I haven't read TFA, but how can this work? If they produce the clicks into the user's ear (telephone speaker) then how will they pick up the reverberations in the telephone reciever? Surely unless they're loud enough to cause discomfort, the echos wouldn't travel far enough to be picked up at the phone mic?
"You can't win, you can't break even, you can't leave the game,
'cause entropy will take it all 'though it seems a shame.
The second law, as we now know, is quite clear to state,
that entropy must increase and not dissipate.
Creationists always try to use the second law,
to disprove evolution, but their theory has a flaw.
The second law is quite precise about where it applies,
only in a closed system must the entropy count rise.
The earth's not a closed system' it's powered by the sun,
so fuck the damn creationists, Doomsday get my gun!"
Oh, I realize[sic] it's accepted as correct... Merriam-webster are also among those who accept Aluminum[sic] as correct.
But you're right, I am lonely. Mom's basement doesn't see many visitors this time of year.
Am I the only one who sees an awesome motion picture in this? Possibly starring Liam Neeson as the English ship captain and Jude Law as his brilliant munitions engineer? Antonio Banderas can be the Spanish Admiral, and Kate winslet can be the love interest.
I get 5% of the gate for casting.
So, we somehow melt (some of) the ice, it evaporates to form oceans and clouds, which kick-starts a water-rich atmospheric cycle.
Can someone more knowledgeable than I in these matters please explain whether there's any possibility of this working, or have I just seen too many sci-fi movies?
that Car Dealer thing is a terrible analogy. With the ISP model, everything you do with the 'bandwidth' you paid for goes through *their* systems first - they're understandably concerned that the drugs you're running across their borders are going to reflect badly on them in the long run.
That perception (whether correct or not) is part of why he chose Joe Biden; a man he can rely on to speak his mind, with more practical experience than just about anyone. Interesting that McCain brings up the 'experience' argument again and again and then chooses the _least_ experienced person imaginable as running mate. Having her 'one heartbeat' away from being commander in chief should send a shiver down anyone's spine.
What utter bullet-head rubbish. With that mentality, all I can say is "God save us all" when you quit beating up little kids and stop turning a blind eye to countries even moderately well-equipped, such as Iran or North Korea...
I'd like to take this opportunity to start a holy war between Dojo and Scriptaculous/Prototype. Aw hell, why not throw in Ext too.
Wait, I'll get some popcorn..
OK - Go!
The way I understand it, in the case of genuine wine aging, oxidation occurs as gases pass through the cork, very slowly.
Now, as this machine accelerates the process, I'd anticipate the need for these gases to travel (much) more quickly through the cork.
My question is, are normal corks porous enough to support this flow-rate? Could it be a reason this artificial process doesn't result in wines that taste exactly like those aged naturally?
Hmm, are we all going to have exactly these same discussions every time there's an article on the Psystar case? It's starting to get like Groundhog Day around here.
OK, but what about the corollary?
It can't be a surprise to Apple that after having made their OS compatible with generic hardware, that 3rd parties would try to on-sell it.
*Apple* must have expected this from the start, got a legal opinion, had kick ass lawyers write a binding EULA, etc. etc.
They must have had their defence strategy planned before Psystar even existed.

It's fine as long as Erroneus isn't traveling at relativistic speeds. I'm pretty sure he isn't.
..In that sense, you mean *Cue* Microsoft trolls
Congratulations on avoiding answering the question even slightly.
What proof is there that they were wrong last time?

actually 364.24222 days a year .. and you call yourself a nerd?
let's see.. * slower CPU * less RAM (half) * smaller HD (one third) .. compared with lowest spec iMac.

I know I'm not the only nerd infuriated by Styluses. Styli anyone?

from the summary: "And not a moment too late". Am I missing some hidden meaning, or did they mean not a moment too _soon_?
Don't mistake innovation for marketing and suppression of competitors.

Damned Aussies and their cybernetic ant-ics.
err, this is exactly what the Customs department does to mail coming into the country.
