What weight can a woman lift? I guess 50 kg (on earth, yes I know the difference between mass and weight).
What weight can a man lift? I guess 100 kg.
What is the range of 90% of weights that could need lifting in an emergency? Anything from 1 to 1000 kg - guessing again.
So men are only useful for a range between 50 and 100 kg, which is (100 - 50) / 1000 = 5% of the time.
Not worth taking a man, I say.
Reminds me of this one: Girl to boy "You have one of those, and I have one of these. And with one of these I can get as many of those as I want!"
Only one rule is needed. I believe this rule could be made by the FCC without any new legislation:
Rule #1: If you fuck with packets, block ports, prioritize any type of traffic over another, or do anything except providing the contracted bandwidth, you may not call your service "Internet". You may not use this word in advertising, in contracts or any communications. We call this "Truth in advertising."
You will be allowed to use the term An Obnoxious Laughingstock, or its acronym.
I have been on the receiving end of plenty of disdain about my gaming, from multiple members of the opposite sex.
I am male.
I have seen with my own eyes, stations capable of refilling 20 cars simultaneously, each in considerably less than five minutes. This would be equivalent to about 80MW, assuming 2.5 minutes.
Of course, the filling was with gasoline, not electrons.
Yes, but the courts signed off on it when they should fulfill their role as in checks and balances. They have also used impossible requirements of "standing" and arcane legal arguments to abdicate any responsibility to uphold the plain intent of the Constitution. It has gotten so bad that everyone is shocked and amazed when SCOTUS makes the otherwise obvious ruling that cell phones cannot be searched without a warrant.
Revenge is a dish best served cold.
Nice write-up here http://www.heritage.org/consti... demonstrates that both the Courts and Congress have capitulated.
And the courts who are supposed to be overseeing them have proven to be no more than rubber stamps.
I think the judicial branch has a lot to answer for in this whole mess, from letting AT&T retroactively off the hook, to accepting secret FISA courts, to issuing warrants to SWAT teams on negligible evidence.
"The Congress shall have power
This fails the promoting progress requirement.
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."
ALL men (and women, Stan), not just Americans. If we truly believe in these rights, we should seek to uphold them universally. Your rights should not vanish on the other side of the border, and neither do those of people who live there. RIghts are indivisible.
The US did the same for AT&T and the rest.
"To declare that in the administration of criminal law the end justifies the means to declare that the Government may commit crimes in order to secure conviction of a private criminal would bring terrible retribution."
"Our government... teaches the whole people by its example. If the government becomes the lawbreaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy."
"...corporations and the U.S. government are failing at complex planning."
Mathematically, the world is a "chaotic" place. It is axiomatic that complex planning will fail. So those not familiar with the field, think of "butterfly effect" or "Black swans".
So inevitable planning failures are blamed on technology.
The best solution, proven empirically, is laissez-faire. I concede that "best" means different things to different people.
