Good news everyone! We found an earth like planet only 20 light years from us. Unfortunately... it's actually a giant asteroid that's going to wipe us out before we can do anything about it.
And if you are a passenger in said car? This is also why I hate the in car GPS that do the same... it prevents the passenger from helping the driver navigate. Brilliant!
I'm with you.. at first I thought I might be on the wrong site.. but really WTF? Like anyone in the UK cycles anyway.. if they did they wouldn't be so pasty white. Plus.. jeebus help them if they get in an accident... the NHS thinks of cycling as a way to thin the herd.
If those two particles meet, they don't cancel out - they actually cause a rift in the space-time continuum that is so catastrophic that it convinces people to take out sub-prime home equity loans.
I guess it must have been the satan particle that encouraged banks to offer sub-prime loans.. and for fannie/freddie to buy them from the banks and leave the tax payers holding the bag. Oh wait.. I'm so silly.. that wasn't the satan particle.. that was congress! Thank jebus someone is fixing this mess... oh wait.. that's congress again.
I don't know about you people but I plan to ascend... and you can keep the clothes. Failing that.. give me a proper Jedi funeral so I can come back and haunt your ass... giving advice you don't really need.
What the hell is #40 birdshot? fine sand? There's a #4 birdshot and #4 buckshot. #4 buckshot works well against human sized targets and is the minimum anyone usually recommends for self defense.
I read a self defense ballistics study a few years ago (that I can't find a link for) and it was suggesting #1 buck as a defensive load. You get like 16.30 cal pellets in a 2 3/4 shell which amounts to a pretty good size hole in whatever you hit with it without excessive penetration.
If there is congestion such that these buses are getting stuck behind each other... the solution is simple. We will simply build an even bigger elevated bus that spans all 4 lanes and go right past all the congestion. What could possibly go wrong.. come winter the gorillas will freeze to death.
Now you are redefining everything, and making B's and A's much less valuable.
C was supposed to be the average grade.
D was acceptably below average.
F was unacceptably below average.
B was above average.
A was exceptionally above average.
A slight correction to your scale... your thinking is so last century. Now it's like this...
F Acceptable for Military Service (Infantry) D Acceptable for Federal Government Job C Acceptable for Local/State Government Job B Acceptable for Private Job A Unacceptable Over Achiever & Likely to be a future Dissident/Tea Party Supporter
This is one case where the market really DID decide.
Really? As I remember it a bunch of companies got together and decided to pull the plug on HD-DVD right after christmas one year when player prices had been cut.. think that timing was an accident? I also seem to remember that there was a rather large payout involved in the deal as well between said companies.
Good idea... but I have only so much blood to give... plus.. I'm using most of it. What I could do though is give other people's blood.. that would be much better and would represent my giving nature. Call it the redistribution of blood if you will. This sounds like a great way to meet new and interesting people.. if only for a short time. Luckily other people's blood is a near infinite resource.. what could possibly go wrong.
You know what they say... it's all parties and lap dances until you run out of other people's money.. err.. blood.
Reading these stories about MS lately is making me all nostalgic for when what they did mattered. I can't quite put my finger on it... but at some point they lost their big and scary status.. and have just become more of a joke.. to me at least. There was a time when their whims could shift the whole market.. these days I wonder if the masses even notice their flailing attempts to 'compete'.
What you need are cows with exhaust ports in their side... directly into the stomach that produces the methane. Problem solved. One note of caution though. Please please protect the exhaust port.. or you are liable to have some delusional rebel scum come along and use it for target practice with their proton torpedoes... simple ray shields are not enough! That will make quite a mess if the methane is ignited.

Some people buy gold, some people buy gas, munitions & non-perishable food.
Unfortunately gasoline does not keep well. I like to dollar cost average my ammo though.

Two million malware distributors want an early start on the game...
That was exactly my first thought... it's all the guys wanting to tear it apart looking for exploitable bugs.
There might or might not be a $20 bill in my wallet; I won't know for certain until I look for it?
The likelihood of there NOT being a $20 bill in your wallet approaches infinity for the cube of the number of women in your life.
Or something

Next time I come around I would want to reclaim my old FB account and pick up where I left off... discover the wonders of compound interest etc.
The $€£ is still king.
Hail to the king, baby.
Which means these are not financial backers or "anchor tenants" I'd want to have anything to do with.
I certainly wouldn't want to be an 'anchor tenant' on a floating datacenter... cement boots come standard.
It says they're nearly impervious to disaster But it sure seems like a tsunami would take it out.
That's the nearly part...

Wait. Do you claim Sharepoint is dead like Wave?
Sharepoint is undead... in that.. it's dead.. but no one realizes it and they keep deploying it. It's like.. the greatest tech the 90s has to offer!

Hundreds of years ago it seemed like lunacy to dry out land with big fans

Then they ridicule you.
Then they fight you.
Then you win.

Lets see if we can adapt this for Microsoft...
First they underestimate you.
Then they fear you.
Then you become irrelevant.
Then everyone else wins.

if you throw a party, you have to put out crackers
In communist China, it's the crackers that put out for the party.

My take on 'Twitter' - I have no idea what this is. [raises eyebrow] Stay thirsty my friends.
