Actually just going to LED street lights eliminates a lot of light pollution. Before our town made the switch to LED street lights I could see the light pollution 10 miles out of town proper any night of the year. With the LED street lights I only see the light pollution produced if there is a low cloud cover or light fog.

If your looking at games that need dosbox and/or ran fine on Windows XP most likely you are talking about 16bit games. Most Windows 10 machines are going to be running the 64bit version of the OS. Unfortunately, 64bit Windows doesn't run 16bit software anymore. I don't know if this is necessarily a bad thing. After all, how long do we really need to keep things backward compatible (ok, 15 years might not sound all that long but in the tech industry that is an eon)?

Not all countries have eminent domain laws.

I think this says more about how messed up peoples priorities are than how bad DRM labeling is. Guess I've just never been that committed to playing a game. 8-P

It's actually quite easy to mitigate smart TVs spying on you. Don't plug them into your network. 8-)

Wouldn't that only need 2.0 (or 2.1) sound or do you plan on playing all 11 languages at the same time?

So we aren't supposed to believe the "liberal media" and trust the oh so fair and balanced reporting of the two websites you quoted? I could just as easily say that the articles quoted are "not journalism, it is storytelling designed to advance a (right)-wing agenda". Sorry but I won't go so far as to say that they are "packaged as facts" but will admit they are still "nothing but politics".

Just remember that "Taxes are regressive. All of them." when infrastructure starts falling down around you.

Oops! Sorry too late.

In particular does it also apply to management? I kind of doubt that the presidents and vice presidents (CEOs, CIOs, CFO, etc.) are going to be affected by this.

Actually I don't think the fish would say anything as they don't have vocal cords nor do they understand human language.

Paper being currency really doesn't make sense either. The only reason paper (currency) has value is because it can be exchanged for goods that people want. If it were not for this exchange paper (currency) would be totally worthless.

I would actually argue that precious metals and stocks are currency (stocks maybe not as much but definitely precious metals). The only way this isn't money laundering is that using that currency to purchase stolen goods doesn't really clean the currency (the whole point of money laundering). You are actually using clean money to purchase dirty money in this case.

So would it make you feel better to state that the average T&C takes approximately an hour to read?

Its my understanding that it is just the ads they aren't allowing. If you specifically search for a computer repair service I'm sure you will still get hits.

To be fair electricity isn't renewable. It is the source of that electricity that can be renewable. Currently a lot of the electricity is derived from non-renewable sources but that doesn't have to be the case.

I would assume that this is mostly due to the licensing agreements and not any technical reason. If I am negotiating to pay a licensing fee for a particular series it would be in my best interest to pay a bit more for the license if I could gain exclusive access to that programming. With this exclusive deal I could then market my service as the only place to get that particular program and hopefully increase subscriptions from people that want to watch that series.
