Pothead who is so in love with the stuff he or she cannot get through a workday without a joint is a deadbeat. Other poster is right when they say grow up and join the real world. If you want people to pay you money for services, start by acting like you deserve it.
Surely not. Apache can do a lot more than merely serve PHP apps.
Obviously, it can serve any static files all on its own, and it can serve any other type of CGI as well (C, shell, Perl, Python, Ruby, the list goes on). Apache Tomcat is a enterprise-level Java server, and I suspect this is where a large amount of the corporate usage falls under. Apache can also be used as a WebDAV server, it can be used as a Subversion server too.
Don't get pedantic if you're not going to go all the way. An operating system operates all parts of the computer, including the video output parts. Even if it's running in text mode, something has to tell it what characters to draw where. Even DOS had to be "drawn" on the screen, so to speak. If you want to get even more pedantic, then yes, what you saw *most* of the time was command.com or some other program, but the OS itself had video output routines too, specifically, "Starting MS-DOS..." and the always-popular "Command interpreter not found", both of which had to be drawn on the screen somehow.
I would recommend the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children online tip form.
Yes, because teens on myspace who take nude pictures of themselves are clearly being exploited by... themselves.
The insane kneejerk hysteria surrounding the ever-growing umbrella of things that unfortunately technically qualify as "child pornography" is truly something to behold.
Macs are indeed better at this. And you're wrong about his laptop being in S4. It can easily last a week at S3. That's honestly how low power the powerbooks are.
I can't speak for the current gen of macbooks, but I know my old powerbook will only go into what apple calls "Deep Sleep" (S4) if the battery is completely dead. You can tell the difference between the two due to the speed at which it turns back on. In "Sleep" (S3) by the time you've gotten the lid raised, the computer is back on and completely usable, as if nothing had ever happened. S4 is obviously a bit slower.
Precisely. It is home video quality shooting. They're blowing their own foot off and they don't even realize it. Just like the state of prosumer audio equipment has caught up with professional audio equipment and cannibalized the recording industry, the same will eventually happen to the motion picture industry.
And they have no one but themselves to blame. They've forgotten to innovate, or if they have, they haven't done it well enough for it to be commercially successful. So they keep on sticking with the old, traditional methods. When indy movies are as easy to produce as a hollywood blockbuster, they're in for some serious pain. And of course they'll blame it on piracy, instead of realizing what's really eating holes in their bottom line. Just like the RIAA all over again.
Oh, and while we're at it, whomever decided to make the "skip spoken dialogue" button also automatically select the middle option needs to be fired.
You know, you can just hold the joystick in whatever direction you want to choose in advance. If you want paragon, top left. If you want renegade, bottom left. Then there's no issue.
Or, theoretically speaking, the bionic contact could just detect what direction it's rotated or shifted in and adjust the location/rotation of the display appropriately. If they can make a mouse that tracks its way across pretty much any surface using infrared light, I don't see why you couldn't do the same by having it "look" at the pattern of veins in the eye/iris/retina/whatever.
Of course the other approach mentioned of just weighting is probably a lot simpler, cheaper, and more feasable. And just as effective.
That's pretty much our most feasible way of manufacturing Helium on Earth at the moment, by producing (through fission/neutron bombardment) huge quantities of low half-life alpha emitters.
Alternately, there are enormous, mind-boggling amounts of Helium on our neighborhood gas giants, but getting there to collect it, and then getting it back here would also be a bit of a problem.
I love Alton too, but I wish his recipes didn't include "put this in your fridge for 4 hours" quite so often.
Unfortunately that's what cooking is all about. There are exceptions, but generally speaking, good food takes time. There's a reason that "fast food" (as found in a diner, as opposed to McD's which I don't think even qualifies as food) is a negative term.
