Yes, but it backfired on the white men: now white women are jumping on the "black is hip" bandwagon. Increasing numbers of white men are being cuckolded by 7-foot Mandingos. That'll teach whitey to play god with black culture.
...could spur Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo to role out new systems sooner than they want.
Blatant misspell aside, what that will mean for us is more red rings of death(and the Sony and Nintendo equivalents) from rushed design and testing as well as games which are basically glorified tech demos with no real plots or stories.
Problem #7: Non-Detachable AC Adapter - How is that any different to the Ipod coming without a user replacable battery?
Because the iPod battery is internal. Could you imagine the iPod's battery hanging off of it, permanently attached with a 3-inch cable? Apple'd be selling a helluva lot less of them if that were so.
Microsoft may just have.NET patents and contracts for their own sake, as SOP. Pragmatically, it would be a mistake for them to sue Debian or Miguel. I think they realize that because they haven't yet gone after Miguel.
I agree with you there. How else would we do it without consuming the same amount of electricity? I guess it would depend on one's ideology but personally I'd rather spend the extra dollar contributing to medical research than worry about shooting a couple coal puffs into the air.
TFA: "However, Microsoft says clearly that only Novell can supply Moonlight to end-users:".
Rolling Mono (note: Mono != Moonlight) into Debian would be beneficial for both Debian and Microsoft. I don't believe that Microsoft will take legal action against Debian or Miguel, but it wouldn't surprise me in the least considering Microsoft's recent suicidal business divisions.
I don't think it's a bad analogy. Just make a few substitutions:
In modern America, we are faced with the possible oppression of the human race at the hands of the military industrial complex. The scary thing is that these agents take on forms that make them blend in with our everyday environment. We don't see the threat because the threat is masquerading as part of our normal world.
But seriously, this is horseshit. The only bad guys they catch will be the ones up in
the nosebleed section sitting alone with their girlfriends who are discretely giving them
head or playing "bouncy-horse" on their laps.
These are the same folks who bought the last four copyright extensions with mass "secret" donations and visits by Disney-sponsored hookers to congressional offices.
So our congressmen are not only corrupt, they're also furries?!
Mrs LizardKing once said that she'd attempted sex when she had the painters in,
As in, not with you? Try using the personal pronoun "I" before you experiment with sex. Disclaimer: my girlfriends and I were younger than menopause when we experimented with period sex. If you can't properly lubricate then just spit on it.
As if you were just saying, "Half-digested period blood-chunks are brown". Yes, nerds, they are. If you can't handle it then go to Digg and beat your dicks for eternity while the real men turn their women into jelly using their mud tires.
Plus it's better for sex: The lubrication eliminates the need for boring and time-consuming foreplay, and the increased blood flow "down there" helps the ladies with their cramps. Just be more gentle than usual all-around and lay down plenty of black towels.
Then, when you're done, immediately throw the towels in the washing machine and have a shower together. Just don't look down at the drain unless you're into Norman Bates.
My junior college has two ways to start. Both ways may be done concurrently.
The first "track" is to start with C/C++ (which is a cool intro because both C concepts such as arrays-as-pointers and C++ concepts like streams and classes are taught) and then go to Java 1 and 2, or C#, or object-oriented C++, or even VB in any order without prerequisites.
The other "track", which does require prerequisites, is to start with scientific programming 1 and 2, then assembly/machine language, then engineering programming.
There should be a range of options for the n00b depending on skill and course of study.
One existing solution is having a mechanical dummy gun fire blank rounds at certain intervals. Looks like we'll have to wait for the real thing...unless you're saying that all of those unemployed Elmer Fudds in the south could be put to better use;)
But that was a written letter from one man to a family member.
Over the internet, we see mannerisms and memes spread virally, evolving and being adapted by the collective. Good luck tracing internet vernacular to its sole originators.
It's also possible that mannerisms and memes emerge concurrently because they're just part of the zeitgeist, the time is right. A seemingly non-related example would be that the two-handed tapping guitar technique was used by Queen's Brian May years before Eddie Van Halen used it. Though EVH is credited for inventing it, it just gradually emerged concurrently because "the time was right".
I have a suggestion. When a user is given mod points the names, relational (zoo) status, and the scores should be hidden from the user.
That will prevent the user spending their points on the basis of not liking the posters or following groupthink. Same rule should apply to metamods, of course.
And yes, there are ways around it, but the moderator would have to be a real turd to comb discussions as AC or sockpuppet and jot down posts. Hopefully people with mod points would be too lazy to circumvent in such a manner;)
Flamebait. Flash works fine in Firefox on XP. I know it's en vogue to run noscript on Firefox, that's why you have to click that button in the lower right-hand corner to get Flash to work.
Are you expecting +5 because your username implies that you have a vagina between your legs? Lay off the H.I.M. and My Chemical Romance and listen to some real music, tart!
well, unless the plane nose dives and the computer proves/indicates it is unreliable.
Good point. Disclaimer: I am a former Air Force avionics tech, F-15 TISS. Military fighters and civillian airliners are different beasts but I understand that the F-15 had a quad-redundant (trivia: the transporters in Star Trek: TNG have quad-redundant buffers) flight control computer.
Google searches reveal that Airbus' flight control computers are pentuple-redundant (two primary and three secondary flight control computers).
Another factor to take into consideration is that not all airline pilots are experienced. I don't like to dichotomize (like the poor summary of the article, dammit KDawson) but a pilot's first storm could bring hardening experience or crushing defeat.

3. Private!

Fuck Louisiana. They passed the Science Education Act which mandates that creationism, er..."intelligent" design, must be taught alongside evolution.
Fuck the south, and FUCK RELIGION. Hmmph. Talking to a fucking invisible man in the sky. Pure and utter stupidity.

Fixed that for him.
Silly Raytheon.
There aren't going to be any terrorist attacks.
You just throw money at congressmen.

For USB you need to slap on a whole expensive dedicated chip.
Not to mention extra code.

+1 speaking from experience ^_^
Sadly, they are leaderless, clueless, and helpless.
That's what people said about the Democrats before they were able to adopt "Hey, at least we're not Bush!" as their slogan.

So, extrapolating from those two points, we just need a big, old-fashioned war.
It worked for DS9 and Voyager...
That's the point, I'd hoped that people would provide more information instead of just wasting space like you and I just did.
THIS IS WHY WE CANT HAVE NICE THINGS.

I heard that there was actually reasonable demand for the EV1.
Obligatory conspiracy theory movie. I wouldn't mind the GM bailout if they devoted more research to hybrid and alternate-fuel vehicles.

Improper context. More accurate would be fly-by-wire vs. Hydromechanical.
Either of the two may be human-controlled and/or automated.
