Yeah, hmm, I thought that was shut down over trademark disputes or something, but the site looks pretty good. Any clue if they're going to have any more(considering the last was in '97)? At least we Still have Battle Bots.
OOOh, based on RMS's view of the MPL, Galeon was violating the GPL(and it was licensed under the GPL, right?).It was linking to Mozilla, and the GPL says that you can't link to other software that has other restrictions or conditions. I guess they should be real happy now.
Methyl Alcohol? Isn't that methanol, which I believe even the gasses of which are poisonous? If so, they should've just got methylated spirits(regular alcohol with just enough methanol mixed in to make it poisonous to drink, i.e. untaxed).
>Each bookmark is stored as a separate file. This means that I cannot have a bookmark with a colon in it, and I cannot manage them easily -- no sorting, no nice tree dialog like in Netscape. Opera is somewhat better in this area, but I still like Netscape's approach the most.
I dislike them being in seperate files(because of the colon and backslash limitations), but you can sort them just like in Netscape. You can use a folder view. Ctrl-f opens the find dialog. F3 opens the find files dialog. Why would you want a browser to overload a key that you can conveniently use to find files with its own?
Quoting from Scientific American:
"Ordinarily a gas consisting of diatomic (two-atom) molecules, hydrogen can be cooled to a liquid (below 20 kelvins, or -253 degrees Celcius) and a solid (below 14 kelvins). In all these states, hydrogen is normally an elsectrical insulator, but in the 1930's physicists predicted that subjecting hydrogen to extreme pressure would cause the molecules to dissociate - break apart into atoms- turning the substance into a conductive metal."
Actually, people say that we need Jupiter size planets to sustain life on smaller planets, for they sweep the area (mostly) clean of the asteroids that can sterilize planets.
Question: What if God had actually made the choices on which animals lived and died, instead of natural selection, but he made them in such a way that it looked like natural selection was occuring(or maybe, when he created the Earth, 4,000 years ago, he put fake fossils in the ground(which were exactly like what they would've been if they had existed there for the real amount of time))? I don't believe it would be called evolution(because that needs natural selection), but it could explain what we se in the fossil records. Therefore, there is another explanation which could explain it, and wouldn't clash with anything we have observed.
Maybe you could have them try to program some clones of classic games. Like one of the stories posted a little ways below pointed out, classic games are really fun, and they can't be to hard to use. I've seen a book that teaches prgramming( The Black Art of Java Game Programming) teach how to program a few classic games to people who had just started programming in the language.
Based on what I've heard, that doesn't really matter. I've heard that Outlook will automagically load the.vbs file, spreading the virus before the user ever sees it.
Modern BASICs aren't that bad, at least not Qbasic(yeah, I know, it's from Microsoft, but it's for DOS), XBasic(it even looks sort of like C), and PowerBasic(all the features of C). It has almost all the features of C, and a little more( string operators). The semi-natural-language operators are also nice( eg. PRINT, INPUT,INSTR (IN STRing)). Apple Basic( and the other early BASICs) are another story....
Whose spaceship would you want to go in? Not the Russian's, surely. They have an even worse record than us. ALL their rocket boosters for missions to the moon either blew up or just plain didn't work. Considering that no one else ever launched a man, much less could launch an interplanetary spacecraft, you wouldn't have many better choices

Actually, that was *exactly* what I was thinking of doing.

Actually, I'm not sure why he would want to either. I'm just saying that it's possible.
Err, don't virii need hosts? Better just send some bacteria and other monocelled creatures.
I wanna leave it open in case we find a rocky planet orbiting that star.

Hmm, sounds like JavaBeans.
Where it's supposed to be?
Ever heard of raster coordinates(though I personally like cartesian better, both are correct)?
otherwise landing a probe on it's surface, with a small rocket engine to give it a gentle push could do the trick.
a la "L5: First City In Space"?
What's postal email?
Based on what I've heard, that doesn't really matter. I've heard that Outlook will automagically load the .vbs file, spreading the virus before the user ever sees it.
*clapping* Some admins finally know what they're doing.
that would be even better, http://slashdot.dot
Shouldn't the mail-order bride be from Elbonia?
If you can make it boot into windows, you probably already have root access.
My skin really is see through (in my arms). I can see tons of veins,especially in my wrists.
There is a "past shows" link on the left bar.
