Ah, but this is one port to rule them all. Conceivably, this could be the only port (aside from the charger) on an ultrabook, maybe a USB port or two in addition. Add a Thunderbolt docking station and you can add ANY port that can be placed on a PCIe bus, even an external GPU.
I have an external GPU on my thunderbolt connected docking station.
It's been available since 2011.
Sony Vaio TZ2. (And no stupid Apple crap with active cables and wierd connectors - it uses a fibre optic cable and a USB connector).
The reason for it is unimportant to him, now he just accepts that it's happening for some reason and how can we put something in space that can block the sun partially while maintaining a synchronous orbit around the sun between it and Earth. It's not that that is a simpler solution than reducing your personal carbon footprint but instead it's one that doesn't require government intervention (which he views as the ultimate evil) and doesn't require him to change.
Uh, he thinks we can put a sunshade up without government intervention?
And if you take pretty much the same data, over time, and show when the sunspot activity grew & shrank, I bet you would show that the temperature rise pretty much is spot on with the rise in geomagnetic activity from the sun
Cyanobacteria and algae are responsible for the majority of the earth's atmospheric oxygen. Of course, their impact is indisputably positive, whereas we tend to fuck things up.
Wah?
They managed to destroy most life on Earth!
The day we manage to come up with an ecological catastrophe the size of the of the oxygen poisoning we can be proud.
As far as that article goes, yes WND was the first to report it, but it was later run on Iranian state websites, such as Fars News Agency. Here's a link [farsnews.com]. No, they didn't publish it in English for obvious reasons, but even with Google translate you can get the gist of what they're trying to say
Ok, I'll check that out. Thanks for the link.
. Many other news outlets covered it as well -- though perhaps not the ones you read. You catch the "cancer" comment last month, or did that one pass you by as well?
Well, I don't read the Daily Fail, so yes, it might have slipped by me.
The problem is when a leader states "The Holocaust never occured"
Leader of what?
You do know that the Iranian "president" has no control over the armed forces or foreign policy? That he's probably going to be thrown out by the real leaders or Iran soon?

(damn, meant Sony Vaio Z2, not TZ2, sorry).

Ah, I get it. You pack around a docking station that has a hundred ports on it. That fixes the problem.
Duh, you don't pack around the docking station - it stays at home/in then office.
On another note, Google Maps does a far better job than OpenStreetMaps, particularly when it comes to countries outside N America and Europe
Well, sometimes.
Look at http://tools.geofabrik.de/mc/?mt0=mapnik&mt1=googlemap&lon=-8.15637&lat=7.0008&zoom=9
Looks like the Google one is much better, right? Lots more names.
But, look at the ones missing on the Google one:
Where is Blolequin? Where is Zouan Hounien? Where is Mahapleu?
These are not small omissions - these are all larger and more important towns/villages than the ones shown by Google.
(I'd guess that Google somehow screwed up digitising the positions of mid-sized administrative locations).
As usual we find that commercial products have shitty quality contol.

Private industry is going to pay for it?
WTF!

How much do you want to bet?

If there was a more gentile approach like how we reduced smog, acid rain, and CFC putting a hole in the ozone layers.
Uh, those were solved by emissions regulations, cap and trade, and banning an entire class of chemicals!
You think that was "gentle"!
The problem is that people are refusing to use the mechanisms that worked in the past, claiming that they won't work and will destroy the economy.
Typical troll, doesn't reply to the comment.
Like said, you don't know what ad hominem means. It does not mean "waah, they're being mean to me".
Crime has obviously fallen due to the increasing number of illegal mexican immigrants.
Hah!

You answer the question. Surely you have the minimum brainpower to do it.
Hint - "fossil".
You don't know what ad hominem means.
If he said we should ignore your argument because you're a wanker that would be ad hominem.
Saying we should ignore your argument because you don't know what the fuck you're talking about is not ad hominem.
Why HADCRUT3?
Why 1998?
Why do you claim this is a falsification when you know it isnt?
Oh, because you are a troll. I forgot.
They'd be applauded for their heroic actions against the infidels on Al-Jazeera?
Don't watch much Al-Jazeera, do you?
The IPCC are notoriously conservative in their worst-case scenarios.
I mean, it's still some time 'till July 22nd, why the fuss now?

You need a French bank account however.
Lets look at the network cost for the entire us vs france. It would be like having only a local plan in california
You misunderstand. The Free Mobile plan he's describing is unlimited talk for the whole EU, US, and Canada.
Also, population wise, France is a teeny bit bigger than California.
So, you'd rather go with a system that uses fail-deadly than fail-safe.
Ok.
This isn't actually a hole in rails.. If you use mass assignment,[...]
No. The problem is that any idiot who thinks he doesn't need to sanitise user input is going to get fucked.
And did.

gee... we have only had them since world war two, maybe you should pay more attention, then you would be less worried
Well, no you didn't.
The ancestors of todays bunker busters were invented by the Brits - Barnes Wallis in fact.
Iran has said, many times (e.g. last month http://www.catholic.org/international/international_story.php?id=44676), that they want and intend to cause "the death of all Jews and the destruction of Israel".
Bizarre. If they want to cause "the death of all Jews" you'd think they'd start with the ones in Iran wouldn't you?
Ah, the original source of the "Catholic Online" craziness is Reza Kahlili in World Net Daily - http://www.wnd.com/2012/02/ayatollah-kill-all-jews-annihilate-israel/.
Well done that mining company employee - thread totaly hijacked. Expect a bonus.
