But it would do away with the troublesome business of time zones and those damnable region codes, though it would be difficult to get a word in edgeways.
Just plump for a lead-infused towel. Sure, they're a bit heavy, and you need to be careful to only suck the right corner but it always comes in handy when the locals go nuts.
I don't think that your post is a Troll, but please recognize that there is more than one thing going on around the universe today.
Of course. I mean the Universe is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind- bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space.
I've been using BT to send files between computers, PDAs and mobile phones for some years now. It's slow (getting better, though), and sometimes a little cumbersome to get going because of pairing and the various manufacturers implementations but it's still easier than using samba over wi-fi and it's a damn sight quicker than IRDA was.
Unfortunately we're at the mercy of the manufacturers again; my SE phone worked without a hitch, which is more than I can say for my Motorola (who just can't seem to make a decent UI)
Any achievements that BSD managed to make were nullified by the BSD license, which allows corporations and coders alike to reap profits without reciprocating the goodwill of open-source.
Maybe the folk who adopt the BSD license just aren't in it for the fame. For some people the notion that your software is out there quietly doing what it was made to do without any fanfare is appealing.
Certainly one positive aspect of a centralised (read: highly regimented) development process is that a small group of developers are able to ensure that everything is done the Right Way, however you want to define that; you don't have hundreds of coders producing code that works, but not necessarily in the same way.
GP was referring to tacking on legislation to an unrelated bill, i.e. patent legislation on an agricultural bill. It's my understanding that this is sometimes used in the US to block a bill by means of appending something that no fool will vote in.
Why isn't this illegal - adding unrelated legislation to a ? Is there anywhere in the world why this practice is not permitted, or better yet, prosecuted?
I never heard of it happening here in the UK, as far as I knew only the US did. Shows how little I knew.
This goes beyond local or state legislation; if your government hasn't codified or set precedent for the right of it's citizens to travel without being tracked invisibly then it's a cause for concern for all of you.
Seriously! How many of us learned assembly with a 68k? How many are in service today.
It's like the Mini/Beetle/Model T of the chip world: cheap, simple and with a practically cosmopolitan distribution.
If you buy software from a company X and it's closed source, how can you reasonably be expected to know there's something belonging to company Y in there? If I release a binary with someone else's code in it someone might notice if they bother to disassemble it (IANAP btw). This presupposes that the have a reason to go looking.
On the other hand if I make the source available to anyone then it's a lot more likely that someone will notice.
Yeah, and you lost poor Jacqui her job. Still, she was on the fiddle and had to go, would you mind seeing to the rest of them too? You can have all the pr0n you want.
There're enough unwarranted [cite] tags on wikipedia to cover the rest of the 'net twice over. It's just not the sort of pedantry that people come to slashdot for. [citation needed]

This way we get to keep their stuff, if you're going to raze you might as well pillage!

Or is just hot air?
Every Chelsea player knows that the most important skill is knowing when and how to fall.
There, that should cover just about every nationality besides English.
No, the most important skill is to get to the penalty box then back into the player behind you then fall over.
I'd say "Hello, Waff", but he'd be more discrete out among the Powindah.
It was disappointing because it didn't live up to what it might have been if they hadn't insisted on those outrageous (so I'm told) license fees.

The glass is merely twice its required capacity.
One word: Parody.
A better word: Cover.
Just give me a shout when I can have a watch like Wu's.

This makes me wish for an "-1 Over-played, Over-rated tripe of a song" mod point.
They told us to keep an eye on the toaster. Did you know burnt toast leads to the fire brigade, and that leads to a £900 call-out charge. Oh noes!
Nanostructures? check. Self-assembly? check. Later, Nature uses foams for low weight, high strength stuff. News at 11.

You liked IV? Seriously? Whales and Nuclear Wessels? Still, you were spot on about X, so you can't be all bad.
