I also work in the network field. Please allow me to correct a couple of your points.
Single mode vs. MultiMode fiber does not mean what you think it means (one wavelength vs. many) and as the name may suggest.
To simplify, MultiMode is for short distance runs, SingleMode is for long distance runs. A different wavelength (actually a "range" of wavelengths) are used for single mode to achieve longer distances.
What you were describing is actually called Multiplexing
This is how super high data rates are achieved by cramming many different wavelength transmissions into the "tubes".
There is no such thing as a degree of parabolic-ness. It is either parabolic or not.
Since a bullet is a ballistic projectile its trajectory is, by definition, *parabolic.
No. You would not be charged because you were not in the act of committing a felony by jaywalking, as they were with this home invasion.
I live in Florida and a friend's girlfriend was charged with murder because of an incident very similar to this. She lured some guy to a place with the promise of sex in order for her two armed friends to rob him.
The would-be victim pulled a a gun and shot one of the would-be robbers. The other and the girl who "masterminded" the crime both got 25 to life for their part in their friend's wrongful death while committing a felony.
This is not correct.
While there are 4 pairs of wires in a CAT-5/6 cable, only two are used for data.
One transmit pair, one receive pair. When using the standard wiring, they would be the Orange & Orange-White / Green & Green-White pairs respectively.
The Blue and Brown pairs are unused. You can verify this by capping your own cable and leaving those four wires out. You will still achieve Gigabit speeds.
Let me be the first to say it is absolutely worth it.
Having 3 x 22" 1680x1050 Dell monitors side by side playing Hawx or WoW or any other game is absolutely stunning.
The Catalyst interface is a bit quirky (profiles do not remember relative screen position so you have to specify each time you change profiles) but once you have it setup and get into a game, choose your insane 5040 x 1050 resolution, you will be blown away.
Bezel gap is not as much of a problem as you might think. Your brain kinda just adjusts and ignores the gap.
My hosting company (for about 4 years now) has had excellent reliability and tech support guys were always timely and helpful.
Considering the level of service I have received from them so far, they are not really even that expensive.
I host about 75 domains on a single virtual server for about $55 / month and the performance is more than I need.
I went with the virtual server because I wanted root access and cPanel which allows me to host as many domains as I want and I can configure/secure the server how I see fit.
Oh, and the few times I accidentally deleted a file or two and did not have recent backups (I know, I know... turn in my geek card) they were able to restore the files for me quickly which was nice.
No affiliation to them, just a satisfied customer.
Please elaborate.

I am not trolling, I am genuinely interested to know the problems you had and if you upgraded to the latest firmwares on each card (they put out updates often and the changelog lists many bugfixes).
The value of the person filling the role of president does not end with their job description. As you said, they are a "figurehead". Hell, you could even equate them to a country's mascot. But much like a team mascot dying, losing a president deals a great blow to the moral of the populace. Hence, it is not just a "whoops" and replace him.
The penalties are most definitely *not* the same. You DO lose your driver's license. You do NOT have a DUI on your criminal record, probation, fines, etc.
Always refuse.
But they are not programmed by "A" man... they are programmed by teams of men, all overlooking eachother's code. Teams of men who are not under the stress of battle and having to make real-time imperfect decisions. The decisions in the code can be made under ideal, non-stressful circumstances and peer-reviewed before they are ever put into use.
Absolutely. Many lawyers have successfully defended their clients due to testimony from witnesses with a history of lying or being otherwise discredited.
Problem with that is that gynecologists usually see the worst looking, diseased, and nasty vagina. Not the good looking, sweet smelling, celebrity vagina.
Have you seen the tabloid pics of those celebrity vaginas? I think "diseased and nasty" and "celebrity" are synonymous.
I agree with the first part of your comment, but I completely disagree with the money == doping argument. There are plenty of non-monetary reasons people will still dope for a competitive edge.
Just to beat someone else at something for bragging rights or to impress chicks is more than enough reason for many people to throw away their health.
Slashdot Mirror
You have to have someone else to rub it in. And that will affect them too.
Or the person doing the rubbing could use gloves...
See if they can fabricate some circuity to make a webserver that can take a slashdotting...

You must be new here...(the human race, I mean)
Must be hard typing comments on slashdot with a combined two fingers and toes.
A pubescent youth gets the keys to the internet and he spends his time late at night....working on an Angelfire webpage?
What kind of mutant alien monster are you??

Their controllers are terrible...

Not at all... simply that a "team" of men are less likely to "flip" and go off killing people because of stress
But they are not programmed by "A" man... they are programmed by teams of men, all overlooking eachother's code. Teams of men who are not under the stress of battle and having to make real-time imperfect decisions.

True, but RAM does lack that one little feature most "storage" needs... persistence.
Absolutely. Many lawyers have successfully defended their clients due to testimony from witnesses with a history of lying or being otherwise discredited.
Sorry, wrong. The *federal* government should do as little as possible. Regulate interstate commerce, defend our borders and coin money, specifically.
This is a perfect example of something a *local* government should do, if the local populace votes and approves of it.
Problem with that is that gynecologists usually see the worst looking, diseased, and nasty vagina. Not the good looking, sweet smelling, celebrity vagina.
Have you seen the tabloid pics of those celebrity vaginas? I think "diseased and nasty" and "celebrity" are synonymous.
Here, we have a story which is not only over 8 months old, but is also a dupe. That has to be some kind of a record.

I believe it is. The same way we would consider it an act of war if Russia invaded Turkey and just happened to destroy our military base(s) in Turkey.
