Last year I cracked my screen but my phone was under AppleCare so I when I went into th eugenics bar they just gave me a new phone. Took like 15 min.

The point is, the article says that this bionic leave can be used to create fuel. What I'm arguing is that fuel requires so much energy that there's no way the bionic leaf capturing energy from the sun could produce enough fuel to meet our needs, using practical assumptions.

The honest truth is there is a ridiculous amount of energy in a gallon of gasoline. It's like gods energy source. it's extraordinarily energy dense. it's a liquid at room temperatures. it's relatively non-toxic in that it won't kill you right away. It's relatively energy in that if you spell it it's not going to burst into flames. Even if you throw a match on it the surface will light on fire but only in the presence of oxygen. It will never explode unless you actively turn it into an aerosol. We've gotten good enough at refining and distribution that it's relatively cheap and ubiquitously available. It's really really hard for any alternative fuel to compete with gasoline, because gasoline is gods fuel.

Maybe the GP should copyright his SSN, so if he gets doxxed he can post a takedown notice!

i still don't believe it.

actually the batteries will be integrated with the chassis so when you take it in for a battery replacement they just replace it with a remanufactured car.

if the guy is in your building, then just walk the files over on a thumb drive. that way it never goes through the network at all. or, just print it out and give it to him? seems like a number of options are more secure than email.

> That means even sophisticated tricks like a “cold boot attack,” which literally freezes the data in a computer’s RAM

Does the attacker douse the computer in liquid nitrogen, like the T-1000?

I already have my license on my phone, it's called scotch tape, bitchezz. and I can show the officer without even needing to unlock the screen!

I think a more apt comparison is the MacBook air, which is why the surface commercials compare against the air not the ipad. it's an interesting discussion which is a greater value; they both cost about the same and serve similar purposes. the comparison to ipad isn't as apt.

can firefox keywords take you directly to search results in youtube (!y), google images (!images), and dozens of others? I didn't think so. ddg #ftw.

i once worked at a place near a wonderbread factory, and I would buy things at the wonderbread factory store.

i priced out a surface a couple months ago. with the felt keyboard thing it was $1200 out the door, more than double an ipad.

i assumed you meant lobbying republicans, which is also true.

agreed, ddg is my default as well. i also like the bangs feature, so I can type into my browser's search bar "alexander hamilton !w" and it takes me immediately to the wikipedia page for alexander hamilton without needing to deal with any annoying click throughs.

so you're saying that even though the methods are roundabout, the conclusion is sound. I agree!
