    #corrections : The Sun doesn't have a perihelion, as stated in the second paragraph. The comit has a perihelion, which is the point in an orbit closest to the Sun.

    Just to clarify, but the camera is only on the training system, not the real ones up in space.

    You're paritally correct. You have to remember that the shutters are all closed, so the sensors aren't directly exposed. Still, it's not something I'd want to do with my own camera, that's for sure.

    @BlackYoshi: Are you serious? Have you read the sources? It was clearly and admittedly consensual sex. In one case, the condom just happened to break, and after the fact, the woman accused Assange of deliberately causing it to break. That's a really weak argument for one, and absolutely nowhere NEAR being "date

    @Hiphopopotamus: That's making the assumption that the couple were aware that the condom broke and Assange chose to continue. It's equally likely that they only noticed a broken condom after finishing, in which case it be an ex post facto withdrawal of consent, which is, frankly, bullshit.

    VOTE: Gedit

    @freakboy9: That'd be nice, but in Apple's eyes, people don't get music from anywhere but their sacred iTunes Music Store, so why should they bother accommodating anything else?

    @yah5: The thing is, it's not all based on "one dumbass's...documentary" at all. It's based on decades of research by hundreds of scientists worldwide, which also happens to be what inspired said documentary.

    They've been using this sort of thing in the food industry for quite some time now. Useful, but not all that new.

    Is it possible to set your default mail handler to open in a non-default browser?

    @♥♦ Goopplesoft ♣♠: "A bit" out of hand would be punching the kid in the face. Luring him, firing a shotgun, stripping him, tying him up, tazing him, and reporting him as an intruder go a good deal further than "a bit" out of hand.

    @♥♦ Goopplesoft ♣♠: Wasn't wrong? WASN'T WRONG?! This sick freak lured the guy there under false pretenses, attacked him, bound him, assaulted him multiple times, fired a shotgun over him, falsely imprisoned him, and then knowingly and maliciously filed a false police report against him, claiming him as an intruder.

    I really hate when people say "for god sakes!" Think about it. That makes zero sense. It's "for God's sake!"

    @[Redacted]: Heh. Except I have the ol' 2nd Gen, so no shaking.

    @casen: That's the same one I have. I just leave it sitting in the cupholder, and just reach down to flip songs when I need to.

    Touch screens work well for some things, sure, like all the smartphones out there.

    $.99 for a tv episode *rental*? For that price, you should own the damned thing...

    Shit. I guess I better upgrade my old Nano 2G while they still have some of the 4G models left. This new design is just awful. What is it with odd-numbered Nano generations?

    @FrankenPC: The speed of the gases may produce a low pressure, but don't forget that it's also super-heating all the air around it, causing it to expand outwards. Without doing any calcs, though, I couldn't tell you the relative strength of the forces, but it wouldn't be all suction.
