The one thing that remains a thorn in the global-warming religion's side is that the IR absorption is almost at complete saturation right now any increase right now is pretty much meaningless, to make a difference now we'd have to get back down to pre-industrial levels of 100 ppm; and the countries with the worst environmental programs are exempt from the goals right now.
it's called Opportunity cost, to their point of view, they have not only lost income from the music not purchased, but the time you spend listening to the un-purchased music is time you might have spent listening to purchased music!
The only way you could get it to work would be to get the liberals, who watch liberal biased news, to mentally equate the *IAA's with big, evil(TM) money grubbing business instead of some kind of performer's circle-jerk. Maybe if we made the RIAA into baby Harp seal hunters!

I'm pretty sure that the kernel's version of GPLv2 has been modified to remove the "or any subsequent version of the GPL" which means no automatic update of GPL versions.
Honestly, you don't need to be a sociopath in order to kill or maim other people. By assuming that only a sociopath can kill, you get the 1 in 30 ratio, but in reality is 1 in five can kill , 1 in five can't kill at all and the rest will go with the program if the rest of the team is engaged.
I'm a KDE fanboy, but he's right gnome has kinda floundered around for a while. I enjoyed the KDE/Gnome wars of old, it kept everybody on their toes trying to out-do the BadGuy(tm)s on the other side. Maybe Gnomemenistas will come out of their comas now that there employer gave in to the darkside and is in league with Mircrosoft.
I'm not a gamer, but I really got the same impression when it started and the "final resolution" definitely pegged my "weasel-meter" and I was thinking "those weasels are only going to give them a month rather than a year" then I got to the bottom and saw two weeks! Two weeks free to compensate for defamation and libel, give me a break; most the gamers I know would be on the verge of going postal for being called a cheater. Two weeks is an insult and much more likely to be viewed as provocative rather than compensatory.
I'd think that T' = RT(1-T); where T is temperature and R is the function of all inputs, outputs and specific heats will describe what's happening. I'd also guess that R is between 3 and 3.54.
The expected payoff was to show the soviet union we could put really big heavy things up into space very precisely which implied that starting a thermo-nuclear war with us was a bad idea because we could shoot back. You'll also notice that we are still here.
Technically you have to be 18 to use a charge card to pay for deuterium oxide, some might question larger quantities like the 5L bottle for $2000.00; I'm sure that North Korea was trying to by much larger quantities than that.
Patents cover a method of doing something, in software it's a method of setting the machine state to do something; so technicaly the vendor and the end-user would only be violating the patent when the program is running; so yes it's my understanding that software customers are liable for patent infringement by running the programs using the infringing methods such as SCO v. Daimler-Chrysler or SCO v. Autozone. I will say that a software company that sues customers for patent infringement tend to not be going concerns for very long because it's hard to steer a successful company when you've got your head stuck up your ass. IANAL ect.
Microsoft has 50,000 mouths to feed. They dont care what we think of their morality. Neither do black widow spiders, first they act all sexy, next they screw you, after that they kill you, finally they feed on your corpse! I don't think Novel is going to live long enough to be anyone's prison bitch
Linux plays well with Mac osX, with Solaris, with the BSD's, if Linux doesn't play well with windows it's because windows is artificially making it hard for anyone else to play with them. All they have to do is look at the RFC's and the source code and they can find out anything they need to know about playing well with others. If that's not enough they can always jump in the mailing lists and IRC and ask a few appropriate questions.
I actually think that Microsoft will pull a fast one and try to ride atop Linux like Apple rides OpenBSD. I don't think that's it, M$ knows about BSD, they've had BSD code in windows, probably still have a line or two in there somewhere. What they are really trying to do is split Linux into factions. Does Novel/SuSE stick with GPLv2 to keep M$ happy and alienate the GNU crowd who switches to GPLv3? If they do, they don't get the updates that is going to be GPLv3ed, they are now frozen and going it alone except for the kernel if that stays version 2. I expect that the Miguel and the monkey-boys are thinking about a mass defection now that their employer is in cahoots with the MicroSatan, they always were a militant bunch. If that happens Novel might have trouble going it alone anyways.
Even if the above doesn't happen what does MS get, well they'll probably get to say you don't have to switch to GNU/Linux to get your favorite tool stack like PHP and Apache for web, anything mono can do.NET can do and more ect, so you might as well have windose and a stickey-GUI admin interface too
Well it's the plant thing, when they get light, they tend to take CO2 out of the atmosphere to make more plant-stuff and give off oxygen. Giving off Oxygen is nice and all but the important thing is taking out the CO2, when it hits about 1,000 ppm the air feels "thick" and it's hard to breathe. Given the rate we're dumping CO2 into the atmosphere, that's what I'm worried about, Global warming is probably a distraction from the real problem.
Well acutally OSHA requires air to have at least 19% oxygen so 101.4 kPa X.19 puts the lowest limit at 19.3 kPa
Potential space habitat and EMU atmospheric pressures range from the Earth sea-level value of 101.4 kPa (14.7 psia) to as low as approximately 25.5 kPa (3.7 psia), and potential oxygen concentrations range from approximately 20 percent up to 100 percent. Atmos Pres
to see what it would be like to breathe on Mars without a pressure suit, try exhaling through a hose exiting in water 8.3 feet deep.
Won't the water boil off pretty rapidly in a near-vacuum at 30 degrees C? Definitely, in organic we used buchner funnels to filter materials with a vacuum assist and it was impressive to watch water boiling by being heated with body heat because I was hold the flask in my hand. I think that on Mars a person might actually be able to freeze to death no matter what the air temperature is because each gram of body fluids boiling away take 500 calories with it. The depth of skin that is actually able to hold fluids is pretty thin and the difference between dry skin and a steady dripping isn't much.
Same thing occurred to me; it just might be that on Mars the biggest hypothermia threat isn't from the air temperature, but from moisture on you skin boiling. They might be able to heat the air to 100 C and you could still "freeze" to death in a matter of minutes!
24% lead crystal does a respectable job of blocking X-rays, but the truth is even without seeing the schematics I'd suspect that most X-ray thru gamma would just go through the mirror like it wasn't even there. The angle of incidence in the X-ray-gamma region is pretty shallow; it's more like getting light through a fiber cable rather than bouncing off a mirror.
Why pick just Mars and Venus? Probably because we've studied them long enough and close enough to actually have some real data. I don't think we've managed to land anything on Jupiter, Saturn or Neptune.
Most of us have never had a problem with dependencies, on my distro i just use pacman and it gobbles everything up I need; in most modern distro's it's pretty much a simple operation. Pacman even upgrades across major releases without a problem. I hear Gentoo's package manage is nearly bulletproof and debian's apt-get is legendary.
The last times I had any issues with dependencies was when I was compiling some pretty exotic applications; some perl modules got intense for a while as well.
