Same idea is in place in the Cayman Islands. They're sponsoring free dives to collect them and encouraging restaurants to find ways of preparing them to help get rid of them.
The solution there is either an in-tank pump or a jet pump. Jet pumps use the venturi effect to push water (or diesel) up the return pipe. I had one in my old house for a well that was 50 feet deep or so. The pump was above ground and there were 2 ABS pipes going down into the well - 1 for the pressurized water that supplied the venturi and one for the returned water. There was a foot valve and venturi at the bottom of the well.
One little, two little, three little endians, four little, five little six little endians, seven little, eight little, nine little endians, 0x0A little endian bytes.
only two of the 150,000 boards made there have been shipped with defects
1 of 5 of the boards I ordered recently was defective. It has the "can't keep the USB running" error. They were the 'Made in China" versions. Hopefully the Sony-made ones will be more reliable.
Did you REALLY think the filament of an ordinary incandescent tungsten bulb operates at 4940.33 degrees Fahrenheit (2727 degrees C)? Seriously?
Yes, I do. Absent phosphors, the only way for a filament to have a color temperature of 3000K is to be at 3000K. From the article:
"An electric current heats the filament to typically 2,000 to 3,300 K (3,140 to 5,480 F)), well below tungsten's melting point of 3,695 K (6,191 F)."
and
"Tungsten is the metal with the highest melting point, 3,695 K (6,191 F). A 50-hour-life projection bulb, for instance, is designed to operate only 50 C (122 F) below that melting point."
In a word, Restaurants. All of the food that is left on plates is trashed. All of the precooked and/or prepared food is trashed after its 'safe' time is up. Everything left on the salad bar is trashed.
How, exactly? The main difference is that for admin stuff by default Windows will pop up a UAC prompt, while Linux will pop up a password prompt. I don't think that's that much better, especially since you need to enter the password about as often as you need to click on a UAC prompt.
You seriously don't see a huge difference between a user being asked a yes/no question and having to come up with a password they've never been told? You're ok with a single click being the only rampart between your system files and the raging virus hordes? Wow.
No worries, AK Marc - I'm wasn't being critical - that's why I mentioned the possibility that it wasn't a violation of Tiller's Rule. FWIW I don't consider correctly spelling a near homonym a 'typo', but you can call it whatever you want.
I don't know about that - I could imagine a blobular form of life that forms grasping body parts as needed via internal pressure from its outer layer. Kind of like how bacteria engulf their food.
Your link declares "Retroactive taxes are not ex post facto laws. Substantive due-process challenges to retroactive tax laws are given rational-basis review per the decision in the case of United States v. Carlton." I disagree. If H&R Block and TurboTax have to wait until January to finalize their tax software because congress hasn't finalized the laws that apply to money I earned up to 12 months ago (and was taxed on at the then-lawful rate), then I call shenanigans. That's an ex post facto law.

Ever heard of rat-shot? It's perfect for hunting rats and squirrels in attics. Yes, I have gone squirrel hunting in an attic before.
A python with an IQ of 66 or so could be pretty impressive.
Yeah, but it's not a very good adder.
Ouch! I saw regular for $3.0799 the other day at a Wawa station here in the Richmond VA area.
The bottoms of my feet are not imaginary.
Rotate your feet +-90 degrees and they will be imaginary. You will also likely fall down.
At least it will allow the government to clean up the maritime charts by removing the LORAN-C TD lines that clutter them up.

I asked Kaspersky who he sent to whack the neighbor and frame McAfee.
What arm of the Russian mafia did you send to whack John McAfee's neighbor? :-)
My 5 that were shipped to the US came from Newark.com and (as mentioned before) they were all Made in China.
I thought the discovery of perchlorates dashed their hopes of finding microbial life - something about it being a wicked oxidizer?

...proper Windows practice... There's the problem - how many people properly administer Windows machines?

I'm not sure if you've fallen victim to the syndrome described in my sig or not. The word is 'precedent', not 'president'.
"Ethel, you shameless hussy!"
My God, you must be as old as I am.

The first place can be found at Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory, the second seems to describe Ireland.
I _kid_, I _kid_ :-)
Granted, you probably cannot tax gross profits. That would be terribly unfair ...
As a mere citizen, the US Government taxes my gross profits (income). Why do corporations deserve better treatment that I get?
