So I don't see what Google has a right to bitch about when it is the user that chose to share THEIR searches with Bing and that frankly isn't Google's no matter how much they like to treat user's data as their own property.
I don't see them bitch about the users, not even the ones who use IE and the Bing toolbar. Can't blame Google for slacking off a wannabe competitor for using Google's results as genuine Bing results, particularly the cases with the corrected spelling.
I've stayed in a hospital for a few weeks as a very mobile patient (who had to go out for a smoke). The timing of the elevators was such that doors stayed open for a long time and the close button really worked. You could wait for a minute or so before the doors acted on their own or have the doors close immediately when the button was pressed. It makes sense for a hospital, when you think of it.
Now 99.9% of all the other elevators may have a placebo close button, the one time when the close button was really used (and you learn quickly) it had such a powerful effect that i'll believe in close buttons for the rest of my life.
I had Windows 1 and 2. I see no need to commemorate W1 but i had two good uses for Windows 2:
1) I could show it to people with a MSX or C64 and show them the future (even admitting that it was pretty useless then),
2) the Write wordprocessor could be used with the Paint graphics program via the clipboard. Both Write and Paint weren't particularly powerful but together they made for a useful DTP tool.
I want something that looks like Windows (start button, trashbin, tabs on bottom or top, etc). I tried to find Unity screenshots but found nothing. Does it look/feel like a Windows PC?
Odd statement coming from somebody with the nick "commodore64_love". You're sure about that start button and those tabs?
Anyway, I'm not sure about the GUI items (there may have been a trashbin though) but if I can locate my old 286 somewhere you can come and pick it up. I have Windows 1 and 2 to go with it and IIRC they both fitted on the stock 20 MB harddisk together with MS-DOS 3.2. Does it look/feel like a Windows PC? You bet!
Perhaps anyone can help: I'm looking for an on-line comic that made a joke about this.
Conversation between two guys, one use "LOL" as a response and then asks something like "Did I just say that?". The punchline is that the other guy says "You're losing it IMHO."
Scientists have discovered two potent human antibodies that can stop more than 90 percent of known global HIV strains from infecting human cells in the laboratory
It's a weird system anyway. The outcome of a match is important and so are the results during the season/tournament.
A simpler metric would be to assign the points for a match (0,1 or 3) to each individual player and then divide by number of matches played. The result would tell something about a player's effectiveness compared to his team mates, other footballers or even himself over the years (like whether he got better or whether a transfer was a good one).
So? We get a new version, 'not half as bad as that evil ACTA'. Made by politicians who try to be fair and balanced, taking every side into account. And we're still getting screwed, but this time we say "thank you".
Timeline: SWIFT moved it servers to Switzerland. November 30, 2009: European justice and interior ministers agree to have the US access to SWIFT data. December 1, 2009: Lisbon Treaty comes in effect, giving the European Parliament a large say in the matter, when it was already known there was likely a (small) majority against the agreement with the US.
Now you complain about not being able to trust the US?
Humanoid robots are great as they can use the same tools as humans
That would be interesting in a situation where the robot (temporarily) replaces a human or the tools are special.
Plenty of ordinary tools come with changeable parts, like screwdrivers/drills or tools that can be used with high pressure air. Adding a sort of 'Swiss army knife' of popular connections to the robot is probably more efficient for the robot. Many tools are electronic anyway. Should robots become more obvious in daily life, it seems to me a robot would use its hand to plug its, say, USB cable in a device rather than using the interface for humans.
I didn't use peek and poke, my BASIC was gw-basic on ap PC, but I found interpreter BASIC frustrating in general. It didn't bother me (at least not until I got QuickBasic, Turbo Pascal and Turbo C) because it was wonderfull how I could move sprites across the screen, build my own menu system (this is Windows v2 era) and make other kids envious of my EGA graphics adapter by switching the screen to 640 by 300-something and display all 16 colors and then change the palette to show the other 48 in a loop.
That's what is was about to me, what I could do with it. Pointers in C were frustrating too at first, just like setting up the Turbo Pascal editor, but ultimately it didn't matter.
I wish I could have started with Python and be exposed to all those concepts like 'structured programming' and 'object orientation' from the beginning, although linenumbers and nifty jumps through the code had their charm aswell.

He gave us MS-DOS and Windows, more suffering is unimaginable.

I don't know ECost but the John's Phone isn't currently available either. Back in December, they claim.

If it makes you feel more comfortable, think of the Delorean as standing still and the rest of the universe moving 88 Mph slower.

The caps make your message ambiguous.
Those who have can find a nice 'under construction' page on ejuche.pk.
But does it run (on) Linux?

Does anyone know which comic that was?
I'd say: "Your lab or mine?"
I hope "sladdo" rather than "saddo".

Fortunately, those telescopes are to the north of the epicentre in Chile and not to the east.
It's a great book but it has just a naked python on the cover, they forgot the nutshell.

"Craig Mundie" but I stopped reading the summary after I got to ", Microsoft's" so I might be wrong.
Last August, a company I know moved from Windows ME (+ IE 5.5) to XP. Only because of failing hardware, I might add.
