Honestly asking: Where from the east do you think they would be able to pipe enough water from? Because to me the only two options are the Mississippi River or the Great Lakes. The Great Lakes will never happen because of the Great Lakes Compact—one of the few examples of interstate cooperation actually working as it…

Mead and Powell will benefit more once the snow pack starts melting in Nevada and Utah. Mead should look a lot healthier in May and June than it does now.

But...from the article, “it is so very flammable”?

While this is promising - the story doesn’t quite line up with the the headline, you know?

Um I think you're confused because your description is factually and utterly incorrect. There's no cracked or ripped software or multimedia on there. I think you've confused Internet Archive with Pirate Bay.

Amazing, everything you just said is wrong

And missing from your post is it’s all public domain, out of circulation or not accessible through any supplier or service

If someone were trying to start brick and mortar libraries today, these greedy fuckers would be bellyaching about them, too, and trying to shut the whole thing down.

I’m a writer and I’m on the side of the Archive, especially for those books that are Out of Print and out of Circulation. Digital copies are the only way to access these books that no one is making any funds of - who know all those books that wind up in the landfill or box sales at 25 cents a box for decades old…

Missing from this article is the fact that the Internet Archive isn’t just giving away digital copies of copyrighted works. It has a checkout system like any other library. In fact, for a lot of books, you can only check them out for an hour at a time while reading them in the online reader. They aren’t available for…

I’m sure he works a lot more than that. Every geosynchronous commsat up there has the same problem, after all, and when he’s not doing consulting work on a specific spacecraft, he’s probably doing research and design work. This is very challenging stuff. I mean, it’s actually not as simple as it seems to measure fuel…

Sony TVs are excluded? Anyone know the actual why? 

WHY DOES IT HAVE GOOGLY EYES

Note that this would violate state labor laws in a number of places like California. In those states, once your time off is vested, it’s yours and can’t be taken away.

Yep, not even worth the time to try to remember what TV I bought in that timeframe. How do they even verify it? Do they think everyone will have a receipt for a TV they bought 25 years ago?

Rats I don’t think I have a receipt for that tv I bought in 1995 🤪

I’ve gone up to a car identical to mine and wondered why the door wouldn’t open. After a couple of tries I noticed a jacket that wasn’t mine in the back and realized mine was the next one over. I could see someone in a hurry to get kids having this happen if it let him in. And if it let him drive, all the more reason…

reaper was $9M in 2007 and $32M for current models. 

Obligatory “this business will get out of control.”
