You know that people won't be happy if you take away their ability to transmit webpages securely
No, it's when the gadgets can do everything you can't do that you will no longer need to work.
Until then you still need to work to make money to pay someone else to do those things...
Get him some fake ID instead so he can go out on the lash after the tournament... in my experience it was always fun as fencing left me quite dehydrated
So to combat the post-joist dehydration, you're suggesting something that has two major flaws:
1. Fake IDs are, if i'm not mistaken, Quite Illegal... (personally I don't have a problem with it but many people do not condone underage drinking)
2. You're suggesting combat the dehydrating effecs of fencing by consuming a beverage (alcohol) that, in and of itself, dyhydrates one's self? Ya, that's intelligent.
They're called emoticons and abbreviations. They were pioneered in the early days of the internet on IRC. In the early days (long before the WWW and all the 1337 m4d 40L h4X0rs) the vast majority of people online were intellectuals, they were EE majors and home PC enthusiasts for the most part (as there was no such thing as of yet as CS).
Just because you've only seen the internet for the past 7 years or less yourself, doesn't mean it didn't exist long before you even dreamt about it. Really the only lamerz and lusers are the script kiddies who are probably not much younger than you seem to be.
Just because a few children walk into a school and shoot their classmates does that make every gun enthusiast a killer? No, many will actually teach you that there's a lot more to a gun than 'Point and Shoot'. Don't go labelling us all just because of a few kids who dl BO2k or WinNuke.
Personally I use 'ur' and 'lol' extensively when I chat. I have two diplomas (web development and network engineering, and not from DeVry or ITT Tech or any shit like that). I taught my friends at school the basics of linux (enough that they could start learning themselves very easily). As well I teach my bosses (who are also programmers), new functions, new ideas, and new styles regularly.
Just because I can't write a mouse driver in C (I probably could, I've never tried), doesn't mean I'm not 'intellectual'. Sure, many may agree with you, but I'm sure for every 'internet intellectual' that agrees with you, there are 10 more who will agree with me and the many others who are replying to your comment. And because you wanted to make a distinction, anyone else who agrees with you doesn't matter, because in your previous point you pointed out that only the 'intellectuals' mattered.
Its people like you, constantly calling on the kiddies with your incessant flamebait, that make the real 'internet intellectuals' stay offline or in ug chat rooms.
Considering the level of your post I'm hoping you don't consider yourself one of us.
BTW, to everyone who is reading this and agrees with me, or doesn't but at least disagrees with the parent, I apologize for having to drop to his level and waste all your time, but sometimes you just have to put these people in their place.
Fuckin trolls...
I just want to point out that it was Mayor Nagin that approached Microsoft.
(As a man in a suit opens a briefcase full of benjamins)... "Mr. Nagin... my associate would like to make you an offer you can't refuse, but you must go to meet him..."
Ya... that way its all legit right?
Bzzzt again. This just isn't your day. First, modern physicists don't even talk about mass increasing as velocity increases. Mass is mass is mass;
No shit, which is why I said a finite mass weighs more, that that the finite mass gains more mass.
IIRC a person weighs less on the moon, with respect to the moon, because the gravitational forces (cause by the mass of the moon) are smaller.
As you approach the speed of light, you weigh more, not in respect to eh earth, but in resepct to yourself.
Your molecules, having the same mass as they did at rest, have a much stronger force of attraction between them.
I said nothing about mass increasing, that is both physically and theoretically impossible, without actually adding mass of course.
Third -- and now I'm just being obnoxious -- you seem to confuse "mass" and "weight".
Now I can be obnoxious... Everyone always complains about people not reading the articles and posting a reply to a front-page story, but it seems you have not even read the comment you are replying to... or your 5th grade english skills make it impossible for you to comprehend.
Either way, I'm not the one at fault.
if I am going nearly the speed of light in one direction and you are going nearly the speed of light in the other direction, who dies because their body can't handle the speed?? NEITHER OF US DIPSHIT!!
EEENH!!! Wrong Answer, thanks for trying.
