@caine3320001: There are many other places in the world without a free market. Perhaps you could cite some examples of how they have better public safety records than we do.

@The8thDwarf: An improvised explosive IS deadly. A recreational watercraft is only a danger to the pilot and swimmers.

@joetato: I like our version better. Its like this suicide bomber/attrition fighter (chuckle) but with a guidance system instead of a pilot and a rocket engine in place of the hamster engine. I have flown R/C planes more terrifying than this.

Been using Ubuntu Tweak since installing Ubuntu. Quite a time saver.

Do not use the salt in the pic to gargle with. It tastes too good and is waaaayyyyy to expensive.

@JohnnyricoMC: If i may; my compaq from Wally World is about 6.5 years old, built with older hardware, and outdated when purchased. Since installing Ubuntu, which is fairly heavy for a Linux OS, it works like a dream. Including my wife using it for cafe world (Zynga). it has two 512 ram cards. half of what this…

@DreamTheEndless: I hear you. But there are those who insist that the thujone myth is factual.

@fadecomic: It is the type of coal used that matters. Research bituminous, vs. anthracite.

@caine3320001: Incorrect. Our economy is based on manufacturers supplying what consumers demand. YOU are dangerously close to socialism, and well within supporting a nanny state. Buying a small car had advantages, the trade-off is safety. Or would you have tractor-trailers eliminated as well?

I've been using Watchdog for some time now, and love it. Only one process in 7 weeks has run away, I was notified, killed it, and moved on. Rare to see something perform as advertised, happy to recommend when they do.

@ZB209: While I agree that momentum transfer favors the heavier vehicle, I question the absurdity of your statement, and hope it was made in jest. The sentiment expressed shows a belief that we should all drive cars of the same mass, perhaps adding ballast for lighter drivers. protecting myself (and my kids) is my…

@ZB209: Statistical analysis shows that every safety feature added to automobiles results in an INCREASE in the number of accidents. Fewer fatalities perhaps, but more accidents.

@DreamTheEndless: Death's little brother: The flavor would be terrible. But it contains many times the thujone of European absinthes.

On what planet is additive free charcoal cheaper than BBQ charcoal? Price kingsford vs. cowboy, or fire king, or any other. Kingsford is always cheaper. This is not an endorsement, I never use that carp. I always but natural lump charcoal, and it is always the most expensive stuff in the store.

Not to be "That Guy" but there was air sealed in some Egyptian tombs that was tested back in the late 80's or early 90's.

Begin adding sage to legal Absinthe now.

More than just saying that they won't need to be labeled as GM, the FDA has "Ruled" that real salmon cannot have labeling that reflects its non GM status. I would call that bias. Also we have the ACLU screaming about potentially mistreating prisoners with a pain ray, because we don't know its long term effects;…

@Badlands99: I'm glad someone posted this. I was about to.

@thatdecade: Keeping an eye out is a later article.

The first "Human' astronomer likely wasn't human. the first ape to count the moon cycles between rainy seasons was the first astronomer. Let's not be so dumb ourselves. The "first we have become aware of", and "the first", are completely different things. I was brought into the world in 1972. It is a reflection…
