The energy comes from the black hole itself - every single particle that escapes makes the black hole less massive and therefore smaller. This loss balances the energy required to escape the potential well of the black hole, leaving a grand total of zero, same as to start with.

I've been here long enough to recognise the accounts that I "like" and whose posts I'll pay more attention to, so my policy is that if someone is annoying enough to want to flag I'll a) go through current foes, find ones I don't recognise and un-foe them if they've not posted in ages, or b) just get rid of a friend I recognise. I've never used them to give bonuses or penalties to scores, so that works out for me.

I'm not quite sure what you consider a technical project then, as Metro consists of a new application mode, a new set of APIs for implementing applications, and a completely new style for every part of the GUI.

You're forgetting their other service, writing bloated verbiage about last month's overused buzzword and marketing it as cutting edge market analysis for clueless C-level executives.

Because there has never even been a civil war, military coup or brutal dictatorship in which the military of a country was responsible for vast numbers of civilian deaths and other atrocities, right? Given the right situation the US military will quite happily shoot their own citizens.

Bolt Thrower maybe, but even when death metal was the only thing I listened to Cathedral were fucking ghey, I can't imagine how you'd consider them death metal.
