gives an estimate of around 6,000 thousand short tons = 6,000,000 short tons of nitrogen oxides (NOx) and volatile organic compounds (VOC) for light-duty vehicles emissions in the U.S. in 2004. Perhaps the chart is mislabeled.
During my few minutes of googling, I came across the following, somewhat related, page:
All the graphing calculators I've tried (and I've tried more than a few...) can't graph basic functions like y=sin999x or y=1/x properly. Most won't attack let you enter equations as complicated as (gasp!) x^2+y^2=1. It would be nice if the graphing calculator companies would improve the graphing algorithms their products use (see my program GrafEq for example). Years ago, HP was working on a new calculator with us before top brass (C.F.?) decided that calculators were passe and decided to can all future calculator development.
What I would like is an inexpensive, small piece of hardware that would answer the phone and forward faxes and voice messages to email accounts. (It would have a POTS jack and an ethernet jack.) I've been doing this on and off with a linux box, but it would be nice to have a small dedicated device to do this. Does anyone know of one?
Private motoring should not be subsidized. At least not to the degree that it currently is (here in Canada at least). I think public transportation could be quite competitive in major cities if there was a level playing field.
Monetary Costs:
road construction and maintenance
road accidents
road policing
property taxes (should be applied to all roadways)
Other Costs:
environmental damage (smog, oil spills, etc.)
pedestrian concessions (stop lights, deaths, etc.) (In major cities, much of the speed of private transportation hinges on taking efficiencies away from pedestrians.)
Apple is almost certainly already licensed to use FAT as part of the cross-license agreement that was signed when Microsoft bailed Apple out of near bankruptcy.
If having over a billion dollars is near bankruptcy, I wouldn't mind being a little closer to the edge myself.
The hardware process of the LZW compression algorithm was what as patented. You can write GIF files without using compression (literal, clear dictionary, literal, clear dictionary... instead of following the compression algorithm
What confuses me is that there is no fixed LZW compression algorithm. I've written several, and they produce different results on identical input. It is the decompression algorithm that is fixed.
Who, the HELL, is modding that crap up? Seriously, what is wrong with you. I say "restrict", I get trolled with semi-litterate idiots who say that I said "ban".
Is this bizarro slashdot or something?
No, this cleary is the regular, non-bizarro slashdot.

GIF isn't limited to 256 colours as you can composite multiple frames to make up a single image. See http://www.peda.com/iag

They'd certainly survive typical DM gaming use (thowing at playthings^H^H^H^H^H^Hers) better than the six thousand dollar special on auction.
