I'd definitely be able to tell you what happened to something as significant as a passenger seat.
Yeah, sure you could. However, if you were accused of murder, the first thing you'd do would be to shut your mouth and tell no-one anything about anything (including car seats), besides your lawyer of course.
OOD, OOP and Java... currently it's the way things are going. (Someone will correct me if I am wrong)
Let me place some emphasis on the OOD... learn the theory... learn the design patterns...
When you first encounter OOD try to forget about programming all together. You must begin to visualise objects and their interaction with the world around them.
If you can get a good understanding of OOD then OOP flows along with ease....and for the original question...
Don't forget to run linux as a platform for all your coding......after all, Java is write once, run anywhere!!!
It's peculiar that neither of you "neuroscientists" took the opportunity to point out that neural signals are not electrical impulses--they're electrochemical state changes that propagate along nerve axons at a pretty sedate speed (measured in feet per seconds), and not any form of electrical current akin to what flows through a wire when you connect it across the poles of a battery (or pass the wire through a magnetic field, or whatever). The current in the wire travels quite a bit faster than 60 fps...
Boom Boom......just like a snare drum with sand on it, particles move into shapes and patterns depending upon the vibrations from the snare. Last time I checked, the "electrical impulses" in the brain were caused by the differing movement and dispersion of ions... shake shake... move move... boom boom... ion pattern!!!
Wait until your bosses boss comes to visit. Present the report to your bosses boss.
Make sure you bypass your current boss. Your current boss won't do a thing about it while he has power over you... bosses aren't about the company/organisation/entity... they are all about themselves and having power over other people.
Seize power.
I hate to give the example of Hitler and the nazis... but... a soldier once wrote a letter to hitler telling him that his troop commander was a fool and asked for hitlers help in removing him. Hitler simply wrote back and said something like "then you must take control". Just remember: "do no evil".
If people don't know how to properly Administer their Linux distro's and the software and applications they are running on them, they have no right to complain about the stability/instability of the distros THEY CHOOSE TO RUN.
I just thought I might repeat that point as there are too many Linux "experts" out there whose only real skill is being able to run the installation disk.
In the long run it theoretically evens out. What you loose on the roundabout you gain on the swing. Large retail chains will deduce the number of items purchased per transaction, MOD this number and price accordingly.
The smallest increment for cash is 0.05 The smallest increment for electronic transactions is generally 0.01 I'm not real sure what happens to those 0.005 dollar transactions or if they are possible.
For me it's MIDI hassles and the fact that I can't get Cakewalk stuff to even install under Whine, let alone work.
Bingo!
MIDI is a major sticking point. Rosegarden has made an brilliant start on implementing it into a usable GUI format with a piano roll editor, and links into Virtual instruments. Unfortunately, the whole MIDI specification has not yet been implemented. I refer to the full functionality of xRPNs and CCs specifically. Editing of CCs may need to be cleaned up as there is not much room for fine tuning of individual events, in fact its a right royal pain in the ass to edit CCs and the GUI needs some work. There may also be the need to implement other time code based sections of the MIDI protocol as well as other less used protocols like DMX. MIDI is a well documented protocol. Its not exactly difficult to understand the Rosegarden code and fully implement MIDI, its just a matter of time. The code is quite well written in a easy to understand format, with only three differing styles by three of the major coders. Without the easy to use and full implementation of MIDI in a GUI editor, there is no real incentive to swap away from windows based tools like Cakewalks Sonar.
For those coders who don't know, MIDI is the modern day equivalent of traditional music notation, so it really is imperative that this part of the project is completed.
At the moment, the best tool for the job is Sonar/Cubase/Protools. Until Rosegarden has a complete MIDI implementation with an easy to edit CC section there will be very little incentive for anyone to switch.
In order to use surveying techniques you require a line of sight to your target. This is where hesco bastion and other type of walls come in. Once again you showcase your arrogance for all to see.
Ummm, so how do these sandbags stop line of sight... did you make them 20m (60 feet) high? Perhaps thats enough to stop people looking in, but the practicality of building 20m walls all over the place is well... not all that inviting to the locals, distrust, can't see it - hence fear it - sort of thing...
Like I said, why do idiots like you keep trying to teach me things that you're utterly clueless about? Is it a genetic disorder? Lack of medication? What exactly makes you think you're qualified to comment?
If you are indeed an American, and there are others like you, may God help your country... cause you certainly aren't. What makes me qualified to comment, I'm not an American, I don't get fed the same propaganda as you.
Except we can triangulate the launch site, meaning within a couple minutes we can have artillery coming down on the guy's mortar tube. And ours is a lot more accurate.
So, he fires off 30 mortars within 1 minutes then runs very fast. Within this second minute most people could run 200 meters... where is your accuracy raining down now? A 200m radius is a large area, and you want to simply flatten that whole 200m radius region with houses and all, nice way to win hearts and minds... then again he could fire them from the desert, in which case you'd have a good chance to splatter him.
The optimum strategy for terrorists has always been to pre-plan the attack, drive up to a fairly well concealed location, set up the mortar quickly, fire off a couple rounds, and then run away as fast as possible. Without accuracy this technique is like a big game of russian roulette. WITH accuracy, it becomes a viable technique for inflicting heavy casualties.
