Maybe not from a third rail, but just fine from an electric fence.
Do not ask how I know this.

I'm entertained, but I think my cats hate me now.
Next weekend, at a local theatre, they are doing Wrath of Kahn and Into Darkness back to back with William Shatner hosting. It should be interesting.
We all know how well that worked out the last time.
The accident numbers represented as being caused by alcohol are massively overstated. If someone who has a detectable amount of alcohol in their system is rear ended at a stop light, that is counted, even though the person who struck them was completely sober.

Remake
Imagine Entertainment and Universal Studios confirmed that a remake titled Colossus, to be directed by Ron Howard, would be in production as of April 2007,[5] but was delayed for years. In October 2010, the project moved forward with the announcement that Will Smith will star in the lead role, with the script being written by James Rothenberg.[6] In July 2011, Variety reported that Universal replaced Rothenberg with Blake Masters of Law & Order: LA to do a new draft of the script.[7] On March 2013, it was announced that Ed Solomon, screenwriter of Men In Black and Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure has been brought on board to rewrite the film's script.[8]
I think Verizon should forfeit their rights to the landline infrastructure and associated rights of way. These can, in turn, be rewarded to someone who can maintain and improve upon them.
The engines used for the Antares are refurbished Russian NK-33's, originally built for use on the N-1 booster. These engines are pretty much 40+ years old.
For some workloads, Xen outperforms kvm, and vice versa. It is better for us all to have competing open source solutions than competing against closed source solutions. Also worth noting, Yes Xen was pretty much dead in the water for some time, but since getting their act together and getting support in the mainline kernel, they have been doing very well.
A Canticle for Liebowitz, and Stranger In a Strange Land would make awsome movies. I hope that someday it comes to pass.
Childhood's End, and Rendezvous with Rama would also be awesom choices, it done right.
Go for it JMS!!!!
There is a very good reason for using Amplitude Modulation. Frequency Modulation suffers from the capture effect, where a stronger signal in an adjacent frequency will be received instead of the desired signal. AM does not suffer from this. You can also make out an AM transmission underneath a stonger transmission on the same frequency. Digital transmissions are competely unreliable in very low signal to noise situations. Digital works, or it doesn't. At least with AM, you will get fragments of the transmission.
You are confusing Square with FourSquare. Two separate companies.
Microsoft came close to moving to Unix, but opted to continue with DOS. Linux did not exist until a decade later.
The Money Shot?
the inventor, per se. It was designed to get IP into the public domain instead of being kept as a trade secret. In order to do so, it was agreed to reward inventors for a limited period of time. This gave incentive to distribute IP instead of hiding it in perpetuity under the cloak of trade secrets.
Believe it, or not, there is only one laser. The output of one laser diode is split and amplified to make the 192 beams. The output of that one laser diode is probably in the vicinity of 1 Watt.
