And people say Americans don't do irony.
Not since they invented self-ironing shirts, anyway.

With point to point and the upstream RCD having a higher trip current than the downstream ones,
The codes I know don't allow cascaded RCD's; it's either an RCD with a group of plain circuit breakers downstream (here in .nl it's four maximum, ISTR it used to be six), or a combi RCD/CB per circuit.
(Mods, is there any way to keep the indentations in code snippets?)
< code > and </ code > should do that, but the spaces (or tabs) still get eaten by the Comment Space Eater:
double heightmap[125];
for ( unsigned int i = 0; i < 125; i++ )
{
heightmap[i] = 0;
double xpos = i - 25;
unsigned int listsize = list.size();
for ( unsigned int j = 0; j < listsize; j++ )
{
if ( abs( xpos - list[j].X ) < 0.5 )
{
if ( list[j].Y > heightmap[i] ) heightmap[i] = list[j].Y;
}
}
}

MS: "Huh? Oops! We thought it was nine fives!"
Office nine-to-five (in a timezone that does not have this interval overlapping with your working hours).
And it was not only email that was out, you lying Putrid Relation twonks at MS. Unless you define the rest of Office to be email too.
That's actually pretty civilised.
Try riding a bus in the backwoods of Mexico or Colombia (would probably apply to all of Middle and South America, but these I know from experience). But then you need to add a conversion factor from pigs, chickens and other livestock to passengers annex terrrrists..
(rockets don't have to travel on bumpy roads, or be reliable for 160000km).
Hmm. I suspect the forces on a rocket (and its payload) during launch are well beyond what a Volvo is subjected to, hurtling down an potholed öljegrus road in northern Scandinavia. And reliable? You can't pull over with a spaceship and call roadside assistance if the engine goes phut.
Penisland.com was/is a prank.
A shufti with whois against whorepresents.com returns
Registrant Name: LEVERAGE COMMUNICATIONS
Registrant Organization: WHO REPRESENTS INC.
so that's likely to be real, and the joss song and whalesmoke whiff emanating from the registrant name makes me think they themselves are blissfully unaware of the alternate interpretation.
The others you can investigate the same way, and decide for yourself.

didn't have the heart to tell him that my last interview was half an hour
Half an hour? The shortest one was two questions, maybe a minute: "Can you start tomorrow, and are you always wearing those silly clothes?". Both were answered in the negative; because it was only the next Monday that I could start, and I don't wear interview clothes except at interviews, and only when pressed.
"Anyone upset with Microsoft's pushy attitude with forced Windows 10 upgrades and mysterious data slurping will assume any and all nefarious changes are omitted from the feature lists – or are disguised as innocent-looking tweaks."
Descriptions on a website can be easily changed or even removed.
"This patch has always been at peace with your system."
Suppose a web site only supported IE and your Mozilla browser "stole" Microsoft's agent string and claimed it was IE?
And who exactly would that inconvenience? Microsoft? Nope. Mozilla? Not at all. The web site's operator? Maybe, if he was inundated by support calls: "Your site doesn't work right. Oh, I'm not using a real IE, but Mozilla set to claim it's IE" that he doesn't reject out of hand, and probably offset by a larger number of visitors. And a visitor is quite likely more inconvenienced by being forced to use a particular browser, than having the browser fake its identity.
So, wrong analogy.
I have no idea what is technically possible, but actually popping up a warning when the device driver is loaded would be (IMO) the best way. I'm guessing that isn't possible.
With headless systems the driver could register its complaint with the system logger, but with embedded controllers you may not even have that option.
<Sam the Eagle>I am appalled, truly appalled by this so-called Security Theater. It is not secure, and it is certainly not Theater. Neither is the Muppet Show, if I may be so bold to say so. Anyway, this abhorrent invasion of the skies by mechanical playthings, endangering us, must stop. And calling on us, the eagles, or our esteemed colleagues, the vultures, to rid the skies of this litter, is demeaning. Demeaning, I say. Let people clean up after themselves as they should and let them involve in wholesome activities such as baking apple pie.</Sam the Eagle>

I highly doubt that the Norks have the brainpower, not to mention the resources, to do it on their lonesome.
Orbit degrades, kimchee heats up due to air resistance, kimchee starts emitting fermentation gases, fermentation vessel lid opens (by divine intervention from the Eternal Leader, its exhaust is directed to correct the satellite's orbit), altitude is restored. At the same time, any nearby capitalist-imperialist running dog satellites are corroded beyond repair by the fumes.
I don't think so. His brain (i.e. him) is totally aware of what's going to happen to it, and probably envisage several scenarios post-op, although it almost surely won't know how it all will turn out.
If he survives at all, the minimum outcome would be quadruplegic from the neck down, with whatever brain damage he incurred from the freezing. One step up may be like a stroke victim mixed with someone who's lost limbs: needing to retrain motor control and senses as well as phantom sensations. But I'm not a brain scientist in whatever way, shape or form.
STR it got as far as inventing and trying to prove Goldbach's conjecture (every even number greater than two can be expressed as the sum of two prime numbers).
Did it manage deducing the existence of rice pudding and income tax ?
Yep, he did gloss over fictional AIs from video games.
If with 'he' you're referring to the author, then you're demonstrating Natural Stupidity, especially with regard to parsing the author's name and correlating it to other articles she has written, some of which clearly reveal her gender.
That one is a solved problem - you initially deploy a small drogue patachute which slows the payload and puts tension on the line ready to pull out the main chute.
I know that part is, the question was rather regarding how much height will the cabin have lost until the point where the speed has reduced to about where you can deploy the main chutes with the passengers being subjected to Gs that may be acceptable to the average non-jet-pilot person.
