    Hah, we had a phone once I forget the model at the moment it was a semi-smart phone and when we went to call the police the gps app it pulled up crashed the phone, we had to hunt down a practically dead phone with no service to give them a ring... had some fuckin terrorists forcibly trying to open the door for 15 minutes

    SORBITOL is an inactive in plenty of liquid gelcap type drugs. however in high amounts or taken too frequently can cause diarrhea. perhaps an inactive had an unlikely side effect of drying their shit up a bit?

    i think the indication was that the above ground water was 100f, indicating a much hotter source of the heat made likely of molten rock. were the water 200c i don't believe it would be considered a hot spring any more so much as a deathly vapor spring. choke and die on your pompous cock please and thank you.

    perhaps it's your comprehension of the english language that is clumsy. to ensure there is no confusion in my statement let us make this clear. your comprehension of the english language IS clumsy.

    3 times larger to my common sense still implies 3 times a where a is the reference to which 3 times is being made. perhaps if they said three times MORE massive your reasoning would make sense as they would be implying 3a + a

  16. inquiry on Quantum Teleportation Achieved Over 16 km In China · · Score: 1

    people are saying that 'some' change is measured faster than the speed of light just that that change can't be interpreted until other information is transmitted at the speed of light. as long as you are able to measure some change, what stops you from lining up a row of entangled particles and interpreting them as binary? 'some' change is a 1 while no change is a 0. then couldn't one transmit information faster than the speed of light? i wouldn't pretend to understand the mathematics involved in such a thing but from the general knowledge i have gathered on the subject and from the responses of people who claim to be knowledgeable this seems like a reasonable application of this ability.

  19. subject on EU Antitrust Troubles Continue For Microsoft · · Score: 1

    if microsoft had to unbundle ie how many people would really know where to get their favorite non-ie browser from? most home users don't even know about the ftp protocol and even if they did can you access a search engine by connecting to ftp://google.com? what if you don't know the exact ftp repository? would you prefer these people telnet to the http daemon and send raw commands? and even if microsoft were to bundle 20 other browsers with their operating system what's to stop them at browsers, now we've got anti-trust law-suits against file system types... or we've got 100's of other browser makers suing to get their browser included in windows. microsoft is fighting a loosing battle as king of the hill. if a browser maker wants to bundle their software they can do so with linux, it's not an unfair advantage to bundle software with *gasp* an operating system that requires software to be functional.

  25. distributed streaming? on U.S. Court Denies Webcasters' Stay Petition · · Score: 0

    would it be possible to have some sort of tracker that allows the internet radio stations to come up with their playlist and rather than streaming the songs themselves they link to a variety of people who are sharing the songs on their playlist? would maybe require new software or an update to current applications used to listen to streams.
