If most of the sand blows along the ground, it will collect at the base of the wall until it becomes a long sand dune. Since they are using bacteria, I could imagine them then solidifying the uppermost portion of the dune to make it higher. Rinse and repeat until your mountain (or hill) chain stops growing.
As a linux fanboy, I'd be like, "Pick me, pick me!") This kind of thing is extremely hard to do well.
Depends how they ask. It it is something along the lines of "Would you like to answer a few questions?", my response is much more likely to be negative than if they mention it's about IT.
Also it is used to make them obey authority and brain wash them to cultural "moral standards".
Funny, those from the Red end of the political spectrum see public education as effort of the government to institutionalize our young to prep them for factory or other menial jobs, and to make them obey authority and brain wash them to cultural "moral" standards.
The "sour economy" is not putting any pressure on cable companies. None.
I dunno... Quality of programming was bad enough that we disposed of the antenna ~4 years ago. Let me restate that: We turned down free television. If people don't want what is provided at no cost, how many more will decide they need that $n/month more than they need Desperate Housewives?
Most people today consider TV as essential as a cell phone or natural gas.
I won't debate our dependants on cell phones, but yay for electric heating elements.
And given the escapism angle, I'd guess most Americans would pay the cable bill with their last $50.
Ads and such made escapism at the TV quite difficult.
So, in all seriousness, now, aside from price - what need for OpenOffice?
I have little need for office suites. Text is sufficient for most documents I'm not sharing with anyone else. For people like myself, OpenOffice is overkill*. Why should I waste my employer's money (or my own, at home) on MS Office? Now that ODF is supported, all documents should interoperate just fine (theoretically).
*My 'Documents' folder contains a handful of old ODF files I can get rid of (including an essay I let a family member type at my machine), 2 that I'll keep (my resume, and a letter I am typing to my congresscritter), about 2 dozen PDFs I have downloaded, and a dozen text files.
There probably isn't one (but it wouldn't surprise me). More important, though, is the fact that we can't prove otherwise. Would you entrust your national security to software from a company in China?
I think the cross site ad thing has gone too far, but ads do pay for bandwidth, it's not really fair to surf sites like slashdot, that do a good job of keeping them to a minimum, and skip the ads.
I just don't want the javascript, so I allow images past the filter.
...he makes an update of NoScript to version 1.9.2...
I don't know how it happened, but I am glad I missed any updates after 1.9.1.91. I think I'll stick with that for the time being, if I don't remove NoScript completely.

Personally, I can't think of anybody I know IRL that visits a site hosted outside the US.
Good thing I know a few such people. Shouldn't be too hard to borrow one at invasion time. Easier than looting WalMart's stock, anyways.
Sadly, nobody really gives a shit about Linux binary compatibility.
BSD does.
Depends what you mean by efficient. UClibc is more efficient in space, but less efficient in size.
Could you define what you mean by 'space' ?
Glibc compatibility?
Since this is primarily over embedded systems, I assume it will also be more efficient?

TV is a big time suck and mind poison.
I agree. TV, work, school, meals, bathroom breaks, and sleep too often get in the way of Slashdot.
Incidentally, I don't read books very often because even Slashdot takes a back seat to "one more page".

Which version of ODF? 1.0, 1.1, or 1.2?
I am assuming 1.0 because that is the officially sanctioned standard.
The format OpenOffice uses can be adjusted in Tools>>Options>>Load/Save>>General

The government argues that the project and Open Standards would not impact the society and economy.
No NSA backdoors, a patriotic/nationalistic project, no licence fees (or less piracy, at least), software that wasn't originally created in America...
Yep, absolutely no impact on society or the economy.
Youtube's value is in the long tail.
And it's losing money at the rate of one Library of Congress. ($half-billion a year)

People generally don't drink enough water anyways.
WHOOSH as in the sound makes when water pours in?
That was almost coherent...
(which is btw. the most obnoxious plug-in I currently have installed; re: updates...)
Set noscript.firstRunRedirection to False and it won't open the homepage after every update.
