You forget that standards of living are very poor in the 3rd world, still, where birthrates are still through the roof. As medicines are brought in to sort out disease, the death rate decreases, natural increase shoots up and you end up with the population explosion we saw in the industrial revolution.
The population of the world is still going up very quickly.
Realistic/good graphics add to the fun by making the game more believable or immersive. It's a lot more satisfying to blow up a tank with a gout of flame, black smoke and mangled bits of tank flying around than to watch, say, a brown box disappear. Or turn into 6 brown rectangles.
Graphics ADD to the fun. They don't create it, but real people often value graphics about as highly as gameplay, so if BZFlag wants to be a "momentuous" project, they need to start thinking beyond those people stuck in the 90s.
A parasite takes without giving, but if a parasite, resident in its host, kills the host, it dies alongside it, unless it bails out in time (e.g. in nature, to complete its breeding cycle).
The body can only convert certain things into other things, but since it can convert, this is generally true.
The body does not digest cellulose, nor can it synthesise protein, which is why eating protein is necessary.
One thing, though: Sugar IS carbohydrate. Glucose is C6H12O6 (sorry for the lack of subscripting) I.E. Carbon (carb) Hydrogen (hydr) and Oxygen (ate is the ending for xxx+some oxygen)
There are different forms of sugar, but all sugar - sucrose, maltose, lactose, glucose, fructose et al, are all carbohydrates. Freely interchangeable. The thing about sugars is that they're pure forms of carbohydrate - bread has sugar, plus other bits and pieces like fibre, and it is digested sugar (glucose) that is used for energy stored - either as glycogen or fat. Therefore, because sugar has such a high carbohydrate content, it IS more fattening than, say bread. But not by calorie content, as you say.
The only thing is that certain things are a) higher in calorie density and b) easier to keep in their current form than synthesize into something else. Proteins don't become calories, I believe.
Actually, Linux is colloquially used to refer to kernel + operating system. "I use Linux" does not refer to just the kernel, but the operating system.
The way it can be seen is that Linux is a "feature" of all the distributions. However, as it is the common feature, it can also be used as a heading for the distributions. Another common feature of distributions is that they're all operating systems, so Linux in a roundabout way means operating system.
In technical usage, this is incorrect, but often it is the usage.
Never mind every single English dialect. Who could forget Scottish (Och aye!) Mancunian (That's 'angin!) Liverpudlian (Calm down!) etc.
We shouldn't clamp down on dialects, rather thwack people for not typing 'you' 'I' ''' 'your' and not using the shift key.
Yeah, for assassination, they'd probably just find some other method. The thing about random violence is that hopefully if the prosecution probability is high enough, they'll just not bother.
With assassination, there is an actual motive to kill whoever this soul is, so if the prosecution probability for shooting is too high then, hey - poison, strangulation, silenced weapons.
It appears that their privacy policy is a load of crap, stating that URLs are not transmitted. A new version of the internet, perhaps?
Anyway, this calls into question the reliability of the entire policy, and besides - whilst submitting requests to adservers, you're automatically given tracker cookies.
They're blockable in the long run, but in the end it's cat and mouse, so it's evil enough for me.
Notice that The Cheat uses a Mac to create is wondrous animations.
For those unfortunate souls who were unaware of "Eh Steve," you should spend the rest of this day watching every H*R cartoon on that site.
Hmm... I use FF, too and the only problems I have are with the main content being flush against the sidebar... I don't think it's ever overlapped, but it good do with a margin.
That said, I use live bookmarks to access the site, so it's possible I'm bypassing the broken bits.
Well, it wasn't very funny, speaking as a Brit. You might want to remember that "hideous, unlikeable" is insult, not comedy, and that Americans are just Brits on an extended holiday.
This appears to be something those still living here regret - I don't wonder why when someone starts insulting us for correct, British spelling.
Yeah, I prefer the Trillian GUI to almost anything else I've seen. Especially in the default skin (at least in the free version) where you have that large globe, whereby you can easily access all areas of the program.
