Actually that was probably my favorite episode (both parts combined) from the entire series of Voyager. Mainly because I did kind of like how it tied into the entire Kes "travelling backwards in time" storyline. I always thought that they would just blow off that torpedo scene. It comes back though and Voyager acts on it remembering her warning from the previous season.
What I did think was lame was that they seemed to draw a few episodes off of that 2-parter.
The concept of changing history by combining and splitting parallel universes was pretty intriguing to me. They could have really spawned an entire season out of that concept..02
If any of you had bothered to read the content of the two eXeem stories you would realize that one says, "Open Public Beta" while the other says, "Just days after the release of eXeem Open Beta comes eXeem lite 0.19 Public Beta."
The last time I checked, none of the money for the inauguration was "ponied up" from the city of DC. Or did you miss the entire article at the top of this story?
Gravity is a theory. Changing your mind about it will not give you the power to fly. To confuse the two meanings deliberately in a children's textbook, as this does, is a deliberate lie.
Actually, it is a law. We don't say the Theory of Gravity we say the Law of Gravity. Once a theory becomes law it is a known 100% disprovable fact throughout the known Universe.
A Theory is always disprovable, whether it is by another theory or what have you.
You also don't hear about the Law of Evolution, you hear about the Theory of Evolution. Once again, it is either not 100% provable or it is challenged by another Theory.
This person makes a valid point and it gets modded down to -1 (Troll) because it speaks the truth. Why?
Linux is definitely far from user-friendly. Now financially it might be hitting the mainstream hallmark but as far as usability and the "getting grandma on the internet" factor it has a LONG way to go.
Wikipedia was set up as a very big experiment. As with all experiments you will have problems and run the risk of eventual failure.
Maybe a completely free online encyclopedia is just impossible. There are hundreds if not thousands of revisions done on Wikipedia each day and to have a team sit there to review each update and research it would be monotonous without a paid team of researchers.
As well, having a team of professionals review their particular field on the online encyclopedia surely will not come free. Perhaps Wikipedia has hit a stopping point, if not slowing point?
It was very much needed. What has Halo 2 brought to the table that is innovative compared to the other games released this year?
Rome: Total War
Doom 3
Half-Life 2
etc etc
Halo 2 is over-hyped dribble. Maybe worth picking up from the bargain bin in a year or so.
For that, Halo would have to be revolutionary to say the least. None of the Halo games have really contributed to pushing the envelope to date.
Seriously, what is so great about Halo? Doom 3 brought a great graphical and gaming engine and Half-Life 2 really upped the ante for in-game physics. Halo 2... built up lines at the store at midnight.
For most of the business end of the company that is. I work for a non-profit as well and I run everything in my power on Microsoft. Why? Because it is the most compatible with what is out there.
I don't have time to sit around and learn an entire new infrastructure from such (apparently) great helpful linux zealots on/. because apparently there is no help to be had.
Windows works with the majority of the applications that are out there and if this person is purchasing through Dell as a vendor for their equipment in bulk they get a great deal of the Windows OS at cut-rate prices, including the server-end. Why would one not go for Windows? A non-profit has enough to keep up with without having to worry about a steep learning curve.
Also, the general turnaround for most non-profits as far as money goes is around 30%-40% to the donation. The rest goes to keeping the company going (employees, maintenance, bills, lease payments etc).
This person also didn't state where the donations were coming from. For all you pinheads know the money is coming from corporations who form partnerships with the non-profit. The general public might not even donate at all to this organization.
Confucius say better to remain silent than to open mouth and remove all doubt.
You're not taking into account the fact that they don't exactly need all of that money. The pricing is a standard price based on market standards, not actual need.
I think all MMORPG games are entirely too expensive. I would seriously like to know where this money goes but as they are private companies no one will ever know.
Considering that you deal with users who don't really know what they are doing in the first place I would have to place the majority of the blame on them.
However you could also retrospecitvely place the blame on IT for not having the systems locked down in the first place but then you would have to blame the CEO and the board for not putting more technology in the budget. Yea we won't go there.

Wasn't the original series only cast for a 5 year run any way?
I don't know much about the original series but I always thought that was the story with it.
So in essence it did complete its run.

Doh!
Or perhaps the "Hook 'Em Horns" symbol from the University of Texas.
Man, Satan sure took over fast!

With news like this then January 24th WILL be the worst day of the year for me! My resolution can only take so much bombardment!
Sure it is parallel. The "space" would still exist, humans just wouldn't.
Well of course he existed. That isn't in question.
What he claimed to be true about our existance and the Creator is what has been in question.

How is that off-topic? Isn't KDE just another API? Seems pretty relavent to me.

The Swastika is rotated 45 degrees from what you see in Wolf3D. So technically the child is right.
Perhaps it is you that needs a history lesson?

I work for the texas state park
You mean we here in Texas have only one state park?
Thank you Joseph Stalin.
I always thought that everyone just ran their own shard these days.
I have the FX5950 and I don't have the DX problem you speak of. Nope, I think the problem is in the emulation.

It's going to be ok man. Have a smoothie and think about happy things.
We can sit here and play conspiracy theory all day but where will we really get?
So does this mean that to play .YHO or whatever files I'll need to add yet ANOTHER player to my machine to only support that one format?
.MOV and Realplayer for .RM & .RA.
I hope it's not true. I already have Quicktime for
All of these media companies need to release the source for their proprietary sub-standard audio codecs.
