And yet there are stem cells in the body that can naturally express telomerase, so overcome the limit.

But it sure does seem to not be a defect or problem that there is a limit.

Easy to see how messing with this in healthy people would be likely to cause more harm than good, especially if they can't be extremely selective about which cells they apply this to.

Over time cell division inherently degrades the genetic material, because the error correction in the copying mechanism used in Mitosis is not good enough. Cancer, uncontrolled division, disease, new cells conveying inappropriate signals or not responding appropriately, or cells releasing harmfully warped versions of proteins, enzymes, catalysts, or other substrates or substances are just some of the bad things that can result.

What we would ideally need to achieve elimination of cellular aging is the ability to sequence a person's entire DNA when they are young. And later digitally replicate an exact copy of the originals and print new undifferentiated cells to replace old ones, so the telomeres are longer, and also.... there are no mutations.

Your family will be billed for the bullet (as is the norm in statist utopias).

How about if they don't execute you, then $30/Night will be due for your Prison stay, and $60/Night for Jail; $30 Extra for solitary confinement.

All fees due required to be paid before perm. release, even after sentence expires.

Possible release under probation/house arrest with additional fees, providing you are working to make sufficient $$$ to cover your outstanding debt.

When you are hanging "No Tresspassing" signs on your private property, or a "KEEP OUT" sign, do you also include in big print the exception "EXCEPT AS PERMITTED BY LAW" ?

The NFL totally has a right to inform you of the copyrighted nature of the content and their policies (if any) about what use of the work they are inviting, such as 'All Rights Reserved'.

They also need to keep the spoken language at a 1st grade reading level, so their audience will understand it: "Except as permitted as fair use" is strictly out.

I would question where the evidence is that there is any intentional deception.

Copyright law does not permit fair use. It is a valid defense against liability in court against a claim of infringement; in such a case, the user admits infringement but claims no liability due to fair use.

The copyright owner does not have an obligation to inform you that in some cases, you might have a legal exclusion that allows you to infringe upon their protected rights.

Now we just need to pass a law stating that a duty is to be collected on all such in-person transactions with random strangers organized over the internet in order to help fund law enforcement protection.

If law enforcement is present, they should collect a percentage of the transaction with a minimum $5 transaction fee, before goods or money are allowed to change hands.

If law enforcement is not present and the transaction is done on the seller's property, the tax should be a minimum of $30 transaction fee and twice as many percentage points, with craigslist required to collect and report on information about the accepted offer and parties to each transaction.

When NFL says "Any other use of this telecast or any pictures, descriptions, or accounts of the game"

They are not referring to you talking to your friends about the game or even you authoring an original description and publishing it.

They are essentially saying any descriptions or accounts given in the telecast or personal accounts written by staff under contract to create them are protected, which they are.

You are not allowed to copy a description or account from the telecast and reuse their description or account beyond what fair use allows, as it is subject to copyright just like the images, video, and live audio.

Let's talk income tax, because the vast majority of people are employees, not small business owners (when you compare the amount of actual business owners to the amount of pandering that goes towards them, it's hilarious.) When you make a certain amount, as I do, small changes to my tax rates don't really bother me. I make a shitload of money, so another couple of % of my earnings isn't really anything I'm prepared to uproot my life for, pick up and move for. Your claim that the rich people are mostly people who own business is stupid sauce.

Guess what, you're that Joe Sixpack. They've successfully convinced you that it's not worth the effort of trying.

How common are datacenter fires? The last time I heard about a computer catching fire was more than 20 years ago, and the fire was minor and didn't spread to adjacent equipment.

I suspect the battery stacks, generator fuel, or high current wiring for delivering electricity would be some points of greatest risk.

Theft is not that common in above ground datacenters, either; the facilities are serious about physical security. It is probably due to the same reason the facility is underground in the first place and why people would like to colocate something underground --- higher security, lower risk tolerance compared to applications for traditional datacenters.

Protection against fire is just another physical security issue being addressed. Without the low-O2.... the risk of damage to equipment by fire would be perceived to be higher in an underground facility with closed and confined spaces than an aboveground facility; less freedom of air to move = potentially greater risk over time of wearing out electrical systems that malfunction and overheat at risk of causing a flame to ignite.

Also, being underground, there would be no easy firefighter access.

