One does not simply walk around in public with a glowing pointy object.
That's actually Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer's other attribute, when he gets horny.

Use multi-joint barbell exercises like squats and deadlifts. They build bone density and stave off the effects of osteoporosis.
Or just drink some milk for the calcium and go for long walks when you're in your teenage years (especially for females), and of course later as well.
You could add some wrist and ankle weights to enhance the effect, oh, and get some sun for the vitamin D.
Our bones don't have to be as strong as our ancestors were, they just have to be strong enough to get us through our lifetimes without breaking down.
In all seriousness, though, I think Sony ought to release the movie and I think everyone who believes in free speech ought to buy a ticket, whether they see it or not. Let's turn this movie into a blockbuster! That's the American thing to do! Well, at least back when Americans acted like Americans.
You've got to be joking! Everyone buys a ticket and gives a huge profit to Sony and Fox?
Fuck that, I don't think so.
Bring it on Google and Facebook. Consolidate all of my data. Have at it. I sure as hell wasn't doing anything with it.
Hell, I may even let you read my mail
Heh. What makes you think you have the choice? They probably already are.
Most of the "waste" from pressurized water reactors still has about 97% of its extractable energy left in it. It could fairly easily be reprocessed and reused in a PWR again, or used almost as-is in the future generation IV design fast neutron reactors.
The reason most used fuel is not reprocessed now, apart from the NIMBY complaints about the processing plants, is that "virgin" fuel is so cheap and abundant that the small extra cost is not deemed to be worth it.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't SSD's have a point where they put on too many write's per bit?
Tech Reportchecked a bunch of SSDs for write durability and virtually all of them made it to 600 terabytes of data writes or better.
For an ordinary desktop user, write durability is not a problem. Now what about storage durability? With 3 bits per cell, how long before the data fades?
Only because most of the world lives under socialist regimes disguised as democracy, whether it's the dirty boot heels of dear leader kim, or the 'soft', stagnant, and effeminate, culture that's been grafted onto scandinavia.
As opposed to America where you're living under fascist regimes, state and federal, disguised as democracy.
I wonder if some sort of artificial pulse generator would be an improvement, rather than producing the clicks yourself.
You'd be guaranteed repeatability and might be able to shape the pulses in order to get a better result. Would differently formed clicks work better at different ranges or with different surfaces?
I do something like this when I'm in the bathroom at work.
I can literally turn on a faucet here without touching the temperature of the water and the instant the water starts coming out warm I can hear the sound difference.
It's like the sound gets more "noisy" and less "linear" when it's hot water coming out. I can even tell as it's warming up since the pitch changes as well then holds steady at full-hot.
Anyone else do this? I'm starting to wonder if I'm alone here.
It's more likely a change in the physical dimensions of the pipe with temperature, rather than anything to do with the density of water. The pipe expands and its resonant frequency decreases.
Here in the Netherlands the problem is not in getting an AED on the site, but to find someone who can apply it. There are many people trained in using AED's and we here in the Netherlands possibly have the highest density of AED's, and although there is an elobrate system to call trained people to a person with a cardiac arrest, the problem is still in getting enough volunteers to join in. It is no use to have an AED within 200 meters from every house, if you don't have people who can apply them. AED's are not difficult to use, but in a case of emergencie, you need someone who can keep his/her head calm and follow the instructions.
The defibrillators I've seen give audio instructions plus have clear illustrations of how to use them. Unless the bystanders are REALLY stupid, it shouldn't be a problem
Right, that makes all the difference, because this is perfectly reasonable:
>We've discovered some counterfeit parts in your car.
-Oh, really? Well, I'm going to drive over to the dealership take that up with them.
>We've already handled the problem. We crushed your car into a cube.
-Uhhh...
>You have 15 seconds to move your cube.
As I understand it they're not bricking the device, they're bricking the OS's ability to use the device. As a result the customer will take it back to the person who supplied it. They're the ones who will be up for the cost.
The solution to "can't manufacture stuff at home" is inventing cheaper manufacturing tools. I don't think we'll see replicators any time soon, but there's no reason why, for example, plumbers shouldn't be able to print plastic parts for dishwashers on-the-fly or in the shop rather than waiting for it to be delivered.
It will be better to order the part from a 3D copy shop which can afford better equipment and processes, and have sufficient volume to justify the expense.
One way to make your old car run better is to look up the price of a new model.
