Maybe not in Europe, but here in the US reloading casings is a thing. http://www.wikihow.com/Reload-... You do need to buy the right equipment though and these days it probably does get you put on lists on either side of the pond.

Casting bullets isn't the preferred way to make them (since these days people want jacketed bullets hollow points etc) but melting lead and casting them from molds is trivial.

I get that response all the time. Then they tell me it needs to support version 7 of "the internet".

Politics aside, the biggest problem with this is going to be the housing. Those "low end" apartments almost certainly didn't spring into existence at $0.96/sqft, but upgrading the 600,000 people from soggy cardboard is going to require a lot of new construction, and people building new things are going to want money for that wood, brick and property, even if the entire structure is built with robots. Terrafoam to the rescue, I guess.

That said, if you're willing to not own a lot of stuff or have a bedroom, it looks like 242sqft is plenty of space. It's probably pretty standard in Tokyo too.

But then how will minimum wage employers get to fuck around with everyone by suggesting that they get a second job if they want to live, then refusing to schedule a consistent shift so that the employee can schedule a second job with a consistently different shift?

you pay - either in money or time or experience - for more freedom. Either freedom of privacy

Or you pay for the illusion of privacy, such as getting AT&T with the death star's ever watchful eye on your traffic plus ads for $70 or for only $30 more you can turn off the ads but not turn off the traffic monitoring.

Now I wonder if tabs work in passwords on *nix, if I set my username to be pwd and my password to be cd ../../<TAB><TAB>f<TAB> how would anyone figure that out from a keylog dump?

But the failure is not of the science, it's the failure of 95% of everyone else, and that's what's important here!

but you will never get *more* calories out of the food than what's on the labeling

Unless you have gut bacteria that can digest dietary fiber into sugar for you.

Because this time they're absolutely certain that millions of 18-20 year old college students won't work to forge this ID and get drunk.

This compiles in my head (it's been a looooong time since I last touched C) and uses three allocations and several places that can fail.

/* Write no more than 1024 bytes to a new file.txt */
if (-1 != (dest = creat("file.txt", S_IRUSR|S_IWUSR|S_IRGRP|S_IWGRP))) {
  if (-1 != (src = open("source.txt"))) {
    if (NULL != (buf = calloc(1024, 1))) {
      if (-1 != (rd = read(src, buf, 1024))) { /* should reading zero bytes be an error? */
        total_written = 0;
        buf_p = buf;
        break_loop = 0; /* because break is just another name for goto */
        while (total_written < rd && !break_loop) {
          if (-1 != (wr = write(dest, buf_p, rd-total_written))) {
            total_written += wr;
            buf_p += wr;
          } else {
            break_loop = 1; /* TODO check errno for fixable errors like EAGAIN or EINTR */
            perror("Error writing to file");
          }
        }
      } else {
        perror("Read failed");
      }
      free(buf);
    } else {
      perror("Memory allocation error");
    }
    close(src);
  } else {
    perror("Unable to open source.txt");
  }
  close(dest);
} else {
  perror("Unable to create file.txt");
}

Feel free to bash and/or offer constructive criticism. There's probably some official order to how things should be allocated but I don't know what it is. Maybe memory and sourcefile should have come first to minimize filesystem impact. First thought is that the loop in the middle could be moved to a function to move x bytes from file a to file b using buffer c which relies on x a b c correctness instead of testing it.

I house-sat for my sister once years ago, and she had an AV receiver that was hooked up to a DVD player. Once I got bored watching DVDs I tried hooking up my playstation but couldn't get any sound. It took me several hours to accidentally realize that the genius who created it thought it would be a great idea to have completely independent audio and video inputs so even after selecting Video 2, the DVD audio (which was off) was still coming out the speakers.

Turn on 3D mode and you can tilt your head to see behind the "SIM Card Error! Contact Support Immediately!" popup in the center of the screen.

And if there's one thing that everyone else hates, it's paying to help disabled people.

I don't know on beta, but on non beta, you go to your preferences (the gear next to the post anonymously checkbox) and choose "Plain Old Text" for your "Comment Post Mode". This gives you the bastard child that is forum style posting, where you can write HTML if you feel like it or you can write whatever and as long as it doesn't look like HTML it will just work but as soon as you want to write < you better break out your html entities guide.

Also remember, two enters is a paragraph.

That is absolutely absurd! How can they measure the fluffiness if they don't even bother considering all the XML required to get hello world to work in [insert Java framework here]?
