Nobody mentioned that both of these sentences are gibberish, if not completely incorrect.
Time does not fly like an arrow. There is absolutely no point incomparing time with an arrow.
The second one is even worse. It fails the subject/object agreement test. Fruit flies like bananas. At best fruit flies like a particular banana (fruit flies like the banana or that banana).
It is not very hard to tell the difference once the sentences make sense.
That's not always true. I know plenty of apartment buildings where the "first" floor is G or L and the next one is 1. Also, where I went to college one building had a floor 0. Another had a 1st floor (ground level in some areas) followed by 2nd floor, followed by floor P (ground level at other areas) followed by 3rd and so on. And some connected buildings where 3rd floor became 2nd floor and so on.
I remember Windows advertisements when Windows 95 first came out. They had the computer genie commercials on the radio and 30-minute infomercials on TV. That has dried up quickly, however.
That's phisics. Unless of course you are talking about the.5 part. However, I learned that particular equation as (at^2)/2, so I wouldn't have that problem.
My problem with all the online maps (and most other maps) in the US is that there are no train stations listed on any of them. And I'm not just talking about small commuter rail, but large stations too. Penn Station Shoe Repair anyone? Or 30th street hair station? Yes, I suppose you could approximate where the real station is by names of nearby businesses, but why?
And what if you don't know the name? Searching for "Train Station" in NYC returns "Perth Amboy Station" as the first train-related match because it has a Wi-Fi hotspot. Railroad Station gives better results for NYC thanks to Amtrak, but not all Amtrak stations have a "Station Services" location. In Iselin, NJ (Metropark Station) the first result is for Newark.
I have this problem with the Ambient/Wunderground weather application. I must use it, though, because in all other apps relying on "official" readings the official data point is 12 miles (and currently 4 degrees) away.
Yes, it is very difficult to configure, but the system policy and other aspects of NT security provide extremely fine-grained control over what users, applications, machines, etc may or may not do.
Now if only it were pre-configured out of the box. But of course the minute Microsoft were to announce that any third-party application must be validated by MS to determine its default security rights, everyone would complain that MS gets to decide which programs make it to market.
Also,.NET allows applications to demand, request, or refuse permissions, so if the developer chooses to, the program will say upon startup "I am an E-Mail program and want to access nothing but my data folder." Then, (provided there are no holes in.NET) if there is a security hole in the app that would allow an attacker to, say, connect to IRC, the.NET security model will refuse this connection.
I bet the children love it though. I remember, growing up in the Soviet Union, mind you, after hearing fairy tails with all the kings, queens, and princesses and such, asking whether I could ever see a real king or queen (I've never seen one in person to this day. Met my congressman, though).
I actually tried that. The phone was not charging at all while in use and the battery went dead in the middle of a call due to the backlight turning on every time I accidentally disconnected the cable and had to reconnect it.
Interesting. I tried IE because of MS's hype, but I stayed with IE because it was better. So, when I tried IE3, it was no better than Netscape, so I didn't use it. IE4, however, was much better, so I stuck with it. It took much longer for me to switch away from IE, although I was exposed to all kinds of browsers (it helps when you're coding an address book conversion application). I decided to switch to Mozilla when I felt it has caught up with IE in late 2002. Then I had a huge computer crash. When I finally got a new computer, I tried Phoenix instead and was hooked
If it's anything like Verizon, then what they actually support is irrelevant due to their support being so bad. "Call Compaq and tell them that you need to have at least 50% of your memory free to use DSL." This was on an actual support call (two different techs told me this too) on an XP system with 512MB RAM.
Since we are in an interglacial (warm) part of a generally cold period, it can get a lot hotter if we're really heading for a hot period. However, it is actually still cooler than an average high point of an interglacial period even.

OpenOffice.Org does not seem to have this problem

So does the word "Spanish." So why not use it?
Can this not be replicated with an animated GIF? (I'm sure merging layers into one isn't that difficult)

This may be a stupid question, but what do you printer on a color printer when the screen is in black and white?

Or you could say 14*3600 (or if the developers are dumb, 14*60*60).

When has SCO ever developed anything?
Didn't the Vulcan science directorate declare them impossible?

Did they ever fix the bug that cuts off any frames that exceed a page? I'm using 1.0, so I'm asking about the latest trunk.