Of course they pre-plan, DUH. Like a game of russian roulette? Currently everyday life in iraq is a game of russian roulette, so whats the difference? Lots of inaccurate rounds, but one or two hits... Dresden?
You don't actually believe that crap, do you?
Yes, I do.
Listen, from your writing it's pretty obvious that you're RTFO, but I'll explain this to you anyway: it is impossible for the US to lose the war in Iraq. There's only 3 options:
1) They stay, finish the job, and assure victory. 2) They run away. 3) They stay, and Iran and Syria get involved, thereby expanding the war past Iraq's borders.
Keep on believing GWB and his ilk if you want... finish the job? Just what is the job? The only job that seems to be occurring at the moment is the creation of hatred, death and destruction.
Of course it's near impossible for the US to loose the war, after all, the conflict is taking place half way around the world and it's not very likely that the Iraqis will be able to counter attack like the Russians did to the Nazis. So you'll call it a stale mate?
Oh yeah, the US didn't loose the Vietnam war either... keep on telling yourself that Silvester-Stalone/Rambo was all about describing your victory.
I doubt Iran and Syria will get involved, and if they do I can see the US running away faster than they ever did from Vietnam. Hell, the US probably won't even be able to destroy their surplus military hardware in time... its a bit hard to push it off a boat in the desert!!!
So far it looks like most of the civs are pushing for option 2. Make no mistake about it though - the military CAN win the war, it's the civs that want to lose it.
Can win the war... hehehe... yes, if not being able to loose is a definition of winning, then by all means, you have already won.
Why do civies consider themselves qualified to comment on military matters?
Need I remind you that it is the Iraq "civvies" who are currently kicking the US armies ass?
Need I remind you that it was the Vietnamese "civvies" who kicked the US armies ass?
Or are you just too stupid to understand how ignorant you are?
Why is it that military types don't understand rudimentary surveying techniques? Didn't military school teach you historical ways of determining distance? Were you all sucked in by the innovative technology salesman? Did he tell you that all the old ways of determining distance were now redundant and your enemy would be at a disadvantage because they didn't have the new improved faster working innovative GPS live enabled morter round?
While it is an advantage to be able to send one mortar with great accuracy, a similar effect can be achieved by raining down a dozen slightly inaccurate mortars... Dresden?
No, there's really cool thing called "math" which, when combined with those grid coordinates, can tell you the exact angle and deflection at which to aim your mortar tube in order to hit a friggin' porta-shitter at 1000 meters.
Is that the same "math" that is used to determine distances by "old school" methods? Methods that have been used in warfare for hundreds of years?
It's no surprise that some of you Americans are getting your arrogant asses kicked in Iraq.
Then jump in the car and drive to those locations and see how much they have changed in the last few years of being stale. I bet not much. BTW, how often does the courthouse change?
...and what stops someone from doing this in the first place? I mean really, some good old fashioned recon can get you the same info needed for an attack on a courthouse. Heck, even getting military base info such as where transports/tanks/etc are parked is easy enough with a little bit of work.
Grid references, so the enemy is using GPS guided missiles now?
hmmmm... I use VLC in Linux to play movies etc, I had to install it (as the applications that come with Xubuntu are terrible to watch video, and ubuntu and on any other distro you MUST download all the "restricted", "no open source" "devil" "god forbid them" whatever codecs). Oh! and the installation was a time consuming... even to make it play the same types of video I *used* to play with the same program on WINDOWS. So yeah, nice troll there.
Those codecs are proprietary so they can't legally be distributed with Ubuntu. And whoever you downloaded them from (even the windows version) is probably breaking the law. So its not ubuntu having religious problems with them, its that they chose not to break the law. OMG! Ubuntu is not breaking the law to make things easier for you! The bastards!
If you live in the US then you could be breaking some law. Not all countries consider this to be breaking the law.
i've been using vista for about 3 weeks now. under heavy usage (i.e. running a bunch of apps, nntp downloading, unzipping some archives etc..) xp does seem speedier, but other than that, vista rocks.
"heavy usage"???? That sounds more like Joe six-pack consumer usage.
they've addressed little nagging issues , for example hitting f2 to rename a file highlights the filename but not the extension.
Thats been in Nautilus for ages.
the administrator account is turned off by default
linux distros have been doing that for quite a while now.
defender runs automatically
If you install it on XP it runs automatically as well. Sounds more like they have patched vista so that defender is installed by default.
defrags are set up on a weekly schedule by default
defrag??? Obviously they still haven't fixed their file system... or the defrag is there to give techies something to do.
i've managed to muck it up a few times installing software
apt-get or yumex or emerge...
they've done a great job with this o/s.
You mean that the marketing division has done a good job at convincing people to upgrade, and this still remains to be seen in the share price.
Slashdot Mirror
Yeah, sure you could. However, if you were accused of murder, the first thing you'd do would be to shut your mouth and tell no-one anything about anything (including car seats), besides your lawyer of course.
In other words, it is one big Peer-2-Peer network.

Elad is only one example of a cross over artist.
There is a classic example with skazi and the chemical crew (if you can call them psy-trance).
Raja-Ram has recently been involved with quite a few releases that include heavy metal riffs into his electronic sounds...
Full on psychedelic trance is the new age electronic form of heavy metal.
Many artists are cross over.

A: The used car salesman actually knows what he is selling you.
No.

How many civvies have died? Or are they all enemy combatants?
You can't spell and you have very little comprehension... its probably a good thing you military types get to remove yourselves from the gene pool by blowing each other up... It's just a shame that intelligent people are caught in the crossfire.
