Talk:Scorpion (Carmilla Black)

message: THe "Victorious" reality from Runaways is listed here. Although there is person named Scorpion mentioned, it most likely refers to a figure sporting a large tail with a stinger being shown, as there is no one even remotely resembling Carmilla Black. Furthermore, the issue in which this took place (Runaways Vol.2 #1)was published months before Carmilla Black was introduced. Thus, im removing the paragraph.

thread_title:  Acerrae 

message: This statement doesn't make a lot of sense to me:
"Though ethnically Celtic at the time of Roman conquest, they were most likely the result of the fusion of pre-existing Ligurian, Celtic and Italic population strata with Gaulish tribes who had come from what is now southern France."
The first part of the statement (that they were ethnically "Celtic") seems contradicted by the fusion statement, which is unsupported by a scholarly reference. Note the fudge of "most likely," which means there must be discussion of this somewhere. "Gaulish" is usually used of the language, I think; "Gallic" of the peoples. Better is "Celtic-speaking," if that's the case.
That the Romans regarded them as Gauls, or Celtic, can be stated as fact; we can define their Celticity as asserted in ancient sources. Testing their Celticity in modern terms is a separate task.
Also, "at the time of Roman conquest" — what does that mean? The first Roman commanders crossed the Po and fought the Insubres in 224, but the article implies that the Romans were instantaneously successful. That wasn't the case. In 199, for instance, Insubres defeated Gn. Baebius Tamphilus at Ariminum, after it had been a Latin colony for decades; and that's pretty far south of Mediolanum. The article seems to omit Gallic victories. This is to fall prey to the myth of the Roman military steamroller as a kind of manifest destiny, when in fact there are various points in the Italo-Gallic wars when things could've gone a different direction, and momentarily did.

thread_title: Another adoptee to add: Sarah McLachlan

message: What is an adoptee?  Certiainly, a step-parent adoption - most of those on the list - is very different from other types of adoption.  Just because it occurs under the same set of laws does not make the experience of these people similar enough that they should be grouped together as "adoptees."
I suggest breaking the article into a table with two sections:
Unrelated Adoptions
Adoptions where both parents have no biological relationship to the adoptee.
Related Adoptions 
Adoptions where one parent has a biological relationship to the adoptee.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tobit2 (talk • contribs) 05:45, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

Talk:X terminal

message: We need cites on this resurgence in X terminals. (And probably on commercial use mostly being X server programs on PC desktops, though that's my experience.)
Anyway, I finally found a picture of an X terminal. Yay! - David Gerard 22:37, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Usage in recent years?

message: It should also probably be noted in the article that the cost advantage to X terminals or other thin clients is not in the initial cost of the hardware, but in the overall cost of ownership.  A thin client is much less expensive to maintain (especially in keeping software up to date, no need for backups, and so on) than a full on workstation or PC.
Conversely, if someone really wants a full on workstation or PC on their desktop, the hardware cost differential is going to be less important to them than the functionality differential (real or perceived).--NapoliRoma 15:27, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Cost vs. other desktops 

message: Is it a good idea to mention some of the specifications (cpu/memory) that these devices had?  They had the same microprocessors that some PCs had, others could be upgraded into actual workstations.  Could also be worth mentioning how they booted via the network, as they lacked hard disks and flash was too expensive during the early 90s.  74.88.1.95 (talk) 04:55, 27 February 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Ransom Room

message: This article does not state if the room was finally filled with the gold and silver or not, and if the Spanish ended up taking the gold. It was my understanding that it was filled and then they executed the 'sun god' anyways, but I am not sure.
----
The "story" told in this article seems to be quite at odds with the one told in Battle of Cajamarca. Basically these two articles seem to tell two completely different stories. That suggests that one or both are wrong.
According to the Cajamarca article, the events at the Ransom Room were essentially the final act. Yet this article talks about actions before the Ransom Room, which appear to be a very different telling of the Cajamarca battle. If the events described here are part of Cajamarca, which they seem to be, they need to be moved.
In fact, both seem to be at odds with the version in Spanish conquest of the Inca Empire, which leads me to believe they all need serious work.

thread_title:  Dating 

message: Couple of concerns. First, why state the amount in 1847 dollars? Second, using an inflation calculator, the 15,500,000 seems low, at only 456,000,000. A room of those dimensions filled with gold to that height should be worth a lot more. Way, way more. The volume was 22 x 17 x 9 = 3,366. In 2010, a cubic foot of gold was worth about $19 million, so that room would be worth $67 billion.

text: Here is a simple implementation in C++. It prints the efficiency of the wheel. Basically it says that you can eliminate 50% of the numbers by only testing odd numbers for primality. Then you can eliminate a further 17% by not testing numbers that are equal to 3 when you divide by 6. You can eliminate a further 7% (for a total of 73.3%) by only testing numbers that are in a certain list when you divide them by 30. And so on. At the bottom I provide a couple of hints how it can be combined with any other sieve or primality test. -- Nic Roets (talk) 19:34, 5 April 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Gemünden (Felda)

message: I did a quick test and changed the template to 164px for the map instead of 165px and the map appeared properly. My guess would be that the file in cache on wikimedia servers is corrupt one way or another (that is, the 165px version, pictures are cached in different sizes on servers rather than being converted on the fly). As it's probably easier to upload the image again with a new name instead of requesting the wikimedia team to fix the problem, I'm going to do just that.
