Parents have been naming their kids after occupations throughout the '90s. Where I live, kids are named Hunter or Taylor or Baker. I even know a couple who named their kids Cooke and Plumber.
Cue the "my name's Carpenter, you insensitive clod!" comments.
Remember, way back in the Win3.x days, that whole thing about DoubleSpace and Stacker? These things have happened before, and they will probably happen again.
Black History Month was last month, and if dogs were extinct, the cat population would rise. Why are you trying to annihilate domestic animals? Do you jerks in these "trolling groups" and "anti-slash" live to create trouble? Are you so afraid of hate mail that you have to post anonymously? Were you molested by your parents at a young age or something?
I just saw an episide that explains beautifully why Klingons looked different
It also hints at Section 31. These sorts of links with the Trek future that we HAVE seen (not all the guy from the 32nd century stuff, I'm glad Archer told him to leave Enterprise alone) make the show good.
Perhaps Enterprise should move to PBS. There, executives aren't as obsessed with making more millions and can concentrate more on quality television. Also, the only commercials you would have to sit through are during Pledge Week.
This is kind of unrelated, but I think nobody here has said it yet.
The seven base units can be divided into smaller and smaller parts - a tenth of a meter, half a Kelvin, a zillionth of a second, etc. You can't do this with a byte, it just wouldn't work. Sure, you can have kilobytes and megabytes, but a millibyte?
As for the inconsistency with base-10 and base-2 units, I once read somewhere that they defined a new set of prefixes for the binary units, so a kilobyte would equal 1000 bytes while a "kibi"byte would be 1024.

6) Send in one of the last Best Buy rebates*
7) Profit!!!
*Assuming you bought your DS at Best Buy
Exxon and Mobil merged. HP and Compaq merged. This really would not surprise me.
If it were not April Fool's Day, I would now be expecting Intel to merge with AMD.If mass-marketed malware has peaked, then it will only come down.

Tax dollars. The average American computer user, at least.
In the land of Linux where the shadows lie? I don't think so.
That show hasn't been the same since Compo died.
You'd think she would be involved in her school's F.I.R.S.T. robotics team but her bio has no mention of it.
By-the-way: Eh?
Call it offtopic, but it-I-had-to-say.

would like to commemorate Black History Month

I have both Windows and Linux, but I have them on the same computer. Use a tool like GRUB or LILO for a dual boot.
Make it a TV series. It could be 10 times better than BSG and 100 times better than Enterprise.
How about Yanni?
At least everyone is trying to reach the moon instead of finding better ways to make mushroom clouds (except Iran and N Korea).
I have a moon base. I'll pull down my pants and show you.

How many Avogadroes are in guaca-mole?
I guess 6.02x10^23...
Or you could do 1867. dm^3 C-12 at STP (101.3 kilopascals, 273 Kelvins).
No, put tv jacks in the bathrooms. You don't want to miss any big plays in case the nachos you ate a few hours before catch up with you.