If you want "full meals in 10 minutes" there are plenty of cookbooks and shows that cater to that form of cooking. But if they seem lackluster (which they do) it's not due to lack of skill, it's just that there's only so much that can be done in that amount of time. Complex foods need time to let themself cook through, for temperatures to stabilize, for water to evaporate, for flavours to be absorbed, for chemical reactions to take place.
I'm unsure what you're talking about regarding clouds and cloud height. Clouds have nothing to do with light domes, which are visible regardless of sky transparency and seeing conditions.
And for the record, I'm sure that yes it is visible from that far away. I've been to an observatory on highway 11, east of Condor, and it's quite visible with a dark-adapted naked eye from there. It's even more obvious with photographs or any other light gathering device. And there are plenty of places in Alberta where you have a direct line of sight to Calgary, look on a map. Unless you count those little 50-person towns with 1 lit gas station. For the record, those don't make any difference unless you're 100 feet from one, and probably not even then.
I rent a server from LayeredTech. Cheap they aren't... at least compared to just plain "hosting" companies, but for what you get, it's a fair price. 1 TB bandwidth per month on a 10 Meg pipe. Reliable and efficient, in my experience.
Light pollution is a problem even for the largest observatories. There is virtually no regulation. The best they can do is buy up as much surrounding land as possible or ensure it's a protected natural environment preserve. But even the largest observatories are facing problems where the surroundings have become increasingly densely populated and light polluted over the years.
You can see the light dome for Calgary from 200 kilometers away, and Calgary has done a lot of work to reduce light pollution, being the first major metropolitan area in the world to replace all streetlight shades with full-cutoff models. It helps that the land is pretty flat here, but still. It's a very difficult problem to avoid, and it doesn't help that we largely don't even bother to try.
The sellers are making money. It's fine for sellers. The problem is, it sucks ass for buyers, who are the majority, and generally speaking are newbies who just want to try and level up their crafting skills by using a whackload of linen at once.
It ultimately suffocates the entire market for crafting goods, effectively removing an entire aspect of the game (and one of the more enjoyable aspects, to many people)
I don't understand how a character concept can be copyrighted anyway, isn't that more of a job for trademarking? In my understanding, copyright should only apply to specific individual representations of the mouse. A specific drawing of him I can't copy outright, for example.
It's definitely a CO2 issue as well. Pure silicon (which is required in relatively massive quantities for a typical solar cell) is produced by reacting silicon dioxide with coal or charcoal in an electric arc furnace to rip the O2 off the SiO2 and attach it to the carbon in the coal instead, creating... tada, CO2.
Plus the furnace itself is probably powered by coal generated electricity.
And that's just the silicon, nevermind the other doping elements or the actual manufacturing of the panel itself.
The Titan IV and Atlas V rockets are about on par with the shuttle for payload, and the Delta IV Heavy actually exceeds it by quite a bit. NASA uses them frequently too, it's just that the shuttle launches are the only ones that get any publicity. Like you said, they're the only ones that are manned.

Thanks for your opinion, I completely agree. But I'm not sure how drug tests have anything to do with the thread in question.

PHP is a hobbyist thing, not a corporate thing.
Have you seen most pirated software rips? I think they more than qualify as "degraded".

do you think it's likely that people would voluntarily amputate their legs to be faster?
Man, there are people who drill holes in their skull to to get high. So, yes. Yes. Resoundingly, yes.
It'll only legitimately become the evolution of the language when everyone starts to agree with the usage. Clearly, everyone does not.

This message brought to you by the United States cron lobby. Lobbying today for a better tomorrow.
Lobbying today and tomorrow, but not Sunday, and then for the next six days, but always excluding the first of February.

If the human race, in millions of years, still has any use whatsoever for natural gas, I will eat my hat.

3. What is Hubbart's Peak for uranium? I have no idea, but it surely must have one.
I'm sure it's much more than 1,000 years even if you used it to supply 2x our current energy needs.
And in 1,000 years, I sincerely doubt we'll be at all concerned about fuelling any ancient fission reactors as anything other than a museum exhibit.

It's not. Using a different file format is helping you to read current formats in 20 years, when Microsoft pulls this same stunt again.
