    Time Travel, is it possible...?

    It's possible to travel forwards in time at various different speeds (though not instantaneously - id est, no skipping to a point) with modern physics. Backwards isn't possible with modern physics, however.

    If your explorer.exe gets hijacked by "IE Critical Update Needed".

    Explorer.exe is tied into the iexplorer.exe process (good fucking thinking Microsoft), and moreover browser hijacks are about 1000 times rarer on Firefox. Everyone has a tab addiction, but most people, you know, close them eventually. :rolleyes: Anyway, Firefox 3 has the best memory...

    "Time for Aboriginal rights written into Australia's Constitution." - Kevin Rudd

    Can't say I'm impressed (or particularly unimpressed) with Rudd so far. I didn't vote for Rudd or Howard, though.

    "Time for Aboriginal rights written into Australia's Constitution." - Kevin Rudd

    You're basically implying Aborigines aren't humans, but animals. Pretty fucking inflammatory, whatever side you're on.

    does age matter?

    If she's over 16, her age doesn't fucking matter, okay? Okay!

    Would you ask your partner how many people they've been with?

    I really don't care who they fucked before me as long as they're positive they didn't pick up any little pets down below. I probably wouldn't ask, but I don't particularly care - I realise that they've probably fucked other men. I might ask if they've ever fucked a girl, 'cause that'd be hot.

    mathematics sucks

    a) I don't remember them; they're intuitive. b) It all makes sense.

    y=ax^3 + d

    Oh, really? Have fun failing HSC and university maths and physics. And lol, y=ax^3+d isn't a parabola anyway - it's a cubic.

    Choosing the right uni...

    Haha. To be serious, though, graphics programmers are the highest paid jobs in the gaming industry (besides the lead developers sometimes). Why? Because you need to know shitloads of discrete and linear mathematics. In general, though, programming is pretty maths-intense. Especially on the...

    Science Careers

    Chem is highly employable (agriculture, water treatment, cosmetics, food, etc). Phyics is less directly employable, but highly employable if you're willing to take a job in IT, Maths, or Finance rather than strictly physics stuff. IT and Computer Science are the most employable of the lot...

    2008 Presidential Election - Obama v McCain

    TBH, like I've said from the beginning, they're both fairly decent options as far as America's politicians go. Gotta say Obama still takes the lead, though. He's not a creationist, and he's more likely to aim for better healthcare and welfare.

    Australian Politics

    Re: Australian Politics Chatter Thread Oh wtf. Had some respect for Rudd, but that speech is pretty fucking bilious. I don't think Australians have even been better of than when Howard was in Government.
