The study's antagonist, Ms. Widdecombe (pronounced 'wide'-combe for sake of humor) states in the article,
"When I lost weight it was my waistline that improved, not my cerebellum."
I bet the french authors are having a blast with that one considering the cerebellum or 'little brain' has nothing to do with this kind of cognitive function. It's almost exclusively a motor center.
While I think your second line is a good idea, your first misses the point - the submitter was comparing commercial OSS vs. CSS not commercial OSS vs. free OSS.
I think this depends on the software used to save the image. perhaps pngout does a good job, but with most programs I've used including photoshop, PNG usually creates larger file sizes. I'm willing to bet that if there was a forced shift to png right now we'd see a significant bit of bandwidth wasted.
The almighty dollar seems to be the only concern in the U$A
No, those were the good ol' days. Our capitalism kept us free. Our liberty has gone down the crapper in recent years largely due to bigger government and less focus on a free market. Politicians, media, and special interests prey on fear now for selective gain and for protection against the rigor of free market economics.
Honestly, do you think that every person who used this with success went straight to the forum boards and posted "Success! Thanks Microsoft!"?
actually, I've heard that M$ is encouraging this kind of behavior as they believe it will put less load on their servers if people just post when something they make actually works and they can just assume the rest is total dogshit.
Leave the innovation to niche manufacturers like Apple.
From Intel: We tried this, but then they went rouge and released a gigantic cheese grater. It was funny for a little while, but now we feel that something needs to be done.
are you sure? That sounds very quaint to me, but merely habitual, like saying people would never switch to computers because they like the weight and motion of a typewriter.
VIVID will just have to invest more in make-up and video editing. Don't doubt for a second that the porn industry won't adapt. They've got at least a good 15 years to get ready for this (ok, by then all the editing/make-up in the world won't make Jenna look presentable, but perhaps the olson twins will benefit from this - shudder...)
a Wisconsin law that allows children to consume alcoholic drinks at bars as long as their parents are present
This makes great sense as a way to curb reckless drinking. The culture surrounding drinking in the states is so backwards - teens are discouraged and prevented from drinking which automatically makes it a pretty cool thing to get away with doing. Then they reach this magic age of 21 where they're suddenly set free like a toddler in a candy-shop. How many parents treat other things such as driving this way? - "Here you're 16 now, take the keys, figure it out, have a blast." It took me and a lot of people I know a long time to really learn how to drink, and a lot of dumb mistakes could have been prevented if we weren't teaching ourselves. Wisconsin folk, take your kids to bars, teach them to drink responsibly, and you'll also crush the hell out of the "cool-factor" that so often leads to reckless underage drinking. Take advantage of the unique freedom your state has before it's taken away.
Where are you getting this info from? I've lived in many states and have never been to one where children accompanied by adults aren't allowed into bars (unless a particular bar or tavern has a policy against that). Plenty of bars allow people under the age of 21 to enter unaccompanied, they're just not allowed to drink.
Wow, I've never even gotten a chance to try this virginia spam and they're allready getting sent away to jail. I guess that's what happens when you try to compete with the long-standing Ham curing industry in Virginia.
Indeed, I do say, what has become of these rowdy consumer peasants hoarding their demand for our nearly-infinite supply? HHmmpph - it's outrageous! I scorn them.
yes, but they learn how to become violent criminals in prison, this allows us to snag them again for violent crime (if we're not too busy handing out speeding tickets), and then argue that they should have served a longer term the first time for their heinous peaceful behavior because obviously they didn't learn their lesson. It's a beautiful, efficient system really.
Pacman isn't violent, it's just drug obsessed. You're essentially boiled down to a simple mouth with the single goal of avoiding what can only be your own hallucinations (ghosts?!) while constantly munching down little pills fervently just to stay alive. You're so fucked up that most of these drugs just keep you going, nothing more. However, you're on a quest for the real good stuff, the uppers that let you conquer your darkest demons. Still, even these hi-powered feel good drugs really only serve to drop you even harder when you come down and suddenly you're closer to your fears and problems than ever before. Yeah, pacman is a really loser-junkie if you ask me. Sure he might turn to violent crime eventually to feed his habit, he might even slap Mrs. Pacman around a little bit, but I think that's reading into the game a bit much don't you Mrs. Thompson?
After watching those videos, I have retracted my previously firm belief that ninjas are mammals. Arthropods can obviously be ninjas as well.
In that first video that ant disappears from the site of the ant that is watching him, trims his toenails and files his tax return in mid air before landing directly behind his unsuspecting neighbor all in less than a second. Amazing.

man, I really wish there was a throbber version of this one.
and yes, I am prepared for the innuendo laden comments that I just set myself up for.
no. At least in 7.0 I still usually get larger pngs with save for web compared to gifs.

this posting title sounds to me like linux is a sleezy sexual predator of sorts.
"Can area man living in parents basement pick-up junior high chicks thanks to new football stadium?"
that's how I read it.

yes I suppose, but I really hope you're referencing that loosely as the direct correlate would be... well it would be very very wrong.

careful, statements like that are likely to get you voted governor in some states.

Get back to work now you babies.
hey, I'm just happy that these light bulbs are going to alleviate traffic problems.

insightful? It seems like unsubtantiated hand waving to say that at least half the items on a typical search are fraud.
Anyone know if this information will be required to be disclosed to vehicle renters?
