Richard Dawkins asks this very fundamental question, why reproduce (sexually or asexually) using seeds and embryos? Why not propagate by cuttings and cloning?
Number one, nature is a horrible analogy to use in comparison with software; two, Darwin adequately answered this question and I think Dawkins should know the answer; three, every piece of software is not simply a rehashing of old code-- tons of it is brand new.
Well, that's a pretty vague definition. I suppose as long as the thing turns on, you could say it's "running computer operations". Weaselly.
The fact that this is an nx9420 almost solidifies the fact that some functionality may not be present, because the nx-series of HP laptops is sometimes referred to as their "experimental" series, which is where the "x" comes from (at least this is how I was informed by my former HP Certified co-workers).
I hope they were joking with you. Experimental laptops begin sold? By the way, the Integrity I64-based servers are the rx series. Are my clients using experimental servers to run their financial institutions?
I'm wondering if the fact that it may be a derivative work of Tracs could actually be a bigger issue. The article didn't make it clear whether he actually modified parts of Tracs or just wrote an interface to it.
it's safe to say that when environmentalists say we are going to end the planet they mean it in the context of humankind.
Environmentalists are not and never have been interested in helping mankind. They are simply an alliance between the ivory-tower preservationists and the Gaia-theory radicals who would frankly prefer that the earth swallow up all the filthy parasite humans (except them and their nature-worshipping friends, of course) and spit out the bones.
Conservationists are the ones who are truly concerned about preserving natural resources for future generations, and appropriately restoring and maintaining balance in the ecosystem.
Is your company properly mime-encoding the emails so that plain-text readers (old clients, screen readers, and people who just want text) can actually read the email? Or are they simply dumping markup in the body like most of the other Frontpage-suckled morons?
The US continues to use some idiot system of measurement based on some dead dude's foot.
Because it is far more logical to use a unit of measure based on the distance light travels in a vacuum in 1/299,792,458 seconds (measured by a cesium-133 atomic clock, of course).
Of course, you could count the 3K military killed because of a fundamentalist Christian violating his own rules about bearing false witness
Are you an adult, that you know the difference between a lie and a mistake? Well, since you seem to know so much about Christianity, before pointing out the speck in another's eye you should remove the plank from your own.
It would have been a lot better if my crew had actually done something, rather then forcing me to run over to the engineering console to increase power to the sensors myself while in the middle of a battle with two enemy starships.
I always love the idea that many USians think basic human rights so important that only US citizens deserve them.
I didn't realize that "not being fingerprinted" is a basic human right. Somebody dig up John Locke! Getting your fingers dirty so that you can be positively identified is not equivalent to being searched, detained, having personal items confiscated, etc.

One word for you: Heisenberg.
Have a nice day! Hope I didn't determine your mental state!You don't need a 64-bit CPU. Theoretically, you just use an unsigned 32-bit integer.

Not forever, but for at least a few minutes before it crashes.
You heard it here, kids. Now, eat up on those salty fries and chips! As for me, I'll have extra on the rim of my next margarita, please!
I find it hard to believe that Nirvana could be considered "pretentious tossers." Yeah, maybe Cobain's girl... but not the band.

Uhh... the Prius is only plug-in with after-market modification. In case you didn't notice, Ford has had an Escape hybrid for years now.
No, but NT4 came out in 1996. Read the post again.
If you RTFA, you can do exactly that with the tzedit utility. But an admin who has to fix hundreds of machines would like an automated method.
Who's going to stop them? The U.N.?
Seaworld? Are they going to use TCP/IP over dolphin carrier?
And don't tick off the police, or they'll handcuff you to a car with a leaky gas tank.

Err... fingerprinting doesn't mean "jailing". Kind of a straw man, don't you think?
