    Upgrade Advice

    I typed out a huge response which got lost when the fricken page couldn't be found. Great. No way I'm retyping all that. Thanks for the responses everybody.

    Upgrade Advice

    I originally posted this as a comment to Anand's latest review on Intel's dual core stuff, then realized it really should go here, at least I think this is the right forum. Anyhoo, here it is... Well, I'm not a tech whiz like everyone else here, but here's my 2 centavos... I can attest...

    What is the Highest Temperature Possible?

    I still don't have a solid answer to the question. Some people are saying there is no limit, some are talking about photon temperature, some are saying there is definitely a limit. Surely we can't exceed the temperature of the big bang can we?

    is jedi's lightsaber possible to make?

    "Diamond is carbon. In the presence of atmospheric oxygen, it burns at a temperature somewhere between 1500 and 1600 degrees" Crap. I already went out and bought a solid diamond rod to make a light saber...I hope Walmart will refund me, otherwise I'm out $630,000,000.

    Prescott: What would you have done?

    One thing I have always despised about both Intel and AMD is their failure to adapt leather into their fab process. I've been advocating this technique for years, and now that case mods and the like are all the rage, we're still stuck in the stone age trying to show off crappy materials on the...

    Exercise - Muscle Growth

    This is not a direct response to the question, however I do have a little trick that works for me. Whenever I want to get into shape, I work out for about two months lifting weights and doing some light cardio work (like bike rides and stuff). During that period, I avoid looking at my body. I...

    is jedi's lightsaber possible to make?

    well, speaking of diamonds, what if you had a solid diamond blade that was heated to like 10000 F. See, you hook it up to this AC adapter from Dell, that should get it hot enough. Of course, you're going to need some mean shielding to protect yourself from the heat, but I'm thinking this baby...

    What is the Highest Temperature Possible?

    Well 9^16 K is a pretty gigantic temperature unipidity. I wonder what that would do to a star system. Now a related question is, isn't the universe in a state of "cooling off" since the big bang? I mean, what was the temperature of the big bang? Or is that even a relevant question, as...

    What is the Highest Temperature Possible?

    The Sun doesn't have enough mass to attain temperatures above the 100 million K required for helium fusion, so there won't be a supernova. However, during helium fusion, it will become a red giant with a radius near that of the Earth's orbit, so the Earth/Moon system may be consumed in that...

    What is the Highest Temperature Possible?

    "Oddly, you're correct about the fate of the moon. When our wonderful sun eventually becomes a supernova, it's going to destroy the moon. " True, quite true. "My question: Why are you concerned about the moon and not the earth??" Ah, but why *on Earth* do you assume I'm not...

    What is the Highest Temperature Possible?

    I know there is absolute zero for the coldest temperature. What physical laws govern the upper limits of temperature? Or is there a limit at all? The fate of the moon might depend on an accurate answer so I need info fast!

    Things We Can Do To The Moon

    "Drugs're bad, m'kay?" So is a telephone pole up the arse. "First why do you want to nuke the moon into oblivion?" That's between me and the Moon. Second, if you do that, how will you cover it in tinfoil? Well, I never dictated a strict order as to what should be done first...

    If a nuke were to be intercepted...

    Also, about the cancer part. It's called Vitamin B-17. Not only is cancer perfactly curable despite what doctors (whose lively hood depends on your failing health) say, its very preventable by keeping an alkaline body chemistry. Who are you, Kevin Trudeau? Urine is the only substance we can...

    Wll Computers Ever Be Fast Enough?

    Well, won't hardware advancements overtake the complexity of software at some arbitrary point in the future? Especially if quantum computing manifests, it would render a lot of dense calculations trivial, or so I've been led to believe.

    Great. So now my tinfoil idea gets shot down too. You know this is like telling a kid that Santa Claus doesn't exist? I hope you're happy.

    Wll Computers Ever Be Fast Enough?

    I've been thinking about this for some time. I tend not to upgrade my computer until there are significant gains to be had from doing so. For example, I went from a Pentium 90, to a Pentium II 333, to a Pentium 4 2.5 GHz over the last ten years, upgrading significantly in each case. As I first...

    Is current computing technology dying?

    I knew when Intel withdrew from the 4 GHz barrier we were in trouble. Not that it's a bad thing in the long run, as it forces chip designers to start ushering in the new era. I can recall articles from a few years ago projecting that Moore's law would not even be able to *keep up* with the speed...

    If a nuke were to be intercepted...

    "But intercepts are probably meant to occur a long way away, like hundreds of miles over the ocean. " That's what I've read as well. The sooner the intercept can occur, the better. The point is to hit it before it's armed.

    Things We Can Do To The Moon

    MetalStorm, I had thought the France cheesmarket thing was disproven, but I'll recheck my data. Everyone else, thanks for the highly technical info. I learned a lot. I must say I'm disappointed that our nuclear stockpile can't penetrate to the moon's core. The optimist in me can't accept...

    Things We Can Do To The Moon

    "we might be able to shatter it, but it would take something like a few million times the worlds current nuclear arsenal. (cite - random guesswork)" What about the nuclear pounding of it in the same spot over and over? The merciless, brutal, pounding repetition of the white mushrooming nukes...

    Things We Can Do To The Moon

    I hadn't thought about the dance factor. That is a really nice idea. In fact, you may have inadvertently stumbled upon the lunar origins! It isn't such a stretch to imagine that the moon may have been a giant disco ball for Loki and the giants way back in the day. Then along came modern man and...

    Question about Zeno's paradox

    Very interesting. I guess my question now is, what is a convergence? How does an infinite series approach a limit such as a whole number?

    Question about Zeno's paradox

    What gives you the idea that I know the answer? The fact that motion exists doesn't solve the paradoxes mathematically. It demonstrates a physical refutation only, which was not the thrust of my question.

    Question about Zeno's paradox

    Sorry, I meant the stadium paradox (dichotomy). But in any even, which paradox isn't the issue, because all of them can be defeated using demonstrations of actual motion.

    Things We Can Do To The Moon

    These questions may not be *highly* technical, but I require technical answers of the highest precision. Here goes. First, I think it's obvious that we can't leave the moon unmolested. At a certain point in time, we're going to have to alter the thing to suit our (mankind's) particular needs...

    Question about Zeno's paradox

    Most explanations of this paradox that I've seen solve the roblem by demonstrating that since motion is physically possible, the paradox goes out the window. I am wondering, can the paradox be solved without resorting to this? In other words, what is the pure mathematical proof and the reasoning...

    Godel's Theorem

    Can anyone summarize Godel's incompleteness theorems in something that resembles layman's terms? I'm not formally educated in mathematical theory so I am somewhat limited as far as what I can comprehend when gaggles of math jargon are used. However I do enjoy the subject and I can figure out...

    What was your first really great pc game?

    I have never played FPS with a mouse. I still use the time honored technique of pivoting my character with the arrow key! And I've always beaten every game with this method, though I'm sure the mouse is much superior. I just played Doom I and II for so so many years without using the mouse that...

    What was your first really great pc game?

    Doom I, which blazed on my cutting edge Pentium 90. Doom II seriously altered my life. My first session on that game went about 16 hours. I can't imagine how many hours I logged on that game...too many to be healthy. I also liked to play the Doom I demo, which allowed unlimited armor points...
