Commercially, the autopilot is the preferred method because it can make the tiny imperceptible changes for maximum fuel efficiency, that a normal pilot wouldn't (they're unnecessary from a flight point of view).
When the autopilot fails, the normal pilot takes over.
I had absolutely no idea how the car I was in would react when I jammed the footbrake on, on a wet road, going at 35mph. As it happens, I went into the back of the (stopped) car in front, at about 25mph.
My fault? Yes. I wasn't paying enough attention. I didn't know the road, I looked at the sign to see where I needed to go, I messed it up, and splat. I'm sure it could have been a lot worse, the road was a 60mph speed limit dual-carriageway; luckily I'd paid attention in my driving lessons and had noted the weather conditions (overcast, wet road) and had reduced my speed accordingly.
Unfortunately, dropping your speed isn't everything. And you know what? I'm a *lot* more careful about paying attention to *exactly* what is in front of me now.
I still think that had I had chance to experiment with the car, slam the brakes on at 50, repeatedly, in an open, safe area, I may have done better. Sadly, the laws don't let you do that here unless you're on a private road, which I don't have.
I'd like to see some of these people try the UK motorways. I've nearly been rear-ended on my way to work before, and that was when I was doing 85mph. Some of these people come *racing* down those roads. 70mph is the official limit, but I've overtaken a police car at 80 before, no problems. Keep it under 90, and you're safe from the law unless you do something idiotic.
RE the BSAC deco tables, the idea is that you're not supposed to do deco dives until you've been trained in *how* to do them.
I know exactly how, but I rarely did any (*sigh* rarely do any diving any more) because for the most part they weren't necessary in UK water. When there's something specific to be seen, yeah, you plan out a deco dive if necessary.
That's all it really takes, a bit of planning, and thinking about what you want to do, and how to do it safely.
One thing I would recommend, however...anyone wanting to see the effects of nitrogen narcosis should go into a recompression chamber down to 50/60 metres, for added benefit, watch someone else from the outside afterwards. Quite a disturbingly enlightening experience!
MDMA is supposed to have beneficial therapeutic effects on Post-traumatic Stress Disorder patients; I watched a close friend of mine have an unpleasant experience, but the day after she stated that despite not enjoying it, it was still useful. Apparently it forced her to face and deal with parts of her psyche that had been repressed over the years...she definitely seemed a bit more in control afterwards:)
Not mine:) First-revision VIA chipset, neither Win2K nor XP would run. 2K blue-screened during the *install*, while XP randomly froze.
So I installed Linux (well, what else could I do?) and it ended up being my router. It's been replaced now, of course...I may use it to play old DOS games...
Use the automounter, your distro should have set that up. Put CD in, it gets mounted. Press eject button, if it can be umounted, it will be.
Font support in X...agreed, it's a bit hairy. Once again, your distro vendor is responsible for this. I installed a set of TrueType fonts and they look better in Firefox on Gentoo than they did in Windows.
Personally I have no issue maintaining and configuring *my* system, but all the multitude of places it could be over different distros can be confusing. I've had to resort to telling people to grep -r for their IP to work out how to change it on their distro. I do like the way that for the most part you can just browse through/etc and see what you want to change, though.
Cached writes? Use a journalling filesystem, ext3 or ReiserFS spring to mind. And yep, once again, this is down to your distro vendor.
Audio CDs ignore a lot of the error-correction you'd have on a data CD, so just ripping it twice on the same machine (to.wav files or something else lossless) may very likely produce different checksums.
Scratch repair employed by CDex/cdparanoia and suchlike tends to mangle small differences before you even get round to encoding anything.

This probably depends on the settings you have, I always turn "open new explorer windows with new process" on, for stability.
I don't have an available Windows machine to test on, but I would think this is what's affecting it.
The liquid will probably be far too viscous for the fans to turn properly, you'll just damage their electronics.

Run explorer using runas, then go to the Control Panel.
a) I am a guy :P
:)
b) Learning how to do it *without* locking the wheels and skidding, thus increasing the stopping distance. No ABS
I blame my first accident on things like this.

Freeway? 70mph?
Yikes.

The G5 has a 48-bit address size, IIRC. Not up to the insanity of 64-bit, but far far better than the piffling 32 most of us have to deal with.

Also: I want my Indy2 back

If you get one of those bluescreens, the system is probably fairly mangled inside anyway, and restarting is a pretty good idea before it *does* die...
I'd prefer fewer, better enemies, as opposed to the kamikaze effect that some games have (Serious Sam: The Second Encounter springs to mind).
It just adds a bit of thinking to the situation; I liked games like Soldier of Fortune 2 for those.

If I really wanted the surround information, I'd probably just pass-through the AC3 straight from the DVD.
Admittedly, it could take up extra space, but minimal effort, and no quality loss.
Sounds like the sort of thing systrace does on the *BSDs, I believe there is a Linux port as well.
Anyone familiar with SElinux and whether it does things like this?
I would also expect any ACL-based system to act similarly.
..."*BSD is dead!" trolls are dying.
While we're being picky, shouldn't that just be ironic?
Ogg is just a container. Unless you're talking about Theora?

Dictionaries, my friend; dictionaries.
Not sure what's more masochistic, anal fisting or trying to configure X...
The irony in the song seems to be that none of the examples are actually ironic...
And the Trogdor comes in the niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight!!
The code that's sent doesn't necessarily need to be run on the host CPU.
