poisonings.
On the (small) commercial psychoactive 'shroom market all of the ones sold are cultivated Psilocybe cubensis varieties which are very easy to grow (as easy to grow as the white Agaricus bisporus mushrooms in grocery stores).

Anarcho-capitalism is the most extreme form of being right wing. Look it up.
They are definitely capitalists in Somalia, everyone is in for personal profit.

Another Coward demonstrating that someone can have neither.
Having killer robots controlled by evil people is very likely worse that them going "rogue".
The only reason you do moral things is that you think that if you don't a sadist in the sky will torture you after you die?
Really?
The FCC does not have to solicit public comment if they propose to end a regulation.
Making stuff up are we?
"If an agency decides to amend or revoke a rule, it must use the notice and comment process to make the change."
And throttling problems were seen, and were becoming more prevalent. It is not as if everything was super keen. Net neutrality was introduced to address a real and growing problem.
... but spending time to actually write something down will count a whole lot more.
Clearly not in this case.
It was an opinion poll about whether people were confident they could identify social bots. No study was done to see if they really could or not.
