This wouldn't be Microsoft's first date related blunder. Did anyone ever experience the excel date quirk? Apparently MS didn't realise 1900 wasn't a leap year. A by product of this is that your dates gain 4 years if you open them on Mac Office. What about the Zune's effort with the 366th day of 2008?
Although I think this just requires a different marketing strategy, a mobile email device that can help me travel into the future? I'll take two please.
The filter is only in trial at the moment, and you cop an $11,000/day fine for linking to a blacklisted site, link to a site that links a blacklisted site or further recursion is probably ok. Perhaps not if you're linking purely for saying "Click here to visit a site which links to some blocked sites".
Apparently 4chan is one of the latest to hit the list.
Incorrect. The continent of North America includes Canada and Mexico. America is... well, America. Says so right in the name: The United States of America.
But America still isn't the name of your country, it is (as you point out) two continents. Your countries' name is the creatively inspired "United States of America". That is, there's a bunch of states on those continents that united, and hey, why don't we just make that the name.
Oprah scares me. If it doesn't go well for her, I can imagine her saying to the studio audience "Everybody reach under your seat, there you should find an AK-47. NOW LETS TAKE THIS FIGHT TO THESE PEOPLE!!"
Everyone would do it too, she's scary.
Well guess what this is a democracy (representative in most) and if you don't make yourself heard then it is your FAULT, not the politicians, nor the "clueless" voters who do vote and make themselves heard.
Some days I find it hard to believe that it is a democracy, doesn't seem to matter what the people on the whole think, or want, sometimes they just work their hardest to "adjust" what they think/want. This makes me think it's closer to a dictatorship, but with the advantage that we can pick between two dictators, therefore a Dictatorial Democracy.
Besides, if you block BitTorrent in Australia, we will get around it, if you block it globally someone will come up with something else. In the meantime, it will make legitimate uses of bittorrent (world of warcraft patches spring to mind) interesting.
Oh, and voting is compulsory in Australia.
It was genuinely scary the first time I walked into a lift displaying a Windows 98 BSoD in a building I worked in. The doors on those lifts closed pretty quick too, meaning escape was impossible.
