  1. No, it was not determinism that quantum theory killed. Under Heisenberg's incorrectly named "principle of uncertainty," the exact position and momentum of a physical system cannot be measured a at the same time, but that doesn't mean they are undetermined, just that we cannot measure both of them at the same time. The term for it is Unschärferelation, that roughly translates as "unsharpness relationship", but due to Slashdot's lack of support of Unicode at the time, it was not possible to keep that in the original German, so the translation "principle of uncertainty" was adopted [source].

  2. I they are so resourceful for fighting Russians, why where they so afraid of them?

  3. They are not, but whom else could they turn to? The Swedes can't fight Russia themselves. It's too big.

  4. Trump (...) [i]s not bought and paid for. They don't have him in their pocket(...) He already has money. (...)

    I don't know if that was your intention, but you just gave people a reason to vote Trump.


    Disclosure: I don't vote in the US.

  5. Re:$300 to read books? on Amazon Kindle Oasis With 'Months' of Battery Life, Redesigned Body Launched · · Score: 1

    You can buy some actual books with that money, which would be a better expenditure, because after read, they are lendable, donatable, exchangeable, and resellable. Most ebooks I read are old enough that I can get them for free, legally, so the lack of those 4 features will not bother me.

  6. You're such a grammar n**!

  7. Especially those about their mothers's sexual habits.

    You must be paying more than a couple cell phones with your bill. Or the S7 is overpriced. No, I can't believe in free, if it's something coming from a telco. Anyway, it was very smart of you to take the Gear, because you must have paid for it someway.

    Sorry, but that is not how the world works. It's not only the substance of a proposition that matters, the form is also important. That's because most people think that important matters must be serious. When you listed tiger prey as if tigers lived in Africa, you transformed your argument into laughing stock. And because your argument is now laughing stock in the form, its substance will be disregarded. Therefore, you lost. LOL L00ZR!

    Your 'free' gear was not free, no matter what they say.

    Why would one go to the Dark Web to look for porn besides for bestiality, child porn, rape &c. IFAIK, streaming is not so fast on Tor.

  12. There is child porn in the Dark Web, and drug selling, and murderers for hire, and more child porn.

    No, because when I researched there was none.

    Microsoft working with Linux, Firefox sucking, "IE is a real browser", the president of the US in Cuba... I get these days the SCO suit against Linux is the only thing holding the world together and preventing the hell from freezing over.

    I'm going back to Konqueror. Flash didn't work there and that was the problem that had me leave it. It comes with builtin ad block, gestures so I don't need any plugin. It even gives you an option to stop animated GIFs.

    Yeah, I hate apps. My next phone will run Windows, as now it can play Ogg Vorbis files.

  17. Selective breeding is artificial selection nonetheless; it favors features desired by humans and sometimes even renders the race or variety created incapable of naturally reproducing (see the giant-breasted turkeys).

  18. I can't see the point in cloning cows. Artificial insemination works well enough, is less expensive, and they will need a cow to serve as the mother anyway.

    It's just you. The world is not completely natural any more and we have been practicing artificial selection for ages.

    Not to mention that Linux was intended as a 'toy' for hobbyists. If the author of the article got anything right is that new technology not always get to be used just as intended.

    It is surprising that the Japanese invented a tech that solves problems in Brazil. The minimum amount of iodide in salt recommended by the FDA is the top amount accepted in Brazil. A small increase in the 2000s caused an increase of incidence of Hashimoto hypothyroidism. Excess salt may not seem like a problem for you, but where I live high blood pressure is rampant.
