E=mc^3 is improbable not impossible. The unit cancellation doesn't work out; E can't be a quantity in joule-meters per second. Your point's taken though.
Even on the off-chance that this really is a conspiracy to discredit Wikileaks via Assange, I don't really have a problem with it anyway
I do. False rape accusations serve to de-legitimize all rape accusations in public opinion. Leaving your childish 'serves-him-right' morality aside for the moment, if the charges are bogus, at the very least you should be outraged at how this further disenfranchises real victims.
Sweden's criminal code is on the public record. If it characterizes as a "crime" something which the UK is unwilling to recognize as a crime, that should have been a reason for the UK to decline an extradition treaty.
It's not "abuse" of the warrant system to issue a warrant for something your laws have always said you would issue a warrant for.
The texture of that unrefined pulpy cardboard that McDonald's drink trays are made of. Feeling that stuff against my fingertips just makes my skin crawl. Styrofoam and chalkboards don't bug me at all.
Speaking as a recreational vaporizer user, a couple grams in a week is pretty easy if you have a lot of free time and don't have any chores or thinking to get done. I would start getting very nonfunctional around 4-5g/week, I estimate.
If there were a mathematical model which could predict market fluctuations, people would incorporate that model's decisions into their investment choices, driving up the price of things now which the model predicts would rise later.
Any such model, if it were accurate, would be very useful to investors - and its usefulness to investors would preclude its accuracy.
The video's worth doing a little research on. It is the first-ever footage of a "man in space" - an arguable characterization, since he only went up to the stratosphere in a modified weather balloon and it isn't quite a vacuum up there - followed by a skydive from that great height. What's extra amazing is that the feat predated the 'Space Age' by over a decade.
Cpt. Joe Kittinger was definitely one of the great American badasses. I used to have dreams about that mission.
Yeah, that's the impression i got. With better processing this could look way better than it does in the video. It's probably not hard to infer the ball's angular velocity from the motion blur present in all the source images, which *ought* to enable some sort of deconvolution to make it all sharper.
Also, where camera areas overlap, you have "luminance comparisons" from one camera to the next. If the same surface looks darker from one camera than from another, that probably means that a light source has forced one of the cameras to auto-compensate by darkening the whole image. Account for that, the way they do in HDR photography.
If that was all done with some feature-recognition processing, the stitching could be made seamless.
If you're virtualizing Linux on Linux, KVM with libvirt seems to be the best-supported open source stack going forward. That's best for server apps, though; it doesn't have anything approaching the sort of desktop polish that both vbox and vmware offer.
vmware would appear to be the only really viable solution if both GUI integration and stability are important to you.

The person I replied to was not talking about Assange's accuser in particular but about victims in general.
Careful what you wish for.

Either you have no idea how intimidation works in the context of domestic abuse, or you're too callous to care.
Would you also have us believe that kidnapping is only a crime if the captor gets apprehended before Stockholm Syndrome sets in?
I wonder if the aversion is congenital. I would be interested to know if hating chalkboard squeaking runs in families.
Know what I hate?

You're just making Slashdot's server farm heavier with all these comments.

It's a bit of a Godel problem, ultimately.

The moment i saw the Daily Mail link, I knew the article was going to feature prominently the word "boffins".
I think the more likely near-future goal is to make pacemakers, wireless biosensors, and so on which don't require battery changes.

It's a start. First cease to do evil, then endeavour to do good. We can't walk and crawl at the same time.
Hope and Change turned out to be a whole bunch of sitting around and not getting much done.
Since the previous situation was getting a fuck of a lot done but none of it any good , we can say that "Hope and Change" worked out just fine.
zero is greater than negative numbers, after all.
In many people's parlance, causality is a how question, words like why are reserved for talk of things like intentionality and purpose.

...who ended up forgiven for his past by the GOP because he had the property tax policy they liked best.
Which is pretty much consistent with the current M.O.
Precisely right. Well played.

the damage the welfare state has done to the Black family
Yes, the Black family was absolutely undamaged before that!
Similarly, look at all the damage chemotherapy has done to cancer patients. They're so weak and hairless and stuff!
