And then we are at exactly the problem people were already complaining about in the 1960: the militarization of the energy utilities, or the military-industrial complex.

And how do you make sure that no one of the guys with the really big guns is in league with the enemy? Basicly your idea of safe containment of dangerous materials is to surround it with dangerous people. Doesn't seem to be a good idea in the long run.

There are many more passively safe designs. The reactor at one of the universities I was inscribed had pellets made from vinyl mixed with fissionable material in a certain ratio. Whenever the reactor overheated, the thermal expansion of the hot vinyl pellets made the reactor sub-critical, and it shot itself down.

Sadly though, this reactor had a designed power output of 3 Watts, while the whole thing was about 30 meters high and had 3.5 meters in diameter.

I simply doubt that. It's just confirmation bias. You only have things left from several decades ago that were made to last. You only listen to music from decades ago that had a certain musical quality. All the rubbish is long thrown away and long forgotten.

The problem with rubella is not the actual sickness for an adult. The problem with rubella is when pregnant women get it. Depending on the state of the fetal development, diverse organs can be heavily damaged, including the heart, the brain and the spine. So whatever you think about rubella, make sure that no pregnant woman ever gets rubella. During the first three month of a pregnancy, the probability of the fetus for being damaged by the rubella virus is about 90%.

And Hamburg is known as the birthplace of the hamburger, which is made from beef, which is raised in large quantities in Texas, and the most prosecution-friendly venue for patent lawsuits in the US is East Texas...

Aha! We've found the causal link!

...

But now I wonder what the basic legal trends are for the Frankfurt regional court. :-P

Cheers,

Boy bands have existed for ages, and while no one expects each of them to last long, they make big business while they are existent. They were never expected to produce music with an everlasting impression, they are expected to land one or two big songs, sell a huge amount of copies and then cease to exist.

Lets just put "There is no quality music anymore" to the same group of sentences which have accompagned humanity since the first conversation about 1.7 mio years ago, like "They don't make things to last, like they used to" and "Those children of today! When I was young, we never...".

Some people live in countries with more sensible data plans available. (I don't actually know if there is a cap on my data plan at all, but on the other hand, I don't use the Internet capabilities of my mobile not very often. And no, I don't use any music streaming services either. Never had, and probably never will.)

If you look at the list, a) it mentions being totally incomplete and b) look at the BP tankers alone, each line consists of several ships in the same class.

Sorry, it should have been Zobel vs. Williams.

U.S. Constitution, Article IV, Section 2, Clause 1, as interpreted by the Supreme Court in Zoe vs. Williams (1982).

Coming to the U.S. is a right for an U.S. citizen. And being able to appear in court where you are called as a witness is your duty.

Why should the airline? It's not their fault that they weren't able to provide the service.

You could dig through the links and actually find the evidence.

The target range of the Skyjack drones is limited by the range of the WiFi card, but Kamkar said he uses a very powerful WiFi adapter called the Alfa AWUS036H, which produces 1000mW of power.

So this "very powerful" Wi Fi outputs 1000 milliwatts ... which equals one watt.

Am I missing something, or is this just bad reporting?
