My retirement fund is pretty much crushed at this point. Being consumed by black holes created by a multibillion dollar scientific whiz-ma-gig is sounding like a pretty good exit plan.
I would like to believe an OSS equivalent might be called "Open Bar", but experience tells me it would be named something impenetrable like "SpackleMonkey" or a difficult to pronounce word from a long dead language.
The PCI spec also has required delays from power good to reset negated and then another required delay from reset negated to first configuration access. The second delay alone is about 1 sec (2^25 clock cycles).
He was a heroin addict from the start of the movie. He only smoked weed as a maintenance drug because he he was trying (unsuccessfully) to quit the hard stuff. But it was a pretty good movie with some key elements: Liz Hurley, drugs, and puppets.
Tell your employer it will take a few [relatively short period of time] to look over the specs and make an estimate. Then pull a 'Scotty' and multiply the estimate by [ludicrous number] and throw in a distractingly bizarre resource request.
For example: "These repairs will take two days, a quart of whiskey, and a rubber mallet."

A portion of the weight problem is the lead shielding.
Lose the lead, gain a tan.
Everyone dies, things explode, and human endeavour turns to chaos...
I think I saw that on The Discovery Channel.
That's what I like to hear when things go up in smoke.
I think you just coined the new /. motto.
Goodbye 'News for Nerds'.

News for nerds, stuff that matters:
Soulsteal talking about his green apple splatters.
Wrong. Some Atom models support 64 bit (200/300 series), some do not (N270 series).
Yeah but Meatwad make the money see, Meatwad get the honeys G.
With all of that, what would you want with a functioning brain?
The majority like sports more than art and science, it's as simple as that.
If enough parents asked for the reverse, it would happen.
Well, there's only so many football linemen in a given school. :-)
The population is large enough to allow for a few sacrificial lambs
PORK PORK PORK!
The Swedish Chef Goes to Washington.
From what I see on C-SPAN, Congress often resembles an episode of The Muppet Show.
I would like to believe an OSS equivalent might be called "Open Bar",
but experience tells me it would be named something impenetrable like
"SpackleMonkey" or a difficult to pronounce word from a long dead language.
If only we had some history of technical partnerships with Microsoft to use as a guide.
The currently airing episodes are the end of the line,
but I think it was finished after the first season.
The first of the last episodes had a total disconnect from scientific accuracy, and inconsistencies with earlier shows.
I think they are trying to 'reimagine' the glory that was Battlestar 1980.
A girl from Nantucket...
...put her sand in a bucket.
She dug and she dug,
and piled her sand high,
then said: "Don't ride with Ted Kennedy o'er a bridge,
or you will die."
If the secret ingredient is cocaine then that was a smart move.
Ricardo Montalban dies. Steve Jobs takes leave of absence.
Hmmm... has anyone ever seen them together?

The quality of politicians often mirrors the majority of the voting population.
Coors Light by night and Folgers Crystals by day.
If it's worth doing, it's worth doing half assed.
It's the American way!
No problem:
for (;;) {
for (i=1000 ; i ; i--)
printf("meow\n");
cough_up_hairball();

Ben Stiller starts out the movie smoking weed...
He was a heroin addict from the start of the movie.
He only smoked weed as a maintenance drug because he he was trying (unsuccessfully) to quit the hard stuff.
But it was a pretty good movie with some key elements: Liz Hurley, drugs, and puppets.
Errrr Divide by Zero
Ignignokt: Here on the moon our math is so advanced, even this is possible.
In a just world, he will die a homeless drug user on the streets.
Darl does not deserve drugs. How about him dieing a homeless, disease ridden prostitute?
Then the only change necessary is creditors seizing his home.
