Er...no, they didn't. If you bought a PS3 able to play PS2 games, it is still able to do so. Sony never took that ability away from any PS3 that had it.
Do you really want to get the firmware details for your toaster? Or do you really expect a JTAG port so you could hack your microwave's microcontroller?
And you're honestly trying to claim you haven't made a least three mistakes while driving all that time? Not all mistakes result in tickets or accidents. Most don't.
But the only way for such a system to actually lower accident/injury/death rate would be for the majority of vehicles to be of the new system. As long as the other 125 million vehicles on the road aren't the new system, then any safety improvements can't occur.
Facts not in evidence. If an automatic car can be made to drive more safely than the average driver, would it not lower deaths with even partial implementation?
If you are in one of these "smart" cars, but have vehicles on both sides, there are not many options to avoiding an accident other than braking.
Which the automated car can do *much* more quickly. Reaction times matter enormously in that sort of situation, and that's a contest the machine wins every time.
Every year or so I wipe the drive with a fresh XP-CD install, and need to reinstall my favorite programs, but that would be true of any OS, whether it's Mac, Lubuntu, or Chrome
You are absolutely on crack. That is not true of any OS other than Windows.
"Human rights oppression" aren't really much of a concern for such workers

There's not as much of a space junk problem at geostationary because there's more room up that far (the amount of room available at a given altitude, after all, increases with the square of that altitude) and we don't launch as much stuff up that far. The real problem is in Low Earth Orbit, because it's so easy to reach and there's so much less space there. Just about anything in LEO will de-orbit eventually, but it may be centuries.
Yes, they did. But it took *time*, and they couldn't do everything. The German railroad units mostly concentrated on advancing maybe half-a-dozen railheads for the entire Eastern Front. By the time winter started in 1941, advancing German forces had completely outrun the slowly reconstructed railways and were in considerable supply difficulties because of that.
Most significant on the left is the natural order for most writing systems (if you're not from the middle east), and including leading zeros makes it easier to sort automatically, thus 2011-05-08 is more logical than 8-5-2011. Both are more logical than 5-8-2011, though.
2011-05-08 15:00 sorts naturally left-to-right. 1500 08-05-2011 requires you to parse out the elements and sort on each one individually.
Internally, though, you should just use POSIX time, which is universal and mostly easy to handle, only becoming difficult when you have to make distinctions based on traditional representations (and that's *always* difficult). Convert it out to whatever format the users need when necessary.
Uhhhh..you can do that over a phone if you wish, you know that right? All they care about is that you give them a legit serial, you could tell them your name is Henry Fonda for all they care.
Uhhh..you know that they know what the phone number you're calling from is, right? And it's not Caller ID for an 800 number service--they get your number through ANI; you can't block it. In fact, it's required by the FCC that they get to know your number. So go ahead and tell them you're Henry Fonda--they know who you are anyways.
Paying trolls to go away may or may not be a wise strategy (personally, I'd be against it--once you've paid him the Danegeld, you never get rid of the Dane). *Announcing to the world* that you'll pay trolls to go away is beyond stupid.

Actually, yes. I'd love having either of those.
Because I'm getting tired of all these Packt shills.
"Closest available parking spot?" Heck, have it drive home and park in your driveway! Save a boodle that way...
And you're honestly trying to claim you haven't made a least three mistakes while driving all that time? Not all mistakes result in tickets or accidents. Most don't.
When you've got a tough problem, you do the easy parts first. Then when you've got those down pat, you move on to the harder parts.

Google it your own damn self. Yes, it's out there. No, I didn't follow the links.

Yes, but "enough time" for a lot of it is centuries or more. Meanwhile, we're creating more at a vastly greater rate than what's de-orbiting.
Leaving guest accounts enabled should be a sacking offense for whoever is responsible for that piece of configuration.
Why would I want to use a format created to suit things as they no longer exist?
...if Kepler discovered Ringworlds.

"Actual actors doing their thing" is still a cut scene. It's just a very fancy cut scene.
A cut scene is any presentation in a game where there is no gameplay and the player just watches it happen.
Read "1943" and immediately the first stage music fired up in my head. Objective target Tone. May you fight bravely!
