Stupid idiots...being different than you. Bastards.

Very succinct...explains a lot. Thanks.

Yes...they were way ahead on GIFs...let's go with that. I still am a little unclear on why GIF's are making such a comeback that they are even the word of the year.

The only thing that threw me was when they said "ocean floor" to explore. Which to me means they included the entire explorable ocean floor in their calculations, but there probably isn't much to actually see.

Obama needs to increase the education budget, stat!

Guy who got blasted for calling the election for Obama when everyone else said it was far too close to call.

Does anyone know how to get rid of the touch keyboard icon (toolbar) on the taskbar? I go in to taskbar properties and uncheck it, but it pops back up everytime I reboot. There is very little about it in google searches, but there were a few people complaining about it. No real fixes, though.

Just don't look behind you. Because that's all cats....

Why? I haven't used it, so I would like to hear what first hand experiences do you have that caused you to dislike it? I don't think I will like metro, but I hear there are ways around that. Other than that, doesn't it improve overall performance?

Does anyone know if the upgrade/full install trick will work with 8? Buy upgrade version, install as a regular clean install, don't register, then tell it to upgrade using the same disc and then registering.

And how, pray tell, do you get arty wallpapers for your iPad, Leslie? If there is an easier way, I would certainly like to know. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm off to France so I can have the Mona Lisa as my iPad wallpaper.

I don't think they look as shitty as you think they do. Here's what they look like when the residue has been blown off.

I don't think I understand. How do you define free-fall? I've tried looking it up, but nothing seems to specify a lack of vacuum as a necessity to the definition. In fact, wikipedia mentions a vacuum specifically: "Near the surface of the Earth, an object in free fall in a vacuum will accelerate at approximately…

They needed a tense confrontation to film and talk about, and they started to get annoyed when the US military didn't have attack helicopters hovering over them within minutes.

I did not know this...thanks for the info. I've been thinking that it was due completely to the engine failure.

Half of the medical center I work in has transferred over to handle-less faucets, and at least once a week I walk into a restroom with a handle and someone has left it running because they've gotten so use to them turning themselves off.

Does anyone know cost differences between what COTS cost NASA per mission and how much the contract with SpaceX is per mission?