In what way is that a car analogy?

Getting there.

The company that makes all the gas was concerned about people stealing gas, so to buy any gas from them, they make you install a specialized tamper-resistant fuel tank in your vehicle. They also install a paired radio-controlled device in your vehicle. And both devices are tied to the VIN of your car, so they cannot be removed or reused in a different car. If you buy a new car, you will need new equipment.

To obtain gas, you go to your retailer of choice, or you call your mail order company up on the phone to order by credit card. Either way, you get a "gas redemption" number.

In order to redeem your gas, you go to the pump, which is equipped with a tamper-resistant spigot. You insert the spigot in the proprietary tank-fill hole on the secure tank, then you enter in the redemption code you purchased.

Once you have entered the code, the spigot is locked into your tank, and the pump delivers a specified amount of two fluids, then ejects the nozzle, the pump and tank are then secured.

The tank is secured in that it is sealed when not fueling, and there is no way to transfer fluids to another tank: the gas has to be used in that vehicle.

Moreover, the tank will not release any gas to the vehicle or allow you to start the car, until you turn on the radio device, and it authorizes your vehicle to access the tank and start.

To help prevent gas theft, there is a feature where the tank itself measures how much fuel remaining that you are allowed to use. If the fuel level is higher than you are allowed to use, for example: if somehow you illegally added fuel without the use of a proper redemption code, then amounts of the two liquids will be mixed together to poison the fuel, preventing it from being used in a vehicle engine, and it will then be burned and released in a controlled manner

Some retailer was able to obtain a supply of the redemption codes at a lower price. A group of entrepreneurs pretended to be ordinary customers and purchased the redemption codes at a discount; they then proceeded to take the codes and resell them to customers in an area where gas is more expensive.

The paranoid maker of all gasoline got extremely upset by this, and decided to invalidate the redemption codes. But they also decided to declare as non-legitimate all gasoline purchased using the codes, so the secure tanks of many customers have declared their entire load legitimate and decided to destroy all their fuel, leaving the motorists stranded.

Ubisoft made the equivalent of a Record Player Juke Box that requires your music player to have a modern equivalent of a telephone line hooked up to it.

When you want to buy some music, you find a retailer, and you buy the product from the store, who issues you a slip of paper with a single use coupon with a code printed on it, or you call up a retailer and order on the phone, then they give you the coupon code to write down after your credit card is charged.

The code allows you to go home, turn on your Juke box. You enter the code, and the Juke box uses your telephone line (modern digital equivalent) to fetch your song.

Because the music recording company is concerned about someone stealing your coupon, or your credit card coming back declined later, Your Juke box is required to make a phone call, every time you want to play a song, just to make sure that the coupon was good and not fraudulently copied or stolen.

One day the Juke box music recording company thought it would be a good idea to pick some preferred "favorite" stores in certain areas that were having a harder time selling the merchandise, so they would offer these stores a discount on the music coupons, and the stores could have a great big sale on their products, as long as they sell enough units directly to ordinary people.

Some other enterprising young chaps caught wind of the sale and ordered a very large amount of music, then brought it to their own stores to sell at a discount.

The music recording companies are very upset, because the discount is hurting their preferred stores in areas where their product can sell at higher prices, so to penalize the young chaps, they have talked with their preferred discount retailers to get a list of the codes purchased and report all their coupons as stolen, so the Juke boxes will not be able to accept them, and all that store's customers will have to bring back the product for a refund.

Do you want to label foods with foreign DNA added from other plants, insects and animals (or even entirely created).

That would make sense. Instead the survey is for food containing any DNA, so Tomatos would always have to be labelled, even if there were no peanut genes........ that is, unless the Tomato were non-biological synthetic and sterile, to avoid having any DNA-containing surface bacteria.

What about the employees breaking the law? Are they permitted to release them? Alter their policy of violating the law?

The new owners will of course appoint a new management, who will have authority to make the changes desired; the old management as a whole retained for a time in advisory capacity only, of course some managers not supervising the sales/marketing/telemarkting departments might be kept for the new management.

Those managers related to the abuse, stripped of all authority and credentials, transferred to a partner company (The McDonalds across the street) and forced to remain on and work full time in the lowest-level job available for 15 years, in order to avoid criminal prosecution.
