hey, it reduces end-of-life welfare costs by killing off the population more quickly. The "food pyramid" is good policy if you're a sociopathic bankrupt program.
I got a full blood panel before and after doing a ketosis diet for four months. All my numbers were much better, but to be succinct my total relative risk metric for coronary heart disease (1.0 is average) fell from 0.8 to 0.3. I was using a half gallon of heavy cream and several cups of coconut oil every week. Some bacon and steaks too. Plenty of nuts and cheese.
Most people see similar results. None of these blood tests are new science. All of these studies could have been done in 1980. I wonder if they were.
They just want as much lobby money from Goggle as they receive from the competition.
With 90% of their revenue coming from Google yet they just signed a 5 year deal with Yahoo how is this going to work out?
I guess we'll see, but Yahoo is probably guaranteeing at least as much revenue as Google, for the opportunity to be the default search engine.
So that gives MoFo five years to have FirefoxOS take over the smartphone market.
Bwaahahahah.
I'm sorry, that was wrong.
Population count (507 mio. vs. 319 mio.) and GDP (18.4 trio. US$ vs. 16.8 trio. US$).
Given their superior regulatory environment, why does the EU only make less than 70% per-capita of what the US makes? Especially given that many US-headquartered companies are recognizing most of their revenue in Ireland.
The whole global warming scare made it abundantly obvious that the current state of science (plus politics) is incapable of intelligently managing the climate, or perhaps even managing it at all, much less intelligently.
But, hey, look what Harvard Economists have done with engineering the economy! Can't we have some ivory tower academics "fixing" the planet too?
But seriously, an upper-bound projected sea level rise of 4 inches is completely unprecedented, so we should seek to thwart the productive capacity of humanity, and whatever happens, don't put one tenth of that money into ensuring clean water for every human on Earth, eliminating malaria, or building fusion reactors. Where the regulatory victory in that?!
If you must be entertained, find alternative sources, from indie stuff all the way to pirating.
Or - I know this will sound crazy - getting out and involved with your community instead of passively receiving 'entertainment' from the glowing screen.
and a matching array of iOS and Android apps that will read all the engine stats off the dongle onto pretty dials on your phone or tablet.
Yet some OBD2 ports output certain data elements and other don't.
I was looking for battery voltage with Torque on my Forester, and it's a non-reported value, though other cars support it.
I'm sure somebody maintains a wiki with the matrix of models and values.
Though when he said "most hackable" I was thinking '82 F150 - no special tools required at all.
They were taking OTA signals and retransmitting them across the internet for profit without paying the broadcaster a dime.
So, exactly like broadcast.
You don't see a problem with this?
Of course not - do you have a problem with broadcast? That's the very business model the broadcasters are in. Aereo was in the business of being an outsourced antenna provider - what problem could you possibly have with that?
If anything, Aereo was bringing them additional customers to watch their ads.
All this is is the broadcast corporations wanting to get in on some sort of nebulous not-yet-defined Internet business model that they think will make them even richer. A company (Aereo) is now out of business, all those jobs lost, the advancement of science and the useful arts is diminished, customers no longer have a service they value, and what - for the possibility of further enriching six multinational corporations?
The government fucks up again, news at 11. Or not, because all the news is owned by six multinational corporations.
government sponsors the basic research, then they kill it, then they prevent industry from commercializing it when it would threaten extant corporate profits, especially in energy, and by extension military spending and petrodollar advantage. Google 'integral fast reactor', Branson, etc.
We've known how to make all the clean energy we need and clean up our nuclear waste problem at the same time for the past 20 years. We have a government problem, not a technical one.
Only 50k to sell my soul for having them spy on more people... including myself?
Nope.
Of course not you - but the kinds of people who will submit are going to get job offers from the NRO. They are willing to make that deal, they're not bright enough to run off to industry, and they might have a glimmer of talent that cannot be cultivated in the university system. Plus, $50k isn't enough to quit and start a company, so it's a well-considered recruiting effort.
There's ways to MAKE more, and improve nuclear power at the same time. But nobody wants to talk about it.
You mean like France, which has lots of nuclear power, active plutonium extraction and reprocessing capability? I don't want to get the ESA all tangled up with France or anything, but if they asked nicely...
Jefferson used to complain about the long line of people at the White House who were there to see him - most of them looking for a job hand-out, but some with legitimate issues for him to deal with.
Perhaps Congress could start by dissolving the enivronment that has caused so many people to want to do antisocial things like harming a President, who is mostly supposed to be a CEO of the government, and occasionally lead a defensive war against the country.
Oh, nm, that's just crazy-talk. Might as well fill the moat with hunter-killer boats from Lockheed.
No, they can't and it shows.
A STRANGE GAME
HOW ABOUT A NICE GAME OF CHESS?
