The flaw here is that they don't say which passwords to what, or with whom.

There's no good reason not to share the password to a shared computer, and yet this poll puts anyone who does so in the same box as anyone who graffitis their bank login information on a bridge.

People who live in a civilized nation where that is far from the population's most pressing concern.

Just wondering, but what would you expect a cop to do after shooting someone if they were perfectly justified in doing so?

No, it's still a perfectly legitimate strategy. You just need to make sure your armed drones are also blind.

So you'd rather have the unscientific congress lobbied by the eugenics industry?

And you're quite right about that, barring the introduction of other predator species like wolves that have been almost entirely eliminated from most states in the name of protecting livestock. I don't have a problem with meat eating in itself, but it is true that it is far from an efficient way to produce food.

Woooosh.

Longitude and latitude existed long before the US government was born. I doubt they can even attempt to make that claim.

Domestic animal only breed because the farmers allow it. If you want to reduce the size of your herd, you don't mix the males and the females. It's that simple. Seriously. Cows don't have calves because of magic airborne spores.

The problem is that all these reasonable things you could do with an old fashioned vehicle you cannot do with a state-of-the-art car because for everything you do there's a computer between you and the moving parts. When the computer decides to go HAL 9000 on you, there is not much you can do about it.

On the other hand, try to find a dentist who has an x-ray machine manufactured more recently than the 1980's.

Key word being "modern equipment". It's not like most dental offices are just thrilled to discard their insanely expensive, decades-old X-ray machine and buy a brand new insanely expensive machine that does the same thing.

Yes, and that's a big if. Is it, in fact, impossible to refresh them faster than they are consumed? How much funding has gone into researching this frankly vital question?

You're charging more than a stack of empty pizza boxes and an old laptop for mod points these days? Discriminatory against underprivileged royalty, I say!

Organic fertilizer is renewable, it's just that we've reduces our agricultural industry down to a single person working thousands of acres of land, who can't handle the added workload of making an actual sustainable farm. If we're going to make it through the next century we're either going to have to accept an increase in food prices, or go back to buying food as raw materials (and actually start cooking at home again) as the extra cost of food is put into healthy farming rather than making sure all food appears on store shelves as frozen pizza.
