The tax is more like 3% which, in this case means $30. They actually bet on people like you who don't know what the actual charge is to make all their purchases with a card.
And here, ladies and gents, we have our finalist - an enslaved 'it' who is unable to have children, all at the same time! Here's your Darwin's prize. So glad the buck stops with you. Now, as someone said before you, I shall bugger off to my friendly local garage and have them check out the primary cylinder in my jag. Of course they shall immediately know that I'm, in fact, not referring to cylinder 1 on bank A but shall proceed to have a look at the braking system. And I shall unplug all my IDE drives immediately and let them decide amongst themselves which one shall be primary primary and which one primary secondary. Perhaps they can ask you to come up with a suitable solution? CD is alone on the secondary primary so no worries there.
What a major fail. Data centres produce no visible light in sattelite imagery. Neither do banks, mines, crops (agriculture in general), I suspect larg portions of saudi oil-filled dessert would also be unlit and VERY few factories working 3 shifts have glass roofs. Large portions of german autobahn is unlit. Large portions of belgian is.
Some countries chose to fight light pollution. California was amongst the first to start looking into it. Based on this "research" California would also by lying about their GDP.
Someone needs to review this PhD thesis.
Can someone please downgrade this whole article back to the firehose somehow?
I was wondering the same thing but came up with an explanation that both are correct; speeded is even correcter but sped up is a modern take on it. So both equally correct.
It seems to me you confused yourself there. And that's exactly why you are an anonymous coward. So to recap - this is a good thing because it enables streamlining if tedious paperwork.
Unlike liberal liberals I see nothing wrong in this. In fact I think it's great.
In switzerland you notify your local community office that you moved in and everyone gets notified of the change (including your bank). Same when you leave. Everyone who cares knows you left and your new place of abode. If you can do other things with it like make people pay their parking tickets or notify next of kin of some mishap then great.
When internet was an interconnection of academic networks and you had all sorts of interesting and useful stuff on various servers for us students to research. You could find a "howto" on installing your very own private unix server at home. Now that is has been completely commercialised you find things like this; people getting killed by uneducated individuals fascinated by all the information thrown at them. Can we go back to the way things were, now, please?
Now we wait for diplomats to provide a swift and loud apology just like they switfly and loudly rushed to accuse them of having created a sonic weapon to attack their staff.
Oh btw how efficiently does ANY sort of sound travel through bullet-proof glass that they have on pretty much all embassies?

The article never showed the actual screw, I was hoping I'd see a screw...
So THEY are the customers, OK. And only of CebturyLink, noone else? Shouldn't they be customers of all providers, or at least as many as possible?
"CONSUMERS"????
I thiught 911 was emergency service number for those in immediate need of assistance? What "customers"?

Und zen vorld!
Someone could come out the bush and argue that minions are slaves, too! Albeit voluntary ones..nevertheless, slaves all the same.
LISP from now on, only.
So what about people who are unable to have children, will they get offended by references to 'parent'?
This has gotten out of hand, definitely.
Exactly. Or! Maybe they should re-think their renumeration? Just a thought.
What, you forgot?
Oh it's a "working paper", sorry. Someone chasing after published titles numbers, perhaps?

Is slashdot becoming such a bore that stories about clandestine public transportation fares is all we have to read about?
Now what?
