... end up in long distance relationships.
With modern broadband and VNC it doesn't matter where in the world you are it's almost the same as being right with her back in mom's basement.
... perhaps having to delay US release a day or two, or drop some foriegn lang versions (and leave them with English versions only).
Oh the horror. How would I know what to do without translations like: "please click bypass on tabletop to send agenda into space." I hate it when I get a translated version, because it's invariably done by someone with no knowledge of computers or the language or indeed both.
(wich is more than the speed of light in the fibers and the speed of electrons in a copper wire).
It's a lot more than the speed of electrons in copper wire. Depending on the conditions the average speed of electrons is on the order of a couple of centimeters pr second. But in the end the speed of the electrons is not that interesting, the important factor is the speed of the propagation of the electrical field, which is obviously the speed of light in the material in question.
Where were you people when wall street ruined the economy, and the government opened an illegal prison in Cuba?
I was trying to rid my inbox of spam.
I do wear glasses, but don't have headaches or issues with 3D glasses. Maybe I'm lucky or perhaps my cavemen ancestors were blessed with 3D wiring in their brains.
Only a small percentage of us are not. Contrary to what Murch proposes, there is nothing evolutionary going on. There is no physiological link between the focus and the convergence of the eyes. So we are talking about a reflex we've learned, and as such it can be unlearned. Much in the same way as there is nothing in nature that teaches our fingers to type or play the piano, so the first couple of hours are going to be slow and painful. But after enough training almost all of us can learn to play Chopin or touch type.
I get the same amount of eye-strain from 3D and 2D movies, which I guess stems from having to hunt for where on the screen the focus is.
Astrology is a superstitious hobby of zero scientific merit...
I have to disagree with you. It is rather a discredited scientific theory. The pursuit of which by for example Tycho Brahe proved the heavens not to be immutable as well as supplying the scientific data allowing Johannes Kepler to derive the laws of planetary motion.
Much like cold fusion is an interesting topic for research. However believing in horoscopes is similar to believing in special magnets creating fusion in your engine giving you better milage.
And then you can re-read my comment. I didn't say that he created the system, I said he created a philosophy. There is a difference between praxis and theory. Nor did I advance any argument for or against his philosophy being generative of such a system. Finally, I did not say he created THE idea of a market economic system, but simply A philosophy.
I don't agree with you that what he described were the practices of people when left alone. That is rather a barter economy. Smiths certainly favours a monetary system, and such a system requires governmental meddling to be truly efficient(see Wealth of nations chapter 4), or conversely, I believe, any such system becoming efficient would lend it governmental powers.
Marx did certainly not dream up what he thought would be fair, but based his ideas, just as Smith, on practices already established in society. In this case french communes and thinkers of the french revolution.
Adam Smith created a philosophy of economics based on the division of labour and laize faire capitalism, but he did not invent the assembly line.
The venetian republic used an assembly line approach to building warships in the Arsenale Nuove build in the beginning of the 1300s. In its heyday in the 1600s it could produce a fully equipped warship in a day. If you ever go to Venice, the Arsenale is well worth a visit.
You can draw something very close to the second and still claim the defense. It was after all a common symbol in Scandinavia. Carlsberg, the Danish beer company, used it as their logo until the symbol became too tied with thoughts of a rather aggressive southern neighbour. The Finnish air force had it as their symbol, and recently, at their anniversary, you could buy swastika rings. A Swedish noble family has it as their coat of arms. Incidentally that is where the nazis got their inspiration.
The fact is that banning the use of swastikas is ignorant, prejudiced and hypocrisy. Isn't the COD series originally based on WW2, with the possibility of people impersonating nazis for their gaming enjoyment? So you can play nazis for fun, but you cannot use a 4000+ year old symbol because the nazis also used it?
But then what happens when the black hole evaporates through hawking radiation and the event horizon disappears?
That will only happen after the black hole has fully formed and matter has stopped falling into it.
What does that even mean? There is no such thing as a fully formed black hole. The evaporation can happen while matter is still falling into the black hole. The net evaporation just have to be more than zero.
Which, in our reference frame, is never. It only ever evaporates in local time.
Of course it will disappear in our frame of reference. Otherwise the black hole would violate all the conservation laws and the laws of thermodynamics, because we would see the evaporation products, and also still see the black hole. This cannot be allowed or else the basis for Einsteins theory of relativity is wrong(the basis is that the laws of physics are the same in all frames of reference) and the very basis for believing in black holes would be gone.
