Probably because it needs a layer of shielding to minimize interference on the data lines. And a layer of insulation to protect the whole thing. Also, there are generally about 4 conductors inside that cable. There's only so thin you can make a data cable and ensure a reliable signal.
Hmm... could it possibly just be an old photo, seeing as there are constuction portables in the northeast corner and a now-nonexistant building in the south of the lot?
So even though the vast majority of students on UC campuses carry iPods (thanks to Apple's extensive student discounts on them, including giving them away free with purchase of a powerbook), the UC system has selected a download system incompatible with iPod.
No, what I meant was that they created a scene specifically for the trailer that was never meant for the film. In the teaer, Mr. Incredible is trying to squeeze into his new red suit, when in the film that suit wasn't made for him until he'd already lost the weight.
On Monsters Inc. they created the whole Upper Magnolia/Outer Mongolia argument scene for the teaser. Not to mention the Harry Potter charades thing. It's a neat trick. I really hate when the trailer shows half the good moments from the film.
Well, bear in mind that Pixar frequently uses footage in teaser trailers that's not in the actual movie. For example, the original Monsters, Inc. teaser was created entirely for the teaser. I sort of suspect that the original teaser for The Incredibles is the same, although I'm not seeing the film until tonight.
Cars is being directed by John Lasseter, who I have a lot of faith in. He was the director on both Toy Stories and on Bug's Life, so he definitely knows what he's doing.
And as for "dad gum," that's pretty much Larry the Cable Guy's dialog in everything:)
Sure. The original Toy Story was under a different deal. Then came Bug's Life, Monsters Inc, Finding Nemo, and now The Incredibles and Cars to finish off a 5-picture deal signed after Toy Story. Through some contractual madness, Disney discovered that they didn't have to count Toy Story 2 towards the count, since apparently some clause said that in effect sequels don't count.
Oh, I dunno. It looks like one of the core worlds where Something Horrible has happened prior to the arrival of Serenity. If you notice, all of the burned corpses are lying in fairly normal places (on the stairway next to a briefcase-like object, etc.) as if they died really suddenly. That seems like kind of a minor plot spoiler if nothing else.
I like the sound of it. One of my biggest complaints about Netflix was that you couldn't just say "Oh man, I really want to see !" and go get it to watch that night. Admittedly, their shipping service is fast, but it's still not the same when you have to wait a day or two to get it. But if I could download it (or at least get it streaming) instantly or within a couple of hours, that'd be pretty darn cool:)
I believe it's also used for more localized alerts like "Tornadoes are coming" and "Whoops, the chemical plant up the street just started leaking toxic gas."
You probably just need a better host. I've used superwebhost.com and deru.net in the past, both of whom have been perfectly willing to install modules, etc. at my request. And both of them were very good about notifying me of any server changes. Nowadays I run a leased server at a hosting facility, so I can do it myself. That's way better, o' course:)
The university I work for just bought a couple of Panasonic DLP projectors that support image blending. Big deal. You can do this with off-the-shelf components, so I'm not sure why it's such a big deal.
Hank: Uh, hi, Homer. What can I do for you? Homer: Sir, I need to know where I can get some business hammocks.
Hank: Hammocks? My goodness, what an idea. Why didn't I think of that?
Hammocks! Homer, there's four places. There's the Hammock Hut,
that's on third. Homer: Uh-huh.
Hank: There's Hammocks-R-Us, that's on third too. You got
Put-Your-Butt-There? Homer: Mm-Hmm.
Hank: That's on third. Swing Low, Sweet Chariot... Matter of fact,
they're all in the same complex; it's the hammock complex on
third. Homer: Oh, the hammock district.
Hank: That's right.

Well, once he's up there they spring the "Oh, you want a RETURN trip? That's going to be $50 million." trick on him :)

Also kills Firefox on Tiger with QT7.
Because that sounds awful?
Nope... I'm a huge fan of both cancelled Bryan Fuller shows... Wonderfalls and Dead Like Me :)

Figures.
This story is about Walt Disney World in Florida. Disneyland, the park in California, still uses good old fashioned paper tickets.
Actually, it's pronounced frahn-ken-steen.
The phantom was at E3 2004 as well, with a massive booth. I even covered it briefly here

Actually, since Keyhole can overlay street names on the actual streets and trace them with handy lines, it kind of is :)

Oh god, another person trolling their referral link around /.

I did radio ratings for Arbitron recently, and they used logbooks still.
Martin: "How much is your penny candy?" :)
Apu: "Surprisingly expensive."

I just installed over it, and it worked fine.

Quiet, he's on a roll! :)
