I'm half-surprised that Amnesty isn't taking the sides of the killers of humanitarians, and I honestly am surprised that they are speaking out against it. Google "Gita Saghal" for what I'm talking about. Are we sure the Amnesty letter isn't from Saghal on filched Amnesty letterhead taken before she was fired for calling the Taliban enemies of human rights?

Did the test include shooting at the crew? I'm sure they'll find that sitting nearly motionless over a well-armed enemy does not make airship pilots invincible.

WTF?!

Also, it seems like you think people should be amazed that your are able to replace tabs with spaces in your IDE? Welcome to new millennium. Here we use graphical IDE's with something called "Find & Replace". It does not require you too read a manual to understand how too use, and it supports regular expressions. Just matching tabs however does not. You can actually copy paste tabs as normal characters.

The new millennium? Text editors have been able to do this for close to 20 years. While learning how to use an editor like vim or emacs well certainly requires some manual study, using one feature only requires a simple search.

Well, just STFW.

You can do this yourself.
WinPE/BartPE will run from a thumb drive, for example.

Is /. looking to compete with google by crowdsourcing search result for the most mundane and trivial bits of information out there?

OK smarty-pants, let's see how well Google does it: the most mundane and trivial bits of information out there

Prove it.

Sure can.

The game you're talking about was licensed from a 3rd party, and Microsoft got a bad build of it. Maxis, the software's author, released the same game as one board of several available in a package called "Full Tilt! Pinball" in 1996.

I experienced it first through the "Full Tilt!" product, and was sorely disappointed by the version included in Windows. My biggest gripe was the plunger - in the Windows build the power of the ball release wasn't proportional to the distance the plunger appeared to be pulled back. Yes, that's a petty complaint, but little details like that stand out when you've played the finished product then get handed a copy of the beta release. There are other problems, too; I think Maxis made improvements to the physics engine after licensing it to Microsoft.

If you like the version you got free from Bill Gates, then do yourself a favor and find a copy of the full release. Three boards instead of just one, with fewer bugs. You'll be glad you did.

Antenna design for hand-held devices at these frequencies and power levels is not exactly trivial, and minimizing the effect of the human body (hand) on the antenna characteristics is the subject of much research in the industry.

Note that this "antennaphile" site called the iPhone 4's antenna design "cool", and said to expect to see other manufacturers adopting similar designs.

Note that the forum thread linked below says that your hand can affect a GHz-band antenna from as far way as 3cm. So where on a phone that is FAR less than 1cm. thick are you going to place that antenna that WON'T have "hand-effects" to some degree? Now, factor in the fact that the FCC MANDATES that the antenna be on the LOWER half of the phone (where your hand naturally grips!), and you can readily see that, as Jobs stated (and demonstrated), EVERY cellphone suffers from the presence of the user. Keep that in mind when you hear people proclaim "NO other phone has these issues." WRONG! EVERY cellphone struggles mightily with this limitation (the presence of the user), during EVERY SINGLE CALL and with EVERY SINGLE USER.

No, you fucking-ass moron, you did not do the math. You may have done something that felt like math to you, inasmuch as it stressed your tiny little brain, but it wasn't any math pertaining to this problem.

26% farther is -2dB

-20 dB is 10x the distance

What should DNS server administrators do to sign our own domains, and configure our servers to pay attention to DNSSEC when performing lookups?

I learned how to configure BIND a decade ago, and it's mostly just been smooth sailing since then. I have no idea what's involved in setting up DNSSEC, whether it's something I can figure out how to enable in 20 minutes or a huge project that really won't be feasible for me to undertake at all. Can somebody point me in the right direction?

It's apparently been over a decade since you've tried to look up information on the internet too. We no longer use gopher. There's this new thing called HTTP and WWW. There's also an upstart new search engine company that'll probably die out in a few years--but you can use them here.

I smell an Apple hater who likes to avoid unpleasant facts

I see that by your reasoning this makes me "incurably stupid".

