I made gunpowder at my High School once. Someone told on me, and as I was riding my bycicle home the cops pulled me over. Asked me if I had a license for the bike (of course not), and confiscated all my supplies. The license turned out to simply be a registration form that the police "recommended" you fill out. And the gunpowder worked. Kind of. When mixed with fireworks.:)
if Hollywood suddenly got the "bright" idea to limit 35mm reel distribution within the next few years?
They would, I don't know, make less money. Yeesh. Like they would go a route that makes less money.
"This Porche is so much more expensive, and all it's parts are expensive, and I don't know if I want to get one..." So DONT. And if you don't want to show the indie films that will still be around on 35mm, change industries. You have a choice on how you spend, or don't spend, your money.
Bohm further proposed that the holomovement I mentioned consists of two parts - an explicate order and an implicate order. I will clarify this difference with an example that Bohm himself developed.
Imagine a jar filled with thick, transparent fluid-like glycerin, a highly viscous fluid. In the center of the jar is a cylinder rod with a handle so you can turn the rod. You add a drop of ink into the glycerin, and the ink just sits there. But when you turn the inner cylinder around, it pulls this drop of ink and stretches it out. If you continue turning, the ink is drawn out into longer, ever finer and fainter lines. Eventually, if you keep doing this, the ink actually disappears completely. You can no longer see it.
Now at this point, it's very tempting to conclude that the order that was originally present in the drop has now been rendered completely random and chaotic by thorough mixing of the ink into the glycerin. So much so that you can no longer even see the ink. However, if you now reverse the direction of the rotation, what you find is that this thin long line of ink will begin to reappear. And as you continue the reverse rotation, it will continue to get thicker and more clearly defined, and eventually, it will completely reconstruct itself.
Now this is a mechanical metaphor for what Bohm talks about. What it tells us is that a hidden order may be present in what appears to be random. That's a very important insight that Bohm had, so I'd like to repeat it. With reference to this example and with references to reality in general, what appears to be random may, in fact, contain a hidden order. And unless your epistemological net is sufficiently fine, or sufficiently broad, you may miss that hidden order.
Bohm call this order the implicate order, because although the ink is dispersed to the point of not being visible, its order has, in some way, been preserved. Or, I should rather say it's been transformed into a different form, but it has not been destroyed. And it can then move from being implicate into what Bohm would call the explicate order, where the order has been made visible and made manifest. So we than have this ink dot reappearing.
When the ink drop disappears, Bohm would say that its order is enfolded in the glycerin. When the ink drop reappears, its order is unfolded back into the explicate order. I am going to be using these terms, so I want you to be come familiar with them.
The question's author specifically asks about desktop machines, and states that there are obvious server benefits to SCSI. It sounds like IDE is definitely the way to go for a single-user box.
Unless, of course, they are using fibre optics to route the light around the body to the other side, and releasing it there. In which case the light HAS been bent. Don't spout off unless you know what the hell they are doing.
Why, yes, I have. I've developed in VB since version 3, for 8 years. I've been a Sr Developer/Analyst consultant for 4, and my last contract made well into six digits at Universal Studios.
I've made use of free threading, owner drawing, and subclassing from VB 4 on. Just about the only thing I haven't been able to do is execute injected VB code in other processes, ala CBT Hooks or VirtualAllocEx/WriteProcessMemory/CreateRemoteThre ad. And the reason for that is VB stores function pointers in tokens, which do not exist in the memory space of the copied function.
The argument "Many things easy in other languages are insanely difficult in the ___ language." can be said for any language. All languages are simpler in one context or another. All languages have their nitch. VB just happens to have a nitch in rapid application design, and has the strength to do 99% of what VC++ does. Heck, even Python (to pull a language you have experience with) has it's nitch.:)
VB compiles with the C++ engine, and has for the last few years. No more p-code (unless you are dumb enough to enable it). Some VB tasks are actually faster than C++ counterparts, due to the different optimizations in the intermediate files.
Of course, badly written code will run just as slowly in both environments... and VB definitely allows for people to write badly. But don't knock the language for operator error.
And, yes, you can write inline assembly in Visual Basic. You just have to know what your doing.:)
Tito would have been traned much more if NASA hadn't turned him away at the training-center gate. Literally. Then NASA had the balls to whine that he wasn't trained. Yeesh.
Believe it or not, my wife just totally took over my computer to play this game. I hooked up a second computer, and we were playing into the early morning hours. The catch: Her character was mysteriously stronger whenever I got home from work.:)
And I should know! I live on one of those streets that have been mislabled. We were wondering why it was so hard to get pizza, then we looked at our King County Thomas Guide (one of the more popular books, and usually very good at that)... and our street is totally mislabled!
You are absolutely correct. I've been running IIS without any extra security, but properly patched, and have watched in amazement as my colleagues shut down their computer and "have to work from home" when they get infected.
Meanwhile, my server is still up, happily rejecting attacks and logging them on a page for me. I've been attacked more than 5000 times by 650 unique servers... it's slowed down to 100 attacks an hour, but for a while there. Yeesh.
One note of caution: Right now, The only complete fix is to format your machine and reinstall the software, then the patch, while offline. People are getting reinfected within 30-60 seconds where I work.

Hey, the guy in charge of the EU currency probably thought that they were the same color! ;)

For only 4 times the cost! :)
Apparently my microwave's door is made out of that bond. It caught on fire while there was nothing in it!
The whole purpose of hacking is to discover new stuff that you normally don't have access to. A self-bult OS would definitely be a worthy target.

Especially since time is not contiguous, but quantized (ala Planck's Time). We are all in God's computer, with a clock tick of Planck's Time. :)
How would you determine what words to use once you get a 404. It's not there anymore.
Could you state a reason for that?
This is so cool...

Of course it's possible!!

Ah, hosting the same content, but not having the same simultaneous connection demands.
Wouldn't 100% efficiency mean that when it comes to choice of colors, you can choose... Black? :)

VHS has actually lasted for over 25 years. I think that I'd rather use the cool technology available in 2020 than ancient DVDs.

The example you give refers to DAO, not VB. BTW: Movelast was fixed in ADO.

I love how our government thinks that Microsoft is a monopoly, then grants these mega-mergers without blinking an eye.
