The protective qualities of the underbody shields are substantial, but their effect on the overall structure of the vehicle is minimal. In total, the shields only have a 0.1 percent impact on range and donâ(TM)t affect ride or handling. Wind tunnel testing shows no discernible change in drag or lift on the car.
How does one go about convincing a municipality to do this though? We've seen stories here about some high speed networks being built, but what is that first step that convinces a city council to say "Yup, we need that"?
That's a good question. I upgraded by Galaxy Nexus to one of the CM9 nightlies. The video recorder uses a different codec than what it had used. Of course, you don't realize this until you send your mother a video of the baby doing something cute and she suddenly can't play it in Windows Media Player.
I disagree. Snapfish has a horrible track record for me. Most recently, my wife recently had 150 pictures printed via Snapfish. When we received them, 47 of the pictures had visible blockiness and pixelization that are not present in the digital files. Sending the same pictures to WalMart for printing got us nice crisp images.
Really? What if my representatives are behaving exactly like I want them to behave? That gets me 3 out of 535 votes in the House and Senate. Why am I responsible for the other 532 representatives that I can't influence one way or the other with my single vote?
What happens when you aren't under a service contract any more? I never turn my old phone over to the carrier when I upgrade. The previous one makes a good toy for the little kids in the family. It has no cell service. I do still connect it to the family wireless.
Using this logic, Google should be given an account to every forum, every blog, every tube site, every system with a login so that users can see if they are talked about some where on the internet. Sounds like a stupid idea. Why should they be able to log into Facebook when they can't log into that small little web forum?
I feel even more vindicated. Every time I forget my card, they ask for the phone number I used to get it. After trying the two numbers I've had for years and neither works the cashier gets frustrated and asks the next customer in line if I can borrow their card.
That is incorrect:
Wired.com: And of course, the best Jeopardy players sometimes ring in before they may have come up with the answer, if they have, dare I say it, a gut feeling or sense of intuition that theyâ(TM)ll be able to answer correctly, right? Watson canâ(TM)t do that, can it?
Brown: The IBM Research team made a decision that we were not going to ring in unless Watson had already computed an answer with high-enough confidence. There are human players who may have an intuition that they know the answer but donâ(TM)t quite have it on the tip of their tongue, and are willing to ring in because they are confident enough that they will come up with the correct answer in the few seconds they have to actually answer after theyâ(TM)ve won the buzz. That was an implementation decision for Watson that it had to have an answer with a high-enough confidence before it would attempt to ring in.

I have a 4 year old HP All in One Printer. Windows 7 will not install drivers for the scanner or fax portion of the printer. Since printing is by far the least used portion of the 'All In One' part of this printer I have an almost useless machine sitting on my desk. Pretty disappointing, because it scans very well.

I'm not an engineer, nor do I play one on TV, so I'm curious - how does an ultra sonic senor have a blind spot?

This isn't always an option. For example, this school in Chicago bans packed lunches because kids could bring something healthy. Who's to say more principals won't latch on to this line of thinking? http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/education/ct-met-school-lunch-restrictions-041120110410,0,4567867.story
Maybe it was unintentional? Stuxnet wasn't supposed to be released, maybe a code change was made and deployed in Israel and it escaped at that point.

Perhaps you should move from the 'early years' of Steam and actually try it again then. Hmm?

Search warrants aren't required any more. All the cops have to do is claim you were destroying evidence: http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2011/05/16/supreme-court-upholds-warrantless-search-of-apartment-based-on-marijuana-smell/ 8-1 Supreme Court ruling. That should take 50-75 years to overturn, if we are lucky.

It had been 24 hours. They dropped it to 15 minutes.
Sadly, your last statement is true. :(

Wow. Way to make a shitty analogy.

Maybe someday, some historian will care how often we all pooped. Without our saved tweets, how would they know this important information?
Anyone seen any cows recently? I always love when they go 'Moo'.
Not turning it on is probably safer.
