Sometimes the destination affects the journey. That's what made the difference when I watched the Perfect Storm (only a week back, didn't know anything about the plot before, though I had seen the huge wave scene before.). If I had already know that it really was a perfect storm, then certainly my view of the movie would have changed, and that drastically. In fact, I was feeling increasingly pissed off as the movie progressed, because I felt that there's going to be nothing different about this movie, that the crew would survive after around (movie time) an hour of harrowing experiences.
Using Instant? That happens occasionally with me on Chrome/Chromium. Typing something, I see the link I want in the awesome bar suggestions, but before I can select the link, the search happens. Bloody annoying.
Agreed, it does need polish,but not the horror that Foxit inflicts on us.. But one of Evince's features (open a copy), is incredibly useful when reading text books or long journal articles. Handy enough for me to keep both it and one other PDF viewer (supporting tabs),like Chrome or Foxit around.
Maybe the Buzz people are separate from those in his circles, and those who have him in his circles. I'm sure the two are distinct. And I know we can hide the Buzz tab (already hidden when I started using G+). P'haps he forgot.
Who said anything about truth? You don't even have to use your own name. What Google is doing here is this:
a) Way before Google+, Google allowed you to create a Profile, and mark it as Public or Private.
b) Private profiles couldn't be seen, and didn't show up in search results. (I had one.)
c) It was as if the Private profiles didn't exist at all, except to their owners.
d) Google sees this as a waste, and decides to delete this waste of space. Unless, of course, you chose to use the profile and make it visible to others.
I don't see what this has to do with Privacy. Google is deleting the private profiles, not making them public. If you want to Google-bash, I saw an article about bugs in Google+ somewhere today. Do use that.:)
Adobe's PDF sucks. I use either:
a) Google Quick View (my favourite),
b) Chrome's built-in PDF viewer (which is fast, and doesn't crash often, and doesn't hang everything while the PDF is being downloaded.), or
c) Foxit's plugin (very rarely),
depending on the browser and OS being used. But I tried it out, and though the rendering was horrible (Chromium daily on Natty), it didn't seem to hang or ask anything on being closed. The slide-out sidebar was neat, but the open file button didn't do anything.
The last question is about decreasing the total entropy in the universe. Upon obtaining the answer, Multivac found no one to present the answer to, and decided to create an universe, with human beings in it, to whom it could give the answer.Hence, "Let there be light..."
He's 52. Even 40-somethings find it difficult to land a new job, regardless of how they left the previous one. Obviously, he isn't bothered about getting another job.
Simply the fact that the teller in question was (and probably still is) a female. But then again, does the fact that the robber in question is a man add anything to the story? What if it had been a man? He has already been caught, his name is given, so why state "a 59-year-old man..."? Why not just "a 59-year-old human being"?
What about this comment on the original/. post:
D0 has done this same sort of analysis, and they do not see this bump. But, their background modeling procedure involves reweighting the expected distributions (from Monte Carlo) in delta R between the jets (sort of an angular separation between the jets), which is a variable that is strongly correlated with the dijet mass. That is, their background model would be expected to have a strong tendency to fill in a bump like this. Now, which model is more correct is open to question, but it is certainly true that whether or not this bump turns out to be from real new physics (unlikely, in my professional opinion), their procedure is almost guaranteed not to find it.
Neither would my friends. But perhaps my Mum, some of my aunts, etc.. And I'm not in the US either.
I'd like to make a joke: They do it as a test of character. To know how many of these subscribers have the balls to say: Yeah, I watch porn. Now shut up and (let me) jerk off!
Here, they don't actively support Linux (in the sense that there's a WSUS here, but no official mirrors of the Fedora or Ubuntu repos), however they do use Fedora for most computers in the lab, and the wifi seems OS agnostic. Ever since the IT administration decided to switch from WinXP to Fedora for the Computer Centre, people have been showing more interest in Linux.

Whoosh!
Wikileaks provides a non-standard method for whistle blowing.
What's the ISO standardised method for whistle-blowing, then?
Maybe a bastard product of an unholy union between rtl Arabic and ltr Latin scripts...
Seconded. I use it to block w3schools and sexchange sites. Perhaps someone should do an intervention a la w3fools...

Oh root..Do you really want that crap? What about evince or okular?

"Seagate Barracua 7200.11 500 Gbytes"
Emphasis mine. I got the sarcasm perfectly well.
Your lawn's long since become a desert.
And you still couldn't read it correctly. Epic.
Circles are the friend lists of Google+. They form the basis of it. yeah, I wish Google Takeout had something to do with food too...

Google Talk is OSS? Since when? Or is GTalk something else?
So what? You think SpaceX should wait till the next moon landing?

Similar legislation exists elsewhere too. In UK its FOIA, namesake to the American law. In India its called the Right to Information Act.

The original firehose submission contains plenty of links. http://science.slashdot.org/firehose.pl?op=view&id=21377118 .
One simple and minor point. In GNOME, You Edit your Preferences. In KDE/Windows, you go Tools menu, and then change your Options.
