"You say you'll change the constitution

We all want to change your head"

Who else is disappointed that we don't get to see hundreds of thousands of dipshits die of thirst and heat and particle weapons in the Nevada desert?

Some of those "particle weapons" shoot particles that are .223 or .30 inches across.

The two primary rules of e-cig juice...
- everything is water soluble
- everything is food save

Considering how little nicotine it take to make a person violently nauseous, in this context, nicotine is food safe (as long as some toddler doesn't drink the bottle of the juice).

Vitamin E oil AND THC are not water soluble. That is the whole fucking problem.

Yeah.... I am no expert, but how does one "tap" an optic fiber? Cut a fiber and install a splitter?

This is a lot harder than using an aligator clip.

It makes a difference tot he human.

Yeah, no kidding.

Isn't the problem, here, that Uber isn't actually doing much? Rent-seeking? Something that could be done with an open source, distributed, solution that matches drivers to people needing a ride? I don't know if it would work well if it was distributed to the point that no one has to pay for a server-farm.

Ultimately, Uber just isn't contributing much, but they are trying to make off with a large share of the money involved.

The stuff is floating... around... Do the pieces sink after a while as holes fill with water? It isn't clear to me how this is going to make a lot of difference to what is happening under the surface.

It isn't a hard problem. They are presumably trying different possibilities and keeping track of how much of videos are watched, whether they were watched to the end.

Then I had a cynical thought... ads are at the beginning.... maybe recommending relevant videos interferes with the ad delivery...

Maybe they want you to watch the next ad, start the next video, realize it isn't what you want, then when you find something else, you watch an ad...

Want to keep the ad-time ratio up.

Yeah - if your diet is low on calories, the body hoards the fat... most of the fat... Several years ago, there was a period when I was eating less and losing weight. I visibly lost muscle mass in my arms and legs. I did lose some fat - I used to have a fairly large lower lip, but about half the volume disappeared - fortunately it still pretty much looks like a normal lip. I did lose some belly-fat, but the body can be weird, at times.

Otherwise, somebody somewhere will inevitably make a conversion error, and it might have fatal consequences.

Lessee here.... 0.357 inches... little bigger than a third of an inch.... that's gotta be 'bout 9mm don'tcha think?

I am not an expert, but from what I read...

Linus said that if all the IO [on the file?] is DIO, the page cach will be empty, and therefore have little effect on performance.

I think Linus's biggest beef was the claim/idea, again!, that page caching is "legacy" stuff.

But... What is the deal with the fundamentalist Christians that believe Trump was selected by god? I haven't figured out how that started.

Do you want global warming? Because this is how you get global warming. You take energy from sunlight that would have missed the planet and aim it at the planet.

This line of reasoning can be applied to almost any source/use of energy.

Burn oil or coal and you get more heat. Make electricity and use it to do anything, like turn a propeller in air, and, eventually, most of the energy ends up as heat. There are also aspects like: solar panels (hopefully) reflect less light than the ground would if it wasn't covered by solar panels.

It can get complicated... hydro-electric... using the energy will make heat, but making it was by using a dam to create potential energy, whereae without a dam, the water runs downhill, gaining kinetic energy, which eventually turns into heat... Ida know.

Some uses of energy don't completely turn into heat eventually, such as hauling some mass uphill and leaving it there as potential energy.

But, basically, any energy we use will result in (minimally) heating the planet.
