Correct me if I am wrong, but wouldn't the memory glitch count be raised by the extra gamma radiation? How then would you be able to isolate the neutrino-errors?
Depends. You could spin it fast enough so the centrifugal force would create a fake gravity on the equator, but on the poles the gravity of the star would win. If you don't spin it you'll fall to the star everywhere, depending on the diameter of the sphere. For a ringworld the same concept would hold, except there would be nothing on the poles. I'd advise spinning it, whether it's a ringworld or a Dyson sphere. People like to live in the light and sunlight is free on the inside.
To be able to comply with the injunctions one should know about them. If they want the whole country to comply they should tell everyone. Assuming the injunction is against telling people that "Mr Giggs is fucking a minor celebrity" they would have to tell everyone. This has made the injunction useless, because now they have told everyone themselves. It's more of an advanced public secret.
On the contrary, Wikipedia can now double as a wonderful dictionary for some specialized vocabulary (math notions, proper nouns, etc.) by looking at the interwiki links.
I second that. I use wikipedia a lot to translate words from Dutch to English. If I look the dutch word up I can check whether it's the right explanation, so I'll get the correct translation once I change languages.
Wider screens means more palettes etc on either side of the app you're using.
It's time the sw manufacturers started to use that space more efficiently. MS Office's ribbon bar can't be moved to the side, Windows' task bar sucks on the side (dunno about 7 but XP's sucked, far to wide). Chrome and Firefox have their bars locked to the top. I want them at the side.
Or some "less-than-legal" films with the top and bottom black bands in them, so they'll fit on a 4:3 screen. Once it's on my HD screen the PC adds black bands to the right and the left, creating an utterly useless black bezel. Luckily I haven't seen them in a while.
In the cinema's I go to I get a full screen message that I can text to a number (with a predefined message format) to complain. Discretely, anonymously and direct. Supposedly the manager looks whether it's a real one and if it is (s)he removes the disturbance from the theater / haves the problem fixed. I have never needed it.
Netflix isn't really causing me trouble in the Netherlands, but they aren't showing me video's either.
We're not sure you will be able to sign up
for Netflix from your area.
You will need a valid U.S. mailing address to sign up for Netflix. Also, you will only be able to watch instantly if you are in the 50 United States or Washington, D.C. It looks like you are outside the United States. If this is incorrect, please contact your Internet provider for help. We are sorry for any inconvenience.
But, to some extent, it's also what makes the internet what it is: many free sites with funny/insightful/useful content. People live from advertisement and provide content in return
Part of the money for/. is generated by advertisement. (Yes I know there are sites that don't ad any content but have advertisements nonetheless. Those are not the sites I am referring to.)
Wouldn't that be legally fightable? I always thought the difference between "in warranty" and "out of warranty" (but within the expected lifetime of the device) was that "in warranty" the supplier had to prove you damaged it by using it in a wrong way and "out of warranty" you had to prove it was their fault. IANAL, I am curious. This may be country related, so I'll define that I am Dutch, I learned these definitions in the Netherlands.
I'd be FAR more concerned about the gang-bangers in the next neighborhood than the local hunters. . . ..
If all members of the banging gang are consenting adults I have no problem with a gang bang (assuming it's not in my sight or hearing range and the "goo" isn't in places I use). Everybody has their hobbies.
Failed attempt? Not with me, I lolled a bit. He even points to the tilde, giving me hope he is joking (and jealous). I just hope he remembers no society is perfect. Couldn't give you the imperfectness of Sweden by the way.
Do you know if it 'remembers' the decision the next time?
Yes it remembered. FF would start at the same place each time. Winamp didn't, but that's one of the few disadvantages of that program: it will not always reopen where you put it, even with a default single monitor setup. Dunno if it was Nvidia or Windows that remembered though. Photoshop and OpenOffice even remembered their task bars were on another screen as the main program.
You can program! You just need the right motivation or teaching to do so:-)
I am planning to learn RobotC to program my NXT properly. I still believe I am not intelligent enough to do a decent job, but I'll just bump my head (and bump it hard, these things are expensive and the default software is not efficient enough for the things I want to do)
No. The sheer volume of IPv6 adresses means we can make simple tables. Start with x numbers for the continent, then y numbers for the country, then z numbers for the ISP and so forth.
If an American sends a request to Europe the American router only has to check whether the x numbers of the address are European to know it has to go to Europe. The European router can sort it out when it gets to Europe. This router only has to look at the y numbers to find out which country it should go to. The country router only has to look at the z numbers to find out which ISP it belongs to. You ISP doesn't even have to know every IP address you use, your in-house router should fix that. You have your own range of addresses and you can simply assign them as you wish. This way the American router doesn't have to know who has the European addresses, for it can find out where to send it without even parsing the complete address.

A friend of mine had a script running that let others control his christmas tree, his TL (filtered against fast switching) and some other lights, he had a webcam on it to show the data. We tried to mess with him, but he redirected us to some cheesy pron site. His girlfriend asked him to point the webcam somewhere else than the bed.

My cinema sells alcohol alright, but it's Heineken and they claim it's beer. I disagree. At home I can fetch a decent Hertog Jan from the fridge.

It sounds like these private planes are an ideal weapon for terrorists! Ban them!
Use this chart and a bushel of bananas.
You can probably build a Mindstorms robot to do that, instead of doing it by hand.

Well, it's better than the default: take something very ambiguous and present it as truth.
On average people have one boob per person.

They already have a way of doing that: require fingerprints for passports.

So war is just a protection, they wanted to prevent us from running out of IPv4? Seems like we need more war, stat!
