What parent means to say is probably: "(*) Although there is much speculation concerning imaging resolution, any optical system is limited by diffraction. For example, a satellite with a 4m telescope at an orbit of 600km has a diffraction limited resolution of 10cm at 550nm (green light), so it certainly cannot read a license plate. Other effects such as an inhomogenious atmosphere further degrade resolution. The apogee of a typical filming mission would have been close to 100nm. Using the above calculation the resolution would have been less than 2 cm, or less than 1 inch."

We have all got "primitive" brains under our shiny new cortex. Maybe your "dreams of being naked in public" is just your neocortex interpretations of a more primitive survival training going on in your reptile brain.
1. Make buggy patch 2. Convince people that their computers are bricked because of damaged boot.ini 3. Buy "bricked" computers from ebay for the price of a brick 4. Input rescue disc into said "bricks" 5. Sell unbricked computers 6. Profit!
A previous episode of futurama has had a binary-joke. Benders room number is $ in binary ascii. So when I saw the binary code here I instantly tried to figure out what it said. It turned out the message was really IN the binary this time. 001100 010010 011110 100001 101101 110011

Isn't blizzard sending out patches every now and then when you start the game? Any of these patches could contain code to access files on your system and send data back to the servers. I don't see what's new here, more then that it's now a process called Warden instead of wow.exe (or whatever it may be called).
You can still see basic word order, if they use pre- or post-preposition and a lots of other things. You don't need to be able to speak the language documented to have use for the documentation.
I see no problem with that. Perhaps 100 Languages disappear, but seriously, if something doesn't get used, why force it to stay alive. If it is important it will get tought (like Latin), if not, its not a loss at all.
The problem is that lingustic typologiests cannot keep up their documantation of languages with the rate of which they go extinct. The more documented languages we have, the more material we have to figure out how languages evolve. It's like biological evolution, except we won't find any fossils.
It's not really the taxes which I dislike, I'm a student;) It's more the general moral amongst the citizens, and the way of thinking. The country is way too neutral, we bend too much according to what other countries (and EU of course) says, and it's reflected amongst the population. Few people stand up for what they think, and if you do you'll be labeled a proud idiot. We even have a name for the phenomenon - "Jantelagen". You're not allowed to be proud of yourself, and you're not allowed to think outside the political box. To be honest, I'm sick and tired of it.
I guess some people think Sweden is cool because of the pirate bay and how it's pretty much "ok" to download copyrighted material and such. But my guess is that we'll be just as the states within a couple of years.
"..wasn't it part of the theory that when you travel faster than lightspeed you travel into the future or past?"
You're always traveling into the future, just with different speed. And you can't travel to the past, since it would involve rearranging the entire universe except "yourself" to a previous point.
this was actually what I first thought it was to be used for, before I read the comments. I thought the preview was about how complicated commandline tools were to use with all there options, and gpref was an example of such a program.
If you own the proxy yourself, you can still be anonymous - by making it public. Then there is no way to tell if you are the one who used it or anyone else. Of course, if everyone who wanted to be anonymous would do this, everyone would know that every public proxy were only used by the owner itself, and then the whole thing would go moot.

unless you believe in "intelligent" design, life on earth wasn't synthesized. At least not by the definition of the word in this domain.

Resisting a normal arrow from a crossbow is nice and all, but how does it handle a fire arrow from a crassbow+1?

All I have to say is that we are going downwards, and I don't like it a bit.
In fact, I'll probably move away from here (sweden) asap.

I for one will have my camera ready, hoping to snatch some nice pictures.
