A former workplace of mine mandated that no-one was allowed to use re-usable coffee mugs at all. This was done because of the mass of dirty, moldy cups that seemed to fill every kitchenette in a multi-floor building. The business was a medi

Yeah. I can see that. But it's still implied. I suppose the government would have considered Harry Tuttle to be a legitimate terrorist, but his motives were ... different.

I think that the plot devices involving terrorism were the most prescient. When I first saw the film as a young teenager in the 80s, I was fascinated that the terrorists philosophy or demands were never clearly defined beyond "anti-gov

Yes. That is definitely key to living cheap on the water -- skirting the law. It is a similar situation for walk-on moorings with shore power and water in Sydney. The marina in the bay I linked charges thousands per month for large vessels,

I understand your viewpoint, but I consider all script tags that a server provides to be merely suggestions. A browser is, after all, a user -agent. The web was designed this way for a reason. Would I be breaking some sort of inferred agre

I guess they mean that they aggregate data? rather than storing it for individuals users? Otherwise, why do they need your browser to make a request in the first place? FWIW I agree with dylz. It is crazy to suggest that any company doing a

All tobacco sales are heavily regulated and taxed. The taxation amount increases each year until 2030 (i think). It used to be possible to buy them duty-free if you were traveling internationally, but that loophole was closed too. An indivi
