Hey guys, let's say you have a 500 foot pole out in space, far away from anything (no friction, nothing). you are on one end of the pole, and i on the other. Then i push the pole towards you. When does the other end of the pole move towards you, after MY END MOVES? is it instantaneous? or does it take.000000005 seconds of whatever. Like the atoms of the pole push each other on and on and so forth till it gets to the end. if it does take time, is it faster than light, or slower? what if the pole was 300,000,000 meters long? does it take about 1 second for u to notice the other end moves?
Do not try to push the pole. That's impossible. Instead, only try to realize the truth: there is no pole. Then you'll see, it is not the pole that is pushed, it is only yourself.
Are universe is infinitely small when viewed outside of it. Is it even mathematically possible to have something that's infinitely small on the outside and infinitely large on the inside? Could that explain quantum entanglement?
5. Am I correct that programming in and selling BSD-based boxes won't raise any of the above problems?
YES!!! The BSD license is basically a wordier version of the MIT license, which is displayed below:

The Mac mini has a Core Duo processor and the low end model, Mac mini 1.66 GHz Combo, has approximately the same computational power as a Pentium 4 3.0GHz Prescott with an 800MHz FSB and DDR400 RAM.
"Macs are still more expensive, and as far as I'm concerned". "The reason the Dell came out so expensive" "is that he insisted that the Dell have the exact same specs as the mac."
He didn't say Christian, he said Christian Science. Christian Science really does discourage the use of most modern medicine, including blood transfusions. They believe illness can be cured by prayer and growing closer to God, and intervening with conventional medicine will counteract or contradict that process.
What's so bad about that? It's a self correcting problem.
"I notice they're not closed for Jewish holidays. As a jewish person, I always find that interesting."
They're open on Sunday*...
"Ye shall keep the sabbath therefore; for it is holy unto you: every one that defileth it shall surely be put to death: for whosoever doeth any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people.
Six days may work be done; but in the seventh is the sabbath of rest, holy to the LORD: whosoever doeth any work in the sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death." Exodus 31:14~15 and Exodus 35:2
So if you believe in a literal interpretation, can I kill you for working on Sunday? It's a god given right yea know. We should kill everyone who works on Sunday, it's what the bible says we should do and the bible is always right.
"I know plenty of Christians that are perfectly happy with evolution and science."
No you don't. "The big bang, and evolution, invalidates a literal interpretation of the Old Testament, especially Genesis.
Genesis -> Eve -> Sin -> Jesus -> Salvation = Christianity.
A symbolic interpretation of Genesis invalidates Christianity. This is why all Christians have to believe in creation pseudo science." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IFcZUe0ADpY
Pre_Alpha = Feature incomplete and lots of bugs. Alpha = Feature complete and lots of bugs. Beta = Feature complete and less bugs. RC = Speak up if you still have bugs. Release = Since no one is speaking out we'll assume it's golden. Release Patch = We missed some obscure stuff.
If you look at the download torrent it says "pre-alpha development snapshot".
Is it just me or does emacs go completely against the grains of *nix philosophy? i.e. simple, modular, parsimony, etc. The emacs base distribution is 126 megabytes, larger then the FreeBSD operating system... How did emacs get to be like this?
Now that Intel's back in the drivers seat we can leverage AMD into releasing ATI chipset documentation. Send a message that we won't stand for this bullshit anymore... boycott them.

"Why not just leave the spectrum completely open to the public like 900MHz and 2.4GHz?"
That would be great... But I'd rather have something around 450 MHz. 450 MHz is easier to propagate, compared to 900 and 2400 MHz, and it's also cheaper to make equipment and cabling for it. 450 MHz would be great for longer links and mesh networking.
You mean most of your devices. Professional photographers have standardized on CF. We've dumped millions into CF gear and it will be around for a very long time.

Well, considering that VMWare has been rushing to put together a Mac VMWare long since Bootcamp came out...
You are clueless... http://www.parallels.com/products/coherence/
You forgot step 2... Pay $200 to get out of the contract you signed with AT&T.
"What if (say) Microsoft was including some Apple products in Vista - and hadn't responded to Apple's questions for 22 days. Would you be saying "Calm down, give Microsoft some more time to seek legal advice"?"
Of course not, I hate Microsoft.
"My favorite errata in the list is AI22, Sequential Code Fetch to Non-canonical Address May have Nondeterministic Results. Basically the chip decides that all of the high order bits should be '1', instead of '0' - for no apparent reason as its not consistent."
That's not a bug, it's a random number generator.

Umm... That's classified.
Your right, the Dell is a bad deal... It can't even run OS X for Pete's sakes!

Wouldn't that be an apples to apples comparison?

What about OpenOffice Draw? It works fairly well for light DTP needs and it has a nifty built in PDF export feature.
