That's a boldface lie and you know it. You clearly have no understanding of the Mars One project and should refrain from further participation in this discussion.

Make politics not about who has the most money for their campaign.
In this day and age of social networking, why is it that voters still only consider Kodos or Kang, and then grizzle when they end up on a serving platter?
This.

GP is probably referring to the continuous spectrum of a black-body emitter.
Try putting a spectrometer (eg a CD) on an LED or CFL bulb and compare that with the spectrum of an incandescent. Now, that awful banding you see on the former applies to actual objects as well, which leads to things looking "unnatural".
That said, phosphors have improved a bit lately so the problem isn't quite as bad as it used to be.
I noticed that too. My two outdoor lights are presently one each of LED and CFL. Bugs flock to the CFL like, well, moths to the proverbial, but the LED one appears to be completely ignored.
Does anyone here have an idea why that might be? I wondered perhaps if the high frequency PWM strobing from the LED was perceived by the bugs as a flashing, rather than stable, light source.
And this, boys and girls, is an excellent demonstration of why copyright law is simply not working.
Why do we have copyright terms longer than five years again?
I buy no Mac software, but I provide support for plenty of people who do.
They will occasionally buy software on DVD, want to watch a DVD, listen to/rip a CD, create a CD or DVD to give to a friend/relative.
Not everything is on iTunes, you know. Not by a long shot.
This is cool, but just imagine the fever that nutters would work themselves into if the pattern were close to the Fibonacci sequence.
What a visionary innovation for Apple. A wrist watch that talks to your smartphone. It's amazing that no one has thought of it before.
"We donâ(TM)t need all those other ports, Apple says. We are living in a wireless world now, where we can connect most of our peripherals without cords."
That statement alone should give some clue as to how out of touch Apple are with reality.
I'm reminded of that every time I have to haul around an external optical drive for another enlightened Mac user.
What Geniuses.
I weep for the desktop...
So, with 79% of the vote unspoken for, a third party could have really cleaned up had one been organised enough.
Accounts would sign in to Microsoft Live or whatever they call it now.
Linux clients (and possibly servers) would mysteriously not work quite as well as before, when the new updates intentionally use Java features known to not work well on non-MS platforms.
Servers might just be consolidated to "authorized" providers such as XBox Live.
The PC version might be crippled to get "feature parity" with the console versions?
