    yes, but in this case it is an RSS 2 feed and software can download it and make it available for syncing with your favorite portable music player with out you actually doing anything other than subscribing to a feed.

    makes it very convenient.

    I would be happy if all things considered were podcasted.

    that is pretty narrow. many blogs are good journalism... and many podcasts are actual shows that have a point to them... there is a show called the maccast... there is a show that reads off the slashdot highlights fromt he day, Leo Laport turns his radio show into a podcast....

    yes, it is open to morons... but so fucking what...maybe people listen because they make fun of the losers.

    umm... you can listen to them on any MP3 player...just get a podcast client....

    BTW... it shows just how entrenched the iPod is when a distribution method based on RSS 2 and MP3 is called PODcasting.

    but then your function crashes your house when you call it like this:

    actually... we do interface with a door as door open.

    you decided to interact with the door, then you use the door's open method to access its knob object and use the knob object's turn method which opens the door.

    same with every object in life... each object has an interface to it and we access something in that interface to do something to that object.

    WTF? you just posted something that in the first 3 lines contradicts what you just said you moron,

    Gravity travels at c (The Speed of Light) which means it would take 8 minutes for earth to lose orbit. sure... in the scale of things like the solar system it would appear tangental but it is most certainly NOT instantaneous. Try reading a book or two on the subject rather than a forum.

  10. Re:But what about galactic cohesion? on Dark Matter Discovered · · Score: 1

    perhaps the pressure from dark energy which is pushing the galaxies apart in all directions acts to hold them together?

  11. Re:At least there were... on Dark Matter Discovered · · Score: 1

    as far as relativity is concerned..... they are still there.

    Gravity waves cannot travel faster than light so when while we can see them the mass of them still exists. For instance.. if the sun disappeared right now, it would take earth 8 minutes to begin to leave the normal orbit... during that time we would still see... feel, and be affected by the sun. to us the sun is still in the sky therefore it is still in the sky.

    the only way one can see that the sun is gone before people at or near earth can know is if the observer was outside the solar system's frame of reference and placed in some sort of frame of reference that allowed them to see as events unfolded.

  12. Re:This is BS - Dark Matter is Fiction on Dark Matter Discovered · · Score: 1

    if you subscribe to M theory then all that dark energy and dark matter that they say is needed could have been a calculation error based on the need to make up for the force exerted by an adjoining membrane which collided with the membrane that our universe resides in and thus our universe was born.

    what part of:

    "The crippling of the 12" Powerbook is one of the reasons that prevented me from buying an apple."

    makes you think that this guy has been or ever was an apple customer? he makes a point to say that he is prevented from buying apple because the 12 inch is missing FW800 and Gb Ethernet. what other 12 inch model laptop has either of those? so I assume the same crippling features prevents him from buying ANY laptop (since he obviously excludes larger laptops given his blanket inability to buy anything apple because of the 12 inch "crippling").
