The source for SPICE was released in 1993. It's also packaged as part of gEDA. I'm not sure why you think that this would be useful to add to the shell, but to each their own...
We have 2 communist parties in Canada; "The Communist Party of Canada" and "The Communist Party of Canada (Marxist-Lenninist)".
We now have a Neorhino party to replace the Rhino party. Unfortunately they don't get as much press as the original Rhino party. It's still good to have a party that is designed to poke fun at the whole political process.
I miss the Natural Law Party. Those guys were a hoot, especially since they were being completely serious while their policies were completely ridiculous. For example, their defense policy was to use meditation to create a peace bubble surrounding Canada. Great stuff.
Just because they acted as a whistle blower in leaking a sensitive document, that does not mean that they would stoop to circumventing the DRM measures of this copyrighted material. Seriously, that would violate the DMCA. That's getting into serious business. They might get sued!
The plane stayed aloft for 87 minutes, performing test maneuvers as well as completing a successful takeoff and landing.
Gosh, that is novel. So first it flies for 87 minutes, does several maneuvers and THEN even manages a successful takeoff. Didn't see that one coming. I thought it had crashed on takeoff, but no.
The expression "as well as" does not imply when this successful take off occurred within those 87 minutes. Reading between the lines as you stated and applying a touch of logic would imply that the take off was the first thing to happen within the time mentioned. Also, just because an airplane is capable of powered flight, does not necessarily make it capable of an unassisted take off. If only 87 minutes of powered flight was mentioned, the plane could have been dropped from a balloon and crashed into a barn at the end of its flight. If you are going to be pedantic, at least be thorough.
That would be a stopped watch. The frequency that a slow watch would be exactly correct would depend on how slow it is. If just slightly slow you could be waiting for eons.
Actually, you are an antenna. Playing with a spectrum analyzer in university which had an FM demodulator plug in, the best reception that I was able to get using what I had available was a bare piece of wire gripped in my hand. Granted a real antenna would almost certainly be better, but I was a much better antenna than paper clips and other metallic sundries.
My 8086 had a turbo button too. Woo Hoo! 8 MHz here I come. Most games would become much harder in Turbo as all timing was done off the assumed 4.77 MHz core clock frequency.
... and are still living on a small planet orbiting Tau Ceti, and hence copyright still applies. I have to assume that the government of Mexico has some sort of power of attorney in order to be attempting to collect against these copyrights. It's not like they could possibly be attempting to twist this situation to their advantage. They are governed by a duly elected body which as we all know is proof against corruption.
A greenhouse is a more efficient way of heating the air than without. Dont forget that a large portion of solar energy is reflected back off into space. So instead of the greenhouse effect from pollution, we'll just do it the 'natural' way.
The natural way? Using a giant frikken machine is the natural way? Maybe now I can start breeding a giant robot army!

List of Canadian Federal Political Parties
The bombing of Dresden has never been legally classified as a war crime.
The legal classification is pretty much irrelevant, ...
Umm, so when discussing crime, which is a matter of law, legal classification is irrelevant? I think you lost me ... or trolled me.
It's hard not to be arrogant when you are purrfect.

You should be sorry. Oatmeal spit takes make for one nasty keyboard.
I was always taught to drive so that I can stop within the distance I can see ... but to be honest I thought I was alone.
You thought you were alone? You must not be able to see very far at all.
She smells sheep smells by the sheep store.
... and so the only reason we'd be there is either to talk to aliens or to get a rare material.
If there's one thing I learned from Star Trek and Captain Kirk, it's that there are better things than talking to be done with aliens.
If he was a programmer, his method would have just as likely been: 7 +7 +7 +7 +7 +7 +7 +7 +7 +7 +7 +7 +7 =91

I'm sorry DAVE. I can't allow you to launch that.
Well slashdot is fairly personalized. You can make your own opinion about our collective ignorance.
Do you have any idea how hard it is to modulate a pulsar?
Livertarians are likely to consider "better" to be ...
... with onions.
And Bob is making organic peanut butter from peanuts grown in his own backyard. He's obviously a hippie.
You forgot Steve and Woody.

DEFCON-5 is an economic disaster then? No fear mongering to drive the economy.
Be careful. There are gnomes about.
I thought the obvious scam was the Government.
