All you did was reverse the calculation that was done in the comment you are replying to. He already stated that warp 9 is 1000 times the speed of light: "the velocity of warp 9 must be 1,000 light-years per year"

Made me think of the trisquel logo, although that is apparently related to many other historical symbols and is probably less math and more design. http://trisquel.info/en/wiki/logo

I got my Dad a NUC for Christmas...He hasn't really been using it yet. I think this might have been a more interesting and simple gift, wish it came out in time. I did get to play with the NUC because I wanted to have it all configured

I would just like to say I have never been a major user of Adblock. There are two reasons I have always been okay without it: 1. I feel somewhat bad about using a free service and preventing them from getting ad revenue 2. I'm really

This is just not true (your first claim that is, I would say people use it for multiple reasons). Adblock can certainly conserve resources in some cases. I know one webpage that loads 2-3 very resource-intensive banner ads every 30 seconds

Simply search for artists you like and follow them. You can follow artists that follow them or artists that they follow to get more. I'm pretty picky with following artists (I make sure I love mostly everything on their profile) but it

I always heard "shouganai" rather than "shikataganai". Looked it up and found out neither is wrong [1]. Shouganai is actually shortened from shiyouganai (using the same shi kanji as shikatagani) so that can be used to ge

The creators of Intel's 4004 (arguably the beginning of the microprocessor era) and the 8080 are the same men who left and founded Zilog. I would argue that the heart (brain?) of the work making these microprocessors so great is Masato
