common in those days
Ach, this reminds me of the good old "just doing my job" argument heard around the concentration campfires.
but then goes for batshit insane politics that would push us back to the worst part of the soviet experiment.
Examples?
I looked him up to see what was so crazy, and all I found was:
None of that seems all that crazy or dangerous to me
For example, a simple search for "LaTeX" (typesetting) yields pornography on some search engines.
FYI, if you Google "TeX", nearly every result on the first page is for LaTeX. The two exceptions are an IMDB page for a movie and a Google Finance page for the TEX stock. It also helps that there is a tex.stackexchange.com site.
How can you not be "self directed" if you are compensating for "movement of the target". It has been given a target and actively modifying its flight profile in flight. There must be some intelligence and/or sensing and/or feedback to do this. Seems like an exercise in semantics to call it not-self-directed (at least in flight).
Is this a disclaimer to avoid getting these bullets confused with things like autonomous killbots? Though it is pretty easy to assume killbots will overwhelming choose these bullets as ammo
The spelling of that chemical alone will prevent its success.
If 'xylitol' is hard for English speakers, it should be doubly so in Finland. We did extensive clinical research on its use against dental caries in the 1970s, and now everyone and, well, not their dog, has been using it in forms like chewing gum for a couple of decades.
However, we are notoriously bad at pronouncing foreign words. For instance, initial 'str' in words like 'strategy' ('strategia' in Finnish) is often reduced to just 'r', at least when spoken by older people with less foreign exposure. This just reflects the lack of such combinations in our native language.
It sure is a funny coincidence that television viewers generally have line of sight to the set.
Huh. Growing up, were you one of those kids that never actually played with the remote?
Well of course I'm familiar with the back wall bounce. It probably won't work across too many reflections in weird angles. In fact, it seems that newer remotes have narrower working angles to avoid conflicts with the bazillion other receivers. The point is that light works for remotes for obvious reasons, it's really the bug that turns out a feature. It's also well known physics that higher frequencies are more easily restricted by obstacles.
Factorials were someone's attempt to make math LOOK exciting.
