Like the Rob Red, which fetched $880,000 at auction despite being 0.95 carats. The reason? It's a brilliant red diamond. Impurities (of the prettifying category) add character, and that's what I'd want if buying a stone.
Personally, I'm holding my breath for the Pink Panther:
"The Pink Panther of the title is a diamond supposedly containing a flaw which forms the image of a 'leaping panther', which can be seen if held up to light in a certain way."

I think this is at least the latter is somehow fixable through about:config, but I forgot the instructions (didn't try it at first because it appeared to have side effects). Setting keyword.url = about:blank, keyword.enabled = false has little effect... [ Reply to This ]
You're looking for "browser.fixup.alternate.enabled", and you probably want to set it to false...
There is an extention that does this, not sure of the name, but look it up on the extention site.
Incidentally, that would be the "Autohide" extension, and you can configure it to hide everything including the tab bar - okay, so it'll show scrollbars if the content is bigger than the screen, but I guess that's to be expected; at least I'd assume you'd need to use CSS on the BODY tag of the displayed page to get rid of those.
Interesting. This is actually quite disturbing, as this is not the behavior I would have expected. The parameter is simply doing a string substitution.
This just shows that if you're using parametrized queries to be on the safe side you have to do it all the way.
There's no way in hell using prepared statements in the frontend will save you if your backend is still unsafe. Of course, in that example you could just scrap the whole SQL function and use a client-side prepared statement - at least in this case you'd have known what's going to happen all the way into the database...
Actually, Orion is also a well known space project from the 60s which dealt with electric irons, toaster parts, plastic beakers and similar stuff (wiki).
SCNR...

At the end of the tour Peter explains to me: "Now I tell you a few spoilers, but that's ok. *spoilers removed* But now we have this new spaceship you just saw. The Atlantis crew finds it in an underground hangar under the volcano. And now guess what this baby is called!" "??????" "You talked that much about this old German SciFi show in all these years that we called the ship ORION. " "What, really?" "I thought you'd like to hear that and now, thanks to your lovely present, I can finally see what they talk about on that show!"
I'm really touched that the only German SciFi cult spaceship comes to honour once again because of this. Of course Martina and me take photos of us in the control chair of the Orion. The "new" Orion is not an elegant flying saucer, but it's a big Ancient battleship that looks a bit like a star destroyer from Star Wars.
"Here's a small technical tip: The original Orion had a weapon called 'overkill' that destroyed even asteroids. I could get you the pencil sharpener they used as the control button for this weapon on the show. What do you think?" "Robert, your commitment is great, but I really don't think that today's audience would buy that!"
In the episode itself the scene looks like this: McKay wants to give the ship a name, but Sheppard interrupts him. "We will not call it the Enterprise! [...] We'll call it the Orion."
Wow!
Just thought someone here might want to know this...;)
Problem: Why doesn't the driver work on 64-bit and bigendian systems? Answer: We have no resource for that. Neither hardware, nor workforce.
I suggest someone get them an NSLU2 from Linksys - they retail for 80EUR here and have a 266MHz ARM CPU that can run in either little or big endian mode, with several distributions of Linux already available to install on them...

Or do they phear being litigated by L0phthouse?

I see someone is finally putting the shoe goblin's space station to good use...

The same goes for Bruce Schneier Facts. They just aren't funny with Chuck Norris...
np: Uusitalo - Musit Irti / Huutaa (Tulenkantaja)
You mean like Bruce Schneier Facts?

That's the long winded way of saying "I'm Spartacus!", right?

Screw beige.
I'll take my Stacker tower over a beige box any day of the week...
Looks sleek, has more than enough space to fit anything you want and it's got quiet 12cm fans instead of noise 8cm ones...
So yeah, I'll just call "black and steel" "the new beige".
So they're illegally using both audio AND video that belong to someone else, and you're wondering why they get their asses sued off?
How about making their own music and animation? Nothing to worry about then.
Or how about actually licensing the material they use? Or taking a course in common sense?
Excuse me for not shedding a tear for those people. Then again, I actually buy both my music and my anime, so maybe I'm weird...
np: DJ Shadow - Outsider Intro (The Outsider) (Yeah, just bought that one...)
Your graphics card runs it's own OS? That's cool.
Not that this makes it any less snake oil, but your statement isn't quite right either...
np: Dictaphone - Dictaphone II (Vertigo II)
That would be Al Lowe, and you would want him making more games...

I'm un-American, period. This is Europe, after all...

Maybe they should spend their time at taking da fun out of fundamentalism?
Of course, they'd have to start with themselves first...

No, I'm not kidding... ^_^

It's not as if fitting a cooler to a graphics card were hard or anything.
