What Balance in the Force Was Qui-Gon Jinn Looking for? the Jedi Were Plentiful, the Sith Were Thoug

That's not balance. All is good, only jedi exist seems one sided. Qui-gon Jinn was just trying to live by the jedi way and abide by its code. Occasionally he bumped heads with the order due to it contradicted itself, things you'll find in most religions today.

How many Irish regiments fought at the battle of Waterloo?

Three. The 6th Inniskilling Dragoons, the 18th King's Irish Hussars and the 27th foot Inniskilling fusiliers.That's not the whole picture though. About 30% of the entire army was Irish, many English regiments had a high proportion of Irish soldiers.Don't forget the commander in chief, Sir Arthur Wellesley (Duke of Wellington) is also Irish.

What would happen if I plugged 220 volt lights into a 110 volt socket?

They'd be dim if they were incandescent. I'm not sure if that would constitute an increase in current or a decrease. I always assumed incandescents were purely resistive elements so you would run with half the current and probably nothing would happen. If they were LED it would really depend on the ballast electronics and how their construction handled low voltage across the DC transformer.

Why isn't communism as hated as much as Nazism?

Because its a completely different thing. Communism doesnt preach that whole nations should be eradicated. Communism doesnt preach that a select few (a master race) should enslave the rest of humankind. And communists were borderline saints compared to nazis.Alas, there are states in which communist ideology is forbidden incidentally, these states also praise collaborationists who served Hitler during WWII, and are generally okay with nazism

Do you think Apple will get rid of the notch in the next iteration of the iPhone X?

If Apple want to do something like this, have to develope on screen camera technology. As you know its not so easy to do this and i think Apple cant make it in one year. Face ID is very complex technology and its hard to hide all of this hardware behind the screen. Maybe 23 year later we can see completely bezelless iPhones. Looks like Apple will go with iPhone X design for years

What happens when you donu2019t put a resistor in a series with an LED connected to a 9-volt battery?

Im not certain about a 9v battery, but I can tell you what 12v will do.It was about 45 years ago, and I absent-mindedly connected an ordinary red LED like thisacross the 12v DC output from a Scalextric transformer. With a loud crack the LED self-destructed instantly with pieces of plastic flying around the room.

I made a mental note to myself not to do that again!

Is It required to update Cyanogenmod Nightly daily?

If you think your current version has a few bugs that affect usability, then I suggest that you update often. If you are concerned about the data usage (updates download the whole ROM file everytime. ), you can try this app:Rather than downloading the entire package, it downloads only the necessary files that were changed in the update.

Who are the descendants of the Xiongnu today (2014)?

The descendants of the Huns are the Chuvash people of the Urals and to a lesser extent the Bulgarians. Hungarians are not closely related, they are of Finnic stock. The Huns originated in the Altai Mountains and shared a common ancestor with the Turkic peoples. Oddly enough, the closest relatives of the Huns were the Margianese, a branch of whom became the famous Sumerians who started civilization

Which is more evil: Communism or Nazism?

Because some of the world leades belong to the 69 generation, when the communist ideas were popular. Many of the todays american neoconservatives were maoists, and Barroso the previous president of the EU was trockyst, and Juncker, the present president few months ago celebrated the 200-th birthday of Karl Marx and inagurared a 5 meter tall monument of him.Unfortunatley the communism still very attractive method for the politcal elite.

Has Darth Maul's corpse ever been recovered?

The other answers were written in 2014 but things have changed since then. If I remember correctly, Darth Maul and Savage Opress were killed on Mandalore by Darth Sidious. I'm sure Sidious wanted to cover up the deaths because he doesn't want to be revealed until after Order 66. My guess is that Sidious disposed of the bodies in some way

If electricity flows positive to negative, then how can the resistor come before the LED

i think ,it's not going to be a good idea to connect 3 LEDs in parallel (different colours)as every LED has it's own forward bias voltage drop and in parallel connection it is necessary to maintain the common potential difference. So we can eliminate this problem by adding resistor of desired value in series with LEDs in each branch of parallel connection of LEDs

That is the sound of what the Obama administration did, interrupted by the sound of beer bottles opening at the infamous Rose Garden meeting of Boston policemen and the Harvard professor they thought was breaking into his own homeNow hear those cheers? That is the sound of both political parties cheering when President Clinton added 100,000 policemen to communities across America

What do you think of President Duterte's war on drugs in the Philippines?

