I've lived a life and done things that none of my married friends could have dreamed of doing.
And, likewise, your married, kid-burdened friends have lived a life and done things that you could not possibly imagine. I speak from experience; having a kid was nothing like I imagined. For one, nobody told me it could be so much fun.
None whatsoever. It's going to be at the L1 Lagrange point; this means that repair missions are not really possible. This was an easy way for NASA administrators to avoid the long-term budgetary overhead incurred by upkeep. (That said, there's also a good science justification for putting the telescope at L1).
Been there, done that, even had a RAID-0 array for laughs. To be honest, not really worth the bother; apart from having faster access times, nothing is gained over an external 2.5" USB drive apart from weight and heat.
In its day, it *was* a poster child for innovation. That's why AT&T tried to steal it.
Claiming that, today, BSD is innovation free is like claiming that Casablanca is full of cliches. Technically correct, but completely missing the point.
...and in upgrading my laptop (from an abysmal Asus to an outstanding Lenovo), I took the decision to ditch ATI and go with NVidia. ATI drivers are slow, buggy, and change in unpredictable ways from one release to the next. The final straw was a driver upgrade that made the GPU run at 70 degrees *centigrade* when idling.
Whereas, with my new NVidia-based system, the drivers have been as solid as a rock.
I wish you good luck with ATI, but I fear you're in for a whole world of pain...
Well, the fact that our atmosphere is opaque to UV? If you want to do UV observations, and in particular UV spectroscopy, then going above the atmosphere is the only way to do it. Nothing on the ground will *ever* be able to observe in the UV.
Similar considerations apply to the mid- and far-IR -- the Spitzer space telescope can access wavebands that are simply not visible from the ground.
That's not the same as invading a country; killing all the leaders; and converting them to Christianity. Is it, now?
The fact is, Christianity involves proselytizing (look it up, fucktard) to a far greater extent than many other world religions, especially Judaism. To become a Jew other than by birth is not easy; as a religion, Judaism has little interest in converting others to their faith. Much the same applies to many eastern religions, such as Jainism.
Now, churl, I suggest you get your head out from Ms Coulter's cunt. It's particularly smelly up there, and you may catch somthing.
Well, that's a surprise for many folks, I imagine.
No one ever said that Iraq had anything to do with 9-11.
Quite right. Except for Bush, on 5/1/03:
"The liberation of Iraq is a crucial advance in the campaign against terror...We have not forgotten the victims of September the 11th -- the last phone calls, the cold murder of children, the searches in the rubble. With those attacks, the terrorists and their supporters declared war on the United States. And war is what they got."
...and Cheney, on 9/14/03:
"If we're successful in Iraq...we will have struck a major blow right at the heart of the base, if you will, the geographic base of the terrorists who have had us under assault now for many years, but most especially on 9/11."
Tell me, with your head so far up the Administration's ass, how do you get the Kool Aid into your mouth?
Judging from the depths of your political analysis, I expect this is because you've only just emerged from puberty. If you are so concerned about the war, then why vote for a party whose candidates support the war to a man?

Or, you could buy a laptop computer, such as an IBM T61p.
Dude, you forgot to to give us your SSN. Quick, tell us now, or the racists will win!

Why did the adored iPhone come out of what many regard as the most closed, tyrannically managed software-development shop on Earth?
What, the same closed, tyrannically managed software-development shop that built a complete, adored operating system around BSD?
Fuck off, Darl.

MOD PARENT UP -- this is the crux of the whole matter.
OK, but it is far more efficient as catalase (I mispelled it originally), than in simple solution. See http://www.madsci.org/posts/archives/2000-02/950039812.Bc.r.html
You've never poured hydrogen peroxide over manganese (a metal)? Boy, you're seriously undereducated....
More specifically, it foams because of catylase (an enzyme) in the blood. I'm not sure if iron plays any role in this...
I see your high-carbon steel, and raise you some tungsten carbide.
No truth. You're just the ignorant fuckwad who wasn't aware that the English say 'maths'.
Go away, Darl.
...for local people.

Tiktaalik -- a fish that was predicted to exist as an intermediate form. And then found, exactly where it was predicted.
How is $4500 equal to 45 grand per year? Are you really just some dumbass?

Not in the slightest.
