The number system is built using powers of 1, yes? The right-most column is 1^0, then 1^1.... 1^64. In these terms, the 100...0000 I've given represents 1^64 (which = 1 ). Now if the number I've given (100...000) was base 2, we'd have a much larger number indeed.
Look especially at the amount of time and money some companies spend in developing MSAccess databases. They won't want to port those to a free alternative....
www.sciencenet.org.uk (google cache) says: "A coin dropped from the [Eiffel] tower would reach terminal velocity after about 350 metres. At this terminal velocity it would be travelling at about 80ms-1 (179miles per hour; 288kmh-1)and could probably hurt someones skull."
There are no calculations given, so feel free to take this with a pinch of salt.
I'd give you the direct link, but I had to fish this out of Google's cache as the site's already over quota.
You also get this with Opera, just hit "Fast Forward", or the space bar, or use the right mouse gesture and you're away. Not that I'd know about this in your particular sceanario, of course;-)
Okay, a few more words....
Yes, you need to use Windows, and yes, we can't really trust the government (the next government, or maybe the one after that) with our personal/sensitive data/pr0n, but isn't it a good thing in principle that this is happening?
Ah, what she meant was a general statement of "you can't eat food here". You sure as hell can't buy food there, after all.
As it happens, I don't blame them for asking you to move on. If I was a food joint owner and I I saw a competitor's food being eaten on my premises I'd really want to tell 'em to fuck right off. I'll admit I'd phrase it differently, but I'd cerainly ask 'em to move along.
Yeah.... jet tell that to the police when they come after you in the body found in freezer hunt.
"Detectives are hunting the husband of a woman whose dismembered body was found in a freezer in south-west London.
The body of Tae Hui Dalton, 36, was discovered at her home in Woodside Road, Kingston-upon-Thames, by a member of the public, police said. She lived at the address with her husband Paul Dalton, who is now being sought by police. The 33-year-old man is described as white, of slim to medium build, 6ft tall and has brown wavy short hair. He has blue/grey eyes and a mole on the front left hand side of his neck. It is not thought Mr Dalton poses any danger, but police are advising people not to approach him. Police are awaiting the results of a post-mortem examination which was due to take place on Thursday."
Well at least you can save money on contraception, or not worry if your young lady forgets hers - all that heat'll probably make you sterile for a short while.
I wonder if this could be used as a selling point for geek couples whjo don't want kids?
Here's a list of who's still using XFree86. I may be very out of the loop, but I'd only heard of one of the Linux based distros. Regarding the BSD distros, only two seem to used XFree86 - are the others all on X.org?

Sorry, you need to get your facts straight and not rely on urban legends for excuses about why you speed.
Tom.
That's probably because this is the Microsoft knowledge base.
Sheesh.

See what I mean?

1^64 = 1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
(I think that was 64 zeros I typed....)

Who else reads this and smirks, thinking "Ah yes, another project that looks great but won't ever be used to create a worthwhile product".
Design and artwork aren't all that's required, you're forgetting story and gameplay.

Because it's a sign that local government is getting clued up about computers.
Having to use a Windows client does indeed suck. Maybe Apple will see the potential damage to its business and push for a diversity?