When 1000 people say you are wrong and no one says you are right, then stating "I'm right and all of you are wrong" without even the basic checks (I sent you the first line from a Google search on "sexual orientation", it wasn't rocket science) seems deliberate. At least I didn't link to http://lmgtfy.com/?q=sexual+orientation .

That you happen to be right in particular about the definition of sexual orientation does nothing to change my opinion of your behavior in this discussion.

Is English your native language? You speak of it like there's some morphing of the language in English that doesn't happen in other languages. My behavior is that you made an incorrect and offensive comparison. People other than me corrected you and pointed out your error for both your offensiveness and your misuse of the term that you stood behind as justifying your offensive behavior. Let me make this clear, even if the definition had supported you, you would still have been offensive. That you don't even see that after so many people have pointed it out indicates your level of deliberate stupidity. I can prove you wrong with links for the definition of a phrase you obviously don't understand. I can't link to anything that "proves" you an ignorant and offensive ass. But, from your post, that's how you come across. You incorrectly use a phrase to compare homosexuality to pedophilia, even if just in an analogy. That's like talking about gas chambers with Jews and claiming that if they are offended it's their own damn fault. Some of them are a little touchy of associating the two (so much so that such comments could be illegal in some areas because of historical reasons). So to claim "it's just an analogy" or such wouldn't remove the offense. But, like your grossly incorrect and easily verified misuse of "sexual orientation", you state you are correct and everyone else on the planet is wrong. Proving you wrong with use of the phrase "sexual orientation" is trivial. Proving that actual offense is felt and that it's justified is impossible because you won't allow it. I can't change your opinion. I can just inform you that it is wrong. You have no empathy. You refuse to understand what the other people are saying (well, you understand the words, but you don't internalize them). Your opinion of what should offend people is somehow more important and correct than the sum of all the other people on the planet. Do you not feel it a coincidence that lots have declared you wrong and not a single person defended you? Why might that be?

My behavior is simple. A person posted something incorrect and offensive. Then became a defensive ass when this was pointed out to him. So I stepped in to back up those who had already pointed out your error you were unwilling to see. You were, at best, ignorant of the English language, insensitive, and egotistical. Since that was proven by your words before my first reply ever came, I responded in kind to your displayed tone. I am curious now, how someone could understand such big words, but not understand such a simple phrase. That, and your wording is what makes me think that English was not your first language. And if that is the case, then the fact you were arguing with a pile of native speakers over the meaning of something would make you incurably stupid. Sure, we can cure this one instance, but there's absolutely no evidence you've learned any lesson from this. You are fallible. You make mistakes. When lots of people say you made a mistake, perhaps it makes more sense to assume they might be right and verify your words. When you are proven wrong on a two-part argument, perhaps the second part is also wrong. But no, you won't concede that either. You haven't learned anything, you just got corrected on just one word, and everything else you were correct on and anyone that responded to you was an as

Wow, you suck at examples. Apple primarily lost because they licensed most of the LaF elements to Microsoft (from Wikipedia 179 of 189 claims). The very first hit from your link says that. Try actually using the results instead of just snarkily posting lmgtfy links.

Oh, so today we're mad at Apple for dastardly approving apps that they should have rejected on the grounds of software look-and-feel... because that totally holds up in court, not to mention it's totally Apple's job to ensure that every app has no resemblance to any other software ever published. Got it!

I'm glad you posted, because I think I missed that memo and was still cursing those Apple jerks for rejecting too many apps, because "All Apps Deserve To Be Approved" and "Apple Is Oppressing People With Their Walled Garden."

I could clarify that my first post was talking about the previous post above mine /*
This functionality you propose is available today, although not required (at least in Oracle where I'm familiar). Look into bind variables. in fact, let me google it for anybody reading this who wants to know how to prevent sql injection. http://www.lmgtfy.com/?q=bind+variables [lmgtfy.com] The positive side effect (again in Oracle) is that use of bind variables reduces the CPU cost of parsing SQL statements, so not only should you use bind variables, you should REALLY use bind variables.
