I think it depends on your frame of reference. North Pole and the various rings around the south pole are correct if you want to end up in the same location with reference to the earth. If you observe the situation from the sun, there's no possible point, since the earth moves while you walk. If you observe the situation with yourself as the frame of reference, any point will do, since you will always end up where you are...
Not a huge surprise... Though I wonder how they're going to wriggle their way out of that one. I'm guessing they'll just try to ignore it and hope it goes away.
- a rubber hammer (for failing hard drives without visible traces) - a cattle prod (for failing "visitors" without visible traces) - a sledgehammer (for failing anything if you don't mind visible traces) - thermite (to get rid of visible traces)
Lots of options - I'm missing the Cimier Watch Academy (http://www.cimier.com/watch-academy-200.html). Nice, stylish mechanical Swiss wristwatch... but you get to build it yourself.
I recently bought a British film on BR which has a "by buing this Blu-Ray, you're supporting our film. Thank you!"-message at the start. Doesn't take more than about 4-5 seconds (basically as long as it takes to read out the sentence to you)... Even if it is unskippable, I somehow don't mind that one too much.
Honestly, if you have enough money to buy fish and still go fishing... ...if you have enough money to eat out and still cook... ...if you have enough money to go to a barber and still shave...
...then you either enjoy the activity or reckon it's not worth spending money on. Nothing wrong with either option.
I'd assume (not having read TFA) that you'd still have to pay international charges to call from, say, Spain to the UK, but you'd pay local charges to call a Spanish phone from your Spanish mobile while in the UK. So I'd say you could get a SIM via mail order from country A, but unless the bulk of your calls go to country A, you still won't save much.
That very much depends on the context - as these things so often do. If he rocked his English SATs in order to be fairly certain he's right, then the sentence is correct without the comma.
As a card carrying grammar nazi I would put two commas in his first sentence, though: Yeah[,] and you're supposed to put a comma in front of conjunctive words like "and, or, but, because"[,] especially if they join two sentences.

I do it all the time on Swiss trains. Then again, if they put a socket above every seat (on modern trains at least), I somehow expect they won't mind.
As Robert Bosch famously said: "I don't pay people well because I have much money. I have much money because I pay people well."

How many idiots will use this in the safe knowledge that they can't be busted for speeding anymore, I wonder...

Works absolutely fine in Switzerland.
Turns out he was hiding in Belgium.
We will not tolerate such foul language on slashdot!
That still wouldn't help for Iceland...

No disclaimer necessary - I don't work for them.

Nope. But it goes whoosh.
I hope whoever bought it will use the domain for something befitting its history... But I'm prepared to be disappointed.

Let the howling of thousands begin... How DARE Apple bring out a new product when they've already bought one!
(Disclaimer: I bought one too.)
Once you "compress" the whole thing to ashes by burning it all down, that is.
Unneccessary. Just get a big enough bag.
Alternatively, get any size bag and declare it's inside "the outside".

Maybe JK Rowling can write another book that has Harry ditch his owl for an alligator. Bam - Problem solved.
Toaster-sized at 18''? That's a quite a toaster...

I'd say it was fucking morons fucking fucking morons.
Of course there is. Even a permanent sunset. You just need to be in the right place.

Sorry, had to be done...

Dude, I want to know which pub you frequent...
There. Corrected that for you.
