Hey, my gas pumps and registers don't run Vista you insensitive clod!
Seriously, though, I think that you would find more home users using Vista then business users. Many businesses have the option to downgrade to XP, while for the most part the home user does not. I think it would be interesting to see the average daily use of a Vista computer vs an XP computer. I would suspect that on average, the XP computer gets used more.
Transferring music phone to phone has been pretty easy for a few years.
You, my friend, must not have Telus as your carrier. I have a Telus phone and those crooks disabled the file transfer bluetooth profile. Why, you may ask? Well, because that way you have to pay them $3-$6 to download the song/ringtone from thier store. Now, don't think that you will just download it elsewhere, or email it to your phone, as downloads are disabled (except from Telus of course) and all email attachements get stripped before arriving at your phone.
The current artificial restrictions that have been put on my phone have caused Telus to become my #1 enemy, I end up calling them about once a month to bitch about this or that. I likely cost them more in customer support then they make off me.
SMBFS network share? Are you sure about that? I know you can stream to the xbox360 VIA windows media center or something like TVersity, but I don't think these use SMB shares. They seem to use some sort of media share service that includes ID3 info and strips out all file structure.
Assuming that the tracker's mass is 200 grams and your car's mass + you is 1325kg (something like a Ford Focus), you would be billing them for.05% of your fuel costs. So, for a $60 fill, you could charge them 3 cents. Depending on the length of the investigation, I think you would be hard pressed to recover the cost of your stamp.
They are using tissue cultured from a rat brain. They could have taken a sample of brain tissue and then grown it in the lab. The rat may still be alive. Until we know for sure though, the only conlcusion we can make is that the rat is both alive and dead.
There is a big difference between a controlled burn in your engine and a flaming oil well. The oil well is burning with low oxygen conditions, so there would be an excess of CO produced during the combustion. CO breaks down into methane and then eventually CO2, so eventually, sure it realeases the same amount of CO2, but it also creates Methane, which is more greenhousy, than CO2.
Who's got a link to the presentation? It's called "Anatomy of a Subway Hack" and was distributed on the CDs that were handed out. There must be a copy on the Internet, I just can't find it.
That is what the airlines would like. Services like expedia.ca make it easy to search many airlines from one form. This means that customers can more easily find the best sale and the airlines have to compete harder to offer cheaper tickets. Not a bad thing for a customer, but from the company perspective, these sites are forcing their prices/profits down.
I don't know how they plan on winnning that battle by turning away paying customers (Maybe they have enough time to fill the seats with normal customers). Anyway, no one had played devil's advocate yet, so here it is.
Like cooking for us, rubbing the backs of us highly skilled people or being a professional in cleaning keyboards from coffee infestation!
If you are going to suggest that you are skilled, it would help your cause to NOT have multiple spelling errors, include punctuation, and acutally have the sentance make sense. (If you were cleaning "from the coffee infestation" you would be cleaning up after the coffee, not cleaning the coffee itself. Think rat infestation. If you were to clean up from the infestation, it would imply that the infectation itself was taken care of and that you just had to clean up the residual turd droppings.
Since the keyboard is company property, is it legal to scan it for trace amount of illegal drugs?
That is a very interesting point. My current keyboard I bought myself, so it is not company property. Does that mean that they would not have the right to swab my keyboard?
Ahh the `ol dab of superglue every morning as you leave the car trick. I think by friday, my fingers would have a 1mm layer of hard glue. Not to mention that your oils get blocked too and you lose your grip.
Nah they can test all they want, find the dope and I'll be all like "OMGWTF what is marijuana? I have NEVER even seen it let alone touched it. Someone must of sabatoged my desk." Then everyday before work I would sprinkle a little crystal on the coffee pot handle.
He lives in true north and spends summers at magnetic north.
I can second this. I am a Canadian and drive my the north pole (True North) on my way to work. The true North Pole has an acutal pole, that is painded red and white like a barbers pole. This is just outside Santa's workshop and is actually his mailbox. (He get's too much mail for a true box, so they just dump all the mail beside the pole. The magnetic north pole, on the other hand has no physical marker on the surface, so santa goes theere to hide from Ms. Claus and go fishing.
Screw first posts, we have issues that need addressing:
John McCain has a comprehensive economic plan that will create millions of good American jobs, ensure our nation's energy security, get the government's budget and spending practices in order, and bring relief to American consumers. Read each of the sections below to learn how the McCain Economic Plan will help bring reform, prosperity and peace to America.
Or, you know tell her that she should not be storing ANY data on her computer. ALL data is to be saved to the network shares for backup control and security. If she needs to access something on the road, use VPN.
But, when they blow they create large amounts of nitrogen and other inert gasses, which displace the O2. Technically, you are correct that no additional oxygen is consumed, but rather displaced.
It works two ways. Firstly it causes a break in the flow of oil, and secondly it uses much of the available oxygen. There are other ways to but out a well fire:
Dousing with copious amounts of water
Raising the plume- Inserting one metal casing 30 to 40 feet high over the well head (thus raising the flame above the ground). Liquid nitrogen or water is then forced in at the bottom to reduce the oxygen supply and put out the fire.
Drill relief wells to redirect the oil and make the fire smaller (and easier to extinguish with water).
Using a jet engine to direct high pressure water and air over the well.
Using dynamite to 'blow out' the fire by blasting fuel and oxygen from the flame and consuming oxygen in the combustion. This was one of the earliest effective methods and is still widely used. The first use was by Myron Kinley's father in California in 1913
Dry Chemical (mainly Purple K) can be used on small well fires such as those in refineries.
The above was stolen from wikipedia (duh!) and there is actually a page for oil well fires:

No. One cannot profit while using a cell phone in Canada. They make sure that you pay so much that the only one turning a profit is Bell/Telus/Rogers.

Yes. In fact I had to read your comment several times to notice that you typed disturbing and not distributing. This is /..

No, that would be OxyCLEAN.