If Duterte is allegedly winning the war on drugs, then how come the smuggled drugs into this God forsaken country are now running in Billions?! Instead of being cowed in fear they have become more brazen to bring them in and in such mind boggling amount? Just think about it! Why are they so BOLD?

What does a shark taste like?

Shark tastes like fish, it cooks to white, flaky fillets and unless you were told you were eating shark, you cant tell it apart from any other good eating table fish. Small sharks like Gummy Sharks are caught commercially and sold as Flake in some parts of Australia. I have often eaten shark, either bought from a Fish and Chip shop, or caught myself.

Were the Jews ever repaid for all of the work they did for the Egyptians as slaves?

Oh, Nefretiri had a few reparations she wanted to give Moses, but he turned her down. At least thats the Hollywood version a la Charleton Heston and Anne Baxter.What happened in real life we can only guess. If they remade that movie now, theres no telling what might go down

Daenerys doesnt have a claim to the iron throne. Neither would her brother or her son if he lived. Her father, the last Targaryen king was beaten and overthrown in war. Daenerys shouldve stayed in Meereen where she created a seat for her new Targaryen dynasty

Why did Apple discontinue the iPhone X when they are still selling older phones like the iPhone 7 & 8?

When people buy a new model, the iPhone 7 and iPhone 8 can be a choice for most people. The initial reason for discontinuing was avoid confusing product line-up. The XS is the natural successor to iPhone X. Now, Apple could have lowered the price of X as they have done with 7/6 etc models

Is Guns Nu2019 Roses the greatest band ever?

No. But Appetite For Destruction, is probably the greatest debut album. Ever.An interesting question would be: Which band/artist had the best ratio of killer:filler on ALL of their releases? My vote would probably go to Talking Heads or Paul Simon.Please don't say The Smiths. Morrisseys voice disqualifies them in my not so humble opinion.

Is the Internet making us stupid and shallow thinkers?

I am sure you are not asking this question on a serious note. Internet has changed our lives for better, infact much better. Products like Email, FB, Google, Youtube and Twitter are excellent knowledge sharing platforms. You get to know so much about what is happening in the world and around you. Internet allows us to be free and is a best 2 way communicator as against TV and Radio

Hypothetical Scenarios: What if African slavery was never introduced to America?

Slavery was alive and well in the America's long before 1492. In fact, it was common throughout Asia and Africa as well. The Europeans were less likely to have slaves than anyone else. Their use of slaves in the Western hemisphere was actually a throwback to ancient times brought on by plantation economics

Why could the communist party of China reform its economic system without chaos, but the communist party of the Soviet Union couldn't?

Because liberal idiots in Russia go wild west way with free market, while China go evolutionary step by step.Another problem Russia became independent only in 1999, and before that served as US client state. So called foreign advisers were interested only in plundering natural resources, and further weakening already half-dead country.

What do you think the biggest reason for the German defeat in WW2 was?

Actually according to present day Germany, the Germans were not losers but victims who were freed from the Nazis.It is quite amusing that rewriting of history has already started with Germans now claiming the USA freed them from the Nazis when everybody knows the Germans fought to the bitter end to STOP the USA from freeing them from the Nazis

Do serious rock musicologists really consider The Stooges to have been the greatest rock band in history?

The Stooges definitely have their place in rock history. Raw Power is probably my favorite album. Search and Destroy is a great opener and at at it's worst the songs are still enjoyable.And I'm pretty sure there are bands out there that would cite them as an influence.

I could easily argue they belong in the top 10, maybe top 5. But they lack something to push them into the top 3, let alone the greatest

Why does Robert Plant hate Stairway to Heaven?

I suspect Robert Plant is just over the song - by which I mean its basically Led Zeppelins theme song; after all, he has referred to it as the wedding song. I saw him as a solo artist during his 1st tour in the early-mid 1980s - I was foolishly wearing a L.Z. T shirt. Of course everyone was expecting him to play THAT song - which he didnt.

By releaving Austria from their desire to rule Germany and to keep it all chopped up to keep France happy. Plus, Prussia proved better in military and cultural reforms.

Why weren't Hong Kong & Macau given back to the Republic of China instead of People's Republic of China? ROC still exists today!

Prior to 1971, Republic of China (ROC) in Taiwan was seen as the representative for entire Chinese people. After UN resolution 2758, Peoples Republic of China (PRC) became the representative for Chinese. Thats why the rightful owner of Hong Kong and Macau is PRC.

British cannot return Hong Kong to ROC as they do not recognize ROC
