You're close, Voyager was so that both copies of that godawful song were flung out of the solar system to the stars.

If your poorly constructed argument were correct, then the Earth's temperature would be increasing year upon year. However it is not, as the warmest year in recent records is 1998. We know from the fossil record that increased carbon dioxide levels are a response to global warming, not a driver

No, brain death is the legal criteria. Cessation of heartbeat is NOT a consideration. Research the phrase "beating heart cadaver" which is medical technique sometimes used to preserve organs prior to transplant.

Those people were dead, meaning brain dead. No hope of recovery or ressurection.

"Linux users" haven't chosen systemd. Instead some young ignorant and inexperienced hobby users with no understanding of proper engineering or the Unix Way imagine a convenient service that might be of benefit to those desktop or mobile users with no sysadmin skills, should be a standard for server systems.

Serious system admins shun and mock systemd as needlessly complicated and bloated mess.

Because people who prefer OpenBSD want to run Windows software on it? You are hilarious; in fact OpenBSD developers were chatting a bit about scrapping the Linux compat mode in the newsgroup recently since there is little demand or reasno for that

So drink strong black tea. Coffee is for wimps, get yourself some lapsang souchong, it smells like pine tar soap in a bonfire and will rev your engines in the morning. That's the one tea Winston Churchill liked.

not Bush's fault a damn hurricane showed up and spoiled that tried and true means of appointing cronies. You have to admit that vacant "deer in headlights" look Brownie had while corpses floated behind him in the street was priceless. Community activism is almost as good a criteria, can't wait to find out if Obama really wants to destroy ISIS or just "manage" them, or maybe just continue to tease us with the waffling.

Winning? Losing, this admission is that models were useless, shameful the billions of dollars and euros wasted on climate models that are a farce. Finally there is hope of producing a rational model and decent science instead of the agenda driven propaganda of the IPCC

Be careful of multi-year averaged graphs; they are useful but the reality is 1998 was the hottest year on record. After that many near-record years happened, moreso in past. But the point is global average temperature has not been increasing year after year. Today's article is first intelligent thing I've ever seen on Slashdot in a year on climate change; most people just ape the more hysterical claims of the IPCC and their ilk.

A creature weighing 59 short tons of course would be wimpy and easily bullied and not at all impressive.

Not useless, important concepts taught from it at the time, for example action and reaction. It was a physics experiment

No worries, cryopreserved people are dead forever. They will not and can not be revived and the industry is a scam going on for now 47 years. I'll bet some of those early adopters thought they'd be thawed and "cured" (nevermind they died before freezing) by now. suckers.

Wow, festooning a computer case with weeds harmful to grains, to bring it apart. That's very novel compared to something as mundane as tearing one apart.
