Much as I like BitTorrent and want to see it take over all downloads (seriously), it pains me to see new BT sites when the BT protocol is banned from my prospective university network. Any helpful suggestions?
I meant more with regards to when the volume of water drops. Unless you want it to vapourise when you've used above a certain amount you'll need to add a gas to the container to make up for lost volume. Surely then any acceleration would force the water to a specific part of the holding tank, removing the shielding from parts of the craft until it stabilises again?
I don't know how well collapsing water bags would work though.
The key thing for two of the modes seems to be the knowledge of where a file came from. So tell me, is this IE only functionality that the file's metadata is tagged as 'downloaded'?
I agree. Originally when Longhorn and winFS was announced I went "Great, a tag-based file system". Then "Oh, the eye-candy alone is going to need 512MB of RAM. That's gonna be disabled by default". By now it's "Meh, I'll wait until VistaSP1 in the hopes that the bugs are fixed and there are actually some new features."
Look moderators, if you're going to mod me down at least use a sensible moderation. What I posted wasn't redundant, it was overrated. If there was a -1 Wrong moderation I'd recommend that, but since there isn't there's no use in modding redundant. If anything is redundant, it's parent for posting his comment 8 minutes after 3 other people.
Okay, since evidently the ACs still don't have the balls to even post a correction with a username, I'll reply here instead of wasting time replying individually.
Since I was talking to someone who thinks balloons can lift items past the atmosphere, I felt there was a need to somewhat simplify things.
A rocket does not *need* something to push against, but something being there for the expanding gasses to be reflected from does assist. The much used laws of Newton (every action = opposite reaction) which mean a rocket can work in space also mean that the exhaust gasses colliding with something, such as the ground, produces an equal force in the opposite direction. Spacecraft maneuver just as much by pushing against their own exhaust gasses as they do by using newton's laws.
Balloons could be used to gain some kind of lift, thereby only needing lower powered boosters until such point as high powered boosters kick in to take the payload to orbit.
The big issue as far as I can see is that boosters need something to kick against, and at the moment they use the ground to get the vast majority of their initial thrust, then the thicker atmosphere to get up enough speed. With only a low velocity and thinner atmosphere for the 'big kick' to reach orbit, you'd need equivalent fuel and engines for a normal launch.
The only possible alternative is that the engines kick against the upwards velocity from a balloon 'carrier', therby pushing the balloons down and the ship upwards. Giving enough lift using balloons and the initial launch thrusters for a second-stage to kick against without expending massive amounts of fuel is in itself going to need a lot of fuel and balloons on the carrier.
So, you have a large fuel inefficient carrier providing limited lift, at which point large inefficient boosters push against this carrier to lift the load into orbit...
It's called multiple stage launches, and has been used since day one.
As far as I can tell *most* of the actual mouse bits (left and right click, tracking) are using standard USB mouse drivers. The trackball and squeezy I'm not sure about.
It does give you an option, but iirc the option is only available from a command-line install with an obscure switch. Alternatively, a network based installation with appropriate settings should be alright to do the same.
I bet you're one of these people that say "I hate it when sites go "Viewed best with Internet Explorer" aren't you?
NEVER discriminate based on browser type. Just code to the standards, and when people go "Your site sucks" you can reply with "If you use a browser which speaks the same language as the rest of the world, no it doesn't."
And if it's illegible and they don't stay any longer, it's not like you've lost a visitor other than if you used your Javascript "IE sucks" message.
Part of the reason I like macs for new computer users is you don't have 'left' or 'right' click. You just click, and the interface is designed to deal with this.
On the other hand, it's a very sexy mouse and I'm tempted to get one for my XP machine.
Oh will you all fuck off with your 'MS sucks, Linux is the answer' crap. If I want, I can damn well install just as much spyware on a Linux box, and it will crash as often as I want it to.
Most spyware is installed by clueless users. When the clueless users move to Linux, what is going to happen? My gods! They're going to install Claria Linux Edition!

I'd personally say it is the job of the hardware to conform to a common instruction set, which would make everyone's lives a hell of a lot easier.
PHP stands for "PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor". Long live recursive acronyms.
It used to stand for "Personal Home Page".
It also enables you to use Personalised Searching based on your search history. Head over to https://www.google.com/accounts/ to see all the options.
No, if you remove the cookie you remove the key so Google no longer knows who you are.
Alternatively, if you log on to Google before searching it makes no difference.

Descending below the atmosphere would be quite painful.
This mission is STS-114, there were 2 critical failures in 113 missions.
Does quantum cause that much interference at carbon nanotube scales?

And end up with nicely ionised, irradiated water?
What about when you run out?

Although I have once seen it put in three boot options for the *same* OS. Same partition, same boot settings, everything.
No difference here.
Umm...

If it's a plural of wife's it should be wives', so technically he's wrong either way.
wife (singular)
wife's (singular posessive)
wives (plural)
wives' (plural posessive)
But do you really want your downloads slowed by his X-Box playing?
If people would bother with QoS then the system would work far better anyway. Bring on IPv6 and its forced priority tagging in the packer headers!
I thought Tic-Tacs were 2Kcal each?

It should be more like Macs.
