"And from the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man."
Sounds like cloning to me, and no mention of modifying chromosomes.
Perhaps you're the one who needs the caffeine. That or a course in reading comprehension.
The "rib" is the chromosome. The word in Hebrew is Tzela, which is used for anything bar-like: ribs, the sides of a triangle, braces on a bracket. In the original language, much of Genesis actually coincides nicely with the things that we have learned only in the past few centuries and decades. Not all of it, but much more than even Asimov probably suspected when he wrote "How it happened".
The pay-for antivirus industry makes most of its money in valuing the updates that they send out. Open source at his point can write an antivirus heuristics program but can't get the staff to write good enough updates for known trouble programs.
If someone with illegally-obtained source code anonymously posts the Ghost and other file formats AND posts a credible "here's how I reverse engineered the file formats" document, and others use it to create open-source software to read the software, will Symantec have any recourse against those who write, host, or use the resulting software?
If the cracker posts a document with a clear specification without any code examples, then users of that specification will likely be safe. If there is a single line of code in the spec, then it would be a big no no.
It's just a nice option to have and adds some goodwill towards Intel with next to no cost on their part (and potentially some profit) given the durability of their processors.
Sorry, but Intels are not "durable" processors. I managed to fry a DuoCore2 at 72 degrees in a laptop. This wasn't overclocked, but rather was crunching some serious Matlab. The fan was running at the time.
Contrast that with the Duron that I had up to 108 degrees because I forgot to reconnect the fan wire. I learned of the problem by _smell_. Not a scratch on the thing, it continued to run for at least two years after that. Now, that Duron I did assemble myself with Arctic Silver and the DuoCore was a stock Dell build. But I cannot call Intels durable, at least not compared to really durable silicon like the bottom-of-the line Duron.
You'd have to make their lives a living hell, for sure.
Not at all. You'd just have to feed them toxic religious bullshit and then look for weak-minded individuals to take advantage of. You know, kids, the mentally unstable, etc. Most suicide bombers are recruited when recruiters notice their mental state.
The people doing the recruiting, of course, are coldly calculating and sane. They probably don't even believe the religious bullshit they peddle to their victims, the suicide bombers.
Actually, as an Israeli who is sympathetic to the suffering of our neighbours, I will tell you this: it is not a stretch to understand that our neighbours value going to Heaven over suffering on Earth. They are here to get to Heaven, and neither you nor I can judge their values. We can judge their methods, though.
For what it is worth, it is well established that you cannot hold someone down without keeping yourself down as well. Nobody wants to see a prosperous Palestinian people more than the average Israeli does (I am excluding the fanatic minority, both sides from which suffer). That will only lead to a more prosperous Israel, a goal shared by all Israelis.
Main problem with building it in the UK is that: It would be $10-$15 more expensive and you'd have to wait 2-3 Months to get one rather than 2-3 weeks!!
That, _after_ the thing has shipped 7000 KM from "the far east". 40% more expensive and 400% more time to deliver, if the product is assembled locally in the UK. Need I draw conclusions?
honestly, do you really need to pirate another Creed album or the latest transformers movie? I mean, jesus christ, why dont you read a fucking book or something?
How about if I pirate something created 27 years ago? Or 50 years ago? Or in the year 1919, which should be in public domain but was stolen from me? Can I not steal it back?
By the way, I do not pirate. All my software and media are 100% legal. But I do support piracy for under certain conditions, as described above.
Why the hell do we still delete shit? Just make a huge undo buffer or something. I've got half a fscking terabyte. Come on OO.org, just use it already!
Because it is not up to the application to do your backups for you. Maybe a self-backing up filesystem would be nice, though. I understand that OS-X and Windows 7 filesystems do have that feature.
The things that really scare me are the flight crew and unknown problems.
Right, that was the whole goal: to scare you. Google the Quantas grounding for more information. FUD is an effective tactic when trying to sway public opinion.
Completely wrong. Elevators, which are operated by the public at large and have little need for reducing weight have a 200% safety margin. Airplanes, which are operated by trained professionals and designed with minimal weight as an explicit design goal, have a margin of safety on structural components of about 3-5% and even less on non-structural components. If these cracks are on a structural component then a large wind or heavy landing might cause permanent damage. That said, they are designed to fail non-catastrophically, so it it most likely that the plane will be ruined but no loss of life.
Obviously, you don't understand Iranian politics. The president of Iran has a bit of power. A little bit, that is. Real power rests with the "Supreme Leader", Ayatollah Khomanie (spelling). The Ayatollah draws his power from his circle of Ayatollahs, who run the country behind the scenes. The president is little more than a figurehead. Our own president in the United States has much more real power than the president of Iran.
Most countries' presidents are a figurehead, the real power lies in the prime minister. The only exception that I can think of is the US, and whoever it is who holds real power over the lawmaking houses is not specifically named. That is not to say that the position does not exist.

Most likely it wasn't the processor that 'passed away'
Notebooks have several areas where excess heat can cause damage (especially on most cheap laptops today). At 72F? Not the processor
It's most likely a power source failure, or another area getting too hot and melting the solder
Thanks, I had not considered that. I have no idea where the motherboard on that thing came from.
The pay-for antivirus industry makes most of its money in valuing the updates that they send out. Open source at his point can write an antivirus heuristics program but can't get the staff to write good enough updates for known trouble programs.
So implement the code that downloads the updates.

A colonoscopy would have been less invasive.
Don't worry, the Israelis have taken care of that too:

I find the controls on the NEX-5N to be fine, especially since you can customize the buttons and create a custom quick menu.
How do you configure the shortcuts. Other posters have mentioned that they are not configurable in the Sonys.
I see. Thanks for letting me know.
But my filter bubble doesn't let me see your results :(
Really? Assuming that you are in Australia, are the strikes and grounding filtered?

Aircraft are over-engineered by a factor of 120-300%.

U-2's fly at 70,000+ feet.
And would you tell me how they get to 70,000' from 0'? There is a calculus principal that is relevant here.
Sounds dangerous flying satellites at that altitude.
South Korea still flies the U2.

Radio transmitter antennas typically do not radiate in a perfectly spherical, cow shaped arrangement.
At least the "in a vacuum" part is implicit, seeing how the transmissions are though space.
