Spot on, I just had to stop somewhere to avoid turning completely incomprehensible by naming all exceptions and alternate readings in just one or two paragraphs, I guess.
In either case it makes much more sense if you write it up in kana, it's a pity/. wouldn't let me.
It just keeps getting more complicated, I'm afraid: there is no such thing as a standalone t-syllable in the Japanese language, the only standalone consonant being -n (as in: a-ri-ma-se-n). What Golias-kun transcribed as -t- here is in fact the syllable tsu that is used as a 'stopping sound' (sorry, I don't have the proper linguistic term available) when you literally hold your breath just before an explosive syllable within a word. Meaning, you are supposed to read kitto as KIT-[make a small pause, hold your breath/tongue]-TO.
I tried to write katakana but either slashcode or firefox swallowed them. Anyway, the tsu syllable (the one that's looking like a tilted smiley in katakana) if used in that way is written in small print. Otherwise, you would write it standard sized and read it just normally as tsu, here: ki-tsu-to (which doesn't have any meaning in Japanese).
Compare this to the use of tsu within the word deppa (which is quite useful in itself, as it is the word for prominent or crooked teeth). In this case the tsu serves for 'doubling' the plosive -pa and is thus be transcribed as de-p-pa.
MALICIOUS HACKER ORIGINALLY PLANNED TO BOMB NASA SERVER ROOM
'I thought it was neat because it's a brute force way to gain access to the NASA servers,' says F. Ilthy Hair, after the bombing plans were revealed on his PC, 'but then I just got lucky by wildly trying out username/password combos. The combo copper/copper proved to be usefull in the end, God knows why...'
It has DRM, e.g. licensed downloadable content that will become unreadable after 60 days, and their eBook format is proprietary.
But. They also deliver a PDF- and JPG-to-ebook-converter - though, Windows only as of yet, as far as I'm informed -, and they halfway published the format as well, so that there are already people working on freeware converters.
Moreover, the reader actually runs on Linux, and I've already seen a patch enabling you to open up a console on it. Might turn out to be fun, similar to the way homebrew went on the PSP, contrary to Sony's plans.
Wow, I agree with you 100%, but just as an aside, why of all people don't YOU show grammar its due respect by spelling it correctly?;)
My two cents: I don't mind typos of the 'teh' variety (that would include 'grammra' but not 'grammer', people who use the latter often cause me to think they themselves have not yet had enough overall reading experience to have learnt the proper spelling), but the differences between 'to' and 'too' (note that there are various grammatical applications of each) are there for a reason. Thus in more serious cases of misuse than (let me not get started about 'than' and 'then'...) those in CmdrTaco's article above it might actually get tiresome to try and determine the intended meaning in each and every case. On the other hand, it might be half the fun if the article itself isn't all that.
On the matter of 'pipelining': it should be rather obvious that if your pipeline isn't wide enough to automatically correct typos and (easily understandable) misspellings, you are clearly reading too fast for your apprehension skills. No offense.
Note that my excessive use of parentheses probably damaged your pipeline more than any badly spelled word ever could.
... what kind of person takes their Sony CDs to work in order to play them on PCs on a military network. Kinda bizarre that that's even possible.
Makes me sleep better, on the other hand, to see that there are music lovers even there. You know how the saying goes: Where
one sings you may sit down and sing along, bad people have no song.;)
I hope you're not just trolling, because that would make an incredibly rare name, it sounds _very_ outdated, but it's definitely female. Keine Ursache.
I'll bite: It's hardly appropriate calling King Crimson 'Symphonic Rock', which, while it might be an okay label for other progressive rock groups like YES, SAGA or ASIA, completely misses the point in case of KC. Sure, there have been (admittedly gorgeous) symphonic pieces like 'Epitaph' along the way, but they have an evil side in the best sense of the word - not as you are trying to force to read it - as well, recording (and subsequently publishing) hours after hours of freely improvised rock and jazz, going further in terms of dissonance and experimental harmonics than most other rock groups that I know of. And yes, they have been doing that for almost 40 (!) years now, without compromising their sound all that much.
You can call me a fanboy now, if you like to do that sort of thing.;)
The US is not Iran, yet their leaders look strikingly alike. I only recently became aware of a striking resemblance between Bush and Ahmadinedjad, really similar eyes, don't you think? Moreover, the Iranian president looks like a pathological alcoholic, and sure acts like one, too, but -- what were we talking about?
Right, pseudo science. It damn well is. To cut it short for the poor souls that are being taught this kind of crap science or believe in it by virtue of free choice: you are very much alone on your quixotic crusade, while the scientific community of the world just shudders for a second before getting back to business. Outside of those fundamentalist enclaves, no one will waste their time weighing creationism vs. evolutionism, it's not even an option. There is no evolutionISM, anyway: there is in fact a theory of evolution, and then there is a belief in intelligent design.
Come back when you can come up with a competing theory, and then let science be the judge. Everything else is a waste of time.
It will prove difficult to post anything under this article that might not just as well be labeled 'flamebait'. As far as my two cents are concerned, I think I failed.
I'll keep watching to see if the forest fires will start from inside Sydney this year. Watch out for California as well, next summer! We might even get satellite images detailing XBOX360 distribution from all over the world.;)
No big investments necessary, because cancer treatment 'clinics' are already in place on every corner in every city, worldwide. Except Iran and North Korea, maybe. Poor folks!
Completely valid point if we were talking Uzbekistan or Tuvalu here, but the case being about the UK and Germany, I'd say your argument is flawed. Big time, that is.
Troll. You'd need - what? - a 10 GHz CPU or something to that effect if you want to emulate a dedicated game machine like the PSP with its 333 MHz processor. With even PS1 emulation on a PC not working sufficiently yet, how long do you intend to wait for proper PSP emus?
No, but I can say Fahrvergnügen, especially since Stanford's team leader Sebastian Thrun is actually from Germany, you hit the nail on the head. Great run, saw it on TV yesterday, and a major step in development of fully autonomous bots.

for whatever that's worth

Thanks, I found the "à la aped, eh!" extraordinarily intriguing.

And then you misspelled misspelled. Congrats.
Yeah, sure, but then this whole new F.U.D. campaign would have been a tad (read: hilariously) too far out in the open, don't you think?
And concerning your second statement, Boeing is just as militarized as Airbus, and Northrop, and McDonnell-Douglas -- check again.
Thats scary... I got around New York with those same two phrases... (thank you and one beer please)
