The vacuum of space is a terrible heatsink. There are three modes of heat transfer (conduction, convection, radiation) and you can only have radiation because the other two don't work if you're not touching anything.
Thermos bottles have a double wall with a vacuum in it because it's so thermally non-conductive.
There is still that terrible wmode bug that's been fixed in the firefox upstream but hasn't made it to the ubuntu repository. I've been following the bug in the tracker, and nobody thinks it's a high priority thing that flash will segfault firefox when using wmode.
I've lived in London. Your system is worse than ours. While we've been ballsing it up recently with texting charges like this article about, per-text rates on pay-as-you go phones are much more than they are here. Why? There's no reason for the different carries to lower the amount they charge for incoming messages. Not only that, I don't see how they could do it. At least in the UK, they don't have specific prefixes for the different network, so for the wireless carriers to change their incoming prices, they have to get everyone to sit down and negotiate what it would be.
And I think in terms of calling, having each side pay their half makes things work out so much better.
The rest is off base or plain opinion. She, like McCain is hammering the Republican party for letting spending get out of hand. She is very much against big government. The rest was just pure opinion and partisan attacks.
My two examples, and what sealed it for me:
We've had one of the largest increases in spending _ever_ in the past 8 years. Well, we did it, it can't be undone (try getting anyone to repeal the prescription drug benefit which is a ~10Trillion liability). McCain was sensible for long time and wanted to get rid of the bush tax cuts because it doesn't make sense to be cutting revenues when spending is skyrocketing. He changed his mind and now supports cutting taxes without a clear plan on what he will cut to lower spending in step (It's reagan all over again! Get the tax cuts through, let the spending cuts stall, increasing the deficit). Where is the fiscal responsibilty we're supposed to be showing?
Palin (though I don't really give a damn about VPs, a lot of people harp on it) supported the "Bridge to Nowhere" until McCain started harping on it in the senate (irony!) I don't see how someone who supported a $250 million bridge to a town of 50 can really claim to being in the camp of reigning in spending. Keep in mind that this is the same Palin who pushed through a $14.5 million sports complex for a town with an annual budget of $20 million. (Oh right, Palin's a hockey mom and her boy needed a place to play)
I've been a conservative for as long as I can remember. The current republican party does not represent economic conservatism at all. Please point out where I'm full of partisan attacks and opinion. As far as I can see, McCain just doesn't fit the bill.
If you and someone else are standing on opposite sides of a border and you shoot the guy on the other side, under what jurisdiction should you be charged?
IF you and the merchant are in another state, sure, your home state can't charge you for sales tax (although I had to pay US income tax when I was working abroad once, that sucks)
But, you are in your home state while you're shopping at a company in another state. While everyone would like it, saying "I wasn't shopping here, I was shopping over there!" doesn't negate the fact that at least part of your actions were don in a state that taxes it
to all the people that say facebook is worthless and everyone should revert to writing emails/sending smoke signals.
I studied abroad in brazil. I'm an american, and I met a really nice girl from paris. We hit it off and were friends, and when we parted ways, she told me that her email was firstname.lastname@some.domain. Problem is, I could never get her email address right (I knew her name by sound, but couldn't figure out how to spell it). Later, I got her name from another friend, but her address was linked to her University and she had graduated since then, so it was a dead end.
A year and a half later, facebook opened up to france, and she joined the site. She looks at the group for the international students in brazil, found me, got my email and called me that day.
We've met up in paris twice since then and it was awesome. Can you see the usefullness I got out of it then?
What's the problem? Only a moron would use idiotic social networking^H free hosting site like Facebook^H Tripod as a replacement for email^H web hosting. What the hell is wrong with today's young people anyway, that they're so happy to sign up to be serfs for corporate interests, and give up any privacy they ever had? Instant messaging, social networking sites^H ISPs and hosting sites are all corporate-controlled. Anything you do on there is subject to their rules, no matter how silly they may be. Anything you say can be seen by them. There is no expectation of privacy. If you want the freedom to say what you want, you have to use email. Except that today's stupid young people think that email^H self-hosting is "old fashioned" and only for talking to "old" (over 30) people.
I also think it's deliciously ironic that you use Mailbank/netidentity to host your personal email. Netidentity is also a company, no?
I don't get why the hell people get so worked up about people using facebook more and more. There's tons of reasons to use it. If you don't want to, that's fine, but the ridiculous vitriol by some people just confounds me.

