Hopefully they'll start integrating these deCaptcha tools into Firefox and Chrome.
Captchas became so hard it's impossible for mere humans to solve them.
smart uses some tech to compensate for the lack of crumple.
Basically some slightly-time-delayed absorber built-into the chassis.
The german word for it is "Tilgermasse" couldn't find a proper english term for it.
A lot of ppl fear driving smarts but being more endangered in a crash is just FUD.
Especially crumple seems to be a fetish of US car makers after their historical ignorance of it when they built massive chunks of metal that behaved the way you fear smarts would do.
It's probably already a tradition to lack behind in the automotive industry.;)
And turning conservative?
Why all the hate for change?
"I hate it because it doesn't look the same way as before" ?!?
Same way like the latest Tips & Tricks on your flavor of OS....
latest example OSX Lion. I saw a couple of articles already that list nothing but how to turn off the newest features and make it look and behave like the old version.
Then why even bother upgrading?
Are you trying to become the next breed of those 50% of die-hard-2011 win-XP users because Vista was horrible once and Win7 is just a polished turd in your opionion?
Let loose of the past already, it'll never come back. And it's good that way.
not sure if that was the same show i saw. but that's what i was thinking when i read that.
they had 2 or 3 teams, one used a remote controlled model airplane to carry the life buoy to the person, another team built some kind of mortar which was in fact a t-shirt cannon. after tweaking targetting with a computer to assist against wind they successfully delivered the life buoy within a few metres to the person in the water.
the articel on massively has quite some facts wrong anyway.
the alliance that guy was in had an active war declaration going (during that their opponents are allowed to shoot them even in the normal safe "empire").
So it was in fact sheer stupidity to undock with such valuable cargo in such a fragile ship during an active war.
The attackers didin't even knew that he was carrying the PLEX's. Without checking they also blew up the wreck. But that didn't matter anyways since they all blew up anyway (there is a chance for the cargo to drop intact and then it'd be retreivable from the resulting ship wreck).
In game news reported the victim already left the game for good. No wonder, he's now the laughing stock for almost the whole playerbase. *g*
i wonder, do you see it as a farce because you think he hasn't deserved it (yet)?
Or because they gave it to him with the idea to put some kind of pressure on him to actually do something?
I fully agree that it was questionable. But hopefully it'll work out for a greater good.
In Germany where T-Mobile runs the iPhone.
They give you 1GB per month at 3G speeds (or 4GB for the highest priced subscription) everything above gets throttled to GPRS speeds (64k max).
I'm sure AT&T could find a proper rate to get their network stable.
i agree that (sadly) the majority of germans seems uninterested in any sort of politics. (although many other countries share the same problem).
what adds up to this misery is that the biggest newspaper in germany was somehow supporting the censorship by spreading propaganda by dissing everyone opposing the the law as "child-porn-supporters" including but not limited to a few politicians from established political parties but also CCC / AK Zens_ur / Piratenpartei (german Pirate Party).
with the main stream media incompentent of realizing the consequences and actively working against the freedom and rights of the citizens all we can hope for is the "Bundesverfassungsgericht" (german constitutional court). If they don't prevent this law i'll lose the last bit of hope for this country as the german constitution says "There is no censorship."
even US antitrust experts say that intel deserves that fine.
the law says they can be fined for 10% of their turnover which was 37+ billion euros.
so intel can consider themselves lucky for not having to pay 3.7B euros or about 5B USD(!!!).
but depending on intels reaction the whole case could be brought up again (since more and more "witnesses" or "intel business partners" are speaking up now) possibly ending in the 5B fine.
best move for intel will be to swallow the fine and keep a low profile in the future. or it will turn out even more expensive.

vs BMW 5 series
not too much of a difference, except that you have higher chances to kill pedestrians in a BMW
after i explained what GEMA is / does: "wtf? so they're the music-nazis of the world?"
As always with Apple products it's alot easier.
No hassle with assembly and danger of hurting yourself in the process.
And ofc all transparent and glass for cooler looks: http://osxdaily.com/2011/03/18/boost-iphone-reception-with-a-glass/

so you can have more than one battery bricked?
on german news they said there are no gas lines as norwegians solely use electric heating since they have an abundance of clean energy (water).
could write a lot more but what for? i'd be preaching to the choir here, wouldn't i?
when they're prolly going to announce that a water-ice meteorite had been discovered, that also brought extraterrestrial life with it.
NASA press release

well if he intended to be funny or ironic he should have written his comment that way.
"if you don't want your beliefs ridiculed you shouldn't have such funny beliefs"

me (33), shortly afterwards my chemistry grades went from barely average to A
especially in the last years parents pumping their kids full of behavior adjusting drugs? Ritalin maybe?
there are mayn variations of it, but it's still always a cross. even if named medal officially. its commonly named "Bundesverdienstkreuz"
you can see on the photo that he is wearing this one: http://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Datei:Bundes-Verdienstmedaille.JPG&filetimestamp=20090210164105

i was under the impression that lasers in the visible spectrum are the least powerful so for the purpose they'd use a spectrum that's not visible.
;)
so have fun finding an appropriate mirror for that spectrum
and i bet noone wi'll get blinded by it either.

Their wrongdoing was to give a single retailer an unfair advantage over all other retailers who could have made similar cheap bundle offerings.
Not because they like milking the MS cow. It's the law in the germany. MS surely has enough lawyers, so they should've known better.
The risk seemed low. They had been caught. MS swallowed the fine.
End of story.
