these are only photons. All they have done is entagled them so that what happens to one it happens to the other. They need a minimum of 5 for error correction. I didn't read the article yet so I don't know the distance involved. Small distances are a lot when it comes to this. If I remember right they had just performed an entanglement of a couple of meters in just the last year. Like I said this is just photons, particles of light, they have not teleported actual solid matter so physically you can't move things. This will make it so that what happens in a fiber will happen in another fiber nearby, but not conneccted to another fiber. Perhaps between chips laid one on top of another with no real connection.
Actually I believe in evolution. I was just playing devil's advocate. But, it just seems that things don't always fit quite right with theories that are out there.
I didn't mean for insects to be bigger, but was making an example. What new species are springing forth though? Not breeds of dogs that are artificially created by men, but new species. Dogs have been bred for their temperament so that doesn't count. I hear of extinctions all the time, not once have I heard of a new species rising due to the environmental changes that have occurred.
ok, but why aren't there other animals thatcan play chess? I read somewhere that our lifespans getting longer has extended our knowledge. But there are many animals with much greater lifespans. You say there are some animals with varying degrees of inteligence, but why has none others come up that are starting to write or comunicate like we do? If it is opposable thumbs why don't monkeys invent things. I understand that evolution takes millions for species to evolve, but if we evolved from chimpanzees, then why did some not evolve? I see more proof of creation, by God or by alien intervention, than I do for evolution. Rather than just pushing it off and saying there are some inteligent animals, answer the points of the conversation. Show real evidence of evolution rather than just guessing something came from something. They used to say that genetically we were very close to chimpanzees, but since the genome project there are huge discrepancies now. Different animals go extinct at different times, but who is to say that everything that is here now wasn't here to a lesser degree then. there could have been more of other species and less of others but now because of room created by the extinction of other animals, others have risen to greater prominance. They have found mondern man skeltal remains as far back as millions of years ago, so why have we not changed more drastically due to evolution? I just don't see any proof that is positive for any of the given theories yet.
so from this thesis you assume that things have evolved from unicellular animals to what we are today. Why is it that things are not still evolving? Why don't we see new and strage species cropping up all the time? Is everything perfect now? Why don't people have 4 arms? I know that this would be a great feature that would make dificult work much easier. There are insects with six legs why don't they evolve from an exoskeleton to in internal skeleton so they can grow bigger? I realize that everything has its place and there are cycles, but what I am getting at is why has another animal not evolved with inteligence? Why do dogs that have lived with humans for thousands of years not evolved into a more inteligent being to be able to communicate with us better. Evolution is a great theory an it explains some environmental factors but it farfrom explains everything.
actually there is an issue that I came across that will cause this to happen when upgrading to sp1. the solution was to reinstall system restore. It will either lock it up or send it into an eternal reboot.
It doesn't say so or not but perhaps they were using a picture from the story and linking to that also. I didn't see the original story and the one they showed didn't have a picture. But, linking to pictures is a no-no isn't it? Perhaps they are taking that point of view a little to far on something like this.
Try quitting the Communist Party. That should improve your viewpoint.
It is funny you should say that. It seems America is moving closer and closer to being a socialist society. We just had Medicare say that obesity was a sickness so now we will have more tax dollars go to people who can't stay away from McDonald's and get some exercise. We work longer and longer every year to pay our share of the taxes. Soon those who work will get no real money and everyone will be on state aid with all our earnings going to the state. Those who can't work(probably most if the current trend persists)won't.
I don't bother with downloading anything. Almost everything I use is open source software. I can find alternatives for everything I need and I can imagine other peolple can also. I think many of the students who used to downoad look for oss alternatives also it is easier than trying to find a crack or possibly get something with a trojan.
I know what you mean. They are rating movies 'R' now adays just because someone smokes a joint or slaps a woman. What happened to movies like Porky's or Fast times at Ridgemont High that you could expect to get a good boob shot or two.;)
While a lot of people here are going to say, "wow, everyone is going to go to Mozilla/FireFox."
I have heard on the radio from a few people, that will connect with a lot of people, telling people they should avoid IE. Kim Komando Show and Harry Brinker money show were a couple that I remember but I have heard and seen others. I think that there will be a shift in market share for browsers, but maybe not as big as it needs to be.
I guess if they are looking for MS standards it is ready for primetime:)
No but really, I did try it to do a business card. It works pretty good. It is a nice simple interface with not to much garbage. Everytime I would unselect grid under the view menu it would crash though. Did it everytime.
it seems to me that with the way that spam is now adays we are taking the wrong approach. Why don't they make a filter assuming everything is spam, and then just filter out the good email? I realize that a white list does just this with the email address, but to take it a step further, look at what the content is and filter according to words or phrases you want to see like 'the kids are doing great.' I can't see this getting any more false positives then what we are using now:)
I have people do this all the time without any problems. I have the WinXP firewall enabled then connect and go to windows update. No one has an issue doing it this way.
I have tried many other distros. I personally stick with slackware because it is somuch easier to set up and configure the way that I want to. I don't have to worry about breaking crap all the time and it isn't released until it is stable, unlike most of the other bug ridden distros. If you haven't used slack in five years you have no clue what you are talking about.
After reading this I thought to look at my laptop. And what to my surprise I didn't have any swap. It turns out a couple of weeks ago I was playing with swsusp and it had corrupted my swap space and it wasn't loading. I never noticed but after the fact I realized some of the stuff that was going on was because of this. I tried openening a large pdf file and it was taking forever to load and seemed to almost lock up my system. Same thing happened when compiling a few programs and other things similar. I guess with 196 MB of Ram you want to have some swap:)
do you honestly think Bill Gates would go to the county jail? Yes it does make a difference in the united states. Stars, rich people, politicians often go to what is called minimum security prisons. In these it is very lax and they can lead their lives pretty much normally but can't go down the street to a store.

They both worked for me
Yes,but it is an integral part of the Operatng System. If they open sourced that then it would have to include the the whole ball of wax wouldn't it?

If this is the case I for one can not wait for our Communist overlords :)

hehe got me there. I meant proprietary software through p2p networks. Should have been more specific.
here are a few good math programs: ;)
Scilab, Octave, r-project, And for making webpages emacs works great

I don't know, I found this that talks about PAN(personal area netowrk) from 1995
I have people do this all the time without any problems. I have the WinXP firewall enabled then connect and go to windows update. No one has an issue doing it this way.
Like this one?

You can fix the mouse pad. I have an averatec also. Just go here.
