As someone with very little scientific experience. I would think the weight of something would be expressed as a force and not a mass.
The fact that the mass is much more relevant (for measuring quantities of things) is probably why scientists use g or kg rather than lbs or Newtons when measuring things (using balances rather than scales).
Of course this is my understanding from high-school science, someone more educated can probably correct/fill in.

KDE 4.3 Released

I still don't know what the hell plasma activities are supposed to do, except break things. They don't do anything that virtual desktops don't.
I like KDE activities, and now that they can work with virtual desktops even better.
They allow me to have a desktop with all the files from different folders on it readily available. I love having various stuff I am working on readily scattered about the desktop (but I love working with files scattered on the desktop, so I could be an oddity).
Are there really roadblocks where they test everyone?
I generally thought it was a quick way to look for illegal drugs in plain site whenever I went through one.
They ask "are you drinking" and as long as you can say "no" your waived on after they flashlight your car.
They may ask where you are going too.
I have been through quite a few roadblocks, and never actually tested. It is simply a way to plain sight search everybody on the road (this is probably worse). In fact they brag that they brag about how less than half of their infractions are drunk driving some times.
The problem with the Gateway stores is that they didn't have Computers in them.
They still had decent brand image at the time, and I know people that went to them. But if you have to mail-order your computer, why go to a retail store?
High explosives very quickly release their energy, but it is not a profound amount of it.
I believe I have heard that TNT is not much more energy dense than a snickers bar.
When I tried to do that maths though, I ended up with the snickers bar 5 times ahead, using the energy density of TNT on the energy density page of wikipedia.
How is it with a new web-browser, flash, and many tabs open.
That is where I run into trouble, and it really isn't the environments fault, it is simply all the speed optimization in the browser leads to large memory usage (IMO).
Perhaps, but support of gay marriage is quite high, and people identifying as religious is very high. I think the overlap is not as extreme as one would think.
Most gay fear I see is men afraid they may catch the gay. Somehow an unwanted advance from a guy is bad for them, but when they hassle the uninterested straight ladies it is A-OK. Probably because we (men) are all actually assholes.
I think most people can rationalize any prejudice they have without the help of religion, but maybe I am wrong.
Most religious people in my area (NE united states) subscribe to the separate spheres interpretation of science and theology. It works a lot like double-think. They pray using the theological side, get their values using the saner part of theology, and then accept science as functioning.
Where a religious book or edict conflicts with obvious science (old earth, evolution) God simply works in mysterious ways, and the books can be loosely interpreted as a metaphor for how he did such.
When an edict such as no birth control that flies in the face of common sense is said, it is simply wrong.

Wouldn't it be better to properly translate petitio principii rather than argue over the meaning of english words?
I like ribbons personally.
Thanks, and I wasn't really trolling.
I would think Google apps is fine.

I know that KDE 4.0 widgets were quite bigger (approaching 5% I would say), but I found them quite attractive, so I wouldn't say clunkier.
This was during the beta, when I had kcalc-kde4 and kcalc installed side-by-side.
I think they are trying to shake the K everywhere thing.
I mean Gwenview? really? that is quite confusing and has to be intentional.

I think you can configure OpenDNS to not do it if you setup an account.
The US ones are far tastier though.
11th grade English where I went to highschool.
I'm confused as I am pretty sure I can disable them on T-mobile, but perhaps I am wrong.
And a special keyboard with 2 "t" buttons.
But I don't remember emacs working that way at all (it has been a while though)
I remember a great AIM client for it (tnt I think)
This was quite useful for me one time when I had a computer crash and had to use my old 486.

looks like 10/09/08 10:32:33 pm to me (probably international time?)
but what do I know.
What is it's energy density though?
And the fact that you can make Snickers explode is irrelevant to the argument that energy density makes explosives.
I don't think this is true.
High explosives very quickly release their energy, but it is not a profound amount of it.

I am willing to bet dropping a few good shots on popular wikipedia pages would be a great ROI.
Keep the resolution low enough that if someone really likes it they need to buy from you (for print anyway).
It just doesn't sound like a terrible value to me, but I don't really know. I do know that $5000 is nothing for a little publicity, if it comes.

Xubuntu is runnable with 256MB of RAM.
Not great, as Firefox + flash will take its toll on such a machine, but otherwise it is great.
In the early releases you could switch between the sugar, or a more traditional environment too.
If you cut flash, and used a lighter weight Gecko browser I bet you could get a nice environment, except for maybe the CPU being too week.

Perhaps this is unique to my area though.
Funny, I remember MS as some of the early adopters of new Apple APIs, with Office even being a heralded launch for one o0f the version of OSX.
Additionally IE for OS9 was a decent browser.
