But you'd need a little red wagon and a long extension cord to enjoy them. Can you imagine a huge magnetic core memory full of mp3's (actually "full of mp3" since one would more than fill it)?
Some of the fission products are lighter than iron, and some may not have much mode of decay except some very long half-life decay (so very low thermal output), and no fission cross-section to speak of.
Coincidentally (or not), it's also the first time in history when a huge steel skyscraper was rapidly impacted by a jetliner carrying lots of fuel.
Do you suppose that steel's tensile strength is constant as a function of temperature, right up to its melting point, when it suddenly drops to essentially zero?
and even if it is only using Word for 24 hours, that should still translate into using Word and Firefox while listening to music and ripping a few CDs for something like 12 hours which is still a big improvement over the 4 or 5 hours possible now.

LHC Success!
·
· Score: 4, Informative
Someone please mod up insightful or informative. My remaining mod points expired today. The LHC was "turned on" but this does not mean it is operating anywhere near the energies that will distiguish it from past particle accelerators. Yet.
Since people drag the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics into evolution arguments, it *could* be (I didn't say "should") argued that it is relevant to physics. Halliday and Resnick is very good btw. I remember working through the workbook in high school.
110 score vs. 109?! C'mon, surely that's blowing the doors off the competitor (Samsung in this case)! And the good old-fashioned Western Digital hard drive that's only eight times bigger is waaaaaay back at 106!
Or maybe I meant that the entire fab is only 300mm long. You could fit it on your desk. Problem is, the wafers would be 300 microns diameter, and the CDs would be less than 1 Angstrom. A bit difficult to make.
Well, when I look at the contents of most DVDs, they seem to use most of the 4.7GB, though that includes some special features besides the main movie, which I would have guessed (maybe incorrectly) took up only a small part of the total.

Google Chrome, Day 2

"That's an impressive bump for day one (actually, half a day) and if you (unrealistically) extrapolated that rate, Chrome would have 100% of the browser market by year end!"
How did you extrapolate from one data point? I know the previous day's share for Chrome was zero, but since it wasn't yet released, it really isn't a data point at all.
IBM does (in New York), TSMC is in Taiwan. There are other foundries (fabs building chips for customers) in the US and around the world. So far there are no semiconductor fabs making CPUs etc. in China. Intel is building a 300mm fab in Dalian, China.
AFAIK, underrated and overrated mods aren't subject to metamoderation - that's why they're used with impunity, unfortunately. I've never seen either one come up in metamoderation.
If my password is aardvark9 and I'm asked for two characters and the callcenter person sees "k9", how am I going to know to give that answer rather than any of the other 33 possible combinations?
Oh, but radiative heat transfer (which doesn't need a medium) is proportional to temperature to the fourth power. Get that sucker over 1000K and you're all set!

It was right magnanimous of 'em to sue.

The awesome power never to make a typo again?
Actually, it was DC-8s, not DC-10s.
Well, "DC-8s without the fans but otherwise identical" as LRH said.

on a 2 GB flash drive? DVDs are 4.7GB, so is this thing compressed a lot or low resolution or what?

Well, he has a lower UID, so by the conventional wisdom, he's better....
It's 303 K or 303 kelvins, though, not degrees Kelvin.
OK, almost 30C as of 41.67 centi-days.
"Will be"?
How about "already are"?
Nope, not a jerk, just didn't know the procedure. Thanks.
How's that again?

25 year old AA batteries? I don't think so.
It's closer to (11 cm)^3.
