  1. 1. You cannot delete the internet from your computer. The internet does not exist on your computer. The only thing you can do is pull the plug on your internet connection.2, You cannot open up the control panel and delete your internet connection. You need to pull a cable to stop your internet connection.
  2. Great! Apple is being a big, corporate crybaby again, just like they were in the 80s, only this time with less hypocracy.
  3. Runis Lingua is the name of a language I am building, based off the ideas of simplifying and improving English through the elder futhark alphabet. http://www.us.to/ The website is quite simple, but it works. I might change the embedding of news stories, though, because it makes the design look worse than it needs to. The goal of the design is not to look good, but to be compliant, simple, quick to load, and renderable correctly on a text browser.
  4. You can destroy sections of the internet, but it is nearly impossible to destroy every single server in the world, thus truly destroying the internet, and this possibility is very, very remote. Taking out key servers owned by ISPs can render the internet inaccessible, but not truely destroyed. Even then, people can revert to the many hobby BBSes that roam various parts of the world, though I doubt that anyone is willing to look behind the poor graphics of the BBS world.
  5. Popups are absolutely fine, as long as they aren't advertising something.
  6. In the state which I live it is legal for me to drink alcohol so long as there is parental supervision. The few times I have drank alcohol, I've never been drunk, however. It might be because it tastes terrible, and after I tasted each drink that contained alcohol I had to wash out my mouth with coca cola to get rid of the taste. My father likes to call Mountain Dew "camel piss". I like to call alcohol by the same name.I've never been high, however.
  7. Actually, the tobacco inserted into today's cigarrettes in the USA are genetically engineered to increase their addictiveness, IIRC. In other countries it seems to be different. Worse or better, my friend cannot tell.
  8. She is a talentless hack who only got a contract just because she can look good. Same thing with Paris Hilton and Jennifer Lopez. Et Cetera.

    All I believe they do if you respond back to them is propogate your email to other spambots, and further clog your inbox.
  10. Of course you can through WINE or Cedega, but that would be a waste because you are emulating Windows through those applications, which is pretty much worse than just having Windows in the first place. Natively, you cannot run Call of Duty, because Linux has its own special binary format just like every other operating system.
  11. We have 8 billion people roaming this world. I don't think a few people who've strayed off from their instincts are going to affect us much. In fact at this point it might as well do us good by controlling the population.
  12. You have a better chance of Eugenics finding out the secret of body regeneration than cloning at this point.
  13. Defcon's definition of hacker is one who works in the field of computer security, and a cracker is a hacker that exploits holes in the security to steal identities, take corporate records, etc.
  14. You need a compiler such as GCC(if you want to use the engine I mention), an engine such as eDuke32, and software for game materials - Blender for 3D models, Audacity for sound samples, OpenMPT for Music, and GIMP for textures and graphics.
  15. I do believe cloning will be beneficial - if used incorrectly war will be unnecessary, and if we get to a good enough stage in cloning we might just be able to grow individual replacement organs(without a body) for ourselves. 1. I do not believe in divine intervention.2. Cloning will not copy your neurotical state - the clone still has a mind of its own even though it has the same body as you do. 3. By the time a clone matures enough to make a brain transplant feasable you'll probably be dead. 4. Due to the scarring of nerve tissue, and some other various reasons it is not possible to transplant a brain, at least at this point. 5. If God didn't want us to triumph over problems that would otherwise shorten our lives, the entire medical community would have been already slain by a hoarde of angels and spears. What I would be really worried about would be stem cells, because unlike cloning, stem cells can be abused to kill, deform, and do other various things to humans that would simply not be preferrable.
  16. The pale blue dot in this photo taken from Voyager is our planet: This little dirtball we live on cannot be the only source of life. Considering this picture there is bound to be more life somewhere in the universe - I mean, IIRC, this photo taken from Voyager isn't even out of our solar system.
  17. Tetraca was just an odd name I came up with. Tetra means 4, which was something I learned meant 4 in Russian at the time. I took that and added a ca at the end to make this username.
  18. Clear your desk. Shut off and hide any electronic devices you can. Write your homework in a mechanical pencil so you can erase and you aren't tempted to take it apart because it's hard to. Usually by doing that I was then able to focus very well and finish all the things I needed to finish.
  19. You may lose weight, but it's supposed to be dangerous. As it's always been, the best idea is to eat a balanced diet according to the food guidelines and exercise 30-60 mins a day.
  20. Being the guy who shunned away from any life with social activity face to face during High school, I can't give you the faintest clue. But, there's a net you can surf out there that's sure to give you your answer, and if there's nothing on the net about it, you can always ask a friend. Have no shame in asking a question unless its ABSOLUTELY stupid.
  21. Due to reasons with electricity, cooling, and helping very slightly to save the environment, I do not keep my computer on 24/7. If I had a BBS, I would probably have a computer running 24/7, but there are other systems to do that.
  22. She must have lived a healthy life. I look foward to growing old(seniors are the happiest age demographic in the population), but I probably would not want to be that old...
  23. Meh. A lot of medications are addictive. Few "good" medications fail to have some kind of addiction.
  24. I've got a 1982 Honda Accord with a rust modification
