perhaps I am misunderstanding something, but it is possible to provide details of how much such a program costs, the number of participants, etc without divulging the names and locations of said participants.
That is typical. No reason to waste vertical space that shows little useful data. I would prefer that they zoom in on the area of interest anyway. As long as the scale is consistant, ie the y-values dont go 1000, 1100, 1500, 2000, 3000, 3100, 3200, 4000 to distort disparities. This is pretty much standard practice.
Well the good news is those cars that fail to alert other cars via this new system will be more likely to be involved in an accident and therefore need to be replaced by another car. This accelerates the process of removing non-compliant cars

Sums up my feelings very nicely. Sure the GUI is good for some things, but after hours it leaves me lacking in understanding, since I have been essentially reacting to my computer instead of telling it when I want it to do.
So far I've only seen it in the wild three times: Photosynth, the Feynmann Lectures (posted by MS...), and some random video at MSNBC or similar news site.
just wanted to add my number-one reason for having a vested interest in Silverlight, NetFlix. It is required for any of their streaming services.
I agree rice milk is better, but I am hooked on the soy for now.
feminizing men's bodies? What kind of man are you? I am pretty sure I am manly enough that no mere bean will make me grow breasts. In all seriousness, I lived on soy products from tofu to soymilk all thru college and I never became feminized. I would like to see a citation there.
As for organic cow juice, I could possibly get that down. Maybe I will try it sometime. Thanks for the reply!
when I drink milk it slows me down and tastes absolutely disgusting, in my opinion. I am certainly not lactose-intolerant but moo juice just makes my stomach turn when I drink it. I can honestly say that quality soy milk is superior in every way. Even after pancakes and for dipping cookies. I know this sounds like sacrilege, but for me it is great.
Unfortunately, nothing can compare to quality ice cream. That is the real reason we should keep cow sweat in our diet.
I was told if you get a large, sealed tub, you can drop dirty clothes, soap, and water in before you road trip and after a certain amount of time the agitation inside the tub will scrub your clothes clean. I haven't tried this yet but once I get my old diesel rabbit running again maybe ill just leave the old shocks on there and try it out.
seconded. Ive done dual monitors on Ubuntu on far too many configurations to recount and have had nothing but blinding success in all cases. Cant comment on MS configurations since I don't bother with them anymore.
I have a family that is full of mechanics. Several of use regularly drive no less then four cars on any given day. I wonder if the police really have that many of these devices to deploy and monitor. I also regularly swap out cars since at any given time half of my land-fleet is broken down or not road worthy for some reason. Are they going to bug the cars of just about everyone I know just to follow me around? Just a thought...
I probably am a fanboi. I was unaware this was possible with Windows, what software is required?
In any case, no fiddling is required to get this to work. You do not even have to touch the keyboard once bluetooth-manager is installed. Works with every phone that I have tried without additional drivers.
this is exactly what I have done. I am using it now actually. You dont even need a real smartphone, I use a samsung impulse. You DO need to run ubuntu (10.4 works best) and have bluetooth on your netbook and phone. Then you just install bluetooth-manager and it is just a wizard away. I can even create a wifi hotspot to let my friends on. This works so well and I am now so dependent on it that I no longer have the choice to go back to windows(as if I EVER would) There is just nothing that compares to this on windows.
when I am in those situations I just wait for the customer to finish the cell phone conversation before I acknowledge his or her existence. It often confuses them and occasionally enrages them but lucky for me the manager was never around.
I could be out of the loop here since I only use cash, but unless your card specifically grants you a grace period, you will end up paying interest immediately upon charge.
One of my first coding assignments in high school involved writing our own calendar program and then using that system to print out bank statements. Our teacher liked to point out that our program had to convert a yearly interest rate into a daily one and appliy that to what was called the 'average daily balance.
Long story short, unless you pay the balance off immediately, you ended up paying interest, and the interest got large quite fast. As I said, I never use credit cards myself so I cannot say if this is really the case.
reminds me of my school's email login system. It is web-based and occasionally a little slow. This drives me crazy because I typically load the page, click on the login text box and immediately type my login-tab-password-enter. The problem occurs because when the page completes loading, it auto-tabs my typing cursor back to my login name. When in a hurry I have accidentally typed loginpassword into the login field and submitted this into the authentication system. Not only is my login password combo now in the machine's cache but it also is most likely in the server logs under (epicly) failed attempts.

the truly lulzy part of this, as far as I am concerned, is that by then I have already made the purchase. The ad is too late.

while in New York City, TomTom took me thru some economically questionable neighborhoods. It was a great way to experience some local culture!
did i mention the rabbit is diesel powered? 55 mpg ftw!

oh damn. you made me squirt beer out of my nose bonus points if anyone makes a porn reference to above said reaction

you need to set some defined boundaries of personhood and embryohood.

^--- these are my imaginary mod points. If I had real ones I would give those as well.
nah, that's all Johnny Snow
