50 Years is only a short while. So yes, there are challenges, but we shouldn't be surprised that we didn't solve them in such a short period of time.
Regarding the radiation issue. How about we create a magnetic field ourselves? Energy requirements may be too high, I don't know. Just an idea...
Science can not explain everything and is limited because it is created by humans.
Religion is created by humans as well, but can *easily* 'explain' everything. I don't see how "created by humans" would be an inherently limiting factor.
BTW, I wasn't even saying that science can explain everything. I just think that one should not immediately resort to believing in the paranormal, just because there are things you can't immediately explain. That just means science isn't done yet.
So, just for my understanding, you were science-minded at first, and then you saw something that scientists are actually researching and now you're all into paranormal stuff? Why? Just because something that *you* can't explain, does not mean there is no explanation for it. That's what science is all about!
FYI, Ogg is the container, Vorbis is the sound codec and Theora is the video codec.
H264 tools aren't free, as the codec is patent encumbered, so you have to pay license costs (one way or another). Officially, you can't use x264 either without paying royalties. So, yeah, I'm opposed to the use of H264 in open works such as wikemedia.
I actually prefer it above the DLNA server in my NAS. It's highly configurable, extensible (although I can't always get every plugin to work), and has support for a lot of TVs and other front-ends.
Except when your own 4K TV has crappy upscaling. The content has to be upscaled one way or another, except if you watch it at original resolution, meaning 3/4th of the TV is black. If you ask me, 720p is enough for most real life content, and maybe 1080p for animated movies. 3D can rot in hell for all I care.
While your post has nothing to do with time travelers whatsoever, it's still interesting. I saw a documentary recently called "Something Unknown is Doing We Don't Know What...", where they had random number generators around the world. Previous to important global events, they seem to be generating less random numbers, that is, less homogeneously distributed. My explanation is that it has something to do with some kind of local entropy, because there are less states where that event happens then there are where the event doesn't happen. But how that somehow influences the RNGs beats me. If it isn't complete bullocks to begin with.
I liked the documentary, but it failed miserably in even trying to explain the psy events the 'scientists' were researching.
Well, as with most things, there isn't a single, objective truth. Some people want hi res to have more screen real estate, some want hi res to have crisper fonts and images. And then there's some that don't want hi-res but rather high fps in their games (fps in your FPS).

There, FTFY?
Or am I?
No you didn't.
Jacksonville (FL) hosts a run tomorrow. Ironic! Any chance of getting this boycotted?
Is that true? I though the double jeopardy clause ruled this out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...
I think we'll need to examine those Back Peters a little closer. It's seems their half-life period is almost up.
Would that be robot robot homes, or just normal ones? BTW robot homes are already quite well described in Futurama. Ample closet room, in any case.

I wonder how Ubuntu / Canonical will react, with their Ubuntu One cloud storage solution.
100 - 65.1 = 34.9

FYI, and not to be a grammar Nazi or anything, but only your first use of the word 'there' was correct :)

So did my Kindergarten teacher.

Yes, that's the one. I didn't know its name, but now I do. So, thanks :)

Show me the stats.
Why is this modded Troll? I also use X's network transparency on a daily basis, and I think it's a good point.

Hmm, that is impressive. Thanks for doing the math. I was (obviously) going on a gut feeling there :)
