anybody? I got 5 days to get this file over and i want to know wheter to start on the DVD's now or whether i can just swap it through a network.

you can't de-evolve. evolution cannot be planned. merely influenced by selective pressures of the enviroment. A theory requires evidence. what you have there is a hypothesis. A theory is the highest merit an idea can have in the field of science. Definition of a theory: A hypothesis backed up by evidence, predictions with little/no experimental deviation and better than the the previous(if there was one) theory.

Debunking the Butterfly Effect
insane_alien replied to bascule's topic in Modern and Theoretical Physics
technically the "butterfly effect" is only an analogy for chaos theory. it doesn't mean that butterflys are the masters of the weather or anything like that. -
the terminus isn't a depot in this case. more of the stop where it turns round and backtraces the route.

big coil of pipe/tubing that won't react with the liquid but it in a bucket fill bucket with water(or other liquid that is still liquid at desired temperature) light fire underneath, wait till at operating temperature then pump your liquid through the piping(you could even let gravity do the pumping if its thin enough.

ahh. my mind is running somewhat slow today. probably cause its in a loop of asking itself "WTF?" due to certain events that happened today.

yeah dictionaries are generally not written by scientists(and a lot of of the proffessors in my uni have obviously never came across a dictionary before eg. watter)

75g/ cm3 Holy crap they made a gas 75 times as dense as water? the stuff is deadly before it reaches the concentration for combustion.

The Mars Dillema; De-Evolutionized thoughts of me ?
insane_alien replied to Md's topic in Speculations
Sigh. If you look hard enough you'll find all sorts of things that "can't possibly be coincidences" for example if i overlayed that pattern on my bowl of cornflakes this morning i'm 99% sure it would fit. this does not mean that there is a civilisation in my breakfast. -
but the depot isn't part of the section of the route that i'm talking about. probably should have mentioned that.

i was sober yesterday which is what makes it bad.(Cider is my poison not beer)

Bit more detail plz i'm new to networks

How can i swap files between my laptop and PC using my router? Or more importantly, can i do that? It's just i want to swap a 30GB file and don't want to use a bunch of DVD's and i don't have the funds for an external harddrive.

looked like a cucumber.

yes as it is a closed system.

Note: My F key isn't working very well so add an f where ever you think there should be one. When returning from university yesterday i noticed that the rate of No.36 buses going in the opposite direction was much greater than the number of buses heading in the direction i wanted. first:the bus timetable says there should be 4 buses per hour, although in reality, and not in an administrators office, it is more like 3. second: i get on the bus to the terminus which takes about 15 minutes so at most there should be 3 buses from the stop i get on at around the loop which then passes the same road only on the other side. third: no other routes go near this one until the stop i get on at fourth:the route is basically ollow the road until the terminus and then double back along the same road. I waited 3 hours for a bus yesterday. I would have started walking by 1 hour but i got enthralled by this. That means in thoery 12 buses should have passed. or reality 9 buses. Now the actual number of buses that went past in those 3 hours (going to the terminus) was 1(the one i got on); the number travelling in the opposite direction was 11!. To explain this I have came up with a theory that the speedometers on these particular buses are infact extremely accurate, so accurate that the heisenberg uncertainty principle takes effect on the macroscopic scale and the buses teleport past the stop at the trainstation where i usually get on. The buses that do stop there obviously have broken speedometers and therefore do not teleport(also explains the breakneck speeds of the drivers who once managed to flip a bus on its side, luckily i got a lift that day). Any thoughts on this hypothesis?

in the orbiter older go to the one listed "docs" the click on orbiter.pdf , thats the instruction manual.

Chernobyl - Dangerous, Exciting Holiday!?
insane_alien replied to Teddy_Csx's topic in Other Sciences
In theory any radiation exposure above natural background levels is too much over an extended period of time. but the body does have some tolerance. A day trip shouldn't be too bad at all. but the advice still holds. the amount o radiation you'll absorb depends on where you go and how long you spend there so it could be as low as 5 X-rays but it could go as high as 100 which would give you some effects of radiation poisoning probably but its doubtful for a day trip unless you go cloes to the plant. the biggest danger is inhalation o a radioactive particle which could cause a lot of damge since you don't have your skin to protect you. if that happened you'd probably get cancer in your lungs. if your careful it won't happen but it only takes one particle too cause cancer. -
Chernobyl - Dangerous, Exciting Holiday!?
insane_alien replied to Teddy_Csx's topic in Other Sciences
If your driving around there i would recommend keeping the air conditioning(an in car heater is ok just not the built in one that blows air in) off and windows closed. also spend as little time as possible outdoors as there is still a lot of radiation in the area. you might want to cover up as much of your body as is comfortable as this will stop particles sticking to your skin, have a fresh change of clothes for every day and dispose of them after(not by fire) especially i you have been in an abandoned building which could still have airborne particles. also a portable geiger counter would be a good thing to carry around with you so you know when to get out of some where. use it at your home to get a sense of how fast it should be ticking with background radiation(there is radiation EVERYWHERE only most places just not a lot) when your near chernobyl the count rate WILL be higher regardless but you should still be able to hear individual clicks. if it appears to go crazy and you can't hear individual clicks my advise would be to get out of there asap. -
yes it would appear that exposing felines to quantum mechanical experiments increases their intelligence a million fold according to the heisenberg uncertainty principle. P.S. Yeah i know that to anyone who knows anything about quantum theory will see that i wrote a lot of bull excrement but that was the point

k no problem. i won't put anything up(even with spoiler tags just incase you get curious) until you've inished the book.

Infinite divisibility theorem? or the equivalent in ancient greek.

the brain uses roughly 15W of electrical energy all of this it generates itself. outgoing signals are tiny in wattage. the field is negligble more than 15 cm from the head. IIRC.
