German has pretty much the same word order as English (conditions apply of course).
Not being an iThing user myself, I didn't know what this Tri-tone
is supposed to be. And it doesn't seem to playable at or even linked
to from any of the story links.
Doesn't this therefore render the copier as "unfit for purpose" and you can get a refund?
I doubt it as the work-around is so easy: just change quality-settings from normal to high and the problem disappears. The factory default settings are obviously bad, but since the settings can be changed so easily I don't think it qualifies for the "unfit for purpose" - claim.
Let's copy paste from the other crash article on Slashdot's comments...
Let's not.
PAPI lights were available for the Asiana landing. It's the crash that broke them,
and they have long since been fixed. Look at the dates on those NOTAMs.
That design pretty much defeats the whole purpose of having an emergency brake.
Ugh.
You might be shocked to learn that cars don't actually have emergency brakes.
This mechanical lever thingy was never intended to be one, and you won't find
the word "emergency brake" in a (modern) car's manual.
In the case of the Square Kilometer Array (named for its total collection area by the way,
not because it is "spread across a kilometer of territory", whatever that's supposed to mean), none of it is noise.
The SKA relies heavily on processing everything, using advanced phased-array
and other "inverse beam-forming" techniques to look at multiple targets in multiple
frequency ranges at once (the final design will have continuous coverage from
70 MHz to 30 GHz!).
This is only possible with centralised processing, so none of the antenna sites can throw
anything away: They don't know what will be important.
in TFA, the person creating the pretty images is cited:
"Wifi waves are about 3 to 5 inches from crest to crest.
The crests of waves is translated to a 1 by a computer,
and the the troughs equal a 0."
Wonder where range safety was, but don't know what their protocol is; it might cause less damage if it goes off on the ground as long as its unpopulated versus an air burst. Someone in the know can weigh in here?

Range safety is entirely achieved by... well... range.
That was one of the larger modifications necessary to Soyuz-2 for it to be allowed to
launch from Kourou in French Guiana: The Kourou-launched russian rockets do have
self-destruct capability.
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg unveiled a new ad from FWD.us, his pro-immigration reform PAC.
This is inaccurate. The main focus of the PAC is on guest workers, not immigrants.
That always works so well. To alleviate a shortage of workers after WW2, Germany had
a "guest worker" program, inviting over a million of mostly young
men to work in German industries, for what was assumed would be a limited
time, after which they would return "home".
Guess what: Germany became home, and over 60 years later, there are now
millions of third-generation descendants of those guest workers living in Germany.

First off, argue one way or another, but one is an established publication (multiple actually), and you posted some blog on the interwebs to refute it.
I posted actual facts to refute it, which should not be judged on where they are published
If you look at all those "established publications", you'll notice that they all pretty much write
the same thing, paraphrasing the content of some alleged decoding, but not actually citing it.
My link (where at least some people actually seem to know what they're talking about) supplies
the full "decoding", which to everyone even with just a little bit of background in crypto and its history
and usage in WW2 is obvious nonsense. And that's even without considering the actual alleged
message content, which just makes it even less plausible (at least half of it is useless gibberish).

your table is for total energy consumption, not for electricity.
This explains the huge amount of oil in there. Nobody in his right
mind uses oil for electricity generation.
JFTR, here's the breakdown for electricity in 2012:
source [PDF] - includes an interesting row for "percent renewables",
rising from 3% to 23% since 1990.
So yeah, still a long way to go (lignite? really?), but working hard on actually going it.

Completely and utterly offtopic, way to go moderators.
This story is about the destruction of hardware belonging to the Guardian,
in the Guardian's basement.
It has nothing to do with any kind of seized property - a fact you would know if
you had read even just the summary before going off on a tangent.
[I haven't read or understood what this is about]
Yup, that's about right.
This has never been about deorbiting, but about recovering the
never-made-it-to-orbit-in-the-frist-place first stage of a multistage rocket.
Not being an iThing user myself, I didn't know what this Tri-tone

So here it is.
Aaaaah, that one.

You misunderstood the new findings:
Apple's iOs has been known as a bastion of security for many years
Uh, what? The fuck it has.
That had me chuckling as well.
Remember when you could visit a website to "slide to jailbreak"
from right inside the web browser?

UK units are irrelevant because the UK has no space program.
Oh?
This is why ships still have gyros.
So the only vessels at risk are those with 100% vegetarian crews.
It's probably not too much of an issue then...

It's a parking brake.

What is this, slashdot punbaiting?
I'm sure you have a citation for this "obligation to postmark".
Mind providing it?
Let me help you with a link to start from:
"Postmarks are not required for mailings bearing a permit, meter, or precanceled stamp for postage"
Even the US GPS system requires you to get a fix on at least three, and preferably four, satellites to really put you on the map (as it were).
Not this again...
You need a minimum of four sats, period.

When did that happen?
The title is the wrong way around.
Fix: "Zelda level modelled after town of Ipswich". And it's not even playable...
That's not what's happening. You are being front-runned.
...the peer-reviewed research says different.
Ok, then cite it please.
The License Fee MUST be paid if you won a TV set
What if I simply bought one?
Also look how well insurgents in Iraq and Afghanistan have done before you write off a gorilla force with just small arms and IEDs.
Also, banana peels. Never underestimate banana peels.
OK, so there is a game called A Slower Speed of Light...
How about linking to it?
