There were TSR utilities that basically wasted CPU cycles so you could play games like that. Centipede was another unplayable game unless you slowed it down.
And when these taxes are introduced as a temporary measure, to pay for Napoleonic wars and the like as income tax is, but remain enacted for perpetuity, that right is abused and should be rescinded. It has turned into a tithe, which was considered A Bad Thing centuries ago when it was conducted by the Church.
So would he. Apparently there was a "violation" but Google aren't saying what it was, which is part of his lawyering up; to find out. I'm betting some easily offended idiot stumbled on his stuff and reported it, at which point Google weilded the SmiteHammer. No, they won't give a chance to rectify the issue, the content is purged, no they won't tell you why, apart from fuck you.
I changed "Legal Stuff" to "Legal Bullshit" in the resources for the French localisation of a site. It hasn't gone live yet, so there's a little surprise waiting in the wings for the company which treated me like shit after all I'd done for it.
There'll be a new sub-niche: Vintage Twinkies. Magazines will recommend years to get and which soda to eat them with. New fashionable eateries will pop up with a Twinkie list instead of wine: "Do you have the '96?" "Sorry, sir, we've run out, however I recommend the '01" "How about the '92?" "I'll need a credit card before I can serve you that"
Or that it is any of their fucking business what a foreign country's voters decide. They'd think the same about European columnists if they expressed similar sentiments about American voters making a choice.
Does Australia have a "none of the above" on the ballot paper you are forced to complete? If not then you are forced to choose between options that cannot reflect your opinion. I'd rather move to a democratic country.
As far as manifestos go, it has been in every ruling party's manifesto to have a referendum on EU membership since 1992. It only took 24 years for them to finally uphold that pledge.
Ding. A lot of people were highly pissed off about how Maastricht went down with the general consensus being "you could have fucking asked *us* first before blithely charging in". This was pre Leroy Jenkins but the sentiment is the same.
What's this "though" bullshit? You cannot vote until you are 18. End of.
If you allow those who can't quite legally buy cigarettes and alcohol to vote where do you stop? Let all the 13 and 14 year olds who will grumble they were excluded vote as well? How about 6 year olds? Fuck it, you can vote from within the womb, with your mum acting as a proxy for your unformed fingers to put an X in a box for you. Won't someone stand up for foetus voting rights?
It depends which CE mark you're talking about. The official one, where the kerning is such that the curve of the E would make the concentric circles formed by both letters intersect over the concentric parts only, has fines attached to it for misuse as it is a certification mark.
The other ones, where the concentric circles adjoin or overlap like Olympic rings, is not official and is used by products that have not had this certification. These are usually cheaper, as certification costs money to prove it passes certain checks based on what the product is, hence the nickname of Chinese Export.
A lot of people don't know the difference and just compare the price. This is fair enough, but then it becomes a caveat emptor: a solar panel augmented charging brick (I have two import ones via Amazon) could fail inside the mandatory 2 year warranty with no recourse for the buyer. For now, they work and for the price I'm not that bothered if they fail next year as buying a replacement is still less outlay than buying a properly certificated one in the first place. I'd rather they didn't, but I am aware of what I buying.
Yes, that's why those voters won't favour them. Which leaves them either not voting at all or deciding which of the two evils is worse, LibDem or Tory.

Peaky Blinders is original content? Might want to tell the BBC. Exclusive, maybe (except it is on iPlayer)...
And tweaking config.sys and autoexec.bat etc. to get QEMM working.
Ah, yes. I managed to get 634K free base memory after tweaking settings to get everything loaded high on QEMM. Took some doing.
BASIC-A, GW-BASIC and GW-BASIC were available depending on what version you were running and from whom.

Bad luck for all those kestrels then, being misidentified as drones the world over...

They paid Dan "D. B." Cooper $200k...

1 / 22 chains, you mean. Or half a fathom.
I find it odd that I don't hear about all these European cases, but rather the ones that happen on a daily basis in US.
True, good cases only started showing up this century.

We already have that: teens restricted by ASBOs to their council estates. In other news, teenage pregnancies are on the rise.

That's totalitarianism with a veneer of faux democracy on top to con the populace into thinking that their vote means anything.

Australia isn't that far from EU. They came second in Eurovision.
I'll bet that CE mark is the Chinese Export version, not the EU one.

Large areas of the country voted leave as well. All but three, in fact.
