  1. Re:UK switching to Linux on New Antitrust Complaint Filed Against Microsoft · · Score: 1

    If you had any idea how hot it gets over here (Florida), you'd understand the ice ;) The last thing you want in the middle of the summer is a cup of hot *anything*.

    So let me get this straight, you guys drink your tea weak (2 minutes to steep?!?) with milk in it?

    Anyhow I'll give that a try tonight or tomorrow just so I know what the fuss is about.

    If you'd like to know how tea gets made over here (which I doubt seeing as ya'll practically invented drinking the stuff) just let me know.

    Only ten pints a day? Thats weaker than sun tea.

    What's with the "white" & "Hob Nobs", limey?

    Everything else I follow....

    Think Quart Mason Jar, think Black Peoke, think lots of ice, think 3 cups of sugar / gallon.

    yum

    Wow thanks. They *should* remake that game, say using the Aurora (NWN) engine.

    I do remember playing it once or twice, but I couldn't get into it. I don't think I even made it out of the town....

    Heh that's cute.

    We still make tea the same way, boiling teabags in water. We just add ice.

    Sun tea is too weak.

    Don't feel too bad, I ran A VIA/Win32 box with the AC 97 onboard. Newest drivers & DirectX. The sound still chopped bad enough to make me disable the Audio & throw an generic SoundBlaster card in.
