This reminds me when a friend and I were playing with some reverse DNS tools and we looked up the IP on nsa.gov, then reversed that to gary7.nsa.gov. I've always named my workgroups Gary7 since then.
They're better than the gladiators that entertained thousands by killing or getting killed. These guys actually get to see something out of the sacrifice they make.
Do you idiots have any idea how stupid you look and how dumb you are?
I too have asthma and I agree the new propellant for inhalers isn't as effective in delivering the medication, but I'm afraid you appear to be the one here looking stupid.
Those inhalers didn't release 'green house gas', they released carbonflourocarbon, which when gets to Antarctic gets into the the cold air. When combined with cold air, CFCs react easily with O(3), leaving you with O(2) and Cl+O(1). Eliminating this extremely serious threat, CFCs were banned, and medical CFCs were given a very long time to come up with another solution, which is *takes out inhaler* HFA 134a.
Oh, and when you start a comment with "I believe dot dot dot", you're putting a bright red target on your face.
Yeah, I've wondered what happened to the kind of effort that went into Apollo. It was a Huge Fucking Deal (HFD). I guess all the HFD's went out the window when Those Commie Bastards (TCB) weren't trying to do it first.
Now if only it were The Renewable Energy Race HFD, but TCB isn't really the enemy anymore now that C isn't such a big deal.
The problem with Agent Smith's 'epiphany' is Humans are alive and functional. Viruses are very interesting, but their very existence, reproduction and the fact we have to fear them at all is because they depend on other life to act alive through corruption of cell DNA.
Viruses don't think, they do no good or evil, they just simply are. What Agent Smith said about humans could just as much be said about the machines. He wasn't enlightened, he was just an idiot, or at least a less than brilliant collection of 1's and 0's.
Isn't it lovely how just anyone can draft a law, and then a few more people can make anything sound like a good idea through logical fallacies and not suggesting the perversion the law can lead to?
It's not simply a lack of forsight, it's that they don't give a damn.
I've seen several models of cell phones where you could not possibly disable the fake noise of it taking a picture without replacing the firmware or removing/destroying/muffling the speaker. Even in 'silent' mode it would still do it.
I don't know what good this kind of thing could do. So, you have to warn people when you're taking their picture. What if they don't want their picture taken? Well, there's about as much as they can do if they don't want to be shot, pinched, made fun of, or ripped off.
If they're going to make any stupid laws about anything, then make a law that makes it illegal to use someone's picture to harm them. Oh, wait, that falls under extortion and harassment...
Aww, now I don't want to read/. anymore because of what some person said in a comment. I'm so sad, clearly I've wasted my life reading it in the first place.
There was little alternative before. Linux does offer a credible alternative, more so over time. You can really love fried potatoes but no matter how you dress them, some day you'll wish you had something in the cabinet besides a potato.
Certainly not, I'm just dubious that they found some way to actually get something to turn itself on without power, like they ignored the conventional definition of 'standby' like hard drive manufacturers once did when marketing to consumers.
Anyways, I knew you were joking, I was just pissed off earlier because my English instructor is very uncompromising and I need a little accommodation sometimes with how easily I get confused by how fast she speaks.
There is this server based software the college uses to manage grades and letting students know what assignments are due. I've known about this for a long time but I wasn't aware she had actually taken advantage of it, and not clearly informed us... well, maybe she did, I've been having a hard time paying attention to anything lately, too many big changes to keep up.
This wouldn't normally pissed if I wasn't getting into Nursing, and it's a competitive program and your grades effect if you get in significantly. You have to have at least a 2.5 but I want to have at least a 3.8, and this is not helping me.
Maybe I should actually start using my Slashdot journal to start venting, I've got a lot frustrating me lately.
My point to it not being able to turn itself back on is that it would be useless for standby then, and the claim they have is that it uses 0 watts in 'standby', not when turned off.
I'll not spoon feed you the context of the commentary to an article, though my English instructor would suggest otherwise.
I guess a self-sustaining relay might keep a computer on after it's started and draw nothing when it's off, but the computer then can not turn itself on.

Hey, it's fucking Google, just imagine the sheer bandwidth they could launch at Italy from... how many different countries?!

Now that is a good, old fashioned and well thought out (or experienced) rant. I'm afraid you've landed yourself on my friends list, friend.

It's not simply a lack of forsight, it's that they don't give a damn.
I'm not trying to discount you, but what exactly have you done to help save the world in your lifetime?
Me, I've... uhhh... Hmm... I use Ubuntu! That counts, right?
That just made me think... whether we're using solar, wind, waves, we're still using nuclear. The only difference is where it's being produced.

It is both Microsoft pushes and Linux's pull.
Hey garl, Ihve got a sheecret, do you vant to knhow what is shwaz? Alright, Iyell tell yhou what it shwaz!
Well, they've just got to come Arabian, ididoths.

You need to be careful where you direct your wooshes. Tell me, what's the difference between 'standby' and 'turned off'?
Just rest assured it has the potential to use zero power when you're not streaming music, sharing files or routing packets.
So it quadruples?
But then how would it turn itself on when coming out of standby?
I guess a self-sustaining relay might keep a computer on after it's started and draw nothing when it's off, but the computer then can not turn itself on.
I'm pretty sure anything that uses a semiconductor to switch power to itself draws power constantly, unless they found some way to get around that.
Maybe her plan was to start her own company and wave the white flag at Microsoft after she designed the killer app.
