That's still fixable. Just like how most computers are air cooled and not water cooled. They could build a very large air cooling tower and not need water at all.

Cooling from cheap to expensive:
1. Take in water, return water some amount hotter. Requires the most water to limit temperature rise.
2. Take in water, evaporate some of the water in a cooling tower. Results in less water, but also takes less water and controls temperature rise better
3. Dry cooling.

Most systems are actually something of a hybrid of the three.

There's yet one more problem (among many): Cryogenic freezing doesn't prevent ice crystals from forming, shattering cell membranes.
Basically, the body is mush where it is critical for it not to be for a successful resuscitation.

There's nothing like a good smack to the beitzim to stop a would-be rapist. And there's nothing like biting someone if it's all the leverage you have.

Remember, this is not a video game or a sanctioned fight in a boxing ring. This is your life versus the life of a terrorist or other attacker. Kill or be killed. Learn to fight.

Irrationality. I remember it well. Quoting Wikipedia: "Irrational exuberance" is the phrase used by the then-Federal Reserve Board chairman, Alan Greenspan, in a December 1996 speech given at the American Enterprise Institute during the dot-com bubble of the 1990s.

The PayPal debit card pays 5% on the category of your choosing - Groceries, restaurants, fuel, etc.

Same, unless I'm using up some credit card points, I just book directly with the airline and the hotel as much as possible. They will generally bend over backwards to help direct book people before they do whatever they can for those who booked third party.

Exception, at work we use AMEX travel, and they get stuff done for us. I assume that because they represent so many large company travelers and they negotiate for good rates, but aren't the ones going for the $40/night room specials the hotels and airlines offer them good cancellation policies.

Yeah. I see numbers like that and I feel late to the party.

A good point, but thinking on the marginal transactional costs to process a sale of additional items after one, people deliberately buying two items to 'stick it' to the business and get maybe 5 cents off their purchase is actually benefitting the business, and the customer spending more time figuring out the exact cost before checking out than the five cents are worth.
Basically, I figure that the business could outright discount every item after the first by 5 cents, and still profit more per item when people are buying 3-4 items at a time rather than one.

I doubt that, especially with varying sales taxes screwing with things.
The draw to price everything in .99 is too high. Or even .95 or .97.

A lot of studies of paper vs plastic bills are looking at paper bills using scrap cotton and linen fibers and still having wood pulp.
US bills use the premium stuff and are 0% wood pulp. As a result, our paper money lasts as long on average as the plastic bills.
The math changes when one considers that we don't have to import our fibers into the country and can thus get the good stuff for less than other countries pay for scrap.

A website hasn't been Slashdotted in 15 years.

So this is Geniza from between the First and Second Temple? Sorry, just had to ask. :)

Odds are if you really push it just sounds an obnoxious alarm while letting you out. Kind of like pushing against the gates at my walmart to go out the entrance area rather than the checkouts.
I just give zero hoots and do it anyways.

I'm guessing they've been using MacMiniColo. Super convenient to set up and run, but kinda pricey. According to the article they'll still be using Mac minis, but buying them and then running them in a Malaysian data center.

I'd argue that it is still a factor.
Not a lot of convertibles in Alaska.

And there are vehicles up there that, despite being all ICE, that work better or worse to the point that yes, it is an issue.

Then keep in mind that we're still effectively with the "first year" models. Odds are the underperforming companies will fix their performance sooner or later, or get outcompeted by those that do.
