The solar power generation would be fantastic there, but I can't think of much other reason to go.
Well, if you look at the composition of the planets they generally seem to have lighter elements as you move away from the sun. Rocks close in, gas farther out. So the densest elements should be found on Mercury. In fact, in a temperate zone it would be possible (not likely) to have a lake of mercury with islands of rock or iron floating on it... It truth I would expect any mercury to long since have vaporized and been blown away on solar winds, but there might be molten metal lakes on the hot side.
In any case I would expect a high concentration of metal at the surface of the planet.So you build a rail gun and send big chunks of metal into space for use as building materials. You could use the sun to slingshot it just about anywhere.... In fact that might be a nice thing to have if we see an asteroid coming at us.
I am using over the air digital signal with a D->A converter box, I found that a cheap (about $30) Walmart TV amplifier made a big difference in signal. Save the receipt, be gentle opening the package (I used a razor) and if it does not work in your particular case then just return it...
I would agree but sadly old business models never die the just buy legislators. HUD in a car questions the very need for a windshield at all, and we can't have that for many many contributors, I mean "reasons"....
...The real question is will it deliver targeted ads while driving....
This could be a real boon for the billboard industry! The car plans the route to expose you to the client's advertising product most relevant to your selected destination. And, if you are willing to give up information on your friends personal preferences, you might travel the most direct path along with the message:

It's as though these new movies were written by a completely different author.
There were people writing that stuff? I always envisioned somebody dumping an eightball of coke into a 40, using that to wash down a handful of waffle pretzels and a mouthful of spray cheese, and then Voilà, it's movie making time...
Precisely. Faxes also have legal statuses that email doesn't, in some jurisdictions, so faxing is still a staple in government departments, the legal profession, and in B2B transactions.
It's also still used where visual content approval is required. Monuments, headstones, printing runs, etc don't get done until someone signs and FAXs back the proof page. Likewise many construction operations send proposals and bids, and receive signed, accepted bids by FAX. Many medical operations like FAX because the transmission can not easily be rerouted or duplicated (without other office workers noticing the half ream of photocopies someone just made).
Yes, you could set up a scanner and hope the people can handle attachments and graphic formats, but for the time being FAX is the most cost effective way to deal with many situations.
No matter how many people suggest it, or how high up it gets modded, avoid the tourniquet method! You might ask them to hang the collection bag from the ceiling... that should give lots of back pressure...
My God Man! Think of the BIG PICTURE. People will know when I'm not doing something, and may even expect some sort of performance improvement after they figure out that I now do nothing at all. Seriously, I am going to lose sleep over this... And I'll probably be expected to try and recoup those lost z's at home. Doh! Stupid Cloud...
Now we need algorithms to convert code into music. Take the source code for popular programs and convert it to music.

...How many other 'estimations', such as distances to distant stars, etc, can be off by a small percentage that would result in a large amount of actual distance?
Umm, I'll estimate 30%... it would be larger but sales and marketing departments have not yet become involved in things like interstellar distance and core super-rotation.
Ya but you normally have a few weeks notice for your summons. So I think a person would have enough time to load up on a few books by then.
given the issue I'd say you would be better served loading up your fB profile with things like"why prosecutors are evil" and finding some jury nullification advocates to friend... maybe make some pages like this one. You will still have to sit in the jury pool but no prosecutor is going to want you...
...Besides, if you can throw them into battle it is hard to argue that they don't have the right to make up their own minds.
As long as they don't decide to have a beer, as that would be illegal until they are 21...
Oh, don't forget the seemingly random age of sexual consent laws. No opportunities for bad choices there.
My fear is that some rule about a back door goes into effect, then open source software is deemed a risk because you can't hide a back door. So now they need new rules for what can be open source, of course many software publishers will want to help with those rules...

So, to make it illegal, you need a router that you can connect a USB drive to, so it can serve files?
Mine serves files, the config section is a series of internal web pages...

That is THE penultimate basement in America folks!
It's the next-to-last basement in America?
Right... for some reason the film did not have them land at DUGWAY PROVING GROUND... where the good stuff is located.
Yep.
Oh sure, it seems far fetched, but remember Jeff Goldblum was working underground at Area 51...

Why do you keep putting gas in quotes?
Did you really want him to let it loose? I would prefer his gas be restrained, we can only hope double quotes are up to the job...
"Why do you feel that Python is so bad? What do you find wrong with it?"
If you had not AC'ed that I would have modded it funny.

How about a single page with a large graphic saying:
