I would like to see a window environment that offers command mode like vim.
For example, all controls in currently focused window should have a line number faintly visible (one number per line for text boxes with multiple lines). You can highlight change focus to a particular control like changing to a line in vim: `:12`
Tightly packed stuff such as buttons on a tool bar might only one number, with decimal values for the things inside it (or a number each, whatever). You would only need to show the number every 8 buttons or something, people can count the sequence between.
ctrl+w, hjlk for window selection... etc
And while we're at it, repurpose that useless scroll-lock key to toggle to vim mode, so power users can quickly turn it on when they sit down at any computer.
Yes, computers can replace people for some jobs, they may do the task better in addition to being cheaper.
This is a great thing, as it frees these people to take on more complex tasks and advance the development of humanity.
However, these more complex tasks do demand brains - likely even more so.
Its a possibility, but you can shield radiation in other ways. Resilliance and high oxygen production would be more important. Ideally, breed plants for all of these things (and start ASAP).
In that case I could name my first born child the Mandelbrot set. Not "Mandelbrot" the string, not the equation, but actually use the resulting plot as a character.
Good luck pronouncing it, or writing it accurately.
Build Underground Cities.
More constant temperature, heaps of extra space. If you begin deep enough you might be able to commence construction with the existing city above.
Although a dome might be easier at first, when they're not prepared to rebuild everything below. Still, I think we'll get there eventually.
Instead of a steppingstone to Mars, NASA's current lunar plan is a detour. It will derail our Mars effort, siphoning off money and engineering talent for the next two decades. If we aspire to a long-term human presence on Mars--and I believe that should be our overarching goal for the foreseeable future--we must drastically change our focus.
Here's my plan, which I call the Unified Space Vision. It's a blueprint that will maintain U.S. leadership in human spaceflight, avoid a counterproductive space race with China to be second back to the moon, and lead to a permanent American-led presence on Mars by 2035 at the latest.
Counterproductive space race? Sounds like an oxymoron.
Races between nations produced many technologies.
And second back to the moon isn't a bad thing, particularly for it to be the stepping stone he speaks of.
When playing MP, what's to prevent the same server-side checks that are in all FPS games these days? And you can turn all the enemies bright red in proprietary games too- the models and texture maps are usually pretty easy to find, and don't form part of the binary (which is the bit people are talking about when they refer to open source).
"server-side checks" can't pickup changes made to the client. Maps and textures can be checksumed, but again, that's a client side check and nothing server side can stop the client from lying about being clean.
Stop making call of duties. They're all pretty much the same with a slightly better engine and some new maps.
And it seems that studios often put a lot of time into single players (like 15 or 20 maps + scripting + AI), and only like 6 multiplayer maps. You only play single player once. You play multiplayer again and again. Sure some parts of the maps/textures are used for both, but it still seems the effort is disproportionate.

If you just told them you don't remember shouldn't they have to offer proof you are lying?
Couldn't they now use this thread to show your lying?
Even if we posit an ideal Libertarian utopia, I don't know what to do about interstate grazing rights, do you?
I know what to do - abstain.

Oh, that explains how Skype was worth $8.5 billion.

Perhaps the ~800K is the temperature in the storage tower, so it was higher when it was melted.
But the current title is cool because it does it without adding overly superfluous words.

I was thinking a giant yo-yo.
It just comes downstream to the games, as it should.

What is 'two'? 10 states is enough for everybody.
People read less with movies, games, youtube, etc. available to fill their time.
The BLOWHOLE????
"It only cost $1500, and it doesn't get viruses because its a Mac. And I put windows on it so I can run everything."
I was just sitting there laughing harder at each point. I considered explaining to him the stupidity here, but decided it would be a waste of time.

Also IBM patented it for emails some time ago: http://yro.slashdot.org/story/09/07/24/2243209/IBM-Seeks-Patent-On-Digital-Witch-Hunts?art_pos=1
So you only get results on twitter if you search using:
tweet:query here
And normal searches don't include twitter results at all.
ISO8601, logical and standard.
Maybe if someone could use the SSL exploit to hijack the windows update service and use it to replace everyone's windows installs with linux.
"Objects" doesn't mean VMs, objects can be files, processes, etc.
But don't think of the children if *your* the pedophile.
