Sad, but true. Ironically the fact that internal combustion engines run on a volatile mixture of petroleum spirits was used as early FUD by the electric car industry in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
"Speed of fueling" isn't a very popular performance metric. Were I doing a Cannonball ina Tesla there'd be extra batteries stashed at waypoints along the road to swap out.
Excuse my ignorance, but I wasn't aware the UK paid people for having children. Is there a slang term for this stipend so we can denigrate the practice by its usage?
Because they want to appeal to lazy american parents who believe that companies should do their job for them? Yeah, I know the real reason iz they're run by out of touch old men who think that, "AO" means it's pornographic, but I'm going to give them the benefit of the doubt. Either way, Sony and Nintendo are still the problem though.
Redundant how? Far be it from me to second guess a mod, but AFAIC this was the first reply to parent, and if you want to get technical the joke was that any individual wealthy enough to win an ebay auction probably had a legal staff that would make Apple cower in fear before spying on him which appears to me to still be a significantly unique idea. So I'm curious about said redundancy.
No, I think that is pretty obvious from the story. What the GP appears to be suggesting is that the judge's actions can be excused by the hackneyed old cry that our court system is too buried in lawsuits to expect any judge to have an iota of actual judgement left.
then why not upgrade to a Mac or Even Linux with a 3d desktop. That would seem like a win-win situation, but do you really:
Think you could get management to agree to a massive change like that?
Want to spend the next six weeks answering a, "Where is the start button?", "How do I get on email?" , "Where is the internet, again?" question every thirty seconds?
Think you could risk possibly put yourself out of a job after the adjustment period is over?
I think the biggest problem with Vista is there is no compelling reason to upgrade for business users.
It's prettier. But that's about it. Prettier seems to be a huge reason for most of the end user business customers I've known. Of course that's what IT departments are for, reigning in the baser instincts of management and end users vis-a-vis technology, but it's still been my experience that most people want the prettiest thing that still runs word and power point, utility be damned.
I thought the point was that you don't need access to the machine to make Warden do naughty things. If you could spoof the Blizzard server you could insert any bit of code you want in for the hash algorithm and let the pwnage begin.
You do realize biking to work would entail rising an hour or more earlier, going to bed that much later, and probably leaving no time for hobbies of any kind (not to mention family time, shouldn't we be out playing with our kids so they grow up healthy too?) for some of us.
Funny, I was thinking the exact opposite. An eight oz serving of your average vanilla ice cream (which is like, three scoops) has over 500 cals in it and that's before you add the milk, strawberries, banana, chocolate chips, or whatever. A typical fast food milkshake isn't much better clocking in at about 500 cals for a large. Seems like a perfectly reasonable example to me.
I'd sell my right to vote in a presidential election for about $0.02 . I live in a winner-take-all state and I know my vote only counts for funding purposes. Luckily the overwhelming majority of people here are pretty liberal and vote for the least of all evils so at least my vote not-counts in a less frustrating manner. If I lived in Ohio I'd probably change my tune.
Perhaps they should look at whatever chooses the slashdot page-bottom quotes for inspiration:
Mosher's Law of Software Engineering: Don't worry if it doesn't work right. If everything did, you'd be out of a job.

You should try it sometime. It's fun.
It means that somewhere, the person who's going to become the biggest identity thief in history is looking up HMRC employee birthdays, pet names, etc.

Highly visible, "moral" issues win elections. Solving real problems is far less glamorous.

So anonymity makes people troll, huh? Hobbism makes a comeback.

Dude, rich people said so!

Playing two of the greatest geek urges against each other like that: WoW vs Paranoia... who will win?
Couldn't someone who's not Blizzard, but sufficiently clever replace the algorithm with such a mal-gorithm as well?

Don't they use XCDMA in Japan?
Forgive my ignorance, but is there an MBP meme going around?
Of course I don't game with kids. I'd pwn their n00b 455es all over the screen.
Oh, that's british humour. Jolly good laugh we have over that bit of understatement there, got it?
