Several of the books describe it not as a beam of light, but as a plasma circuit that extends one meter and curves 180 degrees back to the base, which is why the tip is round. While not much that would give it some mass. As an aside, it would also be 5000c, hot enough that holding the handle would be a sure fire way to get some serious burnination.
I'm trying to make sense if your analogy, but it seems to me that you have no idea what the OSI model is, how it works, or how they relate to tcp/ip&udp. It's almost like you're grabbing common tech acronyms and tossing them together. Here are a few to familiarize yourself with. STFU id-10-t or GTFO.
Funny..... Clark also said something about sufficiently advanced technology being indistinguishable from fiction, or magic, or something make belive and/or fantasy.
The verbatim quote escapes me, but the point is still valid.
So... wal-mart's business practices are pretty incorrigible. However, I do think there should be some sort of public response. Without wanting to get into a huge sociological discussion about things, a large part of wal-mart's client base are from the lower and lower-middle class.
With the holiday shopping season is quickly coming up, this product is a trap for parents who otherwise may not be able to afford exactly what their child truly wishes for. I'm not going to say they're going to confuse this for a Wii, but given marketing and appearance, there may be some who see this as a cheaper alternative. I think it's pretty unethical to base your entire company policy on providing lower prices on products and then abuse their confidence by providing a useless, dressed up alternative during a season where loving parents are known for going to extreme measures to provide for their kids.
Yes, I was referring to the larger chain/commercial beers. There are some very delicious domestic beers, I personally fancy Fat Tire quite a lot. There's also a decent micro not too far from where I live.
Being as you seem to be completely ignorant, I'll let you in on a not-so-secret clue about Apple point releases. They have about as much of a content difference between Windows 95 to Windows 98. If you don't think that's a lot then keep using your spyware infested piece of garbage. Keep in mind that that's a lot more content than 95->OSR2 or 98 to second edition...
I'm not saying anything about your ability as a teach, but me as a network-guru must protest what you're doing. I realize that linux is more secure. Like windows it needs to be kept up-to-date with all patches, and frankly I wouldn't trust anyone not on the network staff to do that. Furthermore, I would personally make sure that anyone who has such a blatant disregard for security protocol and company policy is taken to the fullest disciplinary measure, and if you kept doing it I'd do my best to have you removed. If you have a problem with the way the school is being run, take it to the tech department, if they shrug you off, take it to the principal, if he or she ignores you, try the school board and/or parent teacher's association. It's very irresponsible of you to supercede the authority of your networking staff.
Thanks for that. I wasn't aware of the next gen system architecture at all, and as such wasn't aware that most (all?) new games are being developed with SMP in mind. I did mention that one of the best uses would be people who run multiple applications at once though.
Additionally, sorry for my formatting I don't really care enough to add boldface and fancy line breaks everywhere, so it may have been annoying to read everything in my original post.
I understand your cynicism. Especially considering how a lot of processor intensive applications that most consumers use (games and other multimedia, and to a small margin running outlook, internet explorer, and MSN messenger together) get absolutely no benefit from SMP. However, as multi-core chips are rapidly becoming the defacto must have for everyone, I think developers are going to start coding to take advantage of this. We've already heard plenty of rumors about offloading most/all of the physics processing onto a chip that does it's computations in matrices rather than in any sort of linear fashion, streamlining the process both in method of computation and by freeing up your cpu cycles any number of other tasks (potentially an increase in game artificial intelligence, so it behaves less predictably, maybe do away with all of the nested tree structures and boolean choices) The only potential problem is increasing the complexity of development. Applications to take full advantage of all the new widgets will also take exceedingly more development time, support time, QA time, ect which will (alm0st) inevitably lead to a rise for consumers.
Here's to hoping they turn the Han Solo trilogy into a two-movie bad-ass fest of banditry, smuggling, laser and star ship battles, and general scoundrel(y)
April 1 is my favorite of the year to read slashdot. Normally I get three or so interesting reads a week on the site, but on April Fools, everything is worth reading. It's just hilarious.
I hate to nit-pick, but being as it was 48% of the population, it would seem entirely possible that everyone one of them has below average intelligence. That is if we assume that there is a correlation between their disbelief and intelligence....
Amazing! RedHat 6.2 was my first linux distro ever, and after my second time getting rooted, I started to dig around a whole bunch.
I feel it's flaws are the only reason I know anything about linux....

I'm sorry. I'm pretty sure. you fail at the internets.
Why's it got to be about race, dog?
The way I read it was reaching 100% efficiency would mean one gallon of of this would contain the same amount of energy as one gallon of gasoline.
Ignore this. Mix acid and bases. Lots of them.
adding and subtracting numbers two digit numbers is hard, confirm?

I think there should be some recourse, and in addition to the parent's address I've grabbed a customer service hyper-link to a web form. Please express yourself constructively. http://www.walmart.com/cservice/cu_commentsonline.gsp?cu_heading=8

I was going to mod this, but I decided I would comment on how I think most Canadian beer is better than most American beer(piss)

This comment is insightful, and should be modded +5 in such a way to demonstrate fairness within the moderation system.
