I wonder how much code there will be in the software handling this file system which reports back to M$ what your browsing habits are, or maybe there will be measures to prevent you making back up copies of copyrighted materials.
I think they spelled tinny correctly. Even on/. tiny is not an adjective I'd expect to be used to describe sounds. Tinny however pertains to its lack of depth across the sound spectrum. More a ping than a full blooded KERBOOM.
I realise I leave myself open to YHBT YHL, or "have you no sense of humour?" But I'm fed up today, so I'm being a pedant.
I think from memory planet earth flips its magnetic polarity every 11'000 years. Its kind of spooky because the Sun's sunspot cycle has max and mins on an 11 year cycle.
If you ask me, that kind of coincedence is a doom monger's dream LOL The end is nigh!
Was the story about Google going public, or was it about their search mechanisms?
Frankly I think that it was about the floatation, therefore references to your page being in position 5 when its the busiest page you have are indeed irrelevent. Well moderated whoever marked this as off topic.
Strange thing is though, I made an on topic post against an off topic post;p
Its good to see that a.COM is actually being floated *AFTER they have started to make some cash.
Perhaps this may spark a return in confidence to the shares in the technology sector.
It also shows that if you offer a good service, word of mouth can make you a market leader. Perhaps M$ should bear this in mind instead of pi55ing around trying to tie everybody into Bill Gate's megalomania trip with very suspect EULA's for their development kits.
Yeah maybe it needs more skill to keep running, but I've seen houses where they run windoze. Windoze is well known for self terminating without a reasonable excuse, coupled with its ability to destroy data with ease means that you still need a fleet of people wandering round fixing broken desktops.
For me I'd go for the additional expense of higher skill requirements. You can offset this against massively reduced license costs.
Without flame, would you, if from a hit and run accident, were left paralysed and dependent on the benefits if a welfare system, have suggested pulling 15 billion from welfare to support research in space technology?
I think not.
Suppose you have a child who becomes addicted to crack or heroine, would you like to see a reduction in funding of the DEA, so we can still harbour pipe dreams of making manned flights to Mars?
I don't know how to interpret the bright spot which can be seen towards the centre of The Sun, but I suspect that is the sunspot based on the picture in the article attached to this story.
If you live far enough north, you can check out the chances of seeing some aurora at the same site, by clicking here.
Will it be able to see through clothes like x-ray spectacles can.
If so I can imagine the techies running this thing, pointing it earthbound during the late shift and feasting there eyes on some lovely girlies, whose clothes offer no protection against its steady stare...........;)
You have a perspective that not many of us have. But do you still feel a little pride that whatever it is that you have published has been *blagged* and published elsewhere.
I know it doesn't make you a richer person in monetary terms, but surely in your own mind you can build great mounds of inner peace and tranquility because people have taken the time to read and be impressed by your work. Impressed enough to make illegal copies.
I wish I had the ability/motivation/imagination to create something worthy of publishing. I feel that I will never know the feeling of having unauthorised copies of my work.
My car *DOES* that. I call him Herbie. The only problem is, when he decides to park somewhere safer in his judgement than mine, it takes me ages to find him.
IMO better to have all the responsibility for yourself than to share it and find that something you didn't expect happened because you thought it was covered elsewhere.
Yeah, probably the biggest load of shite I've spouted today. It was a bad play on the word innocent.
I was just sitting thinking about it and for me personally being accused of something I haven't done does not lead to embarrassment, but something closer to anger.
All the accusations of guilt aimed at me in the past are all true;-P

I forgot to mention that I would line the drilled hole with carbon nanotubes and have big fans either end.. ;P

I'm glad I haven't wasted time patenting the *PREVIEW* button. ;)
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.......Winword. I think I have a cunning plan...........
You lot owe me loadsa cash now ;)
I think they should have all their skin peeled off and dressed in a vinegar and lemon dressing as a punishment.
"KAIZO"(Japanese) is a very standard word which means "MODIFICATION","REMODELLING","UPGRADE".
