Have you ever read technical patents ? In most cases the slang they're written in is meant to describe the "invention" as vaguely as possible but to stake claims as wide as possible. Either the invention is trivial, or its disclosure in the patent is simply useless for duplication.
Also, studies coming out of the woodwork documenting side effects when the patent is about to expire and generics would enter the market. Of course, the company has a New and Improved freshly patented replacement standing by.
Eulexics prefer simple and clean sans-serifs over the spectrum from serifs to ornamental. This font distracts by its irregular features (especially noticeable in g and p).
The same applies on a larger scale where eulexics prefer undecorated text over the highlighted, underscored, colored and fontful, and a white sheet over magazine style.
Apparently dyslexics need variety, while eulexics prefer uniformity. Interesting.
Why ? For sake of tradition and because all other papers are doing it. I find serif typefaces other than on Roman monuments and for headlines fuzzy and distracting. So I read online where sans-serif prevails.
Indeed, and they produce narrow bandwidth insanely (whole orders of magnitude more than very, ultra, super) high frequency electromagnetic radiation that is easily detectable by a M1EB.
A bit late in the discussion, but still. I have it you never implemented a TCP/IP stack on a barely capable embedded device, or you would understand why I call v6 a full bloat protocol rewrite.
As to NAT, that was just an example to demonstrate how a way to deal with IP address shortage cut short the long-in-the-teeth v6, partly because of its zero rewrite costs and partly because it was timely. I'm fully aware of its shortcomings.
I blame IPv6 for being late and more different than strictly necessary which has further delayed its acceptance. Meanwhile NAT and v4 only devices have festered.
Had the committee KISSed, this discussion would have been over 10 years ago at a much lower total cost.
The incredibly misleading quote states: "WS-12 produces annually approx. 8600 kWh at the average wind speed of 5 m/s". You state: "kilowatt-hours, no time period stated. They probably mean per year."
You may want to look up 'annually'. For once, the incredibly misleading quote used proper units and then you came along to confuse.
That said, small wind mills are notoriously inefficient, and even less cost-effective than the large ones. You got that right.
I'm 'against' IPv6 because it's a full bloat protocol rewrite instead of simple extension of IPv4. The latter would have been accepted and implemented much quicker, on a larger scale and at much less cost. In a way you could look at NAT as such an extension, one of its existential reasons being that IPv4 addresses always have been in scarce supply to anyone but the original colonizers of the void.
Yes, I know, there are other advantages advertised for IPv6. They must be really small given the lack of interest.
the British now speak Chinese, or something similar to Spanish and Spain.
You're confusing the British with Kalifornians. The former still speak something similar to English, albeit with an Hindi, Urdu, Bengali or Polish accent.:P
There's no difference in light output by a lamp with the same technology and the same power but with a different voltage. Or were you trying to be funny or sarcastic ?
Also middle/late 90'. Sabena Oslo Fornebu-Brussels. I was alone in the plane but for the crew (2 pilots, 2 stewardesses). The ladies gave me a bag full of Neuhaus chocolates to take home. Yes, those were the times.
Read the post above yours. Broad spectrum antibiotics indiscriminately kill innocent bacteria that are competing with the baddies for nutrients in your oral cavity. Keep things clean without creating a wasteland.
I've been trying to convince my wife to stop buying hand wash containing bactericidals and instead just try to keep everything clean with common products.
That said, I would not be amazed if some patent related to triclosan is due to expire. An excellent time for alarm and to push a new, supposedly less harmful, more expensive freshly patented replacement.
iPhone is a dead phone walking. Apple may seem to be in denial - although I'm pretty sure they're not - but the writing is on the wall. Seriously, what person with a keen eye on the future does not think that iPhone is going down the same path BlackBerry went ?

I have the same experience each time I switch to a new car. Don't worry. You will adapt.

-1, Frightening.

I see what you did there: shifting the blame for resolving the address of this lousy movie to a .be domain. Thanks, but no thanks !

If someone recommends Apple's products to you, take it that that person doesn't hold you in high regard.
That person assumes that you
That person is not your true friend.
Hear, hear.

I can't choose between +1, Depressing or -1, Depressing mods.

Sigh. I really don't see why an article that clearly addresses a "different audience" is posted here.

Yeah, mod me troll for stating the truth.
