its all a matter of how far the body is from earth. if its two bagilion killometers away, even a slight nudge should do the trick. if its a kilometer away, you will need to change its heading by 5000km or so, very quickly.
pretty bad, actually. I encounted two sex mini games. the regular gf sex mini game, and one when you are supposed to hit a chick on the ass, in perfect timing. the second was pretty easy, because there is an indicator to when you should press the button, but the regular one is too hard.
I did some checking about the size of the torrent. its probably contains the hash of all the chunks, as well as the tracker address. this means small files will have small.torrents.
about waiting 3 more seconds.. its probalby 3 more seconds per file, at least. multiple files can be downloaded simulaniously of course, but still, it will probably more than a 3 seconds delay per page.
1. if I am not mistaken, the size of a.torrent file is a function of the number of users sharing that file. 2. torrents take a while to get started.
for those two reasons, http is way more efficient for small files such as images and html pages. what's the point in downloading a 30K torrent, connecting to peers, and than getting a 10K jpg?
torrent is efficient for large files, where the relatively constant overhead becomes irrelevant.
They just go online, that's enough. plenty of ip scanners out there that randomize an ip address, assume its a vulnerable XP system and attack. they don't even need to run explorer to get infected.
word economy would collapse if the gas would cost twice as much as it is now. oil is not just used to run car, its used to generate electricity, to make plastic, to run many factories. an analogy would be the human body: which contains 70% water. now, you don't need to loose all 70% to die, 10-15% would be enough. read this fine article for more about it. http://www.lifeaftertheoilcrash.net/
any resource with an unlimited supply is better that any resource with a limited supply in the long run. sooner than later, the limited supply would end, and the prices would exceed the "expensive" prices of the unlimited supply resource production. if hydrogen fuel costs now 20$ a gallon, its only because of in efficient methods of producing/storing it, this will be solved. but nothing will solve the oil problem other than a time machine.
why, its very useful to have RSS in the heart of the system. imagine the possiblities:
* RSS system log: whenever a line is added to the log, you will be able to see it in your IE 7 Browser!
* RSS memory monitor: you will have an RSS feed of your memory status in the last 24 hours! you will be able to tell how much memory your computer used, all from your IE 7 Browser!
* RSS file system: Saving files is too boring? now you can save them as RSS entries, and watch them from your IE 7 Browser!
* RSS buttons, checkboxes and tabs: instead of the silly outdated over-rated gui widgets we have today, we will have RSS widgets, which will allow you to know which buttons of an application was pressed, when, and why - all from your IE 7 Browser!
now, tell me you are not excited! Microsoft, inovates the future
1. since the default prefetch for Firebox (see about:config) is true, its correct that the stats of firefox are somewhat inflated if the hit counts is all that matters. but hit count is not the right way to count how many users are using a particular browser anyway: the count should be done per IP address, per browsing session, so all the prefetch hits of firefox will count as the same IP address in the seam session, and therefor will not bump the count. something tells me that most of the statistics are based on such a method (or similar) anyway.
2. if Opera identifies itself as Explorer by default, it means Internet explorer stats are inflated - yet, he choose to point the finger at firefox. its funny how Opera chooses to identify itself as IE to fool sites into thinking its IE connecting, than bitch about low Opera usage statistics. make up your mind, you knew the consequences when you choose to chose to identify as explorer!
pardon me, but that's bull-crap. if you will show a man from the 18th centuary the things we can do today, the amounts of energy we control - it will blow his mind. terraforming needs a lot of energy, but when you start thinking about tasks in the magnitude of changing a planet climate, you soon start thinking about energy sources in the magnitude of planets. the human race will not use fossil based fuel for long, there are other forms of energy that we can use - like: * solar energy trapped in orbit, concentrated, and beamed in a focus microwave beam. * magnetic containment fusion based energy. * geo-thermal energy. and others. in the not so far future, we will be able to harness those sources. further down the road, my guess is that the human race will find a way to hook directly into sun's core and leach vast amounts of energy straight from there.
so it will decide to start defraging while i am playing Doom 4 or Duke nukem fornever, ah? and I won't even know its happening, right? yes, the significant FPS drop will not ring any bells, no doubt.
Also, I wonder how introducing something such as symlinks to an OS with millions of programs written, most which assume files do not exist in more than one directory will help the "It just works" mantra. imagine a circular dependency of directories, (or even simpler a directory that has a link to itself), and a poor unaware program trying to scan on of recursivly. A classic "It just crashes" scenario.

I wonder if using this installer help getting rid of the rest of their products. question is, how does one removes the uninstaller when his computer is clean and shiny?
it may come as a shock to you, but MOST of the people alive today do not speak English as their mother's tongue language. in fact, most do not speak English at all. it does not mean they are less intelligent THAN you.
you see, thats where the problem starts for me. if I don't watch this much tv, what I pay to the cable provide goes to buy what you watch. I am not getting my worth of money, instead I am balancing the budget for the cable provider.
