I believe it is determined by your video card. You could try fiddling with the about:config settings:
webgl.disabled webgl.force-enabled
Though it wouldn't surprise me if you started to get BSODs.
It has uses beyond cutting: <http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/tech/butler-diamonds.html>;
Yes. For example: < https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deinococcus_radiodurans >
"...outdated beliefs..." I didn't know ethical decisions had an expiration date.

You're right to infer that the Christians did their fair share of burning as well, if not more so in this case.
If the Muslims didn't burn down the library of Alexandria I wonder if the Renaissance wouldn't have come much sooner.
An interesting story of ants I've experienced: when I was in California some time ago standing duty at a barracks, there was an infestation of ants everywhere (anyone in California can guess the type of ants they were). To kill some time I found a can of ant killer and proceeded to spray the ones surrounding a vending machine that they took over. 30 minutes later to my surprise, other ants had found all the places where I had sprayed and cordoned it off with gravel they carried with them as a warning to other ants. Has anyone come across other interesting behavior like this?
This whole ordeal smells IMO. Though I'm probably biased from my recent experience in seeing Daniel Tammet and reading the following: http://infopractical.livejournal.com/77298.html

Ah yes, blame the user. That's always the best policy.
Of course if you have IE6, gzip can be a problem.
What does that mean anyway? We can't even come to an agreement on how to treat human persons.
Maybe he's a Calvinist.
"A dog sniff conducted during a concededly lawful traffic stop that reveals no information other than the location of a substance that no individual has any right to possess does not violate the Fourth Amendment [...]. Official conduct that does not 'compromise any legitimate interest of privacy' is not a search to the Fourth Amendment. We have held that any interest in possessing contraband cannot be deemed 'legitimate,' and thus, governmental conduct that only reveals the possession of contraband 'comprises no legitimate privacy interest.'" -- Justice John Paul Stevens, Illinois v. Caballes
The majority opinion seems pretty reasonable to me: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illinois_v._Caballes#Majority_o...
"...only 44 percent of those alerts by the dogs led to the discovery of drugs or paraphernalia [...] For Hispanic drivers, the success rate was just 27 percent.".
Seems like a significant percentage to me on both accounts. I don't see how the words "only" and "just" are justified.
Of course blindly smearing Fox or Talk Radio isn't much better...
I've been called both baby killer and hero.....whatever.
VBScript
Pretty simple, but a couple flaws: #1 - delete should only be used on properties. #2 - The example for inheritance is not quite right as the constructor member and the instanceof relationship no longer works as it should.
Don''t MySpace demographics paint a different picture? I was under the impression that MySpace had a higher prevalence of non-whites and lower income members. (Sorry, I can only find indirect references to this claim)
Don't worry, I'm sure the NSA has it on a server somewhere along with the rest of our communications.
Alcohol does not kill brain cells but: "alcohol ends up damaging dendrites, which are the things at the ends of neurons" - and - "[...]causes a vitamin B1 deficiency[...]. This, in turn, causes neuron death".
I'm glad that's cleared up.
