This is not true, except in the case of quantum teleportation. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_entanglement

If you can show us that there would be interest in such a forum (perhaps by starting a few threads about languages to see if people are interested) then we may consider it. As it is, we rarely see any discussions about languages, so there's no need for that forum now.

They'd refuse to eat it. They already think our vaccines are a conspiracy to kill them all off, so giving them a real confirmation of our want to exterminate them (if that's what it will be construed as) will only make the situation worse.

No, it cannot be used to transmit information. Measuring the properties of one of the atoms does not transmit any usable information - you cannot tell the person with the other atom "if the spin is in this direction, I'm sending the letter A" because you cannot manipulate the atom and have that information transmitted to the atom at the other end. All you can do is measure its properties.

You can also try "This app can break" and it'll break Notepad. It seems to be any set of words with a specific length - 4, 3, 3 and 5 letters long.

This has been discussed before.

Blocking all websites besides those for work would be trivial without XP Pro - just find a program such as Websense or any other content control program. In fact, XP Pro doesn't even offer such a feature, as far as I know. To prevent users from installing games, a limited account in XP Home won't cut it. Some programs can install without administrative priveleges (though not all). XP Pro offers that feature, I believe, but there may be cheaper alternatives.

Nitpicker We need to fix some of the descriptions anyways.

Bascule was being sarcastic.

WINE is a system that allows you to run Windows programs under Linux.

WINE will work for most Windows programs. You can usually Google to see if someone's already gotten a certain program to work on WINE.

They're full of baloney.

No, they didn't want teens loitering because they were causing criminal damage.

Read Phi's post again.

I suppose pedestrians can just keep walking, then. I'm assuming (because it is logical, as a store owner can call the police during regular hours to prevent crime) that the device is used after hours (to prevent people gathering and vandalizing, etc), so pedestrian traffic would be minimal anyways.

The device becomes progressively more irritating. It's not as if you'll want to run to the other side of the street when you walk in front of the store. Non-youth loiterers are obviously in the minority where the devices are being used, or nobody would use them.

5. Attach a JATO rocket set to the back.

Nobody suggested a device to keep all other races out of a certain area.

I think I should take statistics on what percentage of the people against this device are under 25 themselves.

But if both parachutes deployed, they'd become tangled and you'd both die. You'd have to wait until the electronic one opened or failed before opening the manual one, I suppose.

Just to spite the owners of the repellent device, who they obviously will not like very much.

Are they assuming that adolescents aren't smart enough to get earplugs?

Reserve chutes are always built in to parachute packs.

I would just grab whichever was closest and jump.
