In typical movie exaggeration, this one does triple duty as a director, taster and human-liaison. No way a mouse can do so many things at once - he has only four feet!
I can imagine an announcement some time in future, by a person in extreme denial:
"... This is not some agent provocateur or highly trained assassin we are discussing. Raistlin84 is a theoretical physicist who had hardly earned the distinction of his Ph.D. at the time of the incident..."
Way to go, Raistlin84! And if you see that person, tell him I said [noise error].
... I figure that the 'abstract' theory would be mostly suited for me...
He said that although the questions are harder, they vary very little across years so the students all just practice the question forms a lot beforehand, and regurgitate the method with minor changes during the exam.
Just to relate...
Here in tiny Singapore, most students practise on brain dumps. These practice questions are published in "Ten Year Series" textbooks. I think they're quite like "10 Real SATs" books in America.
Of course, the questions change every year, and the syllabus change every few years, so there's sometimes a mad scramble to get the latest books.
... can you first tell me the color of the small yellow square...
Interesting! I've never thought of this.

From TFA:
If customers fail to register their notebook within 21 days of purchase, they lose out, and if the initial sales receipt is lost then they will not be able to claim a replacement notebook. If at any point a customer fails to take an upgrade, then they will also be ineligible for any future laptops.

1. Use Jumbo Frames, period.
Are there any compatibility issues with Jumbo Frames?
The author makes the case that the failure of most media to properly portray how horrible torture actually is ...
The old Hong Kong movies 1980s rather accurately, brutally portray electrical torture in the movies (i.e. fully uncensored).
Here in Asia, we use 240V 50Hz household mains. Like everyone else, we do touch electricity by accident, occasionally.
I think Asians do have an idea of what electrical torture is.
The last I measured, the center hole's diameter was about 0.59 inches across.
I've tried. Neither 16X DVD nor 40X CD can fling any dust off. You'll need tissue and physical contact.
From TFV. The processing unit can do math. You only need to write these:
.... sin(y))
cos(z) * (w
w = 40
y = 10
z = 11
and say "Aiko, process math", and it will tell you the answer. Amazing!
The correct answer is 0.1746. I can't see the whole formula. Anyone can guess it?
Obviously you need one to direct the action ...

It is revolutionary. It has:
It is so superior, it has been specially highlighted by Richard Frenkel, Head of System Development at Bell Laboratories, as "a triumph".
How about it?

Well, I don't mind if they're female... If I can get one, I'd be a Slashdot reader with a girlfriend.
(I can see the comeback now - all other readers have multiple girlfriends!)
Frankly, when it comes down to it, the sound quality matters more than the video.
No, no, you have very high standards, just in a different way.
If someone gives you a video camera, you'd probably buy an external microphone.
