It's the combination of pumpkin pie and lavender that scores significantly higher than anything else (in this test).
Pumpkin pie & lavender 40% increase in blood flow Next highest is 20% Pumpkin pie alone 8.5% Single highest smell is orange at 19.5%. Even vanilla is 8.5%.
What I mean is that the explanatory fact seems to be confining the scrotums (different plural this time) to a warm space, not whether or not there's a laptop near that space.
On another note, the bottoms seem to heat up most where the wi-fi cards and memory are located... they should run the heat pipes by those.
Exactly! I'm reading the TFA (yeah, sorry), and I'm thinking - OK, here comes the part where they explain what a laptop has to do with anything, because they say the scrota (plural?) will heat up even with the laptop on a pillow. But no, they never got there. I mean, that would be too scientific, or what?
GS has long been rumored to be front-running the market (as legendary poster 'Anonymous Coward' said below, they see trades milliseconds before others). Yeah, I wouldn't want that to be confirmed as fact either.
The Samba shares feature is the big reason they're still using Ubuntu at this non-profit where I installed it on some Pentium M notebooks.
For my personal use though, I think features like not opening a new Nautilus window when you click on a folder, should be configurable though options (without having to fire up gconf-editor). But that beats a crashing KWin any day.
On a newer notebook with graphics in the Core i5 (i915 driver), I upgraded to KDE 4.5.2. Now KWin crashes all the time, window decorations are completely messed up. Doesn't matter whether desktop effects are on of off. And I don't know why they don't just make a KDE clone of Synaptic, instead of Adept or KPackagekit which miss functionality. And KNetworkManager - why?
If I go back to GNOME, I'll keep pulling my hair out at the severely dumbed down options. Maybe I'll try GNOME+Compiz+Emerald.
Because Nokia cannot market its way out of a paper bag. They actually _downplayed_ the launch of the N900; despite it being the most advanced smartphone a year ago, on a revolutionary platform (Linux with telephony extensions), and a new (for America) business model (buy your own phone, get a lower monthly fee). Not that T-Mobile is any better at marketing either. A new smartphone exclusive to their network, you'd think they might run a spot or two about it.

A minister? The rot goes up much higher... their President didn't think that HIV cause AIDS (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thabo_Mbeki#AIDS_denialist_connections). Hopefully he's changed his mind by now...
No, I think you're making a subtlety of something that is starkly obvious. If indeed the southern states had such a successful economy with agriculture, for which manual labor was an essential input, then they could well have hired manual labor. Where would they find them? Why, here's all these (presently) slaves. Let's emancipate them, and pay them low wages (just like they do with immigrants in the meat-packing industry these days).
But they didn't do that. They either couldn't conceive of a universe without slaves/where all men were free, or they couldn't give away the share of profits that would go to pay wages and slavery was a perfectly acceptable means to achieve that. Or some other thinking. But let's not finesse this (importance of agriculture, states' rights, federal mandates, whatever) - slavery was fundamental to them.
You tell me I'm missing the point, when in your own post you make it very emphatically. The southern states had no viable economy without slave labor. Think about it. Without free labor (and the inhumanity of slavery), they didn't have an economy (or believed so).
Then you try being sarcastic... "ho ho ho, they didn't sit around and decide they wanted slaves." Uh no, they just wanted to sit around and live off the slaves' labor.
>I was taught that the Civil War was fought to free the slaves from their southern oppressors. > In reality, the north controlled the federal government and set a history of economic policies > that ignored the well-being of the southern states. Slavery was the last straw; abolition would > have crushed the southern economies
So slavery was the part of the southern economy that was keeping it viable. In other words, the war was fought over slavery.
> Secession happened out of fear and desperation to preserve a way of life.
Yes, a way of life where slavery was not only acceptable, but essential.
MythTV and XBMC, which were as of the beginning of this year, the most current/usable Linux HTPC options, seem to be focused solely on the use case of displaying on a TV. Meaning very poor mouse support. Now you'd think the easiest thing is mouse support, because environments like GNOME or KDE/Qt, already have mouse support (I mean, you don't even have to think about it). But MythTV and XBMC bend over backward to take that away. Go to the config screens in MythTV (front and back-end) and you have to use tabs, arrow keys, etc. The new MythUI was supposed to have "full mouse support", but when I last looked in February, there was a dismissive comment about it. XBMC (on a PC) has better mouse support, but forget about just using a mouse to do stuff. I mean, mouse works in Windows Media Player, right?
Easy things should be easy. Pop-in a DVD,and you should be able to go to different DVD menus, or pause, etc. without having to know the key commands, and any special work-flows. Not possible with either.
Most people have PCs. A lot have them hooked up to VGA/DVI devices (not S-Video), such as monitors, LCD TVs hooked up w/VGA, or projectors. But they're written to work well with TVs (S-Video/composite devices), not computer displays. Or HDMI, I suppose (not sure if a video card treats HDMI as a separate output like S-Video, or just as another computer display, meaning mouse is shown - since I don't have an HDMI display). Scratch your own itch, I guess. But why not write it for the obvious audience, and then aim for the set-top box type user? won't those users just use the Comcast box anyway?

Great, so now we're going to have revelations about an affair? Why is the former ct admin sending him porn?

I mean, Meego actually released for the N900. India fingerprinting and photographing every resident for a census. Microsoft fixing 1800 bugs using "fuzzing."
What is truth, what is fiction? What was posted on April 1st? How will an advanced civilization far off in the future know? For that matter, how can I tell?

Very unlike a Toyota, I think.
Note: This is a flywheel hybrid, not a battery hybrid.
It is true, every side tries to leverage the government. That's what we're supposed to do (eternal vigilance and all that). It's just that changing textbooks is a particularly insidious, and in my view, odious and dishonest, way to do it. I think it puts religion before country.
CrazyJim said: > Creationism does not in anyway detract from evolution.
What? If sit here all day and come up with an explanation of how Hansel & Gretel can coexist with evolution, it still doesn't make it true.
Oh, and in your "long day theory" you have a fundamental misunderstanding of "24 hours". The 24 is mere convention.
> As for interpreting the constitution, I agree that it should stay in its current form unless it gets ammended.
Sure, as long as things aren't changed, they stay the same.
And the people wanting separation of church and state are not "Christian enemies." It is this siege mentality that keeps the fundamentalists afraid to venture outside the flock, and engenders such divisive language.
And the point being covered up is that the US Constitution has well-defined mechanisms to change it. Some people consider that to be its genius.
I don't take issue with most everything you said, in fact I and my N900 whole-heartedly agree (although N900 had me at 'df -h').
But, "crappy Zaurus"?
It (my SL6000) ran Linux, tethered to my Nokia over Bluetooth and let me surf the web at EDGE on a train on a gorgeous 4" VGA screen, had a very usable (for thumbing) keyboard, and SSH too... and all that in 2004.
You just didn't like that it couldn't use.debs, right?
