    Under US tort law, is wikipedia liable?

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regeneration_%28biology%29 "Studies in the 1970s showed that children up to the age of 10 or so who lose fingertips in accidents can regrow the tip of the digit within a month provided their wounds are not sealed up with flaps of skin -- the de facto treatment in...

    Sealing shrink wrap?

    I've had no luck sealing it with the heat of a soldering iron since it burns holes right through the plastic. Does anyone know if Michaels, kinkos, or home depot have shrink wrapping services or seal plastic? If yes, will their hardware accommodate a basket about as large 4 xbox consoles stacked...

    Sealing shrink wrap?

    Thanks for the offer, but it's due soon and I can't bother to wait for shipping. How does the sealer work? Does it melt the plastic together?

    Sealing shrink wrap?

    I tried that too, but like I said, the hair dryer melts the adhesive.

    Sealing shrink wrap?

    What's the technique to sealing open edges with a hot knife? I already tried tape and glue, but the hair dryer I used was melting the adhesive off of both.

    Sealing shrink wrap?

    I have a crafts project due (I needed an elective easy enough to give the sufficient college credits to graduate) and I have no idea how to properly seal shrink wrap. Since a sealer is way too expensive just for a single occasion application, what's the best way to emulate how a sealer works?

    I am a total newb when it comes to networking. I want to setup a legal torrent uploading and downloading box out of my backup system (since my main system consumes way too much power power to idle on utorrent). I want to accomplish this remotely, without a need for a monitor or at least minimal...

    Which 22" widescreen should i go with?

    I just became aware of another B&M monitor deal at circuit city. http://www.circuitcity.com/ccd/productDetail.do?oid=162989&cm_keycode=85 How does this compare with the newegg recommendation.

    Why is good mem needed for Oc's

    I heard that cpus used to overclock without the need to raise the FSB. However, retailers were marketing CPUs as higher models and CPU makers got greedy and needed an extra incentive for buyers to get a higher binned chip. The overclocking mechanics seem artificial to me, especially when decent...

    Dead or Alive 4: The Review

    The purpose of countering is to discourage patterns in your opponent's attacks. From reading your review, it is apparent that you have problems with this "game fix". I don't think the purpose of countering in DOA 3 was to ever have a 33% chance to give free, loads of damage. If you have read...

    Dead or Alive 4: The Review

    I don't know about you, but DOA 4 is the best fighting game I have ever played. I have to disagree with your review. IMO, the game is easy to pick up and play but hard to master. Turn down the difficulty if you're having problems playing against the computer. Personally, I suck against the...

    My review on Full Spectrum Warrior 10 Hammers

    I know this game is old, but I have come here to vent. I paid $10 FSCKING dollars for this game and it was so not worth it. The tutorial was a PITA because your little guys are strategically incompetent on their own. FFS, you have to micromanage everything with thousands of obscure menus (at...

    Help me stop being jaded

    Thanks for all of your helpful insights. I have to come to the conclusion that my displeasure regarding the truth (there is no purpose in life but surviving and deriving pleasure from self satisfaction) came out of the belief that humanity should serve a better purpose. I now take satisfaction...
