i think the fact that you can distinguish between two codecs does not imply that you can judge which is better in a blind test. sometimes inferior codes do sound better.
this is the correct approach. downloading movies and music is very easy right now. and free. no sense in buying stuff. also, i don't have to overpay for a blue ray player just to watch movies in hd.
That's a question of personal taste. Netflix's documentary collection is large and the quality of titles on the whole is the best I've ever seen, and well worth the $7.99/month CAD that I gladly pay for it. (Ever seen Manda Balla? I hadn't even heard of this film until I saw it browsing Netflix. One of many excellent titles worth watching and recommending)
On a side note, yes I've downloaded high-quality HD movies without paying for them (it's legal in Canada, you know), but Netflix is just easier, and the aforementioned selection so good that I don't know of a better place to go shopping for films on-line. The music industry would do well to bring a comparable product to market (and don't talk to me about satellite radio. The concept is ok, but the sound quality is just too poor to even think about paying any real money for).
and why is cutting of puppies' head bothering you? its not like humans are being harmed. i hate it when people associate human-like sympathies with animals. reminds me of this.
and what is the problem with this? this will solve many problems for us. since the slaves would be sub-human, no problem of ethics. in fact, i hate ethics. what purpose do they serve, except slowing down science?
then don't call it 'ethics review', call it 'better study design review' or something similar. the ethics part of the ethics review is hurting science.
exactly my point. there is not ethics, people! just science, and discovery! imagine what we'd have accomplished by now if not for this squeamish paranoia!

plus a chance to reboot civilization! if you are lucky!
china have the infrastructure for anything.
the computers were infected. the centrifuges were physically damaged. so they need to clean the computers and replace the centrifuges.
mass of photon = zero
although they do have a momentum.
100% true. also, does anybody know of a distro that can be installed like wubi?
i get a 'restart your computer' message every other update.
cpus make mistakes??? this can't be right.

which platform has a 40mb install limit? that sounds stupid.
i too have a sandisk 512mb player somewhere buried. it still works, but now my phone has an 8gb microsd card, so...
64kbps??? that is telephone quality maybe.
as far as i can understand, spotify is internet radio, with ads. so why do people pay for it?
this is the correct approach. downloading movies and music is very easy right now. and free. no sense in buying stuff. also, i don't have to overpay for a blue ray player just to watch movies in hd.
selection is still pathetic

piracy is legal in canada?
no, the audio is actually very nice if the video is 720p.

no, bananas haven't had human dna spliced into them by humans.
we were talking about desktop/laptop share. the wiki link includes servers too.
nothing other than curiosity, and a sense of discovery should guide "what we do *in and with science*".
even though what the nazis did in germany was deplorable, you can't deny the benefits that research provided to modern medical science.
no, you wrote the definition of copyight infringement. that does not in any way apply to this situation.
then don't call it 'ethics review', call it 'better study design review' or something similar. the ethics part of the ethics review is hurting science.
it would improve rapidly if experiments were allowed to occur.
