i've never owned a Fiat, but know some people who did. One of them complained that his windows would open all of themselves every now and then (when driving on a highway in winter). Another had Alfa Romeo (same concern I believe) which almost always blew it's headlights when you turned then on. So indeed, crappy electrical wiring...
Maybe you can use the smoke that's coming from your computer right now as a screen for looking at the Venus transit. You won't be using that for a while I guess.
Well, riding a bicylce at nigth without lights. And the police in Amsterdam are checking this like mad. On the other hand, since last week people smuggling up to three kilograms of coke into the country just get sent away. They don't get arrested, they will just be sent away. Amazing country, this! It's just that we don't have enough prison cells, so over here it's better to smuggle large amounts of drugs than to ride a bike without lights. ** blink, blink **
What I did with several comets and meteors that I own, is catch them with an ACME comet catcher (tm). It's basically a net, not unlike the ones used for catching that ever illusive roadrunner.
In my country (the Netherlands) most people think that the world revolves around football (that is soccer). So let's all keep this quiet, and not let all those soccer fans know that in reality the whole universe now seems to revolve around, and is shaped like, a football...
No just make a nagging compiler. Let it put up a nag screen with each statement it compiles, showing the statement and asking the programmer if it's allright to compile this and if it's not violating one or more IP's (Yes/No/Abort).:)
Yep I can, or at least could. When I was a kid I used to do this all the time in small rowing boats. And you don't actually make circular or elliptical movements, but something resembling an 'infinity' symbol (fgures eight). That is with your hands; the blade of the oar starts making an elliptical form through this, with the blade pressing against the water when you move 'along' the eight and slicing through the water when you turn the 'corners' of your figure eight. Sorry for the rather vague description, but it's the best I can come up with at the moment
Wait till they converted Babages' difference engine to a webserver. There aint no way you're gonna toast that much copper. See it serve page after page: *grind*, *grind*, *grind* *ping!*.
Exploiting such quantum weirdness, a quantum computer would be able to perform many computations at once, making it vastly more powerful than a conventional computer. I'm sure the masters of code bloat will hog up such a computer as fast as you can say 'Schrodinger'. The main advantage of doing multiple computations at once will be that while your quantum computer BSOD's, Clippy will come walking right through that asking if you need help.

Oooh, my! Where will this end? Lego for the still unborn babies?

Driving around on a hot summer day in your Fiat, with your Windows wide open......
They probably all had a lobbybotomie.... ** ka-ching **

wow, an icecream machine with an amplifier that goes up to eleven
Imagine that: stepping out of that car in your brand spanking new spandex Tron suite. The girls would be over you like bees on honey...!
Your GF is reading a magazine while you ejaculate? You must be doing something wrong there!

I owned that ice! Who took it????
And the problem with that would be....? Does the US have a monopoly on spying or something?

Could be worse: think of goatse and tubgirl in 3D ** shudder **
A computer in my clothes.. Talk about a dress code!
done a controlled experiment that offers more proof that this phenomena is real...
Yep, the experiment showed **Pepsi, the choice of a new generation ** that everybody was quite thirsty afterwards...
I'm glad it's a MBA and not a MCSE 8)
How do you know Microsoft is automagically updating your system? I think the fact that it reboots ten times in a row is quite a giveaway...
...in which Raymond said that if there was infringing code in the Linux kernel, "our community wants no part of it and will remove it.
I don't think that SCO wants those lines removed, because their whole business plan now seems based on those lines being in there.

In normal circumstances you can pass water, but with anti-water.... ** his mind boggles **
