It will not, most likely. Ruling in favor of Damore would have huge implications for 'right to work' statutes. It would make it harder for businesses to fire at will -- there's no way a conservative court would do that.

i don't hate FIOS. wish they didn't require me to use their awful Quantum gateway, but am otherwise happy with them (once i disabled their DNS, which shows ads)

I wonder if they still do this in areas like New York City, where you cannot legally turn right on red, either?

I'm really tired of this thread of thought. A degree in the humanities is not useless. I have a BA in English Literature and a master's degree in information science. I am a very well regarded virtualization and cloud engineer. A good education is a good education.

no, it just means you screwed the high wage / high cost states, where 100K isn't exactly a huge salary.

i assume someone will make a dock/line out cable with a built in dac, since the lighting port support digital audi out

micro is way better for one reason: its unsquishable. not a month goes by that one of my 200 blackberry users don't need a replacement mini usb charger because they rolled over it with their office chair.

Short jokes are the lowest form of humor.

The report compares running costs of a solar plant against the running costs of nuclear PLUS construction costs. Not only that but also chooses the most expensive plant designs, and takes the extremely high end estimates.

Taken from http://energyfromthorium.com/:

Fuel costs. Thorium fuel is plentiful and inexpensive; one ton worth $300,000 can power a 1,000 megawatt LFTR for a year – enough power for a city. Just 500 tons would supply all US electric energy for a year. The US government has 3,752 tons stored in the desert. US Geological Survey estimates reserves of 300,000 tons, and Thorium Energy claims 1.8 million tons of ore on 1,400 acres of Lemhi Pass, Idaho. Fuel costs for thorium would be $0.00004/kWh, compared to coal at $0.03/kWh.

Capital costs. The 2009 update of MIT’s Future of Nuclear Power shows new coal plants cost $2.30/watt and PWR nuclear plants cost of $4.00/watt. The median of five cost studies of molten salt reactors from 1962 to 2002 is $1.98/watt, in 2009 dollars. The following are fundamental reasons that LFTR plants will be less costly than coal or PWR plants.

isn't the container format specified by h264, basically a quicktime container?

my library (the new york public library) has thousands of ebooks. Most are currently in PDF format, but ePub is becoming very common (the PDFs are ok to use, the epubs are just like the purchased books from the Sony store). My wife uses her the nypl.org website to download them to her sony reader. They do not work (as far as I am aware) on the kindle, but are supposed to work in the nook as well. Its super convenient. The books expire in something like 20-21 days. The biggest snafu is that they only can lend out $num of copies at a time, but you can 'reserve' them like regular books. I'm thinking of getting the nook once it becomes widely available, because of the ease of the whole system.

Additionally, most larger library systems will allow out of area residents to purchase a membership for the use of materials. I think the NYPL charges $100 for the privilege, which may or may not be worth it depending on what one likes to read and how much.

um, oh bondage, up yours was X-Ray Specs (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-Ray_Spex). Never went mainstream, was an awesome album

it doesn't, at least on the Droid variant, support remote wipe, making it against the regulations for most company's exchange/activesync policies. Even my company which allows users to have nearly whatever they want) will not allow android because of this
