You would think.
The only SSD I'm running is on my computer at home and my house is sufficiently UPS'd. It's always cool when the power goes out at my apartments but all my electronics keep going. I just wish there was a battery on that Time Warner box outside my door.
I'm curious to see how bitcoin holds up. If it sticks around, it would be neat to see a long-term comparison between bitcoin, various fiat currencies, and hard commodities.
Is it just me, or does anyone else immediately think of that one episode of Star Trek (The Inner Light) every time we start talking about global warming. We should just start work on our space probe and brush up on our Ressikan flute skills; There's nothing we can do about the sun going nova.
Back when everyone had 56k, our school had a full T1. Every computer in the lab had napster installed. We would stay late every day downloading and burning. We actually started a computer club just to make it seem legit (we also LAN partied starcraft with a single cd). Our IT guy at the time was kinda my mentor. While the other kids were downloading music, he was teaching my how to download movies from FTP servers on irc trackers. You might have to wait in queue for the FTP server, but once it was your turn, you'd DL an entire movie in minutes. Those were the good 'ol days.
If I've read right, this isn't the ISP detecting BT traffic or anything. The MAFIAA still has to find your IP and issue the alert. So as long as I'm keeping trackers proxied, using DHT, and blacklisting the copyright goons, does that mean no strikes?
I know most of you nerds will just laugh at my anecdotal evidence and dismiss anything that wasn't synthesized and studied in a lab environment as quackery. That said, I have a hobby of experimenting with various herbs and supplements until I find combos that work for me (and the ones that nearly kill me). The combo of echinacea, C, and zinc has always worked for me, as well as several friends and family. I don't take these as daily supplements, only when I start to feel sick or know I've been exposed. I know that especially with echinacea, you build a tolerance that defeats the purpose of kickstarting your immune system before it realizes it needs to be in high gear. I usually take something along the order of 50mg zinc once a day, 400mg echinacea throughout the day (4-5 times), and a megadose of 1000mg of C per day. I know the studies on these supplements are debatable, but it's always worked for me. I haven't had a flu shot in 20 years and I've had 1 mild case of the flu since then, and one fairly severe. The severe one was some sort of strange deadly illness I caught from a stray cat. I'm sure it would have destroyed lesser men, but I managed to defeat it and keep it from turning into a pandemic. That's a whole-nother story.
Have you ever read how EPA estimates are done? You put a car on a dyno and run it through some fanciful schedule for what a "trip" should consist of. Too many hills, some extra wind, or a heavy foot will heavily skew real-world numbers. If your car gets 50mpg, what sane person would pump one gallon of gas and set out across the desert for the next gas station, 50 miles away. I get the iPhone joke, but if you're trying to max the car's economy, you very well could be driving it the wrong way.
How can we stand idly by and allow OpenOffice to steal from Microsoft to the tune of $21M per day? I demand the American government put a stop to this grave injustice immediately.
I'm sure the subsidies microsoft paid to have Win8 installed on that laptop actually make it cheaper overall than buying a laptop without an os. If you were thinking of moving to a linux distro, just wipe the damn thing.

They're just being polite, eh.
Save up enough CRTs for a decent capacitor bank. You're well on your way to being a supervillian.

So scientists are wiring together rodent brains to create a supercomputer? Maybe my neighbor isn't schizophrenic after all.

What more can they actually do?
Redirect to crappy "educational" videos and throttle your connection. Haven't you been paying attention.
I'm sure there are plenty out there trying to force a false positive right now.
Why would be want to study dirty, smelly foreigners? We already know their "human condition" is unbathed.

I think it's about time I cash in on that "fashioning materials into tangible items" patent I purchased from The Dutch East India Company.
Because we're all pretty sure that we can drink cat milk, the question lies in the best method to milk a cat.
Have they tried squeezing them? I'm imagining something resembling a car wash, but with giant foam cow squeezers instead of brushes.
and a large enough wristband to fit around my meaty paw
Let's hurry up and evolve to live off salt water. Go forth, and have sex with sweaty people.

How can we ever trust the legitimacy of the Mouse Olympics results if we don't tests the medalists for doping?
do RTs count? Now I just need to follow every funny tweet with #SendWill$5 and I'll be rich in no time.
Jus glue some crysals to ur iPhone. Saboski crystal are cheaper than diamonds, but they're diamonds.
you forgot "assimilate"

OMG! We're the other universe!
