This is truly starting to worry me a bit here. Google seems to be giving away quite a bit of good stuff for free. Nothing is free so they must want something back in return. Are we potentially just selling our souls to the devil in disguise?
Doesn't this seem like a potential disaster waiting to happen. Some people who know almost nothing about unix and may decide to take a plunge because the installation seems rather simple. The last thing you may want is to be doing everything as root -- a la Windows 9x.
I heard something to the extent that stores use a certain ink which fades away after x amount of days so you don't come back and get a refund. I have a few very faded receipts, but no proof that is what they're actually up to. Nonetheless, I scan my receipts when I get home.
That's impossible! This big hunk of crap is going to sail through the air like a bird. Fools!!!
My point is that not because we cannot conceive of something with our current mental capacity means it's impossible. Why not give it a try? The only discussion should be the amount of money being spent. Besides, there are plenty of other areas where money is being squandered and could be saved.
What happens when you buy a car at auction. I believe the original VIN is removed and replaced with a new one. For example, a car sold at auction in New York will get a new VIN with something like NY12345.
So they could just start using a hex VIN starting at zero and have old cars come in for re-vin'ing if a duplicate arises. Good thing they don't hire me to decide those things...
1. Park about 12" to 18" away from the car behind which you would like to park and make sure your mirrors line up.
2. Turn your steering wheel one complete turn towards that car.
3. Hold the wheel and reverse slowly until your mirrors are in line with the back of the car.
4. Turn your wheel one full turn back in the opposite direction (away from the car).
5. Continue backing up until you're straight and in the spot.
Once you master that, just make small adjustments to compensate for differences in vehicle sizes.[Doitashimashite]
* - Providing the cars are approximately the same length. It won't work if you're driving a VW Golf and are trying to park behind a Ford Expedition.
Wait till you apply for a job or a credit card and they check out the street on which you live... "You see that house! Oh hell no, that bastard lives in the hood."
For the racially sensitive, substitute trailer park for hood -- just so everyone is equally offended.
That this guy kept the other $145 he saved from building his own antenna because he's definitely gonna need it to pay his web host.
I have the site saved, so anyone want to host a mirror, let me know..
This guy better have some serious gaming skills. Nothing would be worse than showing up at a LAN party with this rig ang getting your ass handed to you. Kinda like the kids who come out sporting the hardcore gear -- cuz their parents can afford it -- and can't play for shit.
Hey I remember those old ATMs, here in Australia (And I'm only 23...)
Of course you remember those. Isn't Australia where the UK sends all it's unwanted junk. You know, old computers, ATMs, prisoners, etc..:-) (Just joking)
You somehow get your story posted on Slashdot. Consequently, the brave souls of Slashdot Volunteer Army will attack with a vengeance and lay waste to the theif's site.
Of course with this being Slashdot, the story will get reposted again next week and the attack will start again. You can get quite a few attacks in that way.
For some reason, I think feminists would be pretty pissed off if the car was designed with the hood inaccessible to them.
Why would they want a car that considers them so clueless or feeble that they are not capable of checking/changing their own oil or doing other shit under the hood/bonnet.
No way in hell any feminist is buying that car! Or have feminists gone soft. heheh
Any life on Mars would be adapted to the Martian environment and extremely ill-suited to other conditions.
Mabye so, but have you considered dehydrated food... Perhaps some virus has just been in some suspended state in the deep freeze of Mars, waiting for some poor soul from Earth to bring it back. Once it warms up and comes in contact with water, unleashes hell. Just a possibility to consider...
As annoying as commercials may be, it could be a lot worse. If people start simply forwarding through the commercials, advertisers are going to get networks to embed them within the program/show itself.
As much as commercials may suck, you definitely don't want a constant ticker at the bottom of your screen for coke/tampons/etc.. It could be even worse with those little ads you find on Discovery and History Channel and the rest, in the bottom right or left corner of the screen. They're usually for upcoming shows. These things keep taking up more and more room and sometimes obstruct pertinent information on the screen.
Sometimes, though, cell phones are absolutely necessary - my wife is pregnant, right?
Why is it absolutely necessary? It's not like you're delivering the baby -- unless you're a/the doctor.
And "what if something went wrong?"... Yeah, we definitely need you there to whip out your leatherman and do a number on the umbilical cord if it tangles around the baby's neck.
My point? For a wife in labor, it's nice to have. Absolutely important, hardly!

How can this man get away with threatening the World President. Because after all, there is only one president in the world.
Oh yeah! But are those chainsaws running or are they off?

In case some people don't understand my rambling, I was talking about the Wright Brothers -- you know, the ones who made the aeroplane.

Here is one way guaranteed* to work.
1. Park about 12" to 18" away from the car behind which you would like to park and make sure your mirrors line up.
2. Turn your steering wheel one complete turn towards that car.
3. Hold the wheel and reverse slowly until your mirrors are in line with the back of the car.
4. Turn your wheel one full turn back in the opposite direction (away from the car).
5. Continue backing up until you're straight and in the spot.