If you're going nearly the speed of light, and you're friend is going nearly the speend of light, you both die.
As you approach the speed of light, a finite mass will actually weigh more, by many, mnay orders of magnitude. The forces your own molecules would be exerting on themselves would cause your body to implode itself.
If your body no longer exists in the form it currently is, instead being either a) a group of atoms violently moving apart or b) a superdense chunk of matter, I don't think you'll be alive...
Does this mean that Outlook will eventually evolve into a secure MUA?
No; Not for 2 reasons:
1. Viruses attack the host (i.e. Windows in this case). Think of Outlook as some body orifice through with the virus may gain entry (I'll leave the choice of which orifice up to you).
2. The article mentions that the evolution is due to a process similar to a game of chess between the virus DNA and the host DNA, albiet on a very large, complicated chessboard.
As humans, our DNA on its own is quite intelligent, and has been able to counter any move the retrovirus made, keeping some sort of stalemate going for the past couple thousand years.
Windows, however, altho large and complicated, is not intelligent. It couldn't win a game of chess no matter how hard it tried, let alone winning against anyone who was playing for life.
Those that lose the game, die. End of story.
Also, high-quality wall warts (oxymoron, I know) should not waste much power. The power waste is due to eddy currents and other leakage currents within the poorly-made transformer
No, the power loss is not due to the transformer so much as the diodes in the rectifier (to convert AC into DC) the resistors to make sure the current is correct, and the capacitors used to clean up the dirty DC signal created by the rectifier.
German: fussball N/American: 2 incarnations: foosball (with th 1.5" lighter balls, larger table, larger 'players') and jittoni (with 1" balls (but heaver then their foosball cousins), smaller table, smaller players)
What you see in 'rich' peoples basements is usually a foosball table (although I dont know why you call them rich, you can get a brand new foosball table for a few hundred dollars). The ones in bars (at least here in Ontario) are generally jittoni tables.
It is moldy saliva. I saw those spots while growing up in a small town (mitchell) in southwestern Ontario, and I still see them now in Toronto. I always saw them in higher concentrations in places where many people smoke (for example smoking sections at highschools). They are about the size of a spitwad, and about the shape of a normal one too... This would also explain being found just outside of overhangs (as another user pointed out). People will crowd under an overhang in the rain, but they wont spit on each other, they will spit on the ground where all the rain is. It's no big deal, just use a pressurewasher to clean them off every couple of months and you have nothing to worry about. Give the conspiracy theories a rest.
I have windows 95a install disks... all 13 of them... As well somewhere in the bottom of a box a dos 3.21 disk, and the full install set for PC-dos 5.0... I could go on (pre-win31 installs, old unuseable dos's that wont work on an PC-AT or better, etc...)
The only problem is that when your friends come over with their new antigrav masses, you will be attracted to those as well (as they are equally exerting large forces on your mass), you would be pulled out of the pseudo-orbit you must maintain between your mass and the earth, and all of a sudden, the world is sucked into approximately 6 billion quantum singularities.
On top of that, where would you get this amount of mass, assuming the amount of mass in the universe is widely accepted to be constant.
AFAIK a graviton is neither a spinning cylinder nor a spinning disk [sic:disc], I believe the apparatus you are picturing is a 'Gravitron', a carnival ride.
Let me know when you can beatmix with iPods.:D Oh wait, you can't!
You're right, you can't beatmix with an iPod. with a laptop, and two usb soundcards like this offering from CreativeLabs you can do beatmixing, and quite well I might add. There are plugins available for winamp for pitch/temp control (run multisession, each out to a different soundcard) or even better use professional mixing software, i.e. something from SonicFoundry (like Acid, or Vegas) You setup the two extigys as separate buses and you can do mixes straight to your board (at which point you add your analogue filters and panning). You use the internal built-in soundcard on the laptop for your monitor. You can do some really amazing stuff. Don't knock it till u've tried it... although I'm assuming since you're completely clueless on the available digital alternatives, you haven't even tried oldskool vinyl.
