Ehh, I think you may be wrong about "no limits on production" by reasoning the amount in seawater. I mean lookingit up Lithium isn't listed in the top 10 salts found in ocean water. And desalinization--while it's something the world could stand to do more--is a slow or energy-demanding process. Sorting through the left over salt crystals for lithium would probably be more demanding. However lithium suppliesaren't too low at any rate.
Does that guy really think he's tearing Fieri a new one by incessantly asking nothing but sarcastic questions for two pages of review? Seriously, learn some English writing and criticism techniques if you're going to be a critic for a living.
I thought the links I provided made it fairly implicit I was referring to reCAPTCHA. I mean one is a picture of a reCAPTCHA, and the other is a link to a page explaining the reCAPTCHA digitization process. But, in case anyone else missed it, I'll spell out reCAPTCHA one more time.
Not sure is this is already super well known, but only 1 word is actually used for verification. In this example you could type "thrand " and pass it. The verification word always looks similar in font/size to 'thrand'. Oh, and the other word I believe is a scan from a book and if you *do* type it in, it will help the digital scan of the book actually pin point what word it is.
Skinner: ahh, but as it turns out the lizards where a god send since they've eaten all the pigeons.
Lisa: Isn't that a little short sighted, what happens when where up to our ears with lizards?
Skinner: Ah, well we shall simply release wave after wave of Chinese needles snakes.
Lisa: then what about the snakes?
Skinner: We simply import gorillas who will eat all the snakes.
Lisa: Well what happens when we're up to our ears in gorilla's!
Skinner: Ah that's the beauty of the thing, come winter the gorillas will freeze to death.
Fun fact: "tinfoil hats" are, in fact a government conspiracy. Tin does absolutely nothing to deflect the alien mind-control waves the FBI has been using. The widespread usage of the term "tinfoil hat" has been leading people into using ineffective methods. Your hats need to made out of aluminum .
Maybe this is exactly Microsoft's strategy. Keep paying Google employees to find their bugs, meaning they're less efficient at their current job. Eventually, the Google employees will have enough money to retire, and Microsoft will suddenly have a product that is free from major security flaws. Meanwhile, Google finds it has multiple vacancies in positions desperately behind on their work. I can just imagine Page looking around blankly, wondering when he was given the slip.
Not bloody likely, but would be funny if it happened.
Yeah, I skipped the article (...) and went straight to the site looking to see what my hometown and block I live in would be called. Very confused and alarmed at why my neighborhood had 'tigers' as one of the words, then I figured out what the site was all about. At least I don't have to worry about those goddamn tigers.
What people inherently like are the endorphins they're getting when "runner's high" get's triggered. Personally, I can recall sometimes where slogging through math and science excited me enough that I may have been producing a similar effect*, but that was only when I got what I was reading. If the teacher lost me/ the subject matter became over my head I was more like the runner's who feel nauseous after a run.
When I read the headline my exact thought was "Wow is the movie really that bad?". Totally thought Card was pleading for his fans to give the movie a chance despite a (predictably) botched job.
Goddamnit, getting my YubiKey today was the safest I've felt in a while. But, 2 ACs posting the same idea within 2 minutes of each other can't be wrong. Makes me wonder...by the time I get a shotgun, what will the next threat be?
The U.S., like you. I was simply speaking in dry, abstract terms in regards to the role of money as it may (or may not) be considered "evidence" in a criminal court case. Everything you said was irrelevant because in point of fact you were citing examples of police seizure for the sake of corruption and personal profit, not for the building of a case. I take no insult in being called naive by someone who can't even see red, he's so jaded.
Actually, I didn't see the second link. After following the four links [1][2][3] [4] on that page (starting right under the picture) it might be that the tumbler system was exactly what they traced. I'm still trying to make heads or tails of these links in combination with this transaction provided above which seems to show the DEA account (1ETD...) sending money.
That may be inconsequential. In the past, the main goal of seizing drug money (in this case, the bitcoins) has been to gain evidence in building a drug case. Namely, that the physical set of bills was "sent from" a buyer and "received by" someone in exchange for illegal narcotics. The usage of said money to buy new jerseys for the police softball team was always a perk, but ultimately not relevant.
Thing is, this guy must not have used The Silk Road, all transactions there are put through a so-called "tumbler" that splits up the A->B transfer through a myriad of different transfers. So if I buy a drug for $60 on SR, and send it from my account to the dealer's, his bitcoin user address gets that amount from many different addresses, none of which my SR address ever touched. In short, they've been 2 steps ahead (maybe now only 1 step?).
Can someone give a set definition of each, or is there no "metadata" at all? 'Cause I was under the impression that the bytes transmitting my usage of phone data (my voice when I'm calling, my text when I'm texting, the data for an app I'm downloading) was "data". "Metadata" then, would be which cellphone tower I was receiving the "data" from, the date and time stamp relating to that usage, the GPS location--all things that article was tracking and showing. All things appended to said the data. So, again what's the difference or is "metadata" just irrelevant in this case?
I completely agree. Most people that dismiss "old music" are nothing more than luddite trolls that simply feel they don't have the time to broaden their horizons. And right now I'm listening to a record from 1 year ago by a band barely known outside of my city. People with real reverence for music don't "stagnate".

Of course I want it, I love sponge cake! It's like eating a delicious sponge!
Keith Alexander, is that you?
Yeah, this article is biased, but not incorrect. Namely, they forgot to point out that the PS4, for the first time in the console history, will require its subscription (PlayStation Plus) for online play. Here's a more even take on how both consoles are ramping up their profits: http://www.nbcnews.com/technology/pay-play-xbox-one-playstation-4-differ-premium-features-6C10874607.

Which alternative? Mitt Romney, Jill Stein, Gary Johnson, or...?

"Slashdot is powered by your submissions, so send us the scoop!"
"Crash-landed" would have been most specific, I suppose.
Yeah that's kinda what I was thinking, thanks. msuave did a good number on clearing it up with regards to this story, too.

You must work for these people, right? I mean is it standard operating procedure to do stuff like that at every new website? What else have I missed?

The Iliad is still a riveting tale. "Dated" has no meaning whatsoever on art. Grow up.
