Such submarines would be autonomous.

During Cold War it was clear that if on side starts a full scale conventional war and is going to lose it will use its nuclear arsenal to stop the enemy. In most scenarios this was first done with a limited nuclear attack followed by a nuclear resonse of the same magnitude. However, at this point it might trigger mass retaliation which would require a response in same magnitude. Therefore, in almost any scenario at the end all are dead. This was also the key logic used to tell the opponent that if you start you will be dead. Mutual distruction.

This is not true. The Left is also against it.

Or trains. In Europe we have trains. ;-) especially in Switzerland, Italy, Germany, and France.

No it is not. Also you can still by bleach and other household cleaners which can be weaponized. They do not rule out notebooks or other battery carrying devices.

In Germany we all carry a personal ID and have to provide an address to the state where we can be contacted (which is also used for elections). However, these information are only allowed to be used in specific cases. To protect us we have data protecton laws. This registration allows the state to autoregister you for elections, handle your taxes etc. However, recording data about my traveling is not necessary for the state and I doubt that it is compatible with EU treaty regulations and local constitutions. Courts already invalidated laws to collect mobile phone data and meta-data. Having an ID is quite practical. If the police stops you and you have an ID, they are only allowed to check it. If you have the time you can ask for the cops ID as well ;-)

Or British, or Hungarians, or ...

No no we are vast too in Europe.

Reading the posts here saddens me. All this hate on climate research telling that NASA is only interested in more funding (sound like MY TAX DOLLARS!!!!), or that man made climate change is a hoax comments, or the science was wrong in the past. This only tells me that all this poster do not understand science or don't want to understand science. And that a deep conservatism has hit the US. So while we try to change our impact on climate and in general on natural resources, you will continue to pollute the world. Too bad that we have to life on the same planet.

Actually, I have a Logitech headset (approx. 10 EUR/11.30 EUR) and a mono system. Some might think that this is poor quality, but it is sufficient for me. Therefore, I voted mid-range.

If the unisverse is not expanding (which it is presently) in general then that allows not to conclude that the age of the universe is infinite. It only shows that you cannot determine the age of the universe on the basis of inflation. However, you still could determine the age by entropy. The higher the entropy the older the universe. And if I look at my work desk, the universe is pretty damn old.

The US citizens are afraid of so many things including Islam, terror, their neighbors, bees, black people, etc. Then stop electing those people. Why the fuck are you either elect crazy republicans which would first shoot and never ask, or the democrats who occasionally ask but also make politics for wall street combind d with gunboat diplomancy.

First, this free electricity to those who cannot afford it. Second, in other EU countries like Germany, if you are poor they pay your rent, healthcare, electricity etc. of course only to levels to support your basic human rights. Nothing else they do now in Greece. This is no socialism this is capitalism otherwise such measures would not be necessary as you would have enough resource tokens to get the electricity.

As no country is going to pay back its debt, why should they do so?

Modularize the software. There are a lot of tools which can help you to analyze static dependencies in the code which can help you to identify components. You could also use a run-time analysis tool for example Kieker which is initially for Java, but there is an extension for C/C++.
