Internet speed is expected to improve once a new 17,000 km underwater fiber optic cable linking southern and East Africa to other networks becomes operational
I thought this "contest" measured the speed of an internal data transfer within SA.
... he then proceeded to shoot flames from his eyes in order to warm a cup of coffee while the small, winglike appendages growing from the sides of his neck flapped excitedly.
Plus there are situations where being able to text "help, I'm being held hostage" is a more viable option than making a voice call to say "help, I'm being held hostage"
If you find yourself in an emergency situation, please add "911 Emergency Response" as a friend, then write a simple wall posting describing the nature of your emergency. Help will be dispatched immediately.

The flight crew on your average longhaul flight do not give a flying fuck what you eat, whether you eat, or how much untouched food you leave on your tray. They are not logging everybody's mealtime performance on some secret touchscreen in the forward galley.
This thing does one thing the Segway can't: it folds into a shoulder bag and weighs 22lbs. That means I can bring it upstairs into the office once I get to work, or hell even bring it onboard a commercial airliner as unchecked baggage.
In my opinion, if the longevity could be extended to somewhere north of 2500 charges it'd be a pretty compelling gadget even at $5,000.
The problem with protest rallies is that they are primarily attended by brainwashed slogan-chanting fools with absolutely no ability to grasp the nuances of the topic at hand.
Well that depends - if it's a cool indy artist I'm willing to pay more for both the product itself and the shipping. If it's mainstream label music, I generally won't bother unless the CD itself is pretty darned cheap and the shipping is free.

That will happen just as soon as the "right thing" becomes highly profitable for those doing the bribing.
So, never.

I believe GP is referring to the Elbonian federal government.

Kensington security locks are for windows machines. Macs are just inherently secure

It was kinda fun to live in that age when people were gullible enough to accept ANYTHING that popped up on screen.
About 80% of my friends/family still appear to live in that age.
That was Sears. Radio Shack was where you programmed the TRS-80 in the endless penis loop.
Your recursion inspires me.

One would hope these motherboards would come with a BIOS option to erase the onboard flash.

So did the Teletubbies and Barney the Dinosaur. But then kids shows tend to be held to a different standard when it comes to drama and conflict.

YMMV
I'd rather buy music on physical CDs, rip it to my hard drive, and then load and play it on the device(s) of my choosing.
But then I'm old-school that way.
I believe this is known as the "Mugabe Strategy." Repeat every 1-2 weeks as necessary.
Blacklist? I can understand your being upset, but refusing any packets routed through AT&T? Dude you are hardcore!

Probably because this ridge is at or near the top of the antarctic dome, it isn't subject to katabatic winds.
no light pollution either.
Well, except for those several months of the year when you have to contend with 24/7 light pollution emanating from Sol.
