Every time I read the events that led up to this I want to yell 'don't do it'. Even though I know the outcome I just feels if I yell loud enough they will hear me.

There were so many steps that led up to this. Had they stopped at any of them, this could have been averted. That design was just a disaster to happen all the same.

As a pilot, flying cars are a terrible idea. It is the worst of both worlds. On top of it, it is entirely environmentally inefficient.

The guy falling in does not experience any time dilation. From his perspective, it will happen at normal speeds. Ignoring that radiation would likely kill you before the tidal effect, it would be quite painful but possibly too fast to be noticed.

Agree on the value they assign it. Is too low.

Knowing a couple of incidents first hand, this is going to be a very difficult problem to fix. The biggest issue is that IT is IT's worst enemy. Unlike most departments, management has to fully rely on IT's word that they are following and implementing security policies that are effective. These policies suck for IT personnel though as they make their job much harder. Thus they love to take shortcuts. Attacks come in a few vectors but predominantly they like to hold data for ransom or in this case, may love the Intel they can get. Virus scanners work mainly on known viruses and new viruses can get past them.

So here is an actual true attack I was personally involved in. Large company with very good virus scanning has employee install, unwittingly, a remote access application. Some new virus but it took the employee's approval. Employees need internet access and draconian restrictions result in IT being chastised by said employees. So IT hates being hated and tries to accommodate for multitude of reasons that results in less secure networks. Once remote access is running, bad guys install apps to make virus scanners appear functional but do nothing. Then they install keystroke recorders while scanning the network and just getting a lay off the land. At some point an IT technician is officially at this computer because for 'some reason' it lost access to a shared resource. Oh it just needs elevation. Instead of pulling out their laptop and logging into their secure desk computer few stories up, they decide to use said employees desktop instead to access their computer and update the infected computers credentials. This alone is not dangerous because the infected computers does not have access to backups. But the Keylogger on it has now transmitted the IT personnel access credentials to the bad guys. Later that night when business closed, they use the infected computers to log into the IT technician's computer. From there they install additional keyloggers and review access and any other software they want. Then they they watch this guy as he does upper level maintenance across their network for weeks/months. Maybe they get into a few more computers until bingo, someone maintains a backup that gets keylogged. Ransomware attack encrypts all databases and the backup and demands for two million dollars shows up.

In this particular case, luckily an off-site backup is found but it is a month old. Lots of employees trying to recover by memory some of the lost data. Management angry because IT been telling them they are following best practices. IT angry because they truely could use more money. Regardless, more money won't fix a guy that is too lazy or too overworked or doesn't care or... to start up his secure laptop or real two floors up to insure he is not using elevated services on a compromised system.

Eventually the local area will grow by that rate. Or so the theory goes. At some point it will rip atoms apart.

But ya matter isn't faster than light. The expansion can exceed that but not matter. Is a big distinction and doesn't break casualty.

In fact it is advisable for a child to approach any adult, male or female, if they feel threatened or are in need of help.

Record profits are due to lower investment in production resulting in scarcity. Particularly when you factor in Russia whom we showed to become an energy giant. There were large losses in past years that rather negate record profits overall.

And? Point being do you think they will let you use that for free?

Possibly they should have a paid service where your info is not sold but you willing to pay?

Not sure why you guys are so angry. Could be the lack of lakes?

And?

The people or person that actually lost it.

You were just asking why people were upset. Sorry if that upset you.

As long as they are accurate or not embellishing the report.

Because not having lakes makes the land mass far less valuable and useful thus many Americans are angry by that fact.

Land with lakes are far more valuable and useful than land alone and can sustain far far more people.

You want bodies of water to make land useful. Particular in that there is no lack of land in North America.

And lakes and land are far more valuable than land alone.

Did he have children?

Of course it adds to lack of supply. Reducing that method of transport just makes investment in North America that much less. As we seeing, that investment is being made by countries like Russia, Saudi Arabia...

We could easily be producing far more taking world markets from Russia, Saudi Arabia etc. The US canceled Keystone alone resulting in oil now coming from Venezuela. This is incredible dangerous and short sighted.

How is Europe subsidizing fossil fuels when then enact windfall taxes?

Yes let us ensure countries like Russia become energy giants. That works out well.

Energy policy in the West is a complete shit show. We are crippling our oil industry resulting in countries like Russia becoming energy giants. And the results of an emboldened Russia is pretty clear now.

We need to save like Norway in that we encourage clean energy while maintaining our fossil fuel industries. That is until clean energy can actually displace it world wide.

He won't answer that.
