That would be terrible if they started using integrals and cell osmosis against the locals! We must put an end to this education at once!

I think a key part here was also "10 minutes" since this took many hours

Point is he couldn't get the rights he deserves even if the US wanted to give them to him while he's away.

Well to be fair, he can't get many of those rights if he's in Russia

Theoretically - yes, practically - no. Voting for a third party instead of the one he dislikes least would just mean the party he dislikes most would gain advantage, especially since in a case where one didn't get a majority, it would go to the House/Senate to decide and they're both the two major parties.

Whoa I have to plan my eating HOURS ahead? Who has the time for that?

Well in that case, there were some things that needed clarification. For one, the people without actual heatlhcare plans - the guys who payed their dealer in monthly installments weren't eligible to keep their plans. But the biggest issues was, the government doesn't actually control private enterprise, so they found a loophole where they could switch people off the plans they had before the cutoff (of the plans they could keep) to a brand new one with the same benefits. Then when the law came into effect the insurance companies said "oh darn, your cheap plan doesn't meet the minimum requirements, and it's too new so you can't keep it - Obama made us cancel it".

If Obama was a dictator, then he could say things about the future, but since corporations don't listen to the president, and Congress certainly isn't going to do exactly what he wants, it means the statements are what he hopes to happen - he doesn't have a crystal ball.

The president especially should be forward thinking in government - and we want him to share those thoughts with us. Since he's actually in charge of running a lot of the government, it might be a good idea to listen to him. Some speeches like this NSA one are full of weasel words, but since he's stating what the policy is going to be (at least officially), it's worth figuring out what he's saying.

The big issue here is of the 12 cases where a leak was large enough to cause an explosion, the majority of them were still present a year later. Lots of leaks are expected, but serious ones should be fixed.

They do one better - they charge the customers now for the line-loss as a percentage of what they use. They actually have incentive to have leaky pipes because it means they're selling more gas to the same number of customers.

Yes, I believe it was video that killed it

Yes it is.

Fortunately, the software isn't exactly legal (it was illegally installed by a virus that is), and the machine isn't being secretly infiltrated (you get notified about the Malicious Software Removal if you look at the Windows Updates), so that's kind of a moot point.

It seems pretty obvious - the people who's machine had Tor removed didn't know it was installed and weren't using it to begin with. When MS removed it, they didn't notice or complain.

Eventually - then you can spend the $2 for an LED bulb and never worry about the light dying while you're getting the Christmas lights down from the attic. As a bonus, you'll save money on electricity.

I've had one in my lamp running for about a decade now. It sounds like you might have power fluctuations in your house if they keep dying. Also make sure you don't try to dim them unless they say they're dimmer safe.

Fortunately with LEDs down to a few bucks each - it's an easy choice to make these days.

Well considering the Tea Party considers itself a political group, looking at groups with "Tea Party" in the same seems pretty logical. They also looked at more left-leaning groups with names that included "Progressive" or "Occupy", so the net result wasn't just right wing groups The IRS's job was to investigate all the groups, but they don't have the resources to do it. If the "mostly conservative" groups weren't getting non-profit status because of the investigations, then they were likely breaking the law since a legitimate non-profit would have no trouble.
