It is high time we started replacing our fossil fuels with organic fuels. At that point CO2 emissions become non-issues since there would be no net increase in the carbon levels of the enviroment.
Props to you, but a small nit. Since fossil fuels are organic compounds, the term I think you meant is renewable organic fuels (like corn alcohol). Fixating the carbon we cause to be released is the responsible thing to do IMO.
I read the article quickly, and my perhaps incorrect resummarization is this: If the left side of the body is generally controlled by the right side of the brain, and it is the right side of the brain controlling motor functions, why is it that only about 10% of humans are left-handed? This statistic implies an association, not causation, between speech and right-handedness as left-hemisphere brain activities. The research is trying to use chimps, who don't speak as we do, to look for any causative evidence.
when you're doing really good at a game, you sorta enter a "zone," where the game just sorta plays itself (no Star Trek reference intended). Things just start happening a bit faster than you can consciously handle, but you still pull it off. When you've either won or lost, it can be hard to remember exactly what happened along the way./rings buzzer
What is "instinct", Alex?
I'm not a hardcore gamer, but I have been there and it's fun, yet kind of scary when you actually cognate about it afterwards.
I'm just looking forward to the day when connecting to the internet means putting an advanced wifi antenna (if they can ever beat the routing problems) on your roof and using an ad-lib connection which uses other peoples antenas to span the distances, and forgo the monthly cost all together. A one time purchase of hardware to create a network that is self expanding and self upgrading.
I'm going to encorporate it into my time machine to lessen temporal drift. Right now I have to make stopovers every twenty or so million years for temporal correction, which is a real pain (of course, this really depends on how accurate a time I'm looking for - am I looking to meet Greblok just a few years after I left him, or do I just want to watch dinosaurs?)
All you need to do is upgrade your main space-time element. I would lend a hand, but I'm completely booked for the next two centuries.
Wouldn't this also ban Adblock from Firefox? From the sound of it, it would, and if ads are forcibly viewed, it sounds like they'll forcibly allow adware and spyware soon too.
It seems as if it could ban blocking spam, do-not-call lists, etc.
Personally I think this bill is going a bit too far.
And i guess C, get nuked by someone with the capability (nukes and missile range)... which is... hmmm... the Soviets? Iran? No... North Korea? No... China maybe? Aliens? Terrorists? Anyone?
has this blog entry on the conditions working for EA.
Excerpt:
Now, it seems, is the "real" crunch, the one that the producers of this title so wisely prepared their team for by running them into the ground ahead of time. The current mandatory hours are 9am to 10pm -- seven days a week -- with the occasional Saturday evening off for good behavior (at 6:30pm). This averages out to an eighty-five hour work week. Complaints that these once more extended hours combined with the team's existing fatigue would result in a greater number of mistakes made and an even greater amount of wasted energy were ignored.
I've used a LaserJet 4 Plus at home for c.2 years now. The gods alone know how many pages it had printed
Actually if you force the printer into test mode, it will print one or two test/info pages, and the page count will be on printed on one of those. Though it may be the page count since the toner cartridge was last (re)installed.
It is ironic that the US worries when other countries choose their leaders on religious issues but Bush is actually courting that.
I am glad I am not the only one who noticed. It was Bush's own words during the Presidential debates that (essentially) God wants Bush to deliver freedom and democracy unto the world. /Congrats, Mr. Bush, for turning the battle against terrorism into a religious one.
After all, it is the Brits who are known for creating the concept of dimensional transcendentalism, thereby making it possible to stuff a generously sized James Earl Jones into Vader's helmet's voice box.
The trouble with the American Political Process Is that the finger pointing begins before the facts have even been established.
but I am just not surprised any more with the finger pointing. I think it come from the tendency in US culture to reduce issues to two sides: not-rich vs. rich, us vs. them. Having only two classes makes it necessary to deflect blame before the other side accuses you of dropping the ball.
I have been using the nightly build from 20041024 to fix a browser freeze when trying to print with 1.0PR.
This version has a new Save Page As dialog which is more cumbersome for me (read: more Windows-like) than before. In order to traverse directories, you have to make another click to open a dialog box, but then at least you can see the whole path.
maybe this is calling for an extenstion to restore the old behavior.
"Meanwhile, the US postal service inspectorate said it was highly unlikely that 58,000 pieces of mail had just disappeared."
Having heard this kind of thing before, I managed to fish out a couple references from the newsgroups: 1 and 2.
Anyway, our county clerk is strongly partisian and has pulled questionably legal stunts before, so I have planned to vote in person to reduce the chances of voting fraud.

With companies like SBC and Verizon expanding their high speed services, I would think there could be a few job openings.

Actually that's the first thought I had. I assumed that this data could be twisted into a backdoor way to identify (RIAA) copyright infringers.
...and also to keep track of youthful men not registered with Selective Service.

Yep, it's happening as we type: see Community Wireless project.

sorry for the duplicate. It's late for me today.

Finally got around to checking. At least with linux firefox-1.0, jre1.5.0/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so seems to be working.

Iesu, not Jesu. Latin had no "j".
Version 1.5.0 of the runtime kit is available. I am currently upgrading it so don't know whether there are any problems.
Just replace the strings with the appropriate flavors:
/pub/fedora/linux/core/2/i386/
>pwd
Ergo, replace
$releasever --> 2
$basearch --> i386
I used such a hardwiring to update RH7.2 to 7.3 ever since the former was dropped by Fedora Legacy.
When browsing a handful of the mirror site, I found only one with the DVD iso. Download speed is currently 200 Kib/sec.
Also, many mirrors haven't opened up the permissions on the directory yet.
Or continue to allow a steady labor force to wander across the southern US border.

Never heard of XSS until now (like me)? Here is one summary one summary of what the cookie theft looks like.
