AU is not

astronomical unit

its constant, I think its the gjennomsnittelige solavstanden

what inhouseuk

said

although, parsec seems to be based on au, which makes it more retarded than au itself :)

of course

wb

:)

hi

yo

anyone knows what composer Leschetitzky is?

I think its a misspelling

mo: i believe i once read that the earth is either moving closer or further away from the sun each year... not that it's a huge distance, but if i remember correct, that makes au retarded :p

Gjennomsnittlig!

:p

average of which year?

I disagree with you :p

the next year the average is either lower or higher

�_�

whatever I'm not even sure that thats what an AU is

I know using 'lightyear' as a mesurment of length is retarted anyho

except for the "year" part, it's not that retarded :p

whatever

How would you do it in metric? Is there even a prefix for that much? Exameters?

several houndret thousen million kilometer?

not saying meters is sane either :)

ok now I know you don't know what your'e talkign about :p

eeewwww

tsss... i just want a system that works intergalactic :p

speed of light in vacuum works, but then you need some sort of time to determine the distance... what that should be i have no clue :p

Hmm, by my calculation 1LY ~= 9.5Tm

We can work with terameters can't we?

can we drop this now ? :P

cool ice

oi pretty

it was just above freezing during the day, but dropping to -15C at night

Always scares me walking under that kind of thing :-(

it's always scary walking under *anything* in Ukraine. Most of the buildings are in a bad state of repair :(

anyone know how to get the number of elements a hash has in perl?

a hash is a # right?

%

not a tocicant? ;)

% is procent

mo: when you're talking about symbols, yes

It was years since I did some perl work. I stick to python now a days.

you guys remember that awfull 'Masters of the Roll' series?

I'm fixing those now

grr

keys( %hash )

I think

better length(keys(%hash))

cause it has to be in scalar context

I think :-)

that prints 1 for something with 3

I can't work out whether these DVD+Rs are dodgy or whether my drive is.

it's driving me nuts.

hmm.

don't think it's the media, a different make are also not working...

mo: "percent", not "procent" (that's almost norwegian) :)

ohh

that's what he meant

prosent mener du? :)

yeh

:p cik

it's like "per cent" :p

prozent in german *g*

german sucks! :p

sorry :p

IE suck, it doesnt display it, but firefox does

I know

its right to left to, like hebrew isn't it?

no

hmm

arabic and hebrew are the only common scripts that are right to left

I know urdu is that way

yep

urdu uses the arabic script

isn't urdu based originally on arabic? I think I read that at omniglot

the script is

such an usefull site!

the language isn't related at all

well obviusly

afaik urdu is almost the same as hindi

lol a cab driver I had once told us that a pakistanian and an *indian can talk together and they'll understand eachother perfect, but if they write something its ???

it's the other way around with the scottish and the english :)
