Man, I wish I could find some programmers as good as you guys for my positions starting at $95k with full medical and dental. It's amazing how many people turn down our 401k and stock option program, especially with the incredible opportunities for advancement.
Anyway, you make a good point about user mode autodetect with the current situation, although I still think in-kernel autodetect should be the goal.
Except an explosion is simply a sudden increase in volume and release of energy in a violent manner, usually with the generation of high temperatures and the release of gases. That most definately explains the condition which occurs within a cylinder -- without a increase in volume, your piston wouldn't move. You are correct that it is a controlled burn, but it is an explosion nonetheless.
Also, "detonation" is not a bad thing; it's predetonation which is responsible for knocking, and is defined as the fuel igniting before the spark.
Dude (or sir), the electoral college is only for the President, and contrary to his opinion, he doesn't make the law. Also congress decides how elections are run, so if you don't like the electoral college, write your congressmen. That, by the way, illustrates my second point, which is that "the vote" is not the only way to influence policy. One thing's for sure: Your apathetic resignation is guaranteed to get the results you complain about.
Well, I didn't read the CNN version, but TOFA from which the CNN summary was written had an unsavory little tidbit:
Extracting knowledge from embryos that would otherwise be wasted is one thing, but scientists admit that moving forward would require a much larger supply of fresh, healthy embryos than fertility clinics could ever provide. And once you start asking people about creating embryos for the purpose of experimenting on them, the support starts to slow down.
If I'm not mistaken, Commodore's patents are one of the exact reasons why it couldn't be done in the PC industry. The patents have expired, but now we're all used to the kludge method, so that seems to be what we're stuck with.
I know it's satisfying to point out a source for all our problems, but illegal immigrants are just an easy target to point at, and then make up reasons after the fact, aka scapegoats. If illegal immigrants are such a problem, then we should see a significant amount of our structures failing, at least in proportion to their 14% representation, if not higher. Since they're probably somewhat evenly distributed, then we should actually expect a lot more structures to fail, since there should be at least one or two illegals with their "grubby mitts" in the mix on just about every project. In reality we don't see anything near 15% of our ceilings collapsing, or 15% of bridges falling into the water.
Anyway, your union rep talking points might feel good, but anecdotes about farm boys and who you'd trust with your firstborn in a Home Depot parking lot do not a rational argument make.
Grocery Clerk: Toilet paper, toilet paper, toilet paper, chewing gum.. Hey, hey... now you kids be careful with this chewing gum, don't go sticking it under tables. Let's see, toilet paper, toilet paper.. You know, son, I remember you coming in last week and buying this much toilet paper.
So what exactly is a valid reason for the formation of a nation? Not religion, not ethnicity, not culture, not language.. Geographical boundaries? What?
Obviously all of these have played some part in the formation of every nation. Every single country on earth is an arbitrary and artificial subdivision of people for reasons that mattered only to the people who decided to form that country. By your logic, you could just as well illegitimize the US, or Egypt, or anyone else. The point is, the country exists now, regardless of how, when, or why it was established, and you might not like that fact, but Israel is our strongest ally in the middle east, and that alone is reason to help.
That, of course, is in itself an appalling state of affairs - it is the antithesis of democracy governed by law, as it gives the authorities carte blanche to arrest and punish whomever they wish.
There have always been, and will always be, catchall laws such as disturbing the peace, loitering, disorderly conduct, etc. That's not to say that it's a good thing, but the protection against the indiscriminate application of law is not to pass fewer laws (although that helps), but rather trial by a jury of peers. If we don't care enough about each other to take seriously the role of jury, then we are tacitly allowing the encroachment of government, and probably deserve the results.
I think he meant MODs or C64 music. The "C64 music," was SID files, cleverly named after the SID chip. IIRC, the later SID players supported lyrics complete with a little bouncing ball, and I vaguely remember downloading these files from Q-Link back in my early double digits.
Anyway, MODs came out in 1987, which is the same decade as 1982 -- the year the C64 was released.
Thanks, Boldy Locks, but if someone doesn't understand what you're saying, then perhaps you should reconsider your phrasology before attacking your opponent. Seriously, you just vehemently made yourself look like an ass.

You'd have to post it as a lament though.

Not necessarily.
I can't believe nobody has pointed out that it wasn't the Skywalkers who used jet packs; it was Boba Fett.
Nerds indeed.

compared to countries that don't have sugar lobbies that are bigger than their actual industries...
I think you mean corn lobbies.. bigger than the entire sugar industry. I'm pretty sure the sugar lobby, if it existed, would welcome increased demand.
Until someone realizes it's just flipped on its back.

Don't worry, I didn't get points -- It's just a karma bonus (bottom of the page).

Nay.
You've obviously never been to Japan.

Pfft.. just be glad you don't live in DC.
Ok, but just between you and everyone else here, how sloshed were you?

I realize this may sound discriminatory, but I do not think that the 15-18 year old inner city demographic represents the typical online gamer.
