But we still have to raise crops anyway. Your body needs vegetable etc. Anyway, I think you're forgeting about half the process, once the cows are good for eatin', they don't just leave the farm and walk into you kitechen and carve themseves up (insert funny HGTTG quote here).
As long as he's not making a profit, he can make it as usful as he wants. And while you're there, perhaps you should look up the dictionary deffinition aswell. Maybe you have a very narrow deffinition of what a parody is.
I don't understand your point. Surely you're not talking about Lithium Ion battery cells right? Do you have any knowlege of chemicals or battery cells?
"They estimate that it can do up to 11km. With a single repeater 16km sounds plausable."
yeah, but when will it transmit miles?;)
Well, since this is New Zealand, and we use the metric system, miles are a low priority for us. They can only get a range of about 8.6 with miles currently.
Which brings us to a good point: Why the fuck are we still using this naming system (answer to retorical question: marketing idiots)? How many people would know what size a WUXGA screen is? I wish they would just list the resolution--1920x1200--and be done with it.
Unfortutaly, in 3 years time, we will probably be seeing screen with XWDSUXGA (Extra-wide Double Super Ultra eXtended Graphics Adapter) etc.
I highly doubt they will be banned. Maybe banned from certian places, like the theater, school, library, etc. But not in public, or the work place, or your home.
I've seen lots of talk on/., yes. But we all know that/. can be full of BS most of the time--Reality seems to get distorted on the/. forums.
I carry my phone in my bag, in the top pocket near my head. Quite a few times I have been supprised that I have missed a call--Surly I would have heard it, since I have good hearing. But not always.
So that's why cellphones need to be loud, and it's also why vibrate is not the answer for everyone.
And some people want to take a call when someone calls, not spend money and ring them 2 hours latter or hope they ring back sometime.
Also, when I go to the toilet, or into the kitchen. I don't want to have to bring my phone with me.
And no, not all of us are shameless enough to wear a belt-clip. Some of us have small pockets. And quite a few of us want to keep our reproductive organs in working shape, even if some of us never get a chance to use them.
But most of use would still thank you anyway for opting for vibrate mode over a customise ring tone set at it's loudest setting.
My thoughts exactly. I find that some of my favorite albums, I didn't even like very much untill I listened to them a lot.
There's still usally 1 or 2 that I don't like much, but since I get a hard copy of what I bought, all complete with a pretty booklet, in a handy case, it still seems more value than 99c a song.
Wonder if they will charge more for longer songs? Like Pink Floyd - Echoes etc.? And would we have to pay 99c for the little 20 second songs?
I know they use a different substrate. My point was that if they can think up things like that, then it doesn't seem unreasonable that they could develop substrate techology to burn at different layers. Not saying it's possbile or pratical, but it wouldn't suprise me if they could.
Uh... Did you read the original post? Unless you plan on building the ISS out of rock that contains traces of metals, it's just was worthless up there as it is here on earth.
I wonder if this isn't what North Korea is trying to do. Force us to blow them up, them rebuild them. I just don't see why else antagonizing the largest military in the world would benefit them at this point.
Close. But not quite. I think they want aid type deals etc. And are basicaly threatening they'll attack if they don't get it.
It's mainly (hopefully) just a big show to get some freebies.
Thankfully you have absolutely no say on the pending war with Iraq. It's narrow minded cowards like yourself that allowed millions of jews to die at the hand of Hitler.
Acctually, it's narrow-minded cowards like you that are so blind, they don't see what comming.
In about a month when the war is over, let's see what you have to say about all the Iraq people celebrating in the streets from their new found freedom.
I think that you will find their attitude will be more like: "Thanks for getting this idiot out of here. But you guys were still responsable for him being here in the first place, and for blowing the shit out of our country. Now just fuck off and leave us alone."
The thing is, if the US had wanted to liberate the civilians of Iraq, they could have done it a long time ago. And they could have done it without destroying their country so much.
Bush probably has a few reason to attack Iraq. But liberating civilians is not one of them. Just look at how he treats his own people for fuck's sake.
I doubt Saddam really wants to destroy the US. I doubt he'd even have the technology to do so without being able to it. He knows that he doesn't stand a chance if he were to try and attack the US. Saddam is only interested in bullying the people around him and his own people.
Maybe he does have links with the Al Quada(?). But I'd rather take the risk, because as I said, attacking Iraq is more likely to cause terrorist attacks that prevent any.
If there's any country needs disarming, it's the US, since it has a bad habit of stiring these things up in the first place (take that last comment with a gain of salt).
I think there is still hope in a diplomatic solution. I'm not against dissarming Iraq, I just think using military force is a mistake this early on.

Thanks GWBush, I've suspected a guy that I think is up to no good. And now that you're proven that pre-emptive strikes are OK, I can shoot this guy.
If anyone can find it, post it.
Prevention of more/other crimes to society?

Damn straight. They have to get the patients concent first! And we all know that never happened!
Read that line again...very carefully. Don't you think there could be some problems there?

Which is the reason I replied, silly :p
Nice idea of course, but I don't think we're quite there yet.
You sure about that? Re-writable CDs sound just as impossable if you put it that way. But they've managed to find a way to "un-burn" a CD.
Close. But not quite. I think they want aid type deals etc. And are basicaly threatening they'll attack if they don't get it.

Time is relative.
Early on also meaning before we know they will attack someone.
I think I know what you mean. But it must only be for a small amount of applications.

Viewing angle problems? I'm aware of that with LCDs, but not LEDs? Care to explain?
1) Sell weapons of mass destruction to Iraq
2) Profit
3) Claim that Iraq has weapons of mass destruction and should be dissarmed
4) ???
5) Profit!!!
