I dunno, Symbian and WinMo are both on the same level of suckitude in my book.
Didn't Nokia release some MeeGo phone recently? (I stopped caring about it when I found out it didn't have a hardware keyboard). That would have been a good choice since he's not going to type fast with one hand anyway.
I'm sure the Apple employee who turned this guy down has already been fired (mid-elevator ride, in memory of Steve). Talk about an epic PR failure and lost opportunity...
It'll reach a tipping point where the bloated salaries of public union prison guards and cops aren't enough to prop it up. The whole thing has to fall over at some point.
I'm sure the 1% would love to have their private prisons filled to capacity and beyond.
I was just doing some darknet browsing and there is a healthy amount of stuff on there. About half of it is child porn, but still, the number of sites is encouraging.
Nuh uh. A wastegate bypasses the exhaust turbine and controls the boost level. The CBV is on the compressor side and prevents overpressure on throttle lift. A BOV is used in place of a CBV when the application calls for a sweet noise and police attention.
Depends on how it's done, some plants inject water into the ground and then run the steam that comes out through a turbine. Occasionally those turbines need to be cleaned and that's when a lot of arsenic and other nasty shit gets brought to the surface.
Lamborghini's offering robotized manuals, which are true manuals but the shift is performed automatically with the push of a button.
A stick-shift hybrid would be easy to make - off the top of my head, one idea would be to connect the electric motor directly to the driveshaft (this is how F1/ALMS KERS works) and with the use of an E-throttle, it would be possibly to have a hybrid with a traditional manual gearbox. It would require way more driver skill to operate than anything else you can buy off the showroom floor but it's theoretically possible.
America had spelling reform in the 1800s to try and clean up the godawful mess that was (is) British Spelling. That's where the difference comes from, not because they're illiterate oafs.
Yeah and they mostly did a good job, with the obvious exception of "ax" in place of "axe." WTF were they thinking?
I'm an intelligence analyst. We're not going to outsource anything that requires a security clearance, and there's no automated software or hardware that can synthesize multiple disparate pieces of evidence into a coherent picture of the battlespace and an assessment of future friendly and enemy courses of action. Yet.
"Yet" being the key word. If you're a Gen-Y'er, don't count on working in that field to retirement unless you're one of the very best...
The History Channel also had a feature on it, which raised the interesting point that mysterious books of nonsense were a hot item around the date of printing.
It's not that simple. As a perfect example, consider the North Koreans who simply call their country "Korea" and call themselves "Koreans." In North Korea it's no problem, but with an international audience it becomes confusing, and if you tried to comply with their wishes when speaking with non-North Koreans communication would become difficult and silly.
Possibly Chrisq, he's posted that kind of stuff in the open before.
If he's European I hope their FBI-equivalent is keeping tabs on him...if you're subscribed to Wired's RSS you'd know that the actual FBI is more likely to hire him to provide training.
+1 for this. OpenWRT is better if you want to do some serious fancy stuff, but if you're not doing anything exotic DD-WRT will do the job and is more convenient. Just keep in mind this model has a problem getting a gigabit link on the WAN port with DD-WRT, probably not a problem for most applications but keep it in mind.

You'd think they could take a cue from the gaming mouse manufacturers and have a compartment for lead weights.
You will, if you're careful and a little bit lucky.
Uh, yeah? Something wrong with that? Those are the two most common amputees that would come to my mind (although not in that order).

andresa looks like another MS negative-marketing shill to me.
What ever happened to free speech and the land of the free?
It was lacking some profit optimization.

Don't forget to synergize backward overflow.
Isn't that what a compressor bypass valve on a turbocharged car does?
Yep just another bullshit buzzword bingo master like the last idiot...
Any electric car can run on coal. Small electric planes can too.

Yep this is only going to make me use credit cards even less, if that's even possible.
To solve your riddle using the post by itself I'd guess "both"
But to consider the context, you think that the US defines how all English speakers refer to their nationality, so perhaps I should guess North Korea?
So the question is whether each post self-contains all the information needed to discern the meaning of ambiguous words.

Presumably the Koreans know best
North or South Koreans? Or both?

He goes by Quantum Apostrophe on other sites, but Slashdot's karma system makes having an account impractical for him...
