Intuitively, which we all know is probably wrong, you'd think a smaller gravity would magnify it, no?
The bigger pieces can move more, the smaller pieces still settle.
The mechanism is that the smaller pieces fall down through the cracks between the bigger pieces, and eventually push the bigger pieces upwards.
Yes, it's space, so it's all new
Hm the X86 XBMC server I build and my personal AppleTV2 running XBMC all skip through RARed videos with no issues.
It took an international team to sort this out? Come on!
That's kind of what I was thinking.
I heard about this in Geology class 20+ years ago. It's why farmers fields keep producing rocks, because the bigger pieces move up and work their way to the surface.
I thought this was pretty well understood for quite some time.
It's not a typo. A tyopographical error iis a mistaek in typing, typically when tow letters are transposed. You didn't know the phrase "an old chestnut", you had only heard it said, and assumed it was "chess nut". See, it's this sort of lack of rigor that throws one's entire assumptions into question.
I never jump in and say something like this, but will you shut up already?! Your pedantic nonsense is doing nothing to further the discussion, and after a whole bunch of posts, you still haven't offered anything substantive. And besides, your premise here is wrong -- there is a known psychological effect that allows these sorts of errors for homophones and near homophones. When I'm typing fast, I occasionally write stupid things that sound like what I mean, but aren't... that doesn't mean I don't know the correct phrase; it just means I'm writing quickly. GP could have been ignorant, or it could have been a typo.
In either case, stop debating writing style and offer an argument, or shut up please.
And by the way, modern cars are so low emission that some of them actually clean up the air around them. The 2011 Ford F150 Raptor is one of them.
Note that this isn't talking about CO2 output, only pollutants like sulfur and carbon monoxide.
You would have think with Ballmer's exit SOMEBODY at Microsoft might have been willing to say "we shouldn't metro-ize the desktop. They really don't like it."
Apparently Ballmer wasn't the only one responsible for Microsoft's bad decisions.
So if I say to my foreign counterpart "give me this data that I have been subpoenaed to provide" I am obstructing justice? You could argue that the foreign branch is obstructing US justice when they implement the policy of automatic refusal unless/until a local subpoena complying with local legal requirements is received, but nobody there is personally bound by US law, so it's not particularly relevant unless they want to travel to the US in the future. Meanwhile they might very well be in violation of local law by supplying said data without the appropriate local legal authorization.
I'm not happy with this - it seems like an issue where there's no good solution: The US can't be allowed to be "world cops" to this degree - we've proven repeatedly that we've lost whatever moral superiority *might* have once entitled us to such a position - call me paranoid but handing more power to the gestapo-in-training seems to always go badly for the common man. Meanwhile *without* such authority I can easily imagine elaborate corporate data shell games where all sensitive data is inaccessible to any government. The only answer I can see is international treaties bringing corporations to heel, but I suspect those would be tricky in the extreme to get right, even if the self-same megacorps didn't already have pretty much all the relevant politicians in their pocket.
It's a naive, domestic operating system without any breeding, but I think you'll be amused by its presumption.
