Ah, Slashdot. Where even the First Post can be declared "Redundant".
It's not hard. Just First Post this: Amid protests in the streets and on social networks calling for Guatemala's president to step down after the assassination of a whistleblower attorney, Guatemalan police have arrested a Twitter user for 'inciting panic' through tweets. In the capital city today, police raided his home and confiscated his computer.
gnome-app-install is a great non-commercial app 'store' insofar as it's more n00b-friendly than Synaptic and whatever KDE openSUSE uses. Ubuntu's partner repositories or Click-N-Run are also candidates.
now if he waits 3 hours in a day then you approach the cost justification.
I don't know about you, but I keep my computers longer than a few days. That investment will continue to pay off throughout the lifetime of the laptop.
If 30 million people each pay one Sek, how does that not pay the fine?
It pays the fine, but the company loses it all to handling fees. Ever been charged a dollar or two when getting cash or checking your balance at an ATM other than one owned by your bank?

I dunno... Stopping the snakes takes a bit more effort than daydreaming.

I concur. I love raw vegetables, but find cooked vegetables extremely bland.

Yes, you said that already:

You know about XKCD and not the big room?!
I know about the Big Blue Room. Hence the 'fort' comment. We all live in the basements of our mothers' forts, all of which are in the Room.

A new rover with the recently invented instruments I hope.
Newer than either probe already there? Certainly.
Anything less than 5 years old? I doubt it.

What you call a house is actually a 'fort'.
Surely I don't need to link to XKCD?
My back-of-the-napkin estimate says you claim it is only ~300 miles to the far side of the planet.
10 miles / 5 years * 148 years
Honestly, with how cheap real video cards are I cant believe anyone would intentionally use a memory sharing video card.

I block everything...

The Ultimate OS ends with a 'z'
What are you talking about? 'WOPR' doesn't end with a 'z'.
Saying "Hi, it's me again. The usual." Doesn't take that long. Including ringing time it's maybe 10 seconds, so I can get 3 or 4 pizzas a day.
I would say he's losing more money to his cell phone bill, but he may have had minutes to spare. I only used 18 last month...

^^^ Just my 2 cents.
Nearly 4 million USD.
If there weren't a big yard between us, it would probably knock out my neighbor's WiFi too.
Use a satellite dish to aim. Or maybe a round metal strainer would work...
