Actually it seems they check the Referer: HTTP header, so if you follow a link from Google it will show the answers, but if you enter the URL directly they're hidden (just tested this on Chrome, Opera and Firefox).
If you want more details just watch those reviews I linked to, it will quickly start to make sense once you get used to the guy's voice... or alternatively you can probably find hundreds of written reviews which discuss these technicalities.
But why am I even defending the crappiness of the Star Wars prequels?
It's not just Jar Jar and the wooden acting, it's the complete and utter lack of proper storytelling and cinematography, caused by a director obsessed with green-screens and special effects. Note that from the old movies only A New Hope was directed and written solely by George Lucas (though allegedly his former wife also had a big influence as editor).
Watch the RedLetterMedia reviews for a detailed and hilarious analysis of all three movies.
It also means that you can see the real disks that make up the mirror and so monitor it with the smart tools.
With 3ware RAID controllers this is already possible, you just have to specify the magic device/dev/twa0 (for the first controller) and use the smartd/smartctl option "-d 3ware,0", where 0 specifies the disk number. I assume other controllers have something similar.
But yeah, I also prefer software RAID, especially when using ZFS;-)
I use the f and t motion commands all the time since discovering them. For example, ct) will remove all text from the current cursor position up to the next ), and switch to insert mode. This is incredibly useful for replacing arguments in function calls, or attributes in HTML tags.
Some other nice stuff I discovered:
:set wildmenu, shows all possible completions in a menu above the command line when pressing Tab
:set scrolloff=5, automatically keeps 5 lines visible when moving the cursor to the top/bottom
o / O, starts a new line in insert mode below/above the current line
C-e / C-y, scrolls the buffer without moving the cursor
runtime macros/matchit.vim, extends the % command to match more stuff, like HTML tags
the vimdiff shell command, which starts Vim in its awesome diff mode. use the:diffget and:diffput commands to merge changes
There's also the standard mappings Ctrl-[, which does exactly the same as Escape, and Ctrl-C, which differs slightly (some autocommands won't be called) but works perfectly fine for me in most cases.
Your comment is typically elitest, and damnright wrong.
eh? he's just speaking the truth, Sid certainly has some serious bugs now and then. I also got bitten by a GRUB bug which made my system unbootable,
and with bigger transitions there's always some dependency breakage. but you just have to get accustomed to this things, and be careful when doing big upgrades. I still run Sid on my home machine and my personal server, but I would only recommend it if you already have experience with Debian.
Writing software by creating types is useful in certain places, but I have found that it tends to require more code to be written than is needed for most web applications. Umm... you know, there are other dynamically typed languages besides PHP...
It's also not always Microsoft's fault. I work in the NHS an in Primary Care (GP surgeries amongst others), many places are under strict orders to block the upgrade because clinical software has been written in such a way that it works only with IE6. And there is also the issue that vital software hasn't passed conformence testing with the new version, yet.
Wait a minute... clinical software written for IE6? It already scares me when I hear about critical stuff running on Windows, but this is absolutely horrible! Please tell me at least the backend runs on something more trustworthy...
Well, first, you do realize that most of the.NET framework is just a wrapper around the Win32 API? And second, Microsoft itself still hasn't written any big application in.NET, although they initially said Vista would be rewritten almost entirely in it (i.e., at least the userland).
Some applications that use it are slow, but others are very fast (e.g. XMMS). So I don't think it's the toolkit.
This may have something to do with the fact that XMMS uses the old GTK 1.2, which of course is a lot faster, because it depends on fewer libraries, and also doesn't use anti-aliasing.

Did you ever notice that most mammals have fur?

using vi or emacs...
Which of course is for people who lack time or ability or whatever to use ed.
You missed the point where Android doesn't have a monopolistic app store, so you're free to get this spyware through other legal channels.
Actually it's your problem with Ubuntu ;-)

Ah... that is silly indeed. But thanks for your answer!
Why do people keep fighting the Robocopy, I'll never know.
It does have some silly limitations, for example you can't just copy one single file, it only takes directories as arguments.
I hate to break the news to you, but Macs can now run Windows too.
No. It's the sea monkeys, of course!
I sometimes use :diffthis, but usually I'm faster when just calling vimdiff ;)
But thanks for the VCSCommand link, that could be really useful indeed.

On a lighter note, it's probably just some massive coincidence that I keep looking at the clock at 9:11...
it's called a synchronicity

all I know is that RDP 5.1 (the one introduced in Windows XP) is a lot faster than 5.0 (the one in Windows 2000) because it added compression.
Actually, if you search for just "N", it's even the first result!
Have a look at Prototype, in particular Form.serialize().
Oh, and Ruby on Rails has helpers for this too, of course.
In case you haven't seen it yet, check this out. It's also rather long, but so hilarious you'll not want to stop reading.
