A god botherer interested in proof? That makes a change but then again you only throw out those statements since you will not read any proof

According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E... "Complex, image-forming eyes evolved independently some 50 to 100 times"

>There were created numerous times by a single individual.

I thought your imaginary friend was a trinity? so shouldn't it be three individuals (i could never work out who the holy spook was though)

Interesting. Could the NSA have implicated John Edwards? Perhaps Hillary will be the best candidate as there is nothing she has done that has not been dragged over in the media, so there can't be much to reveal.

We have to stop subsidising oil and apply the true cost of carbon. Then the market will take care of it. Global warming will do more to wreck the economy than anything we do to oil.

Building more efficient cities takes time. Our cities are designed for oil and that is one big problem.

Yes, there has been more CO2 in the atmosphere in the past, just as there has been more oxygen. The planet will be fine, but there will be another big die off, and we will be part of that. The CO2 was accumulated in the earth over hundreds of millions of years. Releasing it all at once will cause major problems. We do not need it to prevent ice ages. We know how to warm the atmosphere, e don't know how to easily cool it.

adaption is fine for a century but there is no indication that the temperature will then stabilise. The CO2 is a problem in the upper atmosphere. Turning off CO2 production will not eliminate that CO2. It will hang around for hundreds of years. Even running low on oil is not going to solve the problem as we shift to oil sands and methane deposits. We have to get off the drug of oil, which requires reengineering work, home, transport and many things that can't be done overnight easily. Unfortunately we might have to do them overnight the hard way, that will be painful.

I think i have responded to you on this before and you repeat the same lie. The increase of sea ice in Antarctica is bad as it is due to melting of ice sheets around the continent, similarly this increases moisture in the air which has increased snow in parts of Antarctica. This is also a result of warming. The decrease of Polar ice in the North Sea is also due to warming. It is not complicated science yet i see this point being brought up again and again, which shows that some people are being deliberately obtuse and trying to spin it as no warming is occurring. If you need some links on the science, just ask or google them, they are easy to find.

a scam

Read up on Strata Smith. Basically your theory is similar to the theories before he noted that fossils were increasing in complexity as they went up the layers, and he could identify the layers based on the fossils he found in them and he could successfully predict the next layers above and below. This made him money predicting where coal would be found, which was big money back in Victorian england. So basically your theory was disapproved over a hundred years ago, assuming you take into account the evidence. If you ignore the evidence, well then, basically any theory can be proved. That is how religion works.

Well you do need a naming system and Planet is a useful naming system. What is evil about that? There are only 8 planets so you don't really need to subdivide them more. And if the earth-moon is a binary then what are Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune? Pluto on the hand was relabelled by that evil committee not because it is also a binary, quaternary or whatever, simply because there are potentially thousands of dwarf planets, so calling them planets was not useful. That is usually the big complaint about that committee. I hadn't heard that people were unhappy about the Moon's status.

which "dumb-ass" scientists that do not influence the impact of the moon on the earth are you talking about?

The Moon is considered a moon as the barycentre is within the Earth. Pluto on the other hand has its barycentre outside of it, though in its case we usually refer to it as a Dwarf planet rather than Dward binary. ...or am i missing something?

Actually while Reddit has a lot of rubbish, it also has a lot of good content and good intelligent contributors. Also the ranking system that puts good answers to the top does usually work and while the linear approach of slashdot has some merit, in slashdot we end up with "frist post" rubbish up the top and you have to wade through content to get to the good stuff. So i miss Usenet too, but usenet was about the contributors, and they are on Reddit.

Tablets are great for simple browsing. Most of my use of my iPad is casual browsing the web and reading books. It goes in the toilet with me but i guess i should steralise it a bit more often. The reading experience is different to a laptop. You would think it would be the same but it is not. Form and function i guess.

Not really news? Guess that is why you are not a journalist. Once they discover the many other dwarf planets then it will stop being news but a finding like this is a big deal. The other dwarf planets are not confirmed. Until then, this is newsworthy as it is confirmation of that hypothesis.

We keep finding more comets and they are relatively common but most of them are news and there are multiple newsworthy comets a year reported (and many other little ones not reported).

and then the text is searchable, which the audio is not. If someone uses certain keywords then up the priority and keep the raw audio for them.

How much processing is required to do the speech->text? A fair bit i assume, and having heard many calls where i can't understand the other person then speech->text won't work.

perhaps with the lost Malaysian flight they know where it is but can't say so they don't reveal the capability. or.. they don't know.

What about 3D screen support for VLC? I haven't been able to get that working. I am using Windows 8.1 and NVIDIA with a shutter style glasses and 120MHz screen.
