I can't imagine an electric motorcycle would be much fun either.
I do have an electric motorcycle (Home built.) and it is a blast to ride. Virtually unlimited torque, so far I do not know what the top speed is.
Technically I suppose it is a hybrid. But it is a properly designed hybrid. The drive train is all electric, with an internal combustion system for recharging only when the batteries run down. As soon as I get the automatic recharging system working reliably it will be one awesome machine.
Thank you for that.
I can just imagine watching RMS's head explode when he had to present either of those items.
I will be smiling all day thinking about that.:)
My theory is that they are scrapping it because it worked. If it works, people can't run their pirated copy of Office whatever, and instead of running out to the store like a good little lemming to buy the latest MS Office. They instead go and download OpenOffice, LibreOffice, or just start using Google Apps.
It took me a while to learn this, but you are SO right.
Any time I have bought clothes at walmart I have discovered that the "great deal" I thought I was getting was not so great once I washed the clothes a couple of times, and they shrunk, fell apart, or just looked like shit coming out of the dryer. I gave up and started buying clothes for more expensive retailers, these clothes have seem to be much more durable. So I get to waste less time shopping for clothes.
My brother has a 5 year old Harley, and I have a 30 year old Honda CB900 Custom. On a riding trip we will occasionally switch off and ride each others bikes, so I can tell you having ridden both the Harley has something, I do not know what, but it is special.
That said my 30 year old Honda is smother, quieter, easier to ride, more reliable, and sexier.
For example: The day I picked up my CB900, my brother and I went for a ride. We stopped at a bar where a lot of motorcyclists stop, and within minutes I had 3 guys checking out my bike and ignoring the two Harley's parked next to it.
Try it some time. I have walked out on a restaurant bill several times, when I felt the food was bad. Just be sure that you leave most of the food on the table in case law enforcement are called.
I have also walked out without paying for a haircut where my hair was butchered.
The people in whatever establishment have no authority to hold you. They can try a citizens arrest, but you simply laugh and walk away. If they touch you, you can successfully sue for assault. 99 times out of 100 the cops won't even show up for a someone walking out on a meal bill.
In my opinion. the last versions of Netscape were huge bloated and just about unusable. With a terrible interface for email. As I recall at the time I used Eudora for email.
Could I replace your Thunderbird with SeaMonkey/Mozilla Suite or Opera?
No. I have found that all in one solutions generally do not do anything well. Remember the last versions of Netscape?
Opera is for people who feel the need to be different so that they can be different.

LibreOffice is good enough for me.
If I told you once, I told you a million times, Stop exaggerating!!!!

You forgot the most important thing about Corvettes.
Everyone who sees you driving it assumes that you have a really really really small penis.

I bought my first modem not long after watching Wargames. Side note Wargames was the first movie I ever went to without parents.
Do you honestly believe you are not enslaved? How cute.
Not quite what you are looking for, but awesome anyway.

This will probably mean the end of Microsoft as well.
Likely the beginning of the Year of Linux on the desktop as well.
Just because you can't work at home doesn't mean you have to wear pants.
I downloaded the movie that came from... And don't call me dude.
Yeah, I don't covet my neighbors ass. ;) Fortunately there is an exploitable loophole in the commandments.
His wife's ass on the other hand is amazing.
but I can't help but think if these two ate a little less maybe they could afford to buy the goods they were caught steeling.
His name is Doctor Zoidberg to you!
Don't call me Shirley.

Notify all local media outlets.
And bring my own camera crew so I could post the whole think on youtube.
I hope they enjoy their $1.
If I were in charge at Google, I would go in person to deliver then an enormous $1 cheque.

Yes it is. My sister had exactly that, until I brought her a cheep router.
No! I hate webmail! You can take my Thunderbird when you pry it from my cold dead hands!
