We were talking on #wikipedia about the longest word, and User:Kim Bruning did a search on Swiss-Prot for the longest protein, and it was an 8797 amino acid chain. So, I pasted it into notepad, replaced the letters with words, did some modelling with SWISS-MODEL, and made an article on Wikipedia.
Yes, and we've accomplished it already. If there's currently no reason to go back, why the hell do we keep doing it? Does NASA have some obligation to Tempur-Pedic???
So, it's alright for them to fly up to the useless space station and do their "experiments", but they can't head over to Hubble and do something useful with taxpayer money?
Back in my high school spanish class, the teacher made an offer that if anyone could figure out his Windows screensaver password (which was a spanish nickname his grandma gave him), he'd give that person an A for the year. The fool.
How else can you explain his change in appearance from something like this to this? He's clearly had the Michael Jackson nose job, cheek lifts, and a complete cranial restructuring, among other things...
This is just the beginning of his campaign to create a more secure human being, which will eventually include various bug fixes, tracking chips, emotion inhibitors, and one bionic extendo-grab arm.
A better question would be: Do you have anything worth protecting? Most of the people I've seen go to extreme lengths to keep worthless crap secure, just so they can go around telling everyone how secure their POS is.

Damn, this will be over 250,000 letters long. I'll get to work on it :)
I used a spell-checker. Don't worry.

sic means that the typo was intentionally kept from the article, and was not the result of the editor, for once.
Bill S. Gates, esq? A MOST EXCELLENT knight!
I read 1'3" at "1 foot, 3 inches" and, combining that with the Python foot icon, thought it was an article about the little-known Foot of Silence.
"But we have yet to even leave our own planet's gravity-well."
So our next mission should be to send someone out to infinity?
"Space travel, OTOH, is an accomplishment."
Yes, and we've accomplished it already. If there's currently no reason to go back, why the hell do we keep doing it? Does NASA have some obligation to Tempur-Pedic???
Is a gravitron where virtual gravitons live?

Probably something along the lines of, "I dunno..."
... microsoft.com gets hacked, and they send Frank Parker back in time 7 days to fix it...
I just started using this thing, and all of a sudden I heard a quiet "Move zig..." over the speakers....

Maybe because what's being edited is more special. Choose your meaning of "special".
Windows 3.1 and Notepad run nice and fast on my 3.2GHz 8GB RAM box.
Back in my high school spanish class, the teacher made an offer that if anyone could figure out his Windows screensaver password (which was a spanish nickname his grandma gave him), he'd give that person an A for the year. The fool.
Thus my saying he looked "something like" the first link, NOT that he looked exactly like the first link............

It's probably time for them to add "complete lack of functionality" to their Full List of Features...
Melinda probably hid the remote control and told Bill he'd get it back when he made a large donation.
Gate's dying regret is going to be, "I could have done more."
