Not exactly, the amount that is sold is measured at the filling station, not at the delivery station. So it depends on the conditions of the filling station, if that fuel is cold or not, I have no idea, it probably depends on the individual station. Where do you get your information from, might I ask? Petroleum companies make their money at the terminal, when they sell it to that truck. The amounts that are sold there ARE corrected for temperature, because they are stored in above ground tanks that vary greatly in temperature throughout the year. The retail station makes its money when they sell the gas to you, and they don't correct for temperature because their gas is stored underground, where the temperature is fairly constant.
I know that in Michigan, there is Ethanol blending done, not just in the summer time, but all year round. Most gasoline sold is E10 (10% ethanol with 90% gasoline), but I don't know about the labelling restrictions, but I do know that every terminal I have been to in Michigan has an ethanol tank and does blending in all gasoline sales.
I suppose I could have, but it did work with my Ubuntu installation, so I ended up keeping it. It would have been better to have support with both operating systems though. (And people complain about the hardware compatibility in Linux, I have trouble getting things to work in Windows)
This angers me as well, especially when the product box is wrong. For example, I bought a Streamzap PC remote which claimed to work with Windows XP (all versions), but somehow that didn't include XP x64 edition. I might add that Streamzap does not reply at all to support questions that involve XP x64.
This brings up an interesting question of if this hack works with XP x64.
Did anyone read those? It's kinda funny:

I would argue that MS-DOS is more secure than Vista because you have to be physically present to run programs and you can't run malware in the background.
Actually, you're wrong... I know it's true in my industry, but others may not follow. We actually gain more revenue when prices go down. When prices increase, sales go down. More sales with a smaller profit usually ends up being a higher total profit than low sales with a high profit.
so that means that if he is earning 30c/hour then he is only collecting like 25 gold coins in an hour. Seems to me if he'd work harder he could make a bit more than that. I don't exactly know how common gold is in WoW, but it seems to me that after a month or so of work, his character would be of sufficient level to be making a lot more money than that.
What other job do you know of that putting extra work actually incurs better pay? How many of you wish you got payed on scale with how productive you were? (obviously joking since we are all at work wasting away on Slashdot)
Their "support" for Macs is to give them games that have been out for over a year on PC? Seems similar to Microsoft giving PC users "support" for Halo...
Yes, but when you start Windows for the first time, it asks you to set a password. When you plug in your router, it does not ask you to set up wireless encryption. You can always leave the password blank for Windows, but you were at least given a prompt to set one.
Moral of the story: Never underestimate an idiot... They will always do nothing more than you make them.
PC laptops are horrendously overpriced, which now matches Mac lineups.
Honestly, if you are looking at value, build a desktop. Unfortunately, with a laptop, you are stuck with whatever options you might be able to select, which on a Mac is even less than through sellers like Dell. Why can't I select my own components to go in a laptop?
Automatix is a great tool for Ubuntu that allows you to install many extras that Ubuntu doesn't include by default (including Wine and Picasa for Linux).

So does that mean TiVo can continue to sell their products because their deal was made before GPL3 was drafted?

Obviously someone with mod points has a bad sense of humor...
This is one of the few cases where I think a redundant mod would be applicable.
Better to use the tax dollars funding chip fabrication than to waste it on paying off farmers to grow corn.
Yes, VHS was phased out. I believe the last MPAA film released on VHS was Borat in 2006.

The Tomb Raider movies weren't too bad. I guess all you need is Angelina Jolie (or another hot main character with sideboob shots).
What if I hate Sony AND Microsoft? Oh, then I root for plain 'ol vanilla DVDs, because they look good enough for me (even on HDTVs).
The sad part is, the computer in that video brings up and renders windows faster than my computer here at work...

Won't someone pleeeaaaaaassssssseee think of the children?!?!?!?!?
According to the Mirriam Webster page, it can be pronounced either way.
