In my world, the power button is an absolute. It is wired to the power supply directly, not hooked to the motherboard. When I want my computer off, I want it OFF. When I want it to shut down, I'll run halt my damn self.
Buttons like that are supposed to be absolute. I don't want to wait for 30 seconds while my harddrive is on fire and realize that the system ISN'T off yet because there's a mutt session that doesn't want to close, then going and finding the right power cord to pull while all this is going on.
Even things that are not-quite-so mentally demanding such as electrical work become very difficult once a certain point is reached. For me, it's at about 65 hours/week.
Scranton, Pennsylvania has been getting these "wonderful" call center jobs for some time now. Cigna, Fleet, RCN, various telemarketing firms . ..
They pay crap. They know where people stand out here, and exactly how much they'll work for. They've done studies. How else do you come up with rates like $9.07/hr
All bees that live north of the carolinas need to "winter over" as it's called. They don't really hibernate perse, because bees don't sleep at all. They form in a cluster, and actually shiver to keep warm. The queen stays at the center of the cluster, the rest of the bees rotate around. They make flights out to relieve themselves on nice days.
In Northeastern Pennsylvania, it takes about 70 pounds of honey to survive an average winter. Average honey production is somewhere around 150 pounds. Winter is considered to last from the first week of November to the first blossoms of the year(usually red bud maple, sometime in March)
I don't find it odd at all that the honeybee survived a year without sunshine, especially if in the warmer months it got above 40, so the bees could fly about to collect water.
I didn't notice the similarity in the logos until I saw them side by side. The thing that stood out most to me, I guess, is the pile of various hardware and the crowd being triumphant having conquered it. I can't really say that I noticed the flag all that much, but I know I must have known it was there.
Do you mean everybody at the park called it "Six Flags" or the locals? I'm pretty sure the parent was talking about the locals. I remember many conversations from my youth about going to "Great Adventure". Deal with it. People from Jersey are like that.
Besides, what kind of name is "Six Flags" anyway. It's like "5 stones" or "Two Flowers" or some other bunk. "Great Adventure" at least means something.
And I'd doubt that you'd been there more than most people who live in Jersey. My aunt and uncle had season passes and went twice a week.
All that's needed are some sensors in the roads to tell when they're occupied, just like at redlights. Count the cars as they go by; note the average speed. Do this over several miles of interstate, and you can predict where traffic is going to back up, at which exits and such. A drastic drop in speed indicates some sort of problem on the road.
We don't need AI in cars driving us around, nor do we need rfid tags in our cars. We need intelligent planning as far as highways are concerned.
With the way Lexmark makes their printers, that they're not instructing users to throw their printers away after removing the nameplate from the back, and mailing the nameplate back to lexmark.
I mean, after all, they are the maker of the famous $40 printer that takes $35 ink cartridge.
I believe the program you speak of is a86. It was $50 to register it, which is why it was unpopular.
It used the same method hydan uses. It used equivelant instructions that were "different" from the way the code was written. I'd used it a bit for myself, and noticed that was what it did when I opened the files later with debug.
The documentation never really said how, it just said it "fingerprinted" the code.
Wouldn't linux then have to do things like have manpages that are accurate and up to date? Linux isn't about manpages and maturity, it's about running a webserver from the kernel and "cool things".
I'm not talking about blasting thru a red light at full speed out of the blue, I'm more talking about the 1/4 mile line of traffic at the mall waiting to get out, and the last few people going thru after the light turns red, and before the other side gets the green. I've sat and watched it many times, and the bottom line is that the lights just aren't set up properly. More cars would build up at the exit than would get thru on the green light.
The problem with this are the people who are for the 55mph speed limit. They think that "slower is safer" for some reason. I don't understand how that works, since when NJ raised the speed limit fatal accidents went down.
What people don't realize, is that if every stupid speed limit were obeyed, no lights jumped/ran, all stops made completely, traffic would be many times worse than it is.

Algore: During my service in the United States Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet.
Snopes: No, Al Gore did not claim he "invented" the Internet, nor did he say anything that could reasonably be interpreted that way.
So taking "the initiative in creating" something isn't inventing it? Am I unreasonable in thinking otherwise?

Ok, which wire goes where now!

I'm a bit younger than you, but I remember learning to do addition when I was 3.
My grandfather taught me.
He taught me by teaching me how to play blackjack.
I thought it had to do with reactivity which only took place on the surface of the pile . . .
If you don't care about voltages and want to increase the surface area, what's wrong with drilling holes in the carbon cylinder?
This microscopic pile method has its uses, but the holes-in-the carbon method would be easier and cheaper to build and be fine for many applictions.
Have you looked at the idea of fuel cells? Email me and we can chat about other things relevant to this thread.
Can it "live"
Think about that statement
Like Pat Buchannan?
What you're saying is, the lab created ozone lacks homogeniety.

We don't know if anyone would be able to use it, correct, but I know one thing for sure.
If we don't put it there, then they definatly can't use it.

I can see one logical conclusion to this
People who speed have more money than people who don't, therefore they can be charged more.
