> Indeed, imagine doing 3D CAD/CAM without a mouse.
I have no difficulty at all imagining doing that with a trackball. Doing it with a mouse, on the other hand, sounds like a PITA. But then, so does using a mouse for much of anything. Yet almost everyone uses a mouse. Mice aren't going away.
You can use Google Search without having a Google account, you know. You don't even have to allow cookies or Javascript and you can block ads. You don't get all the neat personalized features, of course, but it works fine.
So am I. As a surgical procedure it is, of course, to be avoided if possible, but if some woman wants to have that thing in her womb cut out it is none of my concern.
Of course, I also oppose child support. A father should be at most liable for the cost of an abortion.
Of course they said it was cold. Every newsie knows that you have to whoop about the cold when writing about Antarctica, no matter how irrelevant the weather is to the story.
A telescope collects light or other radiation passing through a large aperture and forms an image. This neither concentrates the neutrinos nor forms an image.

Which makes it the optimum time to look for Hawking radiation. I don't think you'd be able to detect it, though. A hole that size is rather cold: the noise from even low-level accretion activity seems likely to drown it out.

This is Germany. There will be no bank run until it is properly planned, organized, and regulated.

What you have described *is* Government mandated censorship.
Look at the name of the law. Working as designed.
...of copyright law (or any law) in the collective possession of Slashdotters is truly impressive.
> ...trackballs have a bit of a learning curve...
What's to learn? I've watched people who had never seen a trackball before learn to use mine. Takes about 15 seconds.
> Touch computing may be mainstream for handheld devices...
And that's it, of course. Since handhelds are the current trendy "technology" they are all that matter.

Don't ever read about all the little critters that live on and in your body. They do nastier things than screwing there.
You have to admit that the Firn drill is cooler looking, though.

Look at LedgerSMB

Dickens and Austen, eh? So what sort of DRM is Nintendo going to use to "protect" this "IP"?
They gave you the mass. You can calculate the diameter from that.

Seems to me that a program that crashes rather than degrading gracefully when a remote network resource becomes unavailable needs a bit of work.
It means you can run old DOS games in your neighbor's browser.
It will go far.

...Such as Iceland?
...and you're good to go. Just look around the Web a bit. If they won't pay take down their sites: you'll own the domains.
