Who cares? Unless you're subject to German purity laws, experimenting with unusual ingredients is one of the joys of brewing. The world would be a much more boring place without Kriek, Framboise, etc.
Now, would *I* drink a bacon-flavoured beer? Probably not. But I'm sure some would.
Then all it takes is to get a copy of the key, or to pick the lock.
Or just tamper with the cords.
Again, the point is to make it *hard*, not impossible. If "impossible" is your goal, you're fucked, plain and simple.
I'm sure we've all seen enough heist movies to know that this is almost always one of the simplest parts of a plan
Ah, yes, informing security decisions based on hollywood heist films... good plan. I'm sure, if they show it's easy to steal a key or pick a decent lock, it must be, right?
b) Some beer styles have little to no carbonation (heavy stouts, for example).

Beer Made Just for Dogs

· Score: 3, Interesting
I've never seen a dog beg for beer.
You haven't met many dogs. Animals, in general, *love* alcohol, and many dogs love beer.
Hell, a friend of my has a green-cheeked Conure that absolutely *loves* wine... you have to watch your glass while the little bugger is flying around, lest she climb in head-first.
Second how exactly do you call it beer at all.
In the same way you can call any non-alcoholic beer "beer".
Seeing as how that store is the only way to install third party applications on your phone (outside of hacks), then "controlling what you see on your phone" is EXACTLY what what is happening here./
What, did mobile Safari suddenly stop working at some point?
Bah. Simple solution: build a case where the connectors of the USB devices are mounted in a solid cover plate. The USB ports are then aligned with those connectors, and so that when the cover plate is installed, the connectors are installed in the ports, and the whole thing is covered by the plate, so that, externally, you just see a flat surface with the cables sticking out. The plate, itself, is physically locked in place. Want to replace the computer? Unlock and remove the cover plate, replace machine, and install cover plate on new machine. Want to replace the mouse? You replace mouse, keyboard, and cover plate, all in one shot.
Well, I count myself as professional, and one of the nicest features for me is that I can easily configure attributes for specific windows. I remember back in the 90's having to manually edit.fvwm2rc. Now, I can just put rules right-click title bar and pick "special window" or "special application" settings. My firefox always starts up on Desktop 2. My VirtualBox always on Desktop 6. My Konsole sessions on Desktop 1. My file manager on Desktop 5. My IM applications on Desktop 4. And so on...
So you like the window manager. Great. A window manager is not a desktop environment (Xmonad could do everything you describe quite trivially).
In the end all I want is something that places the programs somewhere on my screen.
Sounds to me like you should be using something like Xmonad. All it does is place programs on the screen, and it does it exceptionally well. And it also happens to have *fantastic* multi-monitor support.
Yeah... you know... I'm gonna have to call BS, here.
What *exactly* does KDE offer that a "professional" will find shaves *that* much time off their day-to-day lives?
Hell, the "professionals" I come across often want the exact *opposite* of KDE... things like xmonad, awesome, and so forth, are an attempt to get the DE the hell out of the way so we can just get on with our jobs, already.
My wife just spoke to one of her relatives in Canada. They asked if we still had police service or power in the US. They said the news in Canada frequently reported the US economy was so bad it literally crumbled, with all government services stopped.
Your wife's friend is either delusional or a complete idiot. Just a little insight from your friendly neighbourhood Canadian.
If they mean that Rhea's atmosphere is 1% or 1/100th as dense as Europa's then just say that.
They did say that. You're simply either a) unable to comprehend English, or b) so compelled to pedantry that said desire short-circuited the parts of your brain dedicated to the comprehension of the English language.
Yup, that's what I've been hearing - that the TSA is shutting down the naked people scanners today, presumably in order to deflate the number of people who opt-out of naked people scanning.
Actually, I strongly suspect it's because, let's face it, the scanners hurt overall passenger throughput, which would make a bad travel day absolutely horrendous.
Which, of course, is really quite ironic: during a period when you probably want real, functional security procedures the most (ie, when the most people are traveling), the TSA has to ratchet down their policies in order to handle the load...
Salmon otoliths were barcoded in the early 80's (I think) to distinguish between different hatcheries. Coding was achieved by varying the water temperature during development, thus affecting the rate of growth, and hence colour of the bone in bands. The code stayed with the fish for life.
Yeah, that's totally the same thing as actually tagging cells with microscopic pieces of silicon.
You might want to consider how this conversation started. Specifically, it was about the *genesis* of Linux and how that relates to Diaspora. Where Linux is today is utterly irrelevant to that conversation.
Linux "got popular" because *some* ( Windows still rules the market ) people wanted an alternative to Microsoft Windows.
What??
No.
Linux "got popular" because *some* people wanted an alternative to Minix. It didn't become a viable alternative to Windows until long after the project had started to take off amongst Unix aficionados.
But, hey, don't let me stop you from rewriting history...
Closures and delegates are different things: delegates are constructs that forward the invocation to another function, and closures are function objects that have some state of the program bound to them so as that it should not have to be passed explicitly to the function.
Nitpicking, I know, but I think it's in important distinction.
Slashdot Mirror
Why would they copy Apple in this area?
Because the carriers want it.
The carriers are doing the *exact same thing* with Android, too. The average Slashbot fandroid just doesn't like to admit it outright.
Now *that* is twisted and bizarre... and I'd totally try it. :)

In what way does remote viewing of a web-app via Safari constitute INSTALLING A THIRD PARTY APP?
The claim was that Apple is "controlling what you see on your phone".
I repeat: when did Mobile Safari stop working?
As an aside, why the *fuck* do you even need a god damned dedicated app for what amounts to a webzine?
Seeing as how that store is the only way to install third party applications on your phone (outside of hacks), then "controlling what you see on your phone" is EXACTLY what what is happening here. /

These are entirely solveable problems.

Again, what the hell does the *DE* do for you?
So far, it's looking more like the latter.
How about option c) punishing governments, around the world, for classifying documents to the point where no one trusts them anymore.
Just OOC, have you tried using freenx, instead? If the goal is to run a full DE over a low-bandwidth connection, NX is a *far FAR* superior solution.
In the end all I want is something that places the programs somewhere on my screen.

See Malilo's response. Your question is stupid. Your pedantry, doubly so.
100 times thinner compared to what?
The atmospheres of Europa or Ganymede.
If they mean that Rhea's atmosphere is 1% or 1/100th as dense as Europa's then just say that.
They did say that. You're simply either a) unable to comprehend English, or b) so compelled to pedantry that said desire short-circuited the parts of your brain dedicated to the comprehension of the English language.

Not that new... bullshit.
Give me good old C++ any day of the week.
ROFL... yeah... nothing more to be said, really...

You can't quote to refute a work.
Uhh... hell yes you can. That falls firmly under the journalism and scholarship fair use exemptions.
Where the fuck did you get this crazy idea?
Closures and delegates are different things: delegates are constructs that forward the invocation to another function, and closures are function objects that have some state of the program bound to them so as that it should not have to be passed explicitly to the function.
Nitpicking, I know, but I think it's in important distinction.
Nitpicking a little more:
*Anonymous* delegates *are* closures.
