In layman's terms: You take a speaker, dump it in a vat of (heavy) water, and fire it up. Bubbles are produced by the soundwaves (with temperatures that reach many thousands of degrees in their interior), and hence fusion occurs. Duh!
This is nothing new. A picture of neurons, big deal. People are obviously more complex than their neurons, yet we don't give that any thought, why should I be amazed by seeing a small part of something with which I come in contact every day?
Doubtless, the lead developer has his sights on becoming governor of California. At least, that's what I hear happened to the last guy that was involved in Conan.
Does this make it install faster? How is it different from copying files? Going of on a rant, why are current installers so bloated? InstallShield is like 2 MB in itself, and MSI takes ages to install something. The only good installer I've seen is NSIS (and it's VERY good), it's like 30 KB, copies your files/makes whatever changes you want and that's it.
What do other installers do that make them take hours to finish?
That's very true. I always wonder why some programs have to be a few tens of megabytes (especially some shareware ones) and then a (usually open source) program comes along that's 1/10th of the size of the previous program and has more features (e.g. uTorrent vs everything else). I know that processor speed and memory are practically unlimited so you don't have to worry about them, but this is just stupid.
Here's what I do: Fire the task manager and start killing processes. When something you need closes, that one was needed. Same for when the system crashes.
When your fingerprints have been compromised (not very hard to do) you can't change them. For this reason, I don't think biometrics is a viable solution. A long passphrase is much better, in my opinion.
The hell? They will ALLOW them? Where does it say that Microsoft has a say in what is set up as default in the OS? Do they seriously think they can make people only use their searches/office/whatever?
"if the government has been truthful in its disclosures, divulging information on AT&T's role in the scandal should not cause any harm to national security."
Is that like "if you have nothing to hide, you won't object to surveillance"? Seriously, poor government!
Uhh, I did RTFA. Having a man-trap feature doesn't mean allowing everyone. It should still check for valid cards. Otherwise, they should have just left the door open.
Don't they actually CHECK the card? What, the system just read the card, saw it wasn't empty and let them in? That's like typing some stuff in the console and the OS logging you on. How did that happen?
I don't watch sports because I don't like sports, not because there are none I like. If I was going to watch something, I'd watch football (soccer to you), not some people playing Eve.
If I wanted to do that, I'd go to a net cafe and stand over people's shoulders.
TrueCrypt is your friend. It's open source, it mounts as a drive and you can even have hidden volumes (so you can deny having stored porn when your gf tells you to show her). It's great.
This reminds me of an old joke. A redneck wanted to perform a vasectomy and went to the doctor, but the doctor told him to light up a cherry bomb, hold it and count to ten. The redneck didn't understand how this would help, but trusted the doctor, lit up the cherry bomb and started counting. When he got to five, he put the cherry bomb between his legs and resumed counting in the other hand.
So they wanted Google to pay them because they sucked? If it was like that, then every sucky blog writer could sue them for cash.
By the way, the "open for refiling" thing means that they can sue again if they thing Google MANUALLY changed the ranking, it's not really relevant to the case.

No wonder he doesn't want to admit to downloading it, that movie sucked! I bet he doesn't even have the DVD.
People replying to my sig annoy me. That's why I change it all the time.
:P
Well, one can always quote it
Exactly, since people have neurons, they're obviously more complicated than them.

For example, the 4200+ model would have to be priced below $213, but is indicated to sell for $225.
I'd buy one if it was $213, but $225 is just too damn expensive!

You'll find that most are unnecessary.
I tinker with my gadget frequently, but the results aren't post-worthy :P

Then, like I said: Leave the door open.

External HDDs also work well, but they won't fit inside a shirt pocket.
Sure they will. I have a Transcend StoreJet and it's really tiny and light. In fact, it's a bigger hassle to carry the cable than the drive.

So this article is basically saying "they just bombed a company, do you think our sources are OK?!"?
I wish I had mod points :P
Not when "the porn" is pictures of her you took when she was sleeping ;p

This is like that, without all the counting.
