"Soldering requires heating the surfaces being joined as well as the solder"
Nope. Surface-mounting doesn't require this - there's a contact pad and you use reflux soldering or forced hot air to melt a solder paste. Things tend to slip right into place nicely and neatly thanks t surface tension.
Microsoft isn't the inherent problem, at least not THIS time - why attack the OS when you can attack the third-party software you know EVERYONE uses and you know for a fact is a bug-ridden piece of shit?
Talk about missing mine. One of the top hackers has pretty much gone public and said "I can only win these competitions thanks to Adobe being the most insecure piece of shit on the planet."
With that sort of PR, Adobe's future is not looking that bright.
Just FYI I used to run Nucleus back in the 90s, when I was but a child (901-360-0236 was the number) - you're a complete moron and you know nothing of what you speak.
And I still run multiple BBSes, and the majority are connected to using Telnet.
"The ocean's tides have more of an effect than the earthquake."
The nice professor that does the AstronomyCast Podcast, Dr. Pamela L. Gay, would very likely disagree with you. in fact, I know she would.
On estimate, an 8.8 quake releases the energy equivalent to 400 times the largest nuclear weapon ever detonated. That is more than enough energy release to move us off a fraction of a degree on our tilt in the vacuum of space.
If it's big enough to shift that much water, it's big enough to shift our tilt.
Also, according to NASA, the shifting of our axis is what caused the speedup in our rotation.
I'm willing to bet my observations are correct. On a global scale, inches could very well down be just microseconds.
"I have said this before here, and will say it again now. I believe Childs is in the wrong and has behaved badly"
Then you are blind and you need to stay up there with the rest of the morons who fucked up proper procedure - before you fire your ADMIN you get all passwords and you acquire total control of the system before you let them go.
I wouldn't trust you to be NEAR my network, let alone OWN one on the same fucking subnet, if you're that blind. You're likely to be more of a risk than he is.
I fixed the issue - it just took unplugging it and trying to turn it on to discharge all remaining power, plug it in and turn it back on, it works, now. Full power cycle.
Okay, if this is the case, explain the sudden three inch drop in shadow (I use the shadow on a tarp to determine seasonal change) which usually indicates a full month of time passing, and this happening within two days of the earthquake.
I learned how to read time and the season by the shadows while in prison. Pretty neat when you learn how to do it, but this totally throws the estimation off.
If it affected our tilt (which some of my own simple observations seem to conclude) there might be some changes in our global pattern. Axial tilt IS the reason for the season, after all.
I had wondered why the shadow on my balcony tarp, which I use to mark seasonal progress, suddenly took a one-month JUMP shadow-wise. (about three inches)
McQuown vs. Electronic Arts - the entire case is public record.
You act as if you know me (yet you can't even spell my nickname properly when it's right in front of your face.)
I doubt you've got half a brain to understand anything written in that court case, you can't even spell my name properly when it's right in front of you.
Until I cost them much more money, like I just did to EA with their Spore DRM. Smacking their million-dollar lawyers as if they were rank amateurs was refreshing.
And the only game I bought personally was MGS4 - which works, incidentally. My fiance bought every other game. They don't work. He's far more pissed than I am.
"It sounds like you need to get out of the basement,"
Seriously, you ignorant people need to quit using phrases like that. I'm independent, I travel the globe, and I work towards getting mankind out into space by working on new artificial plant lighting. Get your head out of your ass so you can actually see, eh?
"go take a walk,"
Hard to do with a crippled leg.
"interact with the regular 3D world for a change and come back to your PS3 in a few days when Sony have fixed it."
Why should I wait for Sony to fix it? I've been bitten by their rootkits, their DRM, and this bullshit. If they want to start selling their shit as a service, they need to start offering a service level agreement.
The whole thing is in one way or another tied to the DRM scheme, I'm willing to bet mad money on it. As soon as the fix comes out I'm breaking it down (I've done quite a bit of work on the hypervisor hacking,) and I'm going to see what changes. Almost everything is linked into the DRM controls, so the answer lying within the DRM is a very likely answer.

This could be absolutely awesome for surface-mounted diodes, which are quite sensitive to heat, requiring reflux soldering techniques for now.

Moron alert!

Dipshit.
"What does telnet have to do with a dialup BBS?"
Holy shit you're on the wrong site if you don't know that one.

Really, googling "Play MKV on PS3" isn't that hard - it just removes the container format and puts it all back into native VOB.
"Matroska in general is great and a lot better than Ogg or others, but it doesn't work on any device besides PC"
My AIWA DVD player can read MKV containers as long as the codec used for encoding is FourCC compatible.
"This argument is what will kill HTML5 and ensure a new era of the reign of flash,"
Not as long as one of the top hackers in the world continues to prove that Adobe is one of the biggest security threats to the web.

A three inch shadow shift would not equal even ONE HUNDREDTH OF A DEGREE change in axial tilt. Better recheck your math, you're the one who's stoned.
Then companies should not be guaranteed free speech.

"Why this tsunami did not ended on Hawaii like the one in 1960?"
This one is easy - the 1960 earthquake was FAR more powerful than 2010. It was out of steam by the time it got close.
I had wondered why the shadow on my balcony tarp, which I use to mark seasonal progress, suddenly took a one-month JUMP shadow-wise. (about three inches)
Holy fuck imagine if we had a 9.9 somewhere.
That wouldn't fly in the state of California. there would be a class-action against SCEA so fast it'd make their lawyer's heads spin.
We (the global collective population of the globe) have more guns.

"Sony is rightly at fault, and is guaranteed to fix this in a matter of days. "
My PS3 is now officially a BRICK. It will NO LONGER POWER ON.
Sony now has one week to answer for this. If I don't get an answer, I'm going to crack heads.
If you haven't paid attention to the recent news - Sony is preparing to charge for the PSN.
So guess what I'm going to demand?
