not if you are still getting their after you left. then while you are merely their faster then if you traveled at light speed, but you will have experienced significantly less time than other non-space travelers, you will have only curved space time not looped it which will not destroy causality, just they same as walking throught a worm hole to the other end of the universe but at the same point in time would not destroy causality because you would not have gone backward in time mearly traveld faster then C.
they would probably veiw stellar travel as a affront to their divinity of choice sort of neo-amish life style and before it is wide spread enough to be hijacked like an airliner we would already have multiple off earth settlements/colonies. more likely is religious groups going hiring a starship and go off creating a new earth away from the unrighteous infidels and heathens who commit the great sin of looking sounding acting or thinking differently. maybe he can do what happened in the hitchhikers guide and trick all of them into going on ship A while the rest of us go on ship B after.
nope it had solar scops that funneled in plasma from the surface of the nearest star for power. And if i remember my stargate lore well enough the destiny was built before the ancients discovered how to build a zpm. that is why the gate is built out of quarts and Naquadah. but as i recall we eventually just got the Asgard to give us their engines.
They model protein folding, cosmic events such as the big bang, creation of black holes, stellar collapse and creation,they are used in modeling atomic bomb blasts, and better electrical grids, they are used to work out highly complex math and number crunching such as finding holes in encryption schems, they are used for analyisis of high speed partical excelerator data. Pretty much anything that requires lots of compex math.
uh why the hell would you try to stream raw hd video with a tool meant for remote desktop management? Your argument doesn't hold. and you are very right about one thing you would use a file or streaming media server for serving up video, but you would mange it with X
(b) "Accompany [the binary] with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give *any third party*, for a charge no more than your cost of physically performing source distribution... the corresponding source code..."
Sounds like the best way to get out of source code distribution is only distribute it on hand carved stone tablets with the source engraved and charge the cost of physically performing source distribution. I'm surprised that MS hasn't tried that yet they could have there own linux distibution an no one would bed able to afford the free source code.
We won't loose all of our documentation and media, we will have it in the future though not form the media companies but from the pirates that break the drm and backup all of there media. A geek can set up a nix based media server with raid and zfs and will laugh at bit-rot. when a disk dies he will go get another and the data will be copied from the other redundant copies. when the technology changes and video audio picture and document formats change his copies won't have any drm to keep him from converting between formats.
so in ten years when you are having to pay per person per viewing at home for each episode MASH you already bought on vhs, dvd, hd-dvd, bluray, itunes, digital-copy, zune marketplace. don't say we pirates didn't warn you. we will gladly say we told you so as we sit back and watch any thing we want free, when you come ask for what ever show you happen to want that the studio decided they don't want to release again for another few years.
you might want to check the kitchen again your oven might have one if it is digital, your microwave probably has one. hell my blender has one. they may be crappy 8 bit ones but they are cpu's. (then you have got your FreeBSD toster)
They would need to have more than control of the R&D of the wifi chips they would need control of laws of physics. emitting a wifi radio signal requires significant energy expenditure because you are emitting that energy.
Show's how little you know, the year BEFORE iphone was even announced, samsung released a little device f700. If you compare the 2 side by side they look very similar so on topic of who copied who first, that would be apple copied samsung.
The original iPhone was announced on Jan 2007.
The Samsung F700 was announced on Feb 2007 (a month after Steve Job's demonstration) during the 3GSM World Congress, and released on November 2007.
The Samsung F700 may have had rounded corners, but it was substantially thicker and had a sliding keyboard. The UI running on their Croix OS did not resemble the iPhone at all. When the F700 was announced it was immediately compared to the newly announced iPhone by the press.
no but the palm pre did. and as for a phone being thicker they have been getting thinner since there inception. the combining of traits into one phone is obvious evolution in the technology.
Hell i could probably send you a script and you would have a usable desktop after running it. let me set it up and yes it will be usable after an hour (unless you have abominably slow internet) complete with more eye-candy than windows or apple ever though of and an app for whatever you could want. Need MS Office it runs well in wine last I checked or I could put it on a VM. If your here you are probably not using IE so you can probably have a your choice browser already, opera, firefox, chrome, all run of linux. as for chat Pidgen chatcleint runs linux, As does thunderbird for your email. VLC for media if you need something little less utiliatarian and more polished than you can use banshee, rythmbox, Clementine, or any of a dozen others. for torrents take your pick deluge, transmission,,,. other than nich stuff it can be done on linux.
ubuntu is fine one you rip out unity. Kubuntu, Xubuntu, Lubuntu, Ubuntu with mate desktop, all work great just because unity and gnome are a flaming pile doesn't make the rest bad. apt-get purge unity && apt-get install anything-else(except gnome3) problem solved.
if i remember the Star trek explanation in i think it was the Moriarty episode correctly it used a mix of forcefields holograms replicators and transporter technology. My bet is every one had something different projected at them and when moving used telaporters when they got to close to a wall, person or other such obsitcal.
I know it is bad form to reply to ones own post but why am I modded troll?
everything i said is true.

still no religious motivation mentioned

not unless christians worship santa claus

HD on a 4 inch screen is like expecting Klipsch loudspeaker performance from a pair of ear buds. Now I'm not saying everyone will have the same experience, but I'm already wearing reading glasses (began at the ripe old age of 28) and am happy to be able to focus on anything within 2 feet, I'm not about to care about HD on a puny display.

i think captain archer will look at him kinda funny if h's wearing a red shirt.
so that would be 3.05397727*10^9 bigmacs according to wolfram so a couple days worth of food produced by McDonalds daily around the wold.
energy hog? not when compared to eating a Jupiter with every hop

because no-one like "Mega Explosions 12" they can point at piracy and claim they're the reason sales are down.
