Bennie Smith is entirely correct -- if ad blocking becomes standard in popular browsers, that will be the end of free content on the web.
No, he's wrong, but people will stop paying for
his service (which is why he cries) and do what slashdot does, disguise advertisements as real content. Users can't block those kind of ads
and still get teh content they want.
Well, smooth zoom certainly doesn't work for me with
firefox. It redraws/reloads the whole map each time, no matter how small a movement I make on the zoom slider thingy.
If it is airtight, then you have a problem. The passengers would be sealed in the capsule. Any safety system on this type of elevator MUST bring the car to an exit point in a timely manner or the passengers will suffocate.
Excellent! This will be great for parties.
Now, if the system is air tight and holds the vacuum well, but the capsule isn't, then.... oh dear, you could turn somebody inside out!
The passenger capsule is lowered by turning off the vacuum turbine and allowing normal air pressure to return to the upper section of the tube. Thus, if the power fails, the passenger capsule will simply travel to the bottom floor in a normal fashion.
But this doesn't mean that cutting the electric power will "turn off" the vacuum. It just means that the vacuum won't increase. If the system is
well designed and air tight, nothing will happen.
If the system isn't completely air tight, then
air will leak into the vacuum and the capsule will
slowly lower itself (barring any mechanical brakes
kicking in).
I horizontail version could be fun as well, specially if you where to pressurize the opposite
side to the vacuum.;-)
Actually, in relation to that, what happens when your spamfilter marks such an email as spam. I guess you can say that's a major false positive.
Nah, I think if the spam filter caught that it would
be doing it's job. Unless you are actively looking or requesting for people to scam you out of money and DDos you system/services.
On the other hand.. blood on your hands could be a product of a gunshot wound that you were on the recieving end of. Assuming you didn't know you were being shot at, and had no reason to be shot at... well then that would negate the sig.
Golly, the president doesn't want his rivals representing him. Oh, for shame.
So you saying, that if a party is elected (by what
ever means) to power, it is OK for them to systemmaticlly remove any non-party members for all
boards (FCC, FAA, DOE, DOD, etc.) and positions
they feel like.
What precentage of America do you beleive Bush
is representing?
Wrong. If they touch you it's Battery. If they confine you with no reasonable evidence it's kidnapping.
Nah, if they touch you, it's assualt. For it to
be Battery, they must successfully hit you.
Think of it as: crummy punch gets you an assualt
charge; hard hitting well time fully connecting
punch gets you a battery charge.
In a day and age when most modern housing looks like shit, there are some nice straw bale housing out there. This is up to you, not
the building materials.
Will fall over upon application of very little lateral force -- no matter how strong you say it is.
OK, I'm convinced you don't know what your talking
about and are just tossing in FUD. Possibly because you're mildly scared that some hippy might
have a nicer house than you.
The object-oriented solution is the garrish hack here. Object classes should have no inherent duty to serialize their game state information at runtime. That should be a responsibility of the language itself (as other posts have mentioned), or some sort of holistic game object, or precomputed as a global data structure as I've shown. You are adding code, data, and object bloat when you create so many classes, all (yes, all) of which have to manage the persistance of their objects.
I still don't see why it has to be global. This
sounds like a poor program structure rather than
some time/space saving trick. I don't see anything (too) wrong with writing the struct, just
that it doesn't need to be global.
Slashdot Mirror
Well, MC Hawking has been doing for longer. And if you don't who he is, then you probably shouldn't be allow a slashdot account. ;)
You've gotta love lyrics like "FUCK THE CREATIONISTS!"
What, you mean people from the mid-west who are over 400lb?
That's a great idea. It will finally solve the problem with christians... the problem of "there's never a lion around when you need one".
But can they touch you? :-)
"Agh, ooooooh, don't stick it there! Turn it off! Turn it off! No wait, second thoughts leave it on a bit longer..."
I guess that explains why american corporations keep running out of money.
I'm buying their stock right now.
Only that they in this case is the U.S. Olympic Committee.
This fucking sucks, I think I'll boycot all Olympic sponsers.

Sounds kind of a long the lines of banks and bank robbers merging. Walking up to the teller and being ask "Help can I you?" by a guy called Fingers...
I've smoked the little bits I found in my k/b. It was an emergency, kind of...
Excellent! This will be great for parties.

Clumsy me, I've been shot!
From one of the links I see:
There is no evidence of irreversible cerebral damage resulting from its use
Did anyone else notice that this looks like across between MacOSX and Ximian/helixcode desktop?

Have you read "1984"?
Gee CypherXero, that's a tough one. How about, I install qmail on this linux box and you roll us a nice fat joint?
Nooooooooooooooooooooo! That's my IP address dude!
How is taking the bus any better than driving there yourself?
Which Open Source pdf reader do you use to fill in these form fill pdf files?
Nah, if they touch you, it's assualt. For it to be Battery, they must successfully hit you. Think of it as: crummy punch gets you an assualt charge; hard hitting well time fully connecting punch gets you a battery charge.
Just FYI. ;-)
Sorry what are you talking about?
Looks like shit.
