[quote who="starkers" reply="6" id="2133124"] Quoting mickeko, reply 1 Quoting starkers, reply 24I've been thinking, if a piece of string comes up and inch short for my needs, would a rope suffice? And if so, would starch aid in performing Indian rope tricks? I piece of rope is not longer than a piece of string, it's just wider. I suppose that makes your second question void. Are you sure it's not longer? And if it's not, how about I tie two pieces togeth

[quote who="XSive_Death" reply="3" id="2132019"]Gravity is not a theory, its a fact. Just like evolution is not a theory, but a fact.[/quote] Gravity is fact, darwinian evolution is religion. Darwinism is just something that sounds reasonable enough to believe in, but there's no conclusive evidence on its accuracy, same as any other religion out there.

[quote who="The Jooma" comment="13"]I hope the last build solves D-link specific router issues.[/quote] Why? If it's D-link specific, it's D-link who need to solve it. Game companies should NOT bloat the games with workarounds (also known as "optimizations") for crappy hardware/drivers. If they hadn't done that for ATI and nvidia cards, we would likely have had stable, working graphics drivers for all cards by now...

[quote who="alfiejs" reply="19" id="2131534"]Yawn. You're other software contains DRM, yet you are more than happy to use, and dare I announce it 'pirated' material in a video. I suggest you take this down, despite the fact that it is now way past April Fools Day, and that you're not groundbreaking in any way for doing this rick rolling thing. Seriously, if you;re going to do a prank, do one that hasn;t been done before. You must have stayed up really late at night thinking of that one.[/

[quote who="HG_Eliminator" reply="5" id="2128969"]Consider a celestial body (planet) of mass M and volume V consisting of material of uniform density M/V. If the body is spherical, then its radius is R=(3V/4{pi})1/3, and the free-fall acceleration on its surface is g=GM/R2=GM(4{pi}/3V)2/3, where G is the gravitational constant. Consider all possible shapes of the body. What is the largest g, that can be achieved at one point on a surface, and what is the shape of the body for which such accel
