I'm pretty certain that no matter where you are, when something colder than 10C is pressed against your skin, or when your skin is cooled down to lower than 10C... you're going to be in worlds of pain. Especially if you go far below 10C.
The video in yesterday's post DID say that the whole thing was run by five cameras. Doesn't it still make a touchscreen if stuff happens when you touch it? Why woudl it be any less of a touch screen if it sees you touchign it instead of feeling it?
Great companies always work togethe behind the scenes. They have to. It's a Nash equilibrium in that the greatest results come from doing what's best for them and for the rivals. If two companies destroy each other then a third will come to pick up the market and steal it. But if the two greatest companies work together they can keep a great hold on the market for ever and ever.
All the rivalry is created by fanboys and is probably only a good publicity engine for both companies. Big boys don't act like fanboys.
I keep amarok running all the time on my 1.8GHz AMD with a gig of RAM and there are never any problems with it. The CPU usage is decently low, usually at around 2% and RAM is usually used up to about 150MB when I'm not doing anything. That may be a bit high but my amarok playlist is quite large and there are usually around 100 processess running even when I'm not doing anything.
Bottom line is, amarok beats everything in usability. As for syncing, I just use all my players as a mass storage device and do away with any weird problems.
You'd be surprised by how many programmers who have gone to actual rpogramming classes fail at anything as simple as indentation. Peopel jsut aren't taught this at school so either they are wise and learn it themselves or they read somewhere about how to code like a human being and not a thousand monkeys on typewriters.
The article may be redundant to many, but I can name at least twenty people off the top of my head taht should give this a long hard read and then read it again.
The real question here is what happens if you spill the coffee, which is usually exactly what happens on fancy coffee tables. Can you then wirelessly make the table interact with that coffee, or does it simply hurt the table?
Now if it recognised there's been a spill and call a robot slave to clean it up... that would be wonderful.
Just look at the average teenager, mummy bought them a snazzy new mp3 player and gives them perhaps some allowance each month which is usually spent on fags and alco. Asking for more money to go and buy music usually doesn't work but parents are already paying for broadband anyway. The next logical step? Get music for free.
There are just so many languages with so many cases where the sentence is completely misunderstandable without verb conjugation. I for one know at least one such language.
And no, English does not seem to be one of those languages.
That's a valuable point, 300 year old people would be kind of a weird thing to have walig about. Perhaps organ replacing should be limited to diseases and aging shoudl be let alone to do it's thing.
It's only logical though that sooner or later that would get abused...
I wholeheartedly agree. It is unacceptable that stem cell research is being outlawed pretty much everywhere. Laws shoudl be made about what is allowed to be done with stem cell research, for instance that you cant' clone whole humans, that seems nasty, but things like organs taht match the one that needs them perfectly should be allowed. I for one would like to have my heart replaced by what is practically my own heart once this one becomes too weak and/or sick.
With stem cell research there is no waiting for organs, no rejection, everything is just perfect. But nooooooo, that would be too wrong to have, hell I can't even think who would be at loss if this were true.
That is funny on a certain level, but I think nothing gives you an excuse to do that to a person
at least not without threatening them first *evil grin*

The Tux IS too small ...
Are there any photos or videos available of the crash? I'm all for linux, but seeing Tux splashed all over the road should be an interesting sight.
According to my knowledge of Middle English the correct conjugation for a verb in second person is to add 'est' to the basic version of the same verb.
Willing to admit that there might be an exception unknown to me with verbs ending in 'st' already, or that 'cast' was an irregular verb in ME.
The line should read "Thou shalt be castest down for prior art"

It's really that simple imho.
So... basically what Microsoft is trying to patent on the fly hash table look-up?
Now where have I seen that before? Hmmmm....

Heh, yes you're right, that oppinion isn't based on pretty much anything but my personal view that cloning just doesn't quite seem right.

Nice to see Microsoft trying to change in order to fit the market and stop trying to change the market in order for it to fit them.
It's funny how much better the law works when the punishment is more tangible.
