It's one louder
I’m waiting for 11G.
Social isolation and physical confinement played a part as well.
I don't believe any successful European settlement of North America began with a base as small as twenty. I expect alcohol would become a problem. I expect suicide would become a problem.
Alcohol won’t be a problem. Someone will open a Mars bar.
They’ll have to change the shirts from blue to red.
If you live in a state with abbreviation KY, you deserve to get shafted.
However, anything that promotes the use of computer science and technology to students who are crap at languages (like I was) cannot be that bad.
If movie producers got a flat, monthly paycheque, there would be zero incentive to make *good* movies.
Or new ones.
TFA says:
a series of six images over a 60-hour period taken from a ground-based satellite
I wonder what a "ground-based satellite" satellite is. Do they meant a telescope?

You know, like a brick.

Oops, wrong sketch...
The UK has somewhat different customs in this area (and possibly different laws). I recall reading a comment a few months ago from someone in the UK talking about how many more cars get through a green light in the UK than the US because the UK drivers are all ready to start moving as soon as the light is green, rather than waiting for the car in front of them to move before taking their foot off the brake. It is perhaps unwise, but if that's the habit, it's more understandable.
No, it's because in the US the light sequence is Red -> Green, in the UK it's Red -> Red+Yellow -> Green so the drivers are reacting faster and skewing the stats.
In fact most are moving on the Red+Yellow part of the sequence.
Or Multics...
Either way, what the researcher did was IMO wholly appropriate.
Yes but he's probably going to jail for it.
Why would suicide be illegal? Where I live it isn't. How could be someone prohibited from suicide save livelong incarceration in a padded cell?
He's likely assisting. That's the illegal act.
You'd actually have thought that if it worked seals would have evolved stripes by now
I'm pretty sure Russia also has their own PRISM.
I expect Snowden knows that and probably has a PPT slide on it.
There's no way he (or Wikileaks) would make that information public - because of his asylum request. Plus if he did Russia would put him on a plane to the US.
Two-faced traitor. Started of with an ethical stance, degraded into the last stand of a desperate man.
You can always leave if you don't like it
