I believe that it is a natural need that is encoded in our genes.
I too have a natural need encoded into my genes. I note from your earlier post that you're in the top 5% of income. This places you in a perfect position to help my satisfy my genetic requirements for a dual 2.5 GHz PowerMac.
I absolutely, 100% support your views. I hope you can bring yourself to support mine:)
I have used the FCC rules to defeat my former apartment manager. I attached the dish to a brick chimney since I did not have a balcony. They fined me. I complained to the FCC, who deferred their fine, then fined them TRIPLE the amount they fined me, and cancelled my 'fine'.
The only 'practical' restriction is that the dish must not be a hazard to passing pedestrians or vehicles.
Err, wrong. In fact, thats a completely misunderstanding of the law.
No matter who your landlord is, the law gives you certain rights in an apartment. You have the right to install a satellite dish, and the FCC will heavily fine anyone who tries to stop you, even if your lease specifically forbids it. If your landlord is your university, it makes NO difference. This is because the law is constitutionally driven, and this right is INALIENABLE.
The FCC has the same ruling ability in regard to use of unlicensed spectrum and the installation and use of equipment.
UT faces heavy fines and the spectrum users get automatic deferred penalties from UT in this very clear cut case.
This guy had two possible doners, critically ill in hospital. instead of hoping one dies, this guy was asking for public prayer and support for these people and their families. Now you might think he sucks because he asked for something and got it, but this man had a choice of Do This Or Die.
I would be proud to have my liver in this guy. He respects human life.
Note: He didn't upset the "level playing field" either. He was given low priority for a liver because of the nature of his illness. It's fairer to say he evened the playing field up a little.
Also why even bother making these regulations when even high schoolers can make homemade rockets using gunpowder from fireworks?
Shut up, man! What are you trying to do? Next thing, Men In Black will be snatching firecrackers from kids because they could make a sound weapon! Argh! Shut up! Shut me up too!
If I were the artist, I wouldn't call that $60,000 that's charged to me a ripoff, I'd call it a pretty good investment.
You've obviously never examined a real record contract. Mine gave me 2% of gross, with various expenses being deducted. What this arrangement does is allow the label to increase sales at the expense of the smallest player - the artist. Imagine you get your $30,000 percentage, your $15,000 performance royalties, and an invoice from your label for $220,000, 60,000 of which is you buying your own CDs. Think it doesn't happen? Most successful artists owe their labels several hundred thousand dollars for a good portion of their contract. Amazingly, they break into profit a few months before the typically 4-yearly renewal. This means a) most artists disappear in a few months anyway and are left with debts and b) those who break even or profit are the top of the top and the label is desperate to retain them. They are then important enough to negotiate much better terms or walk. Don't even get me started on how they screw you on "artist identity"...:/
Yes, boundary layer, not laminar flow. Sorry, I did this at college over 20 years ago, and it's all a bit jumbled now.
What you describe explains for me how the forces move the head relative to the airflow, but they don't explain how the head moves relative to the platter. Could you maybe enlarge on this a little, so I understand it better?
Reference? I don't know of any hard drive where this is the case. The only purpose of the breather hole is for pressure equalization. The heads fly due to the aerodynamics of their physical design-- just like an airplane wing.
Ummm, no. The heads are stationary relative to the airflow. They move across the platter or are stationary. They are not shaped to be aerodynamic, and actually cause a lot of air turbulence when they move.
What makes the head float over the platter is laminar flow. This is the tendency of air to stick to the platter. This creates a molecules thick layer of fast-moving air that generally spirals out from the center of the platter to the outside, turning in the direction of the platter's rotation. As this flow is faster than the surrounding air, it draws the head closer to the platter. As the head gets very close, the laminar flow slows, until equilibrium is reached and the head floats stably.
The primary reason why most hard drives cannot be used above 10,000ft is because air pressure gets low enough for tolerance limits to be reached.
The primary purpose of the vent hole is to allow the drive to equalize pressure. Variations of pressure cause the case to flex, which can affect the head alignment against the platters.

If slashdot allows editing of posts, it creates a couple of huge problems. One moderation. A post may be moderated one way, then edited and moderated another way. Once a post has had moderation, the content either must not be changed or the karma must be reset for the new content. People could then reset negative karma by editing their posts. Second, if someone has replied to a post, the post can't be editable because it can change the contect of the reply. Yuck. Respectfully, and totally offtopic, but that's what I think.
A charity can be exempt from taxes under 501(c)(3) without having received a letter of determination from the IRS. A letter of determination is proof of eligibility, but it isn't required for eligibility.
As usual, the press is waiting with cameras and lights as Linux comes ashore. The enemy, Microsoft, can see the whole thing on TV, and as usual, that will not make the slightest difference to the outcome of this skirmish.
Russia does far more launches than the US. Russia does them much more safely. In manned launches, they have something like a 99.9% success rate (one launch mishap in over 1000 launches). The US has had two mishaps in about 115 launches.
3. first company to bring risc out of the server room and into the living room
Now, this has already been settled in court. Apple claimed to have released the first Risc PC, oh, two years after Acorn released a home machine actually called the "Risc PC", based on the ARM6 RISC processor. The court stopped Apple from making the claim, and awarded a nominal sum of compensation.

It's a cobalt blue KitchenAid toaster with bagel button. I'll happily sell it to anyone for $15,000.
It doesn't slice bread.
If someone DOES buy it (Steve Jobs, are you listening?) I will use the funds to develop a new Mac OS X app for independent filmmakers.
If she's a virgin, it SHOULD be tight...
Ummm, do you have a link for that? It sounds like JUST what I need!
That may be the moral of the story, but it certainly isn't the spelling of it. :)
Yeah! Good job he didn't get re-elected!
Any member country of the European Union allows citizens of other EU countries to vote in their elections if they are resident in that country.
You're wrong. Just a FYI.

I have one, by Philips. It replaced my series 1 when the modem died (as they are prone to do on Series 1's)
Hehe...
