Because the moon is smaller than the Earth.

They should have finished the crust. People who don't eat the crust go to jail.

Just clear the path. Nobody likes Phobos anyway.

Your weight is higher at the poles than on Everest because the earth is not a sphere, but an oblate spheroid. And the mountain would raise you away from the central mass of the earth even more.

Because the mass beneath your feet would be lower.

A mountain at 42,164bkm would have the peak in geosynchronous orbit. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G...

But if someone built a tower 384,000 km high, it would travel faster than the moon. And if you jumped off that tower, you'd also never reach the ground.

If you have a "login" without security, like SMTP, if you were to hook up 12 SMTP servers like this, the simple replay of logging into one and sending an email would work fine. EHLO, and all that, assuming no dropped packets, would send a perfect copy of the one email through all the others.

Good so far

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_protocol_suite The Internet Protocol Suite is called TCP/IP. UDP is a subset of The Internet Protocol Suite. Thus, UDP is a subset of TCP/IP. There is no UDP/IP. That's a typo of TCP/IP or UDP.

You are just making it clear you don't know what TCP/IP means, or belligerent, for that matter. You are being deliberately contentious. You are ignoring cites that support my position, and can present none that support yours.

Traditionally, they also aren't running a full OS. Chromebook is a netbook. Windows 8 running on a small laptop isn't a netbook.

Nope. My phone has more cores, more RAM, and more software options than the last "netbook" I saw (a recent HP chromebook). Setting a phone on my desk, connecting HDMI to it, and a bluetooth mouse and keyboard, and it'll out-perform the netbook. The reason they don't compare is that the netbook comes with the larger screen, and can't make calls.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I... repeatedly calls it TCP/IP, and it explicitly includes UDP. The confusion isn't there. The Internet Protocol Suite *is* TCP/IP They are the same.

Why are you being belligerent? "TCP/IP suite" wasn't made up by me. I gave a cite. There are millions more where that came from. It's not an obscure thing I made up. Go read any of the large number of good books on TCP, and they'll include UDP as a subset of TCP/IP. Something like TCP/IP Explained by Miller is a good book to start with.

UDP is a subset of TCP/IP.

That you don't know what TCP/IP is is a separate issue. Try learning something, rather than accusing everyone else of being wrong, when you don't know what you are talking about. You once heard TCP and UDP are different. I understand. But you don't know what TCP/IP is. Learn that before you make a fool of yourself. Oops, too late.

We already practice that in the US, and it's nothing like what was described before.

Nope. When you take classes from the same institution that teaches highway patrolmen how to determine fault, you pick some things up. But you don't keep every piece of information catelogued with the source, so you can quote it back to some jackass on the Internet. Why, is your unsubstantiated opinion more important than everyone else's?

TCP/IP is a suite of protocols that includes UDP. http://www.protocols.com/pbook...

UDP isn't TCP, but UDP is one of the many protocols in the TCP/IP suite.

I expect the proprietary software wouldn't run on a netbook. Go for an actual computer, rather than a huge phone that can't make calls. Cheap notebooks cost about the same as a netbook anyway.
