I believe it is part of school curriculum to watch a movie about how awesome it was and how retarded it was that it was destroyed. Followed by a bit of anti-america/conservative stuff (arrow wasn't needed since the states said NORAD and SAGE would protect us all, who needs fast planes. Diefenbaker was just Eisenhower's bitch.).

According to them the safety features would add $1800 to a $4000 car. I like that it used radar to keep you from hitting other cars, a feature that has re-emerged in minivans with LADAR. Popular science article from 1980:
This is an american site posted by an american to americans because the americans on/. think that china is out to get them so it makes a good story. I hardly think the origin of the story matters.
Yes because they can afford to have 10million people in the government who's sole job it is to annoy and slow down their economy, that must be why it is increasing at a mere 10%/yr lately.
Anyone who thinks this is feasible or that it wouldn't kill their economy is an idiot. And if you mean they just exert control on occasion using a set of rules the gov came up with.... those would be called LAWS we have em too, get over it. The country is different but they aren't fucking aliens.
This should be easy as hell to figure out. Making this Idle and FUD. GJ/. supporting rumours that push the two largest countries away from each other, that always benefits the world.
Let me make this clear, China might be a bit of a douche to its citizenry but China is not out to get you America. As sad as this sounds, better you hate and fear people with turbans from the middle east, at least it won't develop into more than a couple million dead in the next 50years.
Sure, that sounds fine, if a connection is available do stat tracking. If it isn't then blocking the game isn't doing you any fucking favours. To not admit that is pretty bad. And I love blizz.
How was this a troll? It was a couple facts... Hughes H-1 Racer was the last non-military air speed record set in 1935 (apparently though if you count seaplanes there was one in 1934 that did 709km/h... dunno why it was so much faster). And the Tupolev Tu-144 was like a faster concorde the russians made which hit 2,500km/h.
I mean the national science foundation gets more than DARPA but the NSF is the whole science branch of government (obviously other bits get research too like DoE).... and DARPA is a project that the DoD happens to have; mostly used to help determine what the military should spend its tons of research money on. Military pushing research isn't remotely new either. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_funding_of_science
That certainly counts as an appeal to emotion fallacious argument. I believe that think of the children is more emotionally charged and rational thought ending than socialist nazi terrorists.
Also commissioning these videos is clearly illegal under aiding and abetting. Paying for videos already made could also fall under the same category though it is less direct. IF however they steal it or pirate it somehow it isn't aiding or abetting since the creators aren't profiting from it and they are not encouraging it. Unless you think # of seeders w/e is a big enough incentive for a molester to go make more videos of kids. The distinction is a pretty important one I think.
Also, japan not taking sites down simply because they've been reported makes perfect sense.
And MC Lars did too. System of a Down has an album called 'Steal this album'. I'm sure I have a harsher sounding track about stealing the song by like korn or something as well.
PDF is my most hated file format. (FLAC takes 2nd because people use it to make 3min songs into 50MB stupidities, I fail to see the purpose)
PDFs, Like an image file but it can take more space (if it is image heavy) comes with security vulnerabilities, and requires a separate app to open. And if they used anything related to adobe reader it will be a horrifically bloated POS.
It'd be like a few hundred fat people in a room and one fat guy is arguing that being fat should get the death sentence and all the executed fat people's possessions should be transfered to the first fat guy to help pay for more executions and fat-hunts. And the government listens to him.
Err... not so much keep track of. You know the/. saying 'the internet treats censorship as damage and routes around it'... Originally the damage that the internet was designed to 'route around' would have been damage caused by war/nuclear war. That way communications could remain open even with a large amount of damage. It is that flexibility that has kept the internet up and running since it passed infancy without ever shutting off.
The last air-speed record NOT set by the military was in 1935 at 566km/h. The fastest commercial aircraft today is 2,500km/h. I imagine that some of the tech was from the military.
While I'd love a world where science and science funding was not mostly military table scraps the options we have at the moment seem to be military scraps or a complete lack of scientific funding and development.
"Can a scramjet reach escape velocity?" No, you'd need multi-stage to escape. Without a revolutionary change in the tech anyways. As for weight I'm not sure but I think it might be good to point out that this is a riderless payloadless missile NOT a plane.
"Did they find a new way to lose heat at supersonic speeds?" Apollo re-entry was about mach 30 (and the launches) so the tech is available to not be completely fucked at these speeds. But this is also related to the above question, good heat shielding or an active cooling system cost even more weight making the system bulkier and slower.
I think a spacecraft based on scramjet tech would look like a traditional Soyuz. Rocket launch (since scramjets don't work at low speed). The canisters drop off in prep for seconds stage where the scramjets kick in (mach 3~mach 15 up to the functional ceiling of the scramjets). Then the scramjet would drop off and the 3rd stage would kick in where again rockets would propel the craft into orbit. So really it wouldn't change the face of spaceflight. What we really need is a super light 3rd stage now and perhaps we could have a spacecraft that isn't a 1-shot. If it is light enough you could have the thing launched from the bottom of a fast plane (as the x-51 currently is) and then take itself to orbit.

"It's pretty clearly the end of the Microsoft Era." Call me when osx breaks 20%. Or whe pad w/e usage is more important than pc usage.
Numeracy is a problem as well.
We are still bitter about that.

Ignorantia facti, non iuris excusatur. Might come into play here (Ignorance in fact but not in law is excusable) If you are really looking for latin.

Mr. Adams would probably be cool with it but he died in 2001 so only the lawyers are left to speak for him.
The law is racist, he's just trying to be consistent.

You know you suck when your company is playing catchup with Microsoft on security and patching.

They chose waverider since the US army sided with the autobot scum back in the 80s.
Because in space no one hears you zoom pass them in your badass scramjet missile?
