Take Fireflies in the Garden, the 2008 film in which 43-year-old Julia Roberts plays the mother of 34 year-old Ryan Reynolds

Extremely bad example. If about 90% of cars in the US are automatic, yet 68% of the "ABTW" occur in automatics, that would mean that "ABTW" is much more likely with a manual.

Maybe you should keep acting, it probably get easier with repetition

Yeah, I have anxiety about planes falling from the sky. But they don't if I just sing happy birthday at least 1 time every hour. And it works, I started 20 years ago and I haven't seen a single plane falling from the sky.

Well, next time you read "birth defects" while at breakfast, don't keep reading, because that kind of pleasant pictures are likely to appear.

Well, BSG had 3/5, it's something

Well, the site seems to be down due to capacity problems.

I have one of those, it's like 15 years old and works like a charm. Too bad it doesn't know what an MP3 is, but I still use it every day.

My answering machine at home has 2 tapes

Yeah, and the scientists just add the neurological (lion) explanation to what I was thinking: If I had a brain fart with a lot of people watching and with something important at stake, I would totally freeze. Thorough notes that include everything shouldn't be used to read them aloud and make your audience snooze, but…

I tried to set up something that worked like aero-snap in xubuntu and almost died of old age in the process. And I finaly managed to make a script to install dockbar and dockbarx in xfce, with a thing (don't remember the name) that allowed the installation of gnome applets in xfce. A bit of a pain in the ass. I love…

It seems that you accidentally a word in your sentence.

Add a couple cloves and that's what we used for colds in my house when I was a kid

Pantera:

At least yours doesn't suggest to mix beer with juice and stir vigorously

It will not stop, but advances will stop coming from making ever smaller, and that's not opinion, its Physics. Advances will come from better organization, and CPUs will probably have to get divided in separate units.

Yes, that's it. And drive read/write/rewrite are how you say. The USB port is supposed to allow reading at huge speeds, but the hard drives/optical/etc can't keep up, because they have problems that have nothing to do with that. Think a pendrive or a SSD: they're much faster (and those ARE) transistor based, that's…

Do you know what the ITRS is? look at the side list here. There are physical limits to transistor sizes, where quantum effects get bigger than the ones in which transistors work, and we may never be able to make transistors that are 4 times smaller than the ones we have today.

That was precisely what I was meaning to talk about before we got sidetracked with the cases and the air flow (Ok, It was my fault, I started it with the 1990 case): the chips keep getting bigger and bigger because, while the transistors get smaller, we always try to put as many of them in one chip as economically…
