It didn't in the original, and since the editors don't answer my emails I wasn't aware they had added it. I just hope they don't ban my entire subnet for 10 days like they did when I responded to an editors post about lack of a spell checker.;->
I am aware of that, it's one reason that I am highly upset about the complete and total lack of border security in the USA. If farm workers can cross the border, so can those that care man portable missles.
Hall of Shame!!! The following products and/or projects appear to use BusyBox, but do not appear to release source code as required by the BusyBox license. This is a violation of the law! The distributors of these products are invited to contact Erik Andersen if they have any confusion as to what is needed to bring their products into compliance, or if they have already brought their product into compliance and wish to be removed from the Hall of Shame.
A butcher is facing prosecution for insisting on selling his meat in pounds and ounces.
Martin Fidler of Bladebone Butchers in Bucklebury, Berkshire, was told a month ago by trading standards he had 28 days to start selling in metric.
He says that after 26 years he should not have to change to a system that would confuse him and his customers.
Trading Standards say they cannot test imperial scales with accuracy, and that Mr Fidler is breaking the law.
People who shop in Mr Fidler's shop would not be able to compare if he's good value, compared to the supermarkets that sell according to the law Roz Denny UK Metric Association The UK Metric Association say customers cannot compare prices between stores unless they are all using a common system.
Mr Fidler said: "We've been using pounds and ounces for 26 years - why should we be made to buy new equipment, which we're not going to understand.
"I'm going to have to go and re-school myself on the kilo system, and reschool my customers - if they come in and ask me for a pound I've got to say no, you've got to ask for it in kilos or grammes."
Roz Denny, of the UK Metric Association said Mr Fidler could still display prices in imperial weights, so long as the metric weight was displayed alongside.

NO, it would result in a class action suit if they didn't fix them. And apple would lose that suit.

What about spymac? They offer 1GB email and /. has covered them in the past.
Is it that hard for the editors to edit?
Please don't use such big words, this dumbass American can not understand you.
It's called supply and demand. The wages will have to go up, but if they go up enough there will be workers to fill those jobs.
Now that was a high int response. Please try harder and use less profanity.
Thanks!
I would bet those aren't DoD contractors that you are calling mercanary, they are more likely to be CIA or another intel outfit.
I am aware of that, it's one reason that I am highly upset about the complete and total lack of border security in the USA. If farm workers can cross the border, so can those that care man portable missles.
The DoD was recently debating if civilian contractors should be allowed to arm themselves.
The fact that they where even debating the issue should give you pause.
Please point out where the front lines are in the Iraq War.

No, contact Google and have them donate them. They will get more and Google will get a lot of good PR out of it.
No, it's not you. The old /. is dead, next to no one who hacks posts anymore, if you can't buy it in a box it appears that people don't care.
sigh.,
First rule of naming laws. The name of the law must be the DIRECT OPPOSITE of what the law really authorizes.
Then why do I get moderated down when I say negative things about the EU? It's not just American's.
And you are missing the point.

Damn, I miss the old
Me thinks you don't know what is going on in your own country. :->

IOW, destroying culture is OK, as long as you agree with what is being destroyed?
That isn't what you said before, so you must just be a liar.
But I thought you said "Nothing would be destroyed, just strengthened, and much more diverse."?
Well?
Then why are people in the UK being fined and/or threatend with jail if they dare use pounds instead of kilograms?
IOW, the 'good' groups get rights and the 'bad' groups do not.
What happens when your side is no longer in power and your 'good' group is now a 'bad' group?
WTF does 'world stage" mean? Anyone can travel to Texas and see the damn thing.
How do you get more open than that?
You remind me of something I once read. I will post samples of it below so you can see if you agree.
"Too many idealists have lost sight of reality and flat out can't see how unreal their proposals are. "
WTF are you talking about?
Assume 100 for the crt and 150 for the tower. Assume the crt is own 10 hours per day and the tower is on 24 and power costs 0.10 USD per kw/h.
.10 is 0.44 USD per day or $13.33 per month.
( 100 * 8) + (150 * 24) = 4400 Watts or 4.4 kw/h
4.4 kw *
I was way high.