Historically, temperatures have risen before the start of another Ice Age. We're approximately at the right time for another Ice Age.
People who say that other people are not informed but "informed" often haven't even bothered looking at the facts themselves.
The crux of the problem is that the earth is such a complicated place, and we cannot know exactly what's going on in its climate.
There is no doubt, however, that there is too much pollution. Whether it is causing a rise in temperature is NOT certain. This I believe is where how informed you are comes in - there ARE two sides, but only in certain areas. If you're arguing that pollution doesn't matter, you're wrong. (To put it arrogantly.)
Google's pretty much a misspelling, anyway. The original word is 'googol' meaning 10^100. Incidentally, this was the £1,000,000 question on WWTBAM, when the cheater was on. He didn't know it, but everyone in my family did...:|
The point is that lack of caffiene will cause withdrawal if you have previously drunk a lot.
The problem that I see with the case is that people who drink 9 cups of coffee in a day and then expect no adverse effects are just plain stupid. Normal consumption of coffee doesn't seem to impair those around me - it's those who have a coursework session from 1-6, or those who drink 5+ cups regularly.
Yes, caffiene is addictive. Yes, this is blatantly obvious and no, those who drink coffee normally don't suffer ill effects.
Of course, not everyone drinks in moderation, but then, at least coffee doesn't appear to make people violent, or cause car accidents. Caffiene is nowhere near as bad as alcohol, as far as drugs go. However, Marijuana is nowhere near as bad as Tobacco, so we may see more nonsensical laws (I'm not suggesting that caffiene is about to be classified)
Point being, if you've got fuck loads of cash, then you can afford to pay £20,000 for 10 seconds in space. Space tourism just requires the public to be able to buy tickets to get into space - it's not far off, at all, IMHO.
Think about it - if Rutan succeeds, then he's proved that his vehicle is reusable. This shows that that he can take people into space and all it takes from there is for him to take someone from the public into space.
Space tourism isn't about taking people to the moon - that's definitely a long way off. The first bit is just getting people into space, and people will pay for it.
Are you out of your mind? Google has the least evil ads in the world - in fact, sometimes they're useful. (i.e. I have clicked on Google's ads, never on any others, except inadvertently)
With the ads at the side, you can quickly glance at them and most importantly, quickly determine their relevance. Not relevant - move on.
In that case, my knowledge falls over, because I've never used Slack. I myself am quite a competent user, but do not have the knowledge to configure a printer by editting/etc/printcap, nor do I know how to configure users using passwd, etc.
(I do know how to do the equivalents with a network, though!)
I'd prefer to have a nice easy to use GUI app to configure these for me, but of course I have Linux's lovely configurability still waiting behind the shiny exterior.
I guess there is something that's a bit harder with Slackware than with, say, Fedora or SuSE, especially in the setup phase. Perhaps it is this people believe hinder it.
I, on the other hand, am looking forward to when I can ditch FC2 and move onto Gentoo, Slackware or Debian - hopefully I'll be able to configure whatever I choose as easily as I can now, because configuring Linux is like a dream.
Does it have the equivalent of YaST or system-config-*? These are the configuration apps that make an easy distro, not the fact that you can install things.
Can you get a package management system? Can you get the equivalent of yum, urpmi or apt-get?
The "Desktop User" often doesn't want to find/etc/inittab to use a graphical login, so for a distro aimed it one it should have a GUI config utility, in a menu, that allows him to do so.
So far, there've been less vulnerabilites in the Mozilla codebase. So far, Microsoft has had far more time and far more people to work on their project. So far, Firefox STILL has a product that vastly outdoes Microsoft's attempt.
Any software will have bugs and holes in, the difference is the frequency and the rate of fixing - note that this is ALREADY FIXED.

accent: manner of speaking or pronouncing
An accent does not use different words. I'm sure there is a Texan dialect, but that wasn't an example ;-)
Technically a typo, not a grammar problem.
Never mind every single English dialect. Who could forget Scottish (Och aye!) Mancunian (That's 'angin!) Liverpudlian (Calm down!) etc.
