My full name is there, but with a different middle initial. I doubt it was a typo, so I probably tried, got a "that name is a dup" message, figured that I'd already done it and forgot, gave up. Ah well, the ill-fated Mars South Polar Lander and Deep Impact had my name so the Martians and Comet People will be looking for me.
As I thought about the problem, pondering the range of computing devices that would ultimately participate in reading and writing email/PIM data, I concluded that we'd eventually need virtual desktops to synthesize and synchronize the workspaces instantiated in each device.
But what about the quantum phase variance? Don't you need to reverse the polarity of the neutrino flow? What a load of self-important dribblings with a completely unnecessary use of buzzwords just to make his obvious statements seem profound! (Hint: It wouldn't seem profound even if he played the theme to Backdraft along with it.)
Perhaps. Every representative system of government has its sneaky rules, procedures and customs, and the members rarely like to have a strict accounting of their attendance. Frequently someone has to officially request a roll call before quorum is enforced, and there might be reasons for not wanting to do that. Perhaps this was some committee of ammendment or something that required less people? *shrug*
In any event, it can't be adopted as law until both assemblies stop ammending it and shuttling it back to the other. A vote conforme.
If you're not there for the vote, tough. That's why most places have party whips to round up politicians from the local bars and brothels, and that "bing-bong" sound to let everyone know that a vote is happening. That said, they'll find a way to bounce it back down from the upper house and re-vote when everyone is awake.
Opposition party sneaks one over in the middle of the night in order to embarrass the government and score points. Not because they do or don't care about the issue. Nothing to see.
And all through the lower house, not a creature was stirring, except a tenth of the 577 deputies, of which 30 voted in favour of this ammendment. Joyeux Noël, but I doubt it'll survive very long once everyone gets back from the holidays.
I thought that someone once made special mice with a finger tip vibrating pin-pad that would enable someone to feel the screen by moving the mouse around? (I don't imagine that it would be at all easy to read the Captcha text that way, but it might be a start.) Was this a goofy tech that never worked out, or did I imagine it and should I rush to the patent office with my new idea? (Strictly defensive patent, of course... But imagine the new pr0n possibilities for the deaf-blind!)
If it doesn't cost too much, you could always anti-shoplift by sneaking it back on the shelf without getting a refund (and without giving them your name, if that's their policy on refunds).
I wonder what the charge for anti-shoplifting would be?:)

It was already easy to track him with all those RFID tags on the stuff in his bag.
Yeah, it's a great name for a company. "You'll always have Rumour Control Systems when you need them!"
So if we colonize the solar system, eventually someone might live in Mole City, Puck, Uranus?
And maybe the star Costello with the planets Who, What, I Don't Know ...

You know what they say about Opera: It ain't over until Steve Ballmer sings.
I thought the story was that Opera had purchased some company called Rumour Control.
I can't believe I didn't get on either of the name list microchips on this probe. Poot!
I don't suppose that the probe could have picked up some anti-matter along the way? (Then again, that would be too quick for them.)

Ah well, it's the thought that counts.

Maybe it's a geek T-Rex? They always have skinny arms.
Yeah, the judge is obvious an anti-pastafarian!

Mind you, any terrorist Santaistas might face actions by the Department of "Homeland for the Holidays" Security.

Digital Defluffer doesn't sound too bad.
Someone (named Jack) will probably complain that the movie can be hacked to remove the pixellation.
For Spiderman they had to edit out two towers.
No worries, the Japanese can supply him with all the tentacle pr0n he can use.
From the look of the top picture in the FA, it won't do your tires or wheel-alignment much good either.
