No, don't think of it like a joystick. You need to think of it like a clitoris. A joystick you wrap your hole hand around. I nipple gets rolled around between the thumb and forefinger. This is definitely more like a clitoris than anything else.
"You sir, have obviously never had several thousand emails arrive on your inbox at once, not ceasing for days... causing your spamassassin daemons to go nuts causing cascading failures all over your system as your computer runs out of memory."
You sir, are obviously not having the catchall redirect to gmail.com allowing their spamassassin daemons to go nuts and cause any failures on their system as their computers run out of memory.
Yeah, in '95 I just didn't get why anyone would want to access e-mail via a web browser when there were plenty of mail clients that could be used for mail via POP3.
My iPod Shuffle doesn't seem to have any of these problems. The back doesn't scratch up, the front doesn't scratch up. I have no problems with a display to read. Works just fine and I love it.
The forgetting Financevision?

Yahoo's been down this route before. They had Yahoo! Financevision which they shut down in 2002. I guess we really are going full-circle.
Let's see, my car has a computer that let's me change the way the transmission works (adaptive, economic, sport) and I don't see the result until I'm driving. There are other settings that I don't pay much attention to but could end up setting them differently on accident.
My mother plugged her digital camera's charger into my wife's car and it blew some fuse that changed the car from automatic to manual until we figured out that this was the problem.
Cars are plenty complex and you can do lots of things to screw them up.
jargoone, did you spend any time in reading the comment in context? Why would you want to backup an iPod? Well, here is an example of a reason I'd want to do it.
Of course it did what I told it to do. I responded to someone saying "Why would you want to backup an iPod". This is an example of why one would want to be able to back up their iPod.
Ok, so I put the tunes on my iPod Shuffle from my Mac at home. Then I travel halfway across the world to Australia with my work Thinkpad. I put my iPod Shuffle into my laptop's USB port to charge and accidentally agreed for the iPod Shuffle to become associated with the Thinkpad. All my music was gone. Now, had I used the file system to copy off all of the music from the iPod onto the Thinkpad as a backup to the iPod Shuffle I'd have been ok. Since I didn't I was screwed!
Speaking of Web Platforms. Check out Robert X. Cringley's column this week. He discusses the Google Web Accelerator (which currently can't be downloaded) and says:
what I DO know is that the Google Web Accelerator effectively turns every user into a thin client, whether they know it or not.
He also says about some point in the future when Google is a platform that at that point:
Its a GoogleWorld that requires no AOL, no Microsoft, no Intel, no HP or Dell -- only Google, cable companies, telephone companies, users, and of course advertisers and web page producers.
My Dad's friend actually had 2 cases of wine sent to my Aunt's house while we were on vacation there because it was easier and cheaper since you couldn't get it from the state store, even by ordering it.
If any person shall desire to purchase any class, variety or brand of liquor or alcohol which any such store does not have in stock, it shall be the duty of such store immediately to order the same upon the payment of a reasonable deposit by the purchaser in such proportion of the approximate cost of the order as shall be prescribed by the regulations of the board. No purchaser may be required to purchase more than two bottles or containers of the product, provided that such product is available through the State store system.
So if the State Store system doesn't sell that product you may be required to buy a full case but if they do not more than two bottles.
I can see how parts of this might be interesting in a military application. Run several UAV's in formation with one person controlling them. Use the bluetooth to enable them to triangulate positions and keep from getting too close to one another.
You can also do this with spikes and small flares. You put down a retractable set of tire spikes and use flares to mark the ends so the cars know where they are and can drive the S-pattern. This would work for impromptu roadblocks.
Have their fellow reporters MetaModerate the articles. Each day you check the facts of ten randomly selected articles by your fellow reporters. Heck, small independent, free publications could MetaModerate each other.
Same here. I put in a few pictures from the Israel Air Force Museum and didn't get anything similar. In fact putting in one plane I got a picture of a helicopter as one of the supposed similarities. Just typing in the names of the planes in the search engine did give me the actual pictures from the Israel Air Force Museum website.

Being that the Merom was designed in Israel it was given a code name of a location in Israel.
That would be the US Embassy in Moscow.

I can well imagine a "only terrorists and criminals need to use cash" campaign, though.
Why would they need to use cash when they can just buy your credit card details from some poor paid call center employee in the 3rd world?
2) Screen getting greasy because you put it against your ear
Perhaps you should stop stufing french fries in your ear.

Nailed it right on the head!

You sure this isn't just an elaborate version of a tabletop RPG game based on 24?

Actually from what i can tell State Stores in PA are required to order anything that you wish to purchase. Per Section 305 of Article 3 of the Pennsylvania Liquor Code:
So if the State Store system doesn't sell that product you may be required to buy a full case but if they do not more than two bottles.

Not too much since his ISP suspended his account.

How about the guy that dismissed the Internet as a peripheral player in the burgeoning technology scene until the end of 1995!?
Oops, typo. The article I pointed to had it correct though.
IBM? Don't you mean Lenevo?
