    I'm not seeing a "view" menu because the menu bar is disabled. I found the option somewhere else too - the "Menu Bar" option is also available in the "options" submenu of the Firefox menu button.

    No need to downgrade. In the title bar at the top, right-click on the space to the right of the "Open a new tab" button [+]. Click on "Menu Bar" in the context menu.

  17. Re:You can't go c but you can go faster on Can Relativity Explain Faster Than Light Particles? · · Score: 1

    Tachyons and neutrinos could well be the same thing or one a subset of the other. c is the speed of /light/, as in the speed of another type of sub-atomic particle - the photon. Assuming photons and neutrinos are not the same particle, has anyone measured whether these particles have a difference in mass? Could the neutrino in fact be smaller in mass/size/whatever, and thus able to travel faster through the test medium?

  19. Re:The one that needs to be done on A Klingon Christmas Carol · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Already done. Threw together an initial translation in 2001, concentrating on translation and syllable matching but not rhyming anything.

    Reckoned if any language had a translation for "Mama, I killed a man, Put a gun against his head, pulled my trigger. Now he's dead." Klingon would.

    It's published on the net, but I reckon it's rather rough. I may consider returning to it and cleaning it up.

    A punch to the face can under some circumstances cause the death of the victim. Therefore a response up-to and including deadly force is entirely proportionate tyvm.