"Young" people don't give a fuck one way or another. Maybe you can't see the utility of facebook/other social networking sites, but there _is_ a lot of it. I can give a prime example.

Suppose there is 1MeV of energy in Ob particles, in order to produce them however, we must have nescessarily already provided 1MeV of energy, so you wouldn't gain any energy (in fact, you would be gauranteed to lose energy since neither the production nor fission machines would be 100% efficient.
It's like the idea of hydrogen for fuel. Hydrogen doesn't exist in its unbound state naturally (it's bound to things like oxygen). To produce it, you have to put in a bunch of energy. Later on when you burn it, you get energy back, but less than you put in. An analogous situation with Ob particles.
The reason it shows up in the google cache is because their site looks at the referrer and provides with google with the answers. It's called cloaking and google normally blacklists sites for it. They shouldn't show different things to google and to users.
"You're a male of the species, and fairly much optimised by natural selection for this, so a retaliation is not in kind, it's an over reaction, chances are your punch will cause much more lasting damage than hers will. "
Right, and that's why I said that in a majority of cases, I would never think about hitting a girl back because I understand that I am much stronger than most (I know, a generalization), and I would hurt a lot more than most.
However, if someone clocked me in the jaw and laid me out or broke my nose or something, then it isn't an "overreaction" for me to hit her back because she can apparently punch as hard as I would. My deference was due to the assumption that she couldn't. Once she does, and starts to injure me in an equal way to how I would, my assumption (and my deference) goes out the window.
"It's exactly this behavior which has me ( and I believe much of the *rest of the world* ) worried about a large, fading, greedy empire. "
I don't see how you got from men hitting women to there, but feel free.
I'm a man. I was raised and would never hit a woman, no matter how much she yelled at me or if she started hitting me weakly. But, if some girl clocks me in the jaw and knocks me on the floor, you better believe I'm going to retaliate with the same.
OP was saying we should act the same way to terrorists. Some guy sitting in a cave and saying "death to america" doesn't warrant us going to WW3 over it. Some guy throwing rocks at a tank doesn't warrant getting a cruise missile launched at him. Blow up some innocent civilians and I would hope someone would annihilate him/her.
Basically, if the cables are scrambled, you will need to have a cable box (or two, if you want to record while watching TV) plugged up to your tuners. Then, you can use an IR blaster connected to your backend to make the cable box change channels

exactly. protons are convenient because there are a LOT of them around us.
Suppose there is 1MeV of energy in Ob particles, in order to produce them however, we must have nescessarily already provided 1MeV of energy, so you wouldn't gain any energy (in fact, you would be gauranteed to lose energy since neither the production nor fission machines would be 100% efficient.

Yeah, binding energy is what we harvest in nuclear fission or fusion.
if the submitter just graduated from school, he could go to the UK on a BUNAC visa (bunac.org). I did it and it was pretty awesome.
wow. just wow. that's the biggest brain fart I've had in a long long long time.

Yeah, I can see it on the google cache, but if I go to the link directly, it doesn't show up.
The reason it shows up in the google cache is because their site looks at the referrer and provides with google with the answers. It's called cloaking and google normally blacklists sites for it. They shouldn't show different things to google and to users.
They probably give the first few out for free then lock it up, if I were to guess.
It's pretty scummy though, and I would think that google would banhammer them for showing things to the bots that people (humans) can't see.
I went here, and it doesn't show the replies for me.
