[QUOTE=RLVG;257303]$10000? That's 55756,00 NOK.
That's just barely over the requirement for the drivers licence. *SERIOUS*
I'll probably buy a powerfull laptop that doesn't require any sort of hardware upgrades, buy a few programs and tools - start developing my own game with legal rights.
Otherwise, powerfull laptop -> keep the rest of money, use laptop for everything.[/QUOTE]
Hmmm... I want to buy a good laptop too. Mine currently sucks (ASUS). I've used MacBook Pro before, and I want to go back to using Windows PC.
What are some suggestions? Is Samsung any good? I am not that tech savvy, and I have no patience to build my own laptop. I just want a ready made one that has a lot of disk space for all my music and videos and hopefully fast enough to play some games.

What are some things you would buy if you had some extra money. Let's not be ridiculous and buy a ship made of gold (that will not sink because, you hired a scientist that will invent a material that could uplift... I give up), but I mean let's say an extra $10000 in your pocket. What would you buy?
You must use up this money, you cannot save this in your piggy bank.

Hi,
I am sick of HoN lately. Can you please suggest an online game that has some interaction with other people (i.e. multiplayer), that requires little internet speed/data? Say less than 20 MB per hour.
This game preferably has long-lasting playability and fun.
Not SC2, not HoN, not LoL.
Thanks guys.

I want to play with your racecars
I am not a Barbie doll
Throw me your baseball
I want to get on your team
And get my hands a little dirty
I heard from a little birdie that
You don't think I can take it
Or that I am made for it
Or that I got it in my bones
So what makes you think that
It is boys only
No girls allowed
But there is no way, you can keep us out, you can bring us down
If I feel it burning in my core, then
I will take that bright little spark
And I will hold it, tighter in my heart, than all your little darts
If you say I will never reach the moon,
I'll send you a postcard soon
What if he is into fashion,
Or if he likes ballet, does not get the time of day
Because he is built for the field, but he feels like his love is somewhere else, and
No matter what he felt they
Told him he could not take it, because he is not
Made for it, he does not have it in his bones
So what make you think that
It is girls only, no boys allowed
But there is no way, you can keep us out, you can bring us down,
If feel it burning in my core,
I will take that bright little spark
And I will hold it, tighter in my heart, than all your little darts
If you say I will never reach the moon,
I will send you a postcard soon
It says, "Remember what you said back then, and if I listened to you
I wouldn't be where I stand,"
And I have proven these shoes that I have taken on the world and back again.

Factory produced or not, not important. What we want is to use less energy. Be more efficient. Emit less greenhouse gases without sacrificing our ways of lives. Even use novel processes that consume greenhouse gases.

Methane is in equilibrium with carbon dioxide. And whether CO2 has a net dipole moment or not isn't important. The important thing is that it has vibrational dipole moment that can absorb the frequency in the range of infrared.

[QUOTE=Lysergic;233278]Atmospheric methane degrades into CO2 over time.
So... during the period where average global temperature measurements were being taken?
So you're comparing the period during which we have data about the atmosphere to the period during which we don't, and saying that temperature has dropped comparatively?
There is literally no way to definitively state that.

No methane is a greenhouse gas. I just made a mistake in saying it has a net dipole moment. What I really wanted to say was it has a net change in dipole moment when it vibrates. I am just so tired. Please stop stop stop.

Ok semantics... it has a net dipole moment when it is not symmetrical. Bonds vibrate like springs. 4 bonds in methane, and one of them stretches more than the rest, it will have a dipole moment as I believe H is more electropositive than C.

Yes yes yes, I am not doubting that. I am not even arguing against global warming...
People need to start realising global warming and global cooling are natural phenomenon anyways, as are "greenhouse gases" - another term for any molecule that absorbs heat, which is, any gas molecule with a net dipole moment. What you guys want to argue is that global warming in the past 20 years or so are caused by human activity, and not from the natural cycle of Earth (anything other than human sources).
My guess is that 99% of people don't even know what their argument is about.
