Wrong. The deaths were impactful and gave weight to the story. It wasn't your typical Saturday morning good guys win bad guys lose tripe. There were consequences. The battle between Optimus Prime and Megatron was paced perfectly. You're a fucking moron if you think having the main protagonist and main antagonist, who also happen to be the two most popular characters, fucking die is anti-climactic.
I bet you're the type of dipshit who prefers the fast cut, shakey cam, 20 minute shitfest where protagonist A fights antagonist B for a bit, then we switch to supporting character C doing some bullshit with the computers in a race against time, then we switch to female protagonist X fighting female antagonist Y for a bit, then we switch back to the main fight between A and C, all of which are resolved nearly simultaneously with the good guys winning and the bad guys losing, typically with the good guys refusing to kill the bad guys once defeated, but the bad guys going for a last ditch dirty move when the good guys turn their backs, only for the good guys to respond with a lethal finishing move.
The first Transformers movie sucked badly. Really badly.
The Transformers: The Movie is fucking awesome. It has a great story, an amazing soundtrack, and the most amazing voice cast of any movie ever:
Peter Cullen
Frank Welker
Judd Nelson
Kasey Kasem
Eric Idle
Scatman Crothers
Lionel Stander
Leonard Nimoy
Robert Stack
Orson Welles
And you get to top that list off with a song by Weird Al Yankovic.
If they escape, they won't have time. If they don't escape, there won't be any pressure on them to do so.
When they escape, they'll have plenty of time as they'll be escaping along with chunkettes of their growth medium, containing the synthetic amino acids they need. As the bacteria grows the concentration of synthetic amino acids will decrease relative to population, creating the pressure to adapt to not need it. Further, no pressure is necessary for an effective change to come about - all specialization is random, and it sticks around if it is not detrimental.
Evolution would not (realistically) happen because bacterial leaks would have too little time to undo all the changes and re-adapt to natural-only aminoacid environments, the adaptive pressure against synthetic aminoacids would go from zero in the lab to 100 in the wild immediately.
The possibility would had to be taken account if there was a natural way to keep the bacteria in gradually decreasing concentrations of synthetic aminoacids, you would then give a chance for the reversion to take place slowly and over many generations.
You're assuming the lab is perfectly clean and the modified bacteria and synthetic amino acids are perfectly contained.
None of those things are true. They are all false.
And such changes don't take place "slowly" in bacteria because bacteria churn through "many generations" rapidly.
Then you have to invent a new material to make the transmitter out of.
Then you have to increase the power in case someone uses that material to block your signal.

how about 'it would take me more time to figure out that your halfassed shit won't do what i need
than to do it myself properly'
it sounds arrogant, but its true more often than apparently you can conceive
This. Look up any software / IT service sales page and answer these 3 questions.
What is it called?
What does it do?
How much does it cost?
If you can't answer those questions, you don't want to buy the product.
The point was that you are still not making everything from scratch.
If you wish to make a website from scratch, you must first invent the universe.
Define "device".
"Device" has always meant the motherboard.
Nope.
Plenty of things from CPUs/GPUs to add-in cards will trigger the authentication check to fail.
The license never specifies what a "device" is. The closest you'll get to specific licensing language is with their server software and the distinction of CPUs by core and by socket.

This is more than a one-time upgrade: once a Windows device is upgraded to Windows 10, we will continue to keep it current for the supported lifetime of the device – at no additional charge.

In the past they had the option to call a toll-free number and simply state that it's the same device and they'd give you the reauthorization key. I've used it and it's painless. But there's no reason to believe that that option will be offered in perpetuity.
The law is blatantly unconstitutional.
This.
Alt coins are almost always premined - the people trying to get you to use them and trade them have a massive pile in their name.
Inflation is neither necessary nor desirable.
I don't even have to ask about the premine to know that this is a scaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaam.
So it actually gets seen.
