  1. Re:Ummm on Cell Phone Radiation Excites the Brain · · Score: 1, Funny

    Even if the shifter were on the steering column (pretty uncommon in cars made after oh, about 1965) how would you drive one-handed? "Sorry for skating across three lanes of traffic, officer. I was trying to put it in third."
    That's why god gave you KNEES

    Nah, just give me emacs
    You'd have a nice OS there, but you're lacking a good text editor :P

  4. Re:You can see where they're going on Microsoft Unveils 'Vista Premium' Requirements · · Score: 0

    It's also noteworthy that Vista requires OEMs to have some kind of networking ability. While this is a given by today's standards, I find it very curious that an operating system REQUIRES me to have it.
    You know, just because you have a network card it doesn't mean you have something plugged into it. Start worrying when they demand Wi-fi

    After all, nobody wants to be without a phone: it's uncool.
    Please say you're kidding. It's impractical, not uncool.

    Some kids who have barely enough to eat own cellphones... it all depends on their culture. Would they rather:
    • Get high, do nothing all day long,
    • Learn, get a degree OR
    • Suck the state's tit?
    (Combine options at will)

    In here we already have the plentiful crops, we need the idiots to stop sucking up to the demagogue government, do better (technical) jobs and freaking improve the coutry

    Are you kidding? Pretty much the only developed countries in the Americas (western world) are the US and Canada. West != developed.

    BBAAARRRGHHHHH
    Read a frickin' laser mailing list!!!! there are mirrors more than 99% reflective available to the hobbyist for under $2000. Plus, the missile would be travelling really fast (lots of air) and the stand for the mirror could have a radiator. It's just a matter of power and time.

    Regarding mounting it on a jet or on ground...
    If you're gonna use mirrors you have the same range from a static ground base as from a jet. The latter is more difficult to shoot accurately.
    On the other hand, a satellite with a nuclear power supply and a bigass laser...

    I'd like to know what school you go to. Here, we get physics from 10th grade onwards (sorry if 10th grade doesn't exist but I don't understand the US system) and I bet we won't be seeing light or waves. Hell, we probably won't see trigonometry till next year :(

    They are alive and kicking here. In fact, we have a very annoying advertisement of a free dial-up provider which consists of an annoying guy who seems to be rapping. Sucks bad.

    You play a middle G once, then you play it after playing for a minute, it's going to be a different pitch because your horn's warmed up, it's going to sound different because your embouchure has adapted
    Our music teacher told us that, when you heard musicians with their instruments before the play, they were heating up their instruments. You say you just adjust....

    That doesn't mean you only get 800W, it means you get 1000W but the power supply consumes more than that (I think)
