Depending on how loosely you want to define 'overrunning' and 'peaceful', our methods of acquiring California, Texas, and Hawaii may count (all were mostly perpetrated by civilians).
You're right though: We generally haven't kept territory that we could have. The Philippines, Japan, Central America, possibly some chunks of post-WWII Europe if we insisted (West Germany)...
Other products may win out on paper in terms of pure feature lists, but it's the attention to little details, such as the seamless integration of a music player and a product that blows up in your face.
Bah. I like the Unix way of doing things: simple devices that do one job and do it well. I want a camera, phone, music player, and grenade. Not something that does all four poorly.
"powder room" and "washroom" would confuse me (the terms are never used 'round here) but not understanding "bathroom" must have required very special medical treatment.

I decided a long time ago that my headstone would read:
Respawn in 9...
It game me a perpetual background static. Using my headphones was painful.
But I was able to play multiple sounds simultaneously.
So do I, but what I don't see KDE as is functional. The 'Start' menu is just downright painful to use.
And were do you get the ebooks from?
I have no idea which military you speak of...
My money's on Switzerland, Belgium, or Vatican City.
IIRC, the US wanted an unconditional surrender and Japan didn't. The second bomb changed their minds.

I thought they would just release the rods up there, sans satellite. A small rocket would bring it down.
He never said he thought it was funny.
All my favorite stock values are ones with a lot of zeros after it. Too bad none of my stocks are at those values.

That's all I got right now
OpenOffice already has several offshoots: NeoOffice, OxygenOffice, Go-oo...
Even if OpenOffice dies, we still have KOffice and Abiword for our ODF files.
Just hope it's not a monolith.
Would there be any legal repercussions if they don't keep their word?
So? There will always be another one.
Um...Congratulations?

I would put world peace at around 8.
10 would be a massive party with excessive amounts of alcohol.
12 would have half of them die of various overdoses.
the IRLP Still transmits via the internet...
It doesn't need to. And regardless, I just wanted to point out that radio wireless networks are practical.
Somewhat, but that's a problem for the customer to deal with.
...on some company's network...
No it doesn't.
Not really. Our best plan for artificial weaponized meteors is telephone-pole-to-crowbar sized rods of tungsten. Somehow I doubt that much tungsten weighs less than 0.5 pounds.
And it prints money.
