If, like most people, you don't live in a Faraday cage, and if your country hasn't built a giant one around itself, you're most likely "in danger", aren't you?

"When I was your age, Vesta was an asteroid"

This seems quite complicated! The right way to do stuff is to first do it, and write your hypothesis afterwards according to your results. The same goes for engineering: you make the product, and then write the specification. Otherwise you would be wrong / request for deviation too often, and that would be depressing!

Actually, no; we count on people who designed a rocket launcher the proper way (read: under pressure during the cold war) many years ago, and nowadays they don't know how to do it anymore. This is one of the reasons why the modifications to the Soyuz rocket launcher were kept to a strict minimum before launching it from Kourou: they wanted to keep as much as possible the old design that we know worked quite well.

You sir, have a very peculiar definition of your friends... As people I know started to sign up and use telephone services more and more, I started getting less and less letters from them. Now I only get letters from a few of them. Don't get me wrong, its not a bad thing as it lets me know who my real friends are!

Maybe 90% of people who sell their old drives before they stop working know how to properly wipe them... Do you sell your drives that still work?

So... Androids are biophobic?

Exactly. The less words, the simpler. One of the reasons I am switching to DuckDuckGo: instead of typing 'wikipedia something' (previously with Google in my address bar, I just type '!w something'. I don't see the advantage of going back to a full sentence in natural language...

I am surprised. I don't remember very well what were the launch windows for LEO orbits, so this might not be applicable... But for GTO orbits, it was either one or two days of delay if there was a minor preparation glitch on the launcher, or something like one month if a new flight software had to be generated and qualified... Anyone knows more about this?

Maybe one of the biggest? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petroleum#Consumption_statistics

Moreover, in several European countries, you simply cannot fire someone by email; you need to summon them for a preliminary interview first, etc.
