I wish it was a continuation of the first series. And that the first series didn't have such and anti-climatic ending...
-
That is cool... but not worth the money.

I believe terratag also makes the logo for neo magazine.

I hate summer. Love winter.

Emos have taken over the world. At least I'm not depressed. :wink:

Haha- I can play Zelda's lullaby on the ocarina. But I'm crap at it...

Off the subject of intros, I got volume 1 of Samurai Champloo in the post today. I've seen the first episode, which I found hilarious.

Ok, because I was trying to work out some kind of connection and wondering why Shizuru and Natsuki were it otome etc. Another character that they had from the last one was akane, and that weird teacher/gardner guy from the last one had some job at the castle. This series doen't seem as good as the last one, although its hard to judge form the first episode; the first episode of the original series wasn't that good either. Also, all the otome seemed to refer to each other as "onee-sama". I wonder if they're actually supposed to be sisters, or if it's just some kind of title (the -sama suggests this).

Ok... after watching that first episode of the new series, it makes very little sense to me. Is it supposed to have any connection with the original series?

Hi im new to this forum, need to know whats what

The problem with a welcoming thread is that ony newbies and mods look at it. -
It's just different words for the same thing- in England it is called both the contact force and the normal force.

You still won't see it; you can't link directly to FAQs.

If you want one that's easy to learn (and good) you could try "the Sick Rose" by William Blake. Oh Rose, thou art sick! The invisible worm, That flies in the night, In the howling storm, Has found out thy bed Of crimson joy: And his dark secret love Does thy life destroy. And that's it. (No longer a copyright, as Blake has been dead for well over 50 years)

The technical for the opposition to your weight (the force your mass exerts due to gravity) is "contact force". It follows Newton's third law, which is commonly cited as "every action has an equal and opposite reaction". The ground you stand on exerts an opposite "contact" force equal to your weight, so you don't move. If you are standing on snow, the force is less than your weight so you sink. It isn't tecnichally correct to think of gravity as a force. It's the fact that all objects warp space-time, so objects recieve a weight corresponding to their mass depending on the objects they are nearby (a big simplification).

The smartest people look up the solution on the internet when they can't figure it out. :-p (like I did last time)

If you give me the original, Stocka, I'll try to translate it.

7/10 It doesn't really appeal to me, but I can see that others would like it and it's very cleverly done. -
When I said you can't write complex numbers or irrationals, I meant that you couldn't write them out in full- i is simply a representation and irrationals vary forever. I suppose you could say that 0.999rec is a representation, but people can realistically see from it exactly what the number implies, to however many decimal places they want.
-
Well... it should be possible to write down all numbers right? (to a degree- I'm kind of exluding irrational and complex numbers) If so, then the difference between 0.999rec and 1 must be a number you can write down, but you can't, therefore the difference doesn't exist and 1 = 0.999rec. This is a wordy version of a proof someone posted further up.

Number threads- YAY!! \0/ Religion threads- BOO!!

Actually, according to physics, you can reach the speed of light, but not surpass it. Anyway, are you trying to think of something like the graph of root x- the gradient gets closer and closer to 0, but never actually reaches it? This is a different case. If you don't that proof, then look at some of the earlier ones, such as the ones with thirds, or x=0.999rec etc.

It seems a non-posting parasite has gripped us all in a struggle to squeeze the life out of these boards. I for one won't take it! Now... is it worth posting this...?
-
No, it doesn't. I can't exactly explain why because I'm not good enough at maths, but I'm sure someone else here can. It's to do with the fact the the number is 3 rather than 9. 9 is only 1 away from 10, making it much closer to the rounded number, and when the 9's reccur, then it is what was the rounded number, which is no longer a rounded number. I believe (although I may be wrong) that 0.33999rec is equivalent to 0.34.
-
0.333rec and 0.34 aren't the same number, someone's got a bit confused. The only numbers that we're saying are the same are 0.999rec and 1. I can see why you thought 0.34, although your logic is slightly twisted. 0.999rec (or anything with .999rec on the end) is a special case, as the number infinitely progresses towards 1, and thus (brain-twisting bit) is 1.

Congratulations! I thought it would be a little more than half an hour before someone got it. EDIT: Well, you're pretty much right.
