I think the last part of the video which explains the science behind this and compares turkey-and-oil-induced BLEVE to similar incidents involving exploding gas tanks and storage facilities.
I have not used OpenOffice nor LibreOffice in a few years but what I do remember is it is behind the times with a menu and does not even have a ribbon yet.
“On the planet Earth, man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much—the wheel, New York, wars and so on—whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man—for precisely the same reasons.”
Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
Like how GM and Ford have locked-out the ability to replace the factory-approved air filter with a K&N, because they don't want to "warranty and support" the aftermarket parts!
Would you like to start backpedalling now, or should I just make up some extra caveats about enterprise management and vendor support contracts for you?
As for American Beer, try our microbrews, not the Pepsi-subtitutes from BevCo.
Perhaps you should be telling that to more US Americans, as 95% of the beer they drink still comes from the big three (Anheuser-Busch, Miller and Molson Coors).
As if being a "fifty-year-old [sic] monograph" changes the fundamental fact that true science welcomes attempts at falsification with no childish retreat to labeling doubters "denialists".
Does it welcome dissenting views by shouting WRONG? Or is that beyond your ken?
Drop the smug superiority and the alarmist lies.
If I thought there was any future in this discussion I would ask you to document just one of my "alarmist lies", but it's clear that you are arguing with the voices in your head.
Science WELCOMES attempts at falsification. It does NOT label doubters "denialists" or "heretics".
Read this.. You might learn something. Though I doubt it.
And if it SHOUTS at people who DISAGREE with it and INSULTS their ability to understand the relevance of a fifty year old monograph on a tangentially related subject... then it's not science?
>> I have a number of applications that will not run on 64-bit Windows, but I would like...more than 4GB of RAM
Do you realize that many of your 32-bit applications would freak out in a 4GB memory space?
"...to gain the benefits (most better caching) of having...". That's the part you cut out, and it clearly points out one example of how the operating system can benefit from having more physical memory without having to assign it all to a single process. That's the way that virtual memory works -- The OS can have a huge pool of memory while each process only sees a small portion of it.
I have to believe that the UK cops also have quite a lot of discretion.
Perhaps you should visit there some time. The police are burdened down by more rules, regulations and paperwork than you think. For every crime there is an investigation, an outraged MP, a witch-hunt by the newspapers, calls by the public to "do something", and a new rule which the police _must_ follow to "prevent this from ever happening again".
Did an officer see something, suspicious or not? He needs to document it immediately. Did he see someone wearing a hooded sweatshirt run past him? If he does nothing, and that person goes on to steal £20 from someone standing near a school then he can expect to find himself, his supervisor and the chief of police on the front page of tomorrows Daily Fail billed as "Lazy Cops who Stood By while Crook Terrorizes Children at School". It would be even worse if he had spoken the sweatshirt-wearer and then let him go. For a police officer who wants to keep his job the only safe thing to do is to either not see anything, or to arrest everyone. This is how we wind up with students who take pictures being charged as terrorists and people being detained for the heinous crime of being too tall.

Anyone who picked "Fry, Turkey, Fry" is just doing it wrong.

Even a dramatic reading by William Shatner would have been more interesting.
If only there were a way to find things like that.
Here is his twitter feed. Much to nobody's surprise, it's in Korean.
If we all just ignore North Korea, maybe they will go away.
And what do you expect Congress to do about people that can't drive worth shit?
Take their shoes off, confiscate bottles larger than 100mL and grab their junk before they can enter their cars?
It seems to work pretty well at preventing tigers from eating people on airplanes. Why not extend that success to driving?
The current patent ecosystem [...] has incentivized [...] product innovation. [...] many businesses [...] produce [...] true innovation [...]
See? Everyone agrees that David Kappos is right and our patent system is the envy of the world.
NASA just saved a bunch of money on their rover insurance by switching to GEICO.
...and what, exactly, does it mean "to gif" something?
Well... it involves furries, and you probably don't want to know.
Waitaminite. It that a 'G'? Then never mind. Pretend you never asked, and try not to find the answer on your own.

*cough* And we know they never tried anything like that because if they had, then there would be something like a Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, which would clearly state that companies like GM and Ford could not prevent customers from using aftermarket parts.
Stupid prick.
There's no need to sign your post at the end. We can all see who you are by looking at the header.
Also, it's REALLY a stretch to call the 10k developer commitment "paying people to develop" apps for BB10.
Then you wouldn't mind sending me $9,000? It's not really paying, anyway.
Do I have to?

Or from a goat. It depends on who you believe.
So it's the "Year of Linux on the Dock"?
Apparently lobbing cartoon birds at pictures of pigs is worth paying an extra $200 or more.
I don't get it either.
Given that BlackBerry apps earn the most money, it's not a tough decision for developers to make.
But how about when RIM stops paying people to develop for BB10? Will it still be worth doing? And will that link still go to a 404 page?
Why should it go to social programs? Why cant I just keep my hard earned money for my favorite social program: buying ME beer...
Well, beer and the island of Lanai, but you can only apply for that program if your name is Larry Ellison.
It's worse than that. Even the exponents had been corrected, the summary would state that 16.2 petabecquerels is equal to 10^15 becquerels.

Just curious.

If you're putting on a show, and the value of that show is compromised by Twitter, there's not much value in that show to begin with.
Careful, this is College Football you're talking about. In several states it's legal to shoot you for disparaging it.
