I am quite sick and tired of ALL those "specials" that simply rehash the various theories about these structures. Bubba say the stars aligned in the year 3000, JimBob says it was merely a fluke.

Actually, Hawking is really shoddy. Issac Asimov does it better than most and had many REAL degrees to back his writings up. Hawking's Brief History of Time was a waste of paper. He is one circle talking gangsta rappin mo fo. But his grasp of the speculative is clearly superior to most normally confused people. Hey Stephen, we all KNOW that theories are just that, unproven guesses or assumptions. Why did it take you a whole book to say that? Got attention deficit disorder in addition to your other ailments?
Sure. let us exploit this, burn if for fuel and Use up Oxygen we would normally use for breathing. This stuff will be enormously expensive to mine. A total dangerous experiment at 800 PLUS feet deep in the ocean. Sure, plants tend to replace Oxygen when they are able to get the necessary raw materials to extract the Oxygen, but how can we assure this will happen? Desertification is already in progress worldwide. Fouling the oceans will merely reduce the amount of sea borne plants that can help produce/liberate more oxygen for life processes. Anyone want to convert to a sulphur based existance?
There were several BBS doors that provided for online auctions way back when. BBS Auction Mart, Auction It!, Auction Online to name a few. This is prior art by any definition. This guy is a loser, and a lawyer. Who would have thunk it?
As usual, every other country in the world calls it one thing, and the US calls it something else. Why is that? The main reason we call things differently from the rest of the world is that we pioneered the field of artificial respiration. Remember the Iron Lung? We made them cheaper , less bulky and they performed a medical function. Respiration only really occurs at the cellular lever, but the dictionary tends to use the common usage of a word, not the correct usage. This is how language changes over time, and certainly not for the better. Common usage dillutes the accuracy and meaning of the language. Ventilate, we do that with our buildings in the US. We use Windows(tm) to accomplish this. Breathing would be a better word for the process of inhalation and exhalation. The reason the rest of the world does not like our words, it is simple, they are jealous and do not want to give credit where it is due. JMNSHO
Wait 2 minutes between posts, what the hell is up with that? I get penalized for fast typing? How lame can you folks get? Maybe you should buy a Mac and learn about real computers.
. . FreeBSD, OpenBSD and any Linux flavor should run on a PC. There, back on topic, sidetracked by a lamoid rule.
As a former Apple fan, a person who actually shelled out the cash for a Lisa, and then sold it as fast as I could, I just have to say this... I am now a Whitebox/Windows/Linux user. Apple has been catering to an effete corp of impudent snobs for many years and the deeper it gets, the more it smells. I can get a better machine, that I can upgrade for so much less money, it is almost unbelievable. I am not mentally challenged enough to require a ONE BUTTON MOUSE. . . My advice is to sell your Apple gear to some poor unfortunate individual, take the money and get a decent machine, slap Linux on it and enjoy! Do it today, don't delay.
Wow the aggregate of all these supposed services would cost $250.00 per year...such arrogance! I get all that Apple talks about today for FREE! What audacity! It must be that providing email and the like is too hard for Apple to do effectively. This can only mean that Steve Jobs BlowsGoats(tm). It can mean nothing else. Yes, the above poster is correct, only five percent of the market. Let Apple and it's users die a peaceful death. Cease running Apple stories. It is NOT news. Pure and simple.
F#/OCaml/ML is a mixed functional-imperative programming language which is excellent for medium-advanced programmers Sounds like double speak to me. But I gave up programming 20 years ago, I was an assembler weenie.
"As the WA Internet Association owns and operates WA-based exchanges "which most ISPs exchange information on for a low cost," Reynolds said the ultimate aim was to "enforce its spam policies for users of that network" and if ISPs chose to ignore the Association's policy "deny them use of the network."
This seems like a reasonable posture to take. Just like SAPM uses my resourses and my leased resources, these rude tresspassers against chattel need to be reigned in. In fact, there should be a United Nations resolution owtlawing and form of Unsolicited Commercial Email. Opt-in is the ticket, BUT only Opt-in for each individual business, not some asshole selling lists of people who opted in for some other , unrelated email junk. I say kill them where found. But I may be wrong. I never SPAM anyone, although, I could do so very easily.
Use what we have now and resist using those technologies. Thw web will continue and they can try to collect tolls, but if you do not use them or adopt them, they are dead in the water...
People ALLOW the prices to rise. If you do not run out and knee-jerk purchase computer stuff, Then you will have more leverage at the checkout counter a little later on in the season. RESIST the urge to upgrade, instead, learn how to maximumize what you have. Gamers, I realize you are hopelessly addicted and would hate to be jitter on the trailing edge of technology, but get a grip. IDIOTS buying new stuff fuels the spiral of higher prices. Manufacturers can resist the price changes too. They have the BUYING power to say NO! So do you! 3D graphics cards are NOT 3D. When will you technoweenies realize that? They will not be 3D until there is a large cubical chamber with multiple layers of LCD displays allowing for PSEUDO 3D effects. You are silly to believe otherwise. Without depth, there is NO 3D. Physics people, physics. Yes I run antiquated systems and they work just fine. They are last years stuff. BFD. You junkies need to control your habits. Businesses need nothing more than email, word processing and spreadsheets(if that) and rudimentary web access. EDI? Everything is Electronic Data Interchange. Buzzword challenged?
They get the name in 1996 and the City Of Barcelona takes 7 years to defend it's "rights"? Bullshit. Fuck Spain. I understand international trademark etc, but waiting 7 years? They are lamoids that deserve to lose. The judge is a moron. Too bad he is paid with public monies. Wait, you say they tried to extort money from the City. I say again, fuck Spain. Too stupid to be awake technologically in 1996. Pity.
I am find it real hard to even believe that the MBA degree is worth anything. Let us look at what it says, Master of Business Administration. Doesn't this sound like a glorified secretary? If the degree imparted any real knowledge, then the holder of such a degree should be able to run his/her own company/business. Since this is obviously not the case, why then does such a degree exist? Management, management comes the chorus! Most MBA's go to work fo SOMEONE ELSE, rather than starting their own company. What kind of mastery does this imply? None, IMNSHO. Working for someone else may pay the bills, but I know of no business where a newly MBA'd individual would be allowed to MASTER the business right out of school. Work expierence is what counts. This guy is a ME, yet he is not doing ME work from the get-go. This looks like someone who can pass tests and get grades, but who is NOT working in a field for which he studied to be a part. This guy seems confused, someone told him that you get an engineering degree coupled with an MBA and you can go places. Look where he went. That fact says it all. Valued contributers to any organization are retained, or re-trained. Real world seems to be intruding on the fantasy world once again.
Dreary way of life if you ask me. What ever happened to the scientist wanting to better humanity school of thought? Did it fall by the wayside? Do you think Erlich, Pasteur, or Koch made a bundle from their discoceries? If you do, then you need a brain transplant, and I will not tell doctors of this century the proper way to perform such delicate surgery.
