- From the same Wikipedia page:
"On July 15, 2003, Time Warner (formerly AOL Time Warner) disbanded Netscape. Most of the programmers were laid off, and the Netscape logo was removed from the building."
Peak Netscape was 1996. By 2003, they had already handed development off to Mozilla, and Netscape the browser was just a thin veneer over Mozilla's browser.
By 2007, it was just Mozilla with AOL branding and almost all of it's users were people still using AOL in 2007.
- Imagine a disc spinning clockwise, the top edge is moving to the right, the bottom is moving to the left, and the right edge is moving down and the left edge is moving up.
By mounting that disc at an angle and changing which edge makes contact with whatever rests on it (your foot in this case), you can change the direction the disc's rotation moves it.
- The sun contains 99.86% of the solar system's mass. Jupiter contains .2%. The other gas giants make up the rest, and everything else combined rounds down to zero. You could dump everything from Mercury to the Oort cloud into Jupiter and it's still not enough mass to turn it into a star.
- Oddly enough, zip files are a supported playlist format in VLC, so you can just have them open the zip file. I don't recommend it, but it's technically a solution.
Making an actual playlist and having them load that instead would work around your VLC problem and should work in other music players. An .m3u playlist is fairly well supported, and it's really just a list of file names in the order you want them played. Remember to use relative filenames so it works wherever the zip file is extracted.
- The important part is that compared to B-splines, it lets you reduce the data size of a closed form surface by reducing the amount of data needed to describe it.

The first 3 pictures explain it better than I can describe it, the rest is math going into how it's implemented.
- If you did that, you could just sort the pieces into stacks at the bottom until you had 3 of them. You'd have to come up with a gimmick to prevent people from being able to do that indefinitely.
Something like making the play area too narrow to stick every type of piece side by side at once. Or having the 3 pieces turn into a random piece. That sort of thing.
