And I cant think of a single album, ever, where I've ever wanted to listen to it all, end-to-end, or even give a rat's hairy butt about listening to them in context with each other.
The Streets' first album.
Each track tells a small part of the story of the relationship between the singer, and some girl. The whole album, tells the whole story, in order.
Fancy listening to that all the way through, though never actually have....
since your 30's are the time where you're supposed to have kids
Make that 16-25 and you may be close.
The human body seems most suted to birthing at that age, or have you not heard that it is a) harder, and b) more likley to result in birth defects at an exponential rate from 25 up?
The fact that most of Western society wants to have kids in their 30s now, doesn't make it the best time.
Force everyone to take 1 shop and 1 welding class then ask the engineer why his 1.00000000 mm tolerance is a bit strict
Funnliy enough, on the particular branch of the phisics degree I took, they tried hard to persuade us to do a "metal work" module (we made a candle stick, to micrometer tollerances) for this very reason.
For someone who actually uses a computer as a computer, this new display/input device is going nowhere. As far as using it at home, forget it. A coffee table that I can't pile stuff on... what a waste of floor space.
But how about people who want to use a computer in a different way?
I can see uses for this, from displaying maps when playing DnD to RTS games, multiplayer C&C anyone?
Well, I can listen to something, to the point of singling along (i.e. talking, with timing, and adjusting to make up for my mistakes), whilst reading.
Not easy, and not often, but I sometimes find myself doing it.
The moon's sidereal period is over 27 days, a strong magnetic field would not be expected. The major indicator that a molten core is not present is the lack of a dipolar field -- which a geodynamo (from the molten core) would cause.
There was me thinking that maxwell's equations would be much simpler if there was such a think as a magnetic monopole, but no. All we have is these damned dipoles. Please, do point out evidence of a magnet that isn't dipolar though.....
You want to try spending 15 minutes in a room that is illuminated only by many variations of the same (and I mean exactly the same make + model) green laser. Walking out of the room and looking at a "white" wall.
fun.
The fact that I was trying to write down the order of 20+ colour coded wires in said room was an added bonus.
Ok, so the inspiration section includes LoTR, DND players handbook, all of the star treck series, and the hunt for red october, but doesn't include either Neuromancer, or the Matrix.....
What with the web section, and the sociology section I would have thought at least Neuromancer would make it....
Or you have a computer used by more than one person, for more than one purpose.
I happen to like tinkering with Gentoo, and testing new things *before* I put them on the gentoo server I also possess.
My girlfriend prefers windows, apart from the fact that the wireless on this laptop is a little flakey.
I could use Gentoo in a VM, but I havn't gotten around to it yet, and on a 1GHz Duron, 6 year old laptop, a VM may not be too snappy when the guest OS is compiling from source....
As others have said, because *you* can't see a use for it, doesn't mean others can't.
Other Gentoo users [like me] use windows as well, and are careful to set the boot loader up correctly. In the same way we are careful to set everything up correctly.
Most of us also don't troll, it is just the ones that do that tend to be quite vocal.
Let me appologise for my fellow Gentoo user who seems to need to grow up.
on topic, I also am saddened that there is no mention of co-existing with other OS's. Though virtualisation tech should relieve this somewhat.
I didn't think I needed the smilie after the "or so I heard". I guess I was wrong.
I don't have, and don't really want to be bothered finding a source. But thinking through, how much energe is needed to extract the aluminium, to make the leather, and the plastics, to mold ever single part, to weld and piece together the highly engineered tech that is the modern car?
I suppose the logical answer would be "less than the cost of the car".
So the question becomes, do you spend more on fule for your car, than you do on buying your car(from new:).
As I said, nothing personal, I was picking up on society's bias that school, or the whole of life up to the age of 18 is not *real life*.
School kids commit suicide because they are bullied. It happens. A lot.
Missing out on school can ruin your life, having everyone in a schoool pick on you can ruin your life, or as I said, end it.
I was simply making an off-optic comment, picking up on one sentance, it seems I hit a nerve, and that you are as short-shighted as the gross generalisation I was picking apart. That was not intentional

No, he probably meant what he said

Seriously, is the article linked not just a joke?
If not, can someone please define PRAT for me?

I've seen it explained, plenty of times, they try to defend it with a "sarcasm" style argument.
[shakes head, wander's off]

Amusingly though, in one of her books, it describes exactly how and where she bought said degree.

Or drop the PIX and move replace the router with one that does all the PIX did? For around the same cost as the PIX.

Two points.
1) Why send an all male hetrosexual crew? there are 5 options that I can see, two of which would involve no sex.
2) You really believe those ships were crewd by hetrosexual men? Considering the times they were more likely what we would term bi-sexual.

Which leaves the question "do the physical and virtual instances have to be on the same hardware" hanging.
The specific difference between GSX and ESX in the answer would imply yes, everything up to that point would imply no.
ex-boeing tech who had worked on one of their stealth efforts...he really wasn't the sort of person to invent stuff
Is that why he was "ex"?
I know, that is nothing like what you menat, but it made me giggle.
This is one of the reaosns I want to move further north, to Scotland infact, to guarentee those colder winters :)
What can I say? I like snow!
Roll on ice cap melting and the shutdown of the gulf stream.....
Then again, I've always wondered why everyone seems to think things have to have a beginning at all?
Most of the rest of the universe is cyclic, with no definitive beginning or ending, why should the universe itself be any different?

"Gentoo and Windows hit two totally different groups of people and respective tasks."
So in other words, they are good for different things, so both are useful at different times, so having both available is bad?
Your logic is quite interesting.
Good'oh, now we are all friends again we can go for a cooling pint down the pub eh?
:)

Way to misread what I said.
