I wonder if the board will run Elite. Well actually I'm not wondering, I'm sure it will.

If the judge were so inclined, he could mail me the physical extradition request and I'll do the squashing. I know where to rent time on a 6000tf hydraulic press.

Yes I have. Better yet, I am a doctor, and I always see my patients within 15 minutes of their appointment time. And over 95% within 10 minutes. Believe me, it's VERY hard to do. And I don't play golf either so don't use the "tee time" meme.

How is this for a fact.

A drug addicted patient is doctor-shopping for the next one who will agree to prescribe him painkillers without questions asked. The doctor realizes that, and correctly and ethically refuses to do that. Next the addict goes to yelp or some other site and posts "OMG this is the worst doctor ever he left me in horrible pain and refused to treat me"

Explain what the fact is, and how should it be dealt with. Preferably without wasting the doctor's time so he can keep all his appointments with minimal wait, and without legal fees so that the practice's fees can be kept low.

To me, Apple seems to have started on another "program" to get rid of third party involvement with their platform, just like they did when they removed 3rd party hardware developers. Except this time it's 3rd party software developers. The barriers they put in front of them are staggering, and they seem to be an euphemistic way of telling them "get out of here, we don't want you"

Perhaps it's all another grand plan conceived by Steve Jobs.

Forgot the clicky linky:

I disagree. Hydroxyl hydride is more appropriate. See formula: HO-H.

Sure. Let's all do this. Let's power up our cars by improvised H2 generators using discarded aluminum cans. Ignore practical considerations such as: does the average household generate enough alumionum waste to cover its energy requirements, prioce and safe handling of sodium hydroxide, disposal of aluminum sodium oxide etc.

Fast forward 1 year. Most people who had started using the aluminum powered cars have abandoned the system.
Why? Not enough waste aluminum generated by the household.
Why? The price of canned soda has skyrocketed.
Why? The deposit on cans has suddenly gone up from 5-10cents per can to %1.50 per can
Why? Canners can't get cheap aluminum anymore
Why? Aluminum doesn't get recycled anymore because it gets burned instead. So canners need to buy "new" aluminum, which costs a lot more. Why? It takes a lot of electricity to refine from ore.

Well, if they have 54468 cases on record, and they set the processing fee at $10/case...

I've done it dozens of times. My 13-year-old cheapo microwave oven didn't bat a lid. Still going strong.

I think the "easy to damage the microwave" is an urban legend. Someone should submit it to Mythbusters.

What do you think?

No, wait, I don't want to know what you think. Do the experiment. Take a tube, fill it with water (if you use distilled water add a bit of salt to it, because distilled water is an insulator) and run a current through it. Measure the magnetic field around the tube, and you'll have the answer. But please keep the answer to yourself, because everyone else already knows it.

I assume the article author means _permanent_ magnets (and reading TFA confirms they talk about ferromagnetism), because otherwise any old piece of wire you pass an electric current through becomes a "magnet"

You sunk my battleship.
