PC formatted floppies worked fine, back when Macs had floppy drives. I believe the last Mac I had that came with a floppy drive was sometime in the mid 90s, though. You'll need an external floppy disk station. Floppies for PC are FAT32 formatted, and macs, even the old version mac OS, such as OS9, read FAT32. MACOSX both reads and writes FAT32.

It's just a computer. It will crash and annoy you, but if you keep a complete backup, you'll be fine. There are standard formats, designed so that you can use the same files on different computers. Some are open standards where all specifications are known, some are proprietary, where the company that made the standard has patented the specifications, but licence them out so that other companies can make programs that open or create the file format. And then there are some companies that are so big that they don't bother about standards. They can make a new XML file format that have top secret specifications so that you can only open it if you have their overpriced text editor and spreadsheet software. And some people write software that opens and creates files in a proprietary format that they haven't bought a licence for. most picture formats open on any computer, PDF open on any computer, most audio formats too, except some DRM-ed files can cause problems. You could just transfer your files and see what opens. As an extra bonus, viruses and other malware for your PC won't be compatible with your mac. It really, really annoys me when someone uses a proprietary file format that requires expensive software to share something as simple as a text document or a photographic image. Yuck! Have fun with your new computer. I've had my current macs for more than 5 years, and they still work great. Only a couple of hard disk crashes, but that is only to be expected. They were expensive when I got them, but they've lasted, so they turned out to be good value. Relax, you can die if you mess up, but it will probably not be by bullet.

To your original question: I've met a lot of married skydivers, at least at the DZ where I jump. And pregnant skydiving chicks who can't jump because the belly is in the way, and proud skydiving fathers who post pictures of their little ones on DZ.com, and movie clips of 5-year old sitflyers in the wind tunnel. This leads to the conclusion that skydivers have normal family life like everyone else. (and messy divorces and breakups and unhappy marriages just like everyone else) I'm guessing that hard openings could affect the sex life, at least temporarily, but what do I know, I have a quality canopy, and haven't had any really bad ones yet.

I thought that it was commitment and love that counted, not money. And diamonds are just compressed carbon anyway. Overpriced compressed carbon, sure, they are pretty, but factory made oneshttp://www.apollodiamond.com/, or even top quality zirkonias are just as pretty. But I guess it's part of american culture.

It seems photoshopped to me, but cute all the same

My family's big, black male cat once came home with something black and furry that was as long as himself. It was a rabbit that he'd killed, and once he was home with it, he started eating it. It was someone's pet rabbit, there are no wild rabbits where I live. I'd strongly advise against letting mr. Bunny run around the back yard by itself. You can buy harness for them, and maybe not lead them like a dog, but use it to have control over the rabbit while it explores.

Some people overreact and get angry and flame you when they are scared. It might have been a factor here. Have you talked to the guy and explained what you did and why? There may be better ways to handle this, as others have pointed out, but I wouldn't want to go out of the plane with my pin out, and I'm sure he wouldn't either.

Oh no! The skydivers are on fire! They're smoking! And the swoop doesn't count unless you stand it up! You're the wrong way down in freefall, I saw you! Awesome video, great music, some wicked canopy flight. Keep flying, boys!

#37 The Quoter: The ones who quote an insane amount of text to make just a small remark at the bottom of it #38 The lazy poster: who just posts a link to another website/youtube video/newspaper article, without writing anything for themselves. It doesn't take much energy to copy and paste. Annoying if the link provided is for a site that requires login. I'm of course neither.

I don't see your weight as something that would prevent you from being a great skydiver. Many of the really good ones are long and thin.

I'm guessing that the male, or "used to be male" is the black and white one. The calico one is a female. If it's a male it would be a chimerahttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chimera_%28genetics%29 Nice kitties

It's like that all the time in Norway. No alcohol sales on national day, christmas, new year, elections, sundays etc... If people could BUY alcohol legally on days like that, they's maybe DRINK it on those days. And we can't have that! Relax, you can die if you mess up, but it will probably not be by bullet.

I have reliable sources that these vests are not suitable for pulling chicks. The girls I have talked to today state that "they are hideous", "not attracive at all" and "we don't like the message they send, I'm so tough and badass just because I wear fake protective clothing". Trust me, I know about these things Edited to add: Well they already make fake leather helmets, so I guess there is a market...

It's actually more sensible to just lie down and cry for help in a situation like that. It was just a race. That's what I would have done, and indeed have done on one occation.

Oooooh! I want turkey! I make a really juicy, tasty turkey with sweet potato mash, peas and cream gravy, but I've only made it a couple of times for my birthday and new year's eve. There never seems to be an excuse for making it. Relax, you can die if you mess up, but it will probably not be by bullet. I'm a BIG, TOUGH BIGWAY FORMATION SKYDIVER! What are you?

It's OK to throw the handles and I hope you've been tought that by your instructors. You are a lot more expensive than a couple of handles. And the skyhook is just an improved version of the RSL. It can fail. You should pull all your handles. Relax, you can die if you mess up, but it will probably not be by bullet. I'm a BIG, TOUGH BIGWAY FORMATION SKYDIVER! What are you?

I have the impression that "trash pack" is a poorly done packjob, or a packjob done so fast that it can't have been done properly. Often involving just stuffing the canopy in the D-bag like a sleeping bag. Definetely not recommended. this: http://www.icaruscanopies.aero/canopies/Omega/packing.htm is a psycho pack. It's just a different bagging method. I've never seen it IRL, everyone at my DZ makes S-folds, even though there's a lot of hard to pack new PD nylon there.

You can never get "the real news", impartial, objective truths. The news or any facts will always be colored by the opinion of the people who report them, and I think it's better when the news reporters don't pretend that they are telling you the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. I hate Fox News too, but that's because it's annoying. And norwegian news is getting increasingly annoying too with stupid interviews of people in the middle of the news broadcast. Well, there's always the "off" button. Relax, you can die if you mess up, but it will probably not be by bullet. I'm a BIG, TOUGH BIGWAY FORMATION SKYDIVER! What are you?

Incredible. I only use yellow on crossover cables, grey for straight ones. But I somehow doubt it would look any better in grey. I gotta show this to the guy who decided that we use VMWare.

This thread is really interesting for us scandinavians who grew up with IKEA. The americans are confused about the big blue and yellow box, and don't really know what to do with it. They get frustrated and angry and dislike it at once, but they still want the stuff inside, so they can't just leave. Relax, you can die if you mess up, but it will probably not be by bullet.
