Those second million might have happened in my neighborhood in Chandler, AZ. for the past year at least, we've had swarms of them driving around our neighborhood streets at all times of the day and night, thought not late night that I'm aware of (ie mid-5 am, as a linux lead for several large international companies, I get more done at night so I'm up working those hours when no one annoys me with chats etc). At times we've seen 6 driving through our streets all in a line. Driving from pickup up dinner and gas yesterday, about 2 miles, I saw 3 of them including one at the pump next to us at the gas station (we drive a Volt, $13 fill up! W00t!). At first it was interesting, now it's just another car on the road. Haven't heard of any accidents, nor seen any. Though I haven't looked, you might be able to catch some in Google Maps sat images, I see our cars every refresh.
It's very comforting to see them being used so successfully locally, and really gives you some confidence in the product.
Not only that, but if you look in the lens of what looks like a camera on the tallest part of the rover, you can clearly see the shadow of the person taking the photo.
I recall thinking how similar the Apple store was to the Sony stores in the area (Novi, MI) when they first came out and thought Apple was ripping off Sony.
I've had 5! Count 'em 5 ICDs. When they do the reading, you can always get a copy of the readout. They print them up, and clear the memory.
Every time, without exception no matter the technician, over the course of at least a hundred of these data dumps did I NEVER get a copy and I still have quite a few of them. They even go over them with you. You do have to have a modicum of cardiac AND electric knowledge or it's pointless of course. I have plenty of both so it wasn't an issue. EVER.
I suggest you put down most of your computing devices then. Intel is HUGE here, as is Motorola and Microchip. American Express and Goodyear Tire are also huge here (eg Goodyear, AZ is a real town named after.... Goodyear Tire). So no electronics for you, no plane rides (who do you think makes the tires for the planes and the emergency chutes you jump on to escape the plane?), lose those tires. Cut up that card.
Oh, and if the AC is calling my died in the wool liberal wife racist? Get a life. A state isn't racist, mentally handicapped conservatives in the state legislature are. They get voted in by snowbirds, the elderly who relocate here 6 months out of the year. Like your grandparents.
My buddy had one when we were younger. Years later a neighbor said he had one, brought it over, and it was still unopened in the box! I have it in storage for when it's worth millions... Someday...
I first came here doing a search on why my 3 floppy disk install kept failing and discovered floppies suck and linux floppies are or were... sensitive. I remember thinking "CmdrTaco? Must work at Taco Bell to earn money."
After lurking for awhile I had to make some snappy assed reply to someone and finally took the plunge to make an account. I thought ACs were... ACs. Then I promptly forgot said username/password and lurked more until I started taping them to my monitor... j/k!
I remember being thrilled that Slashdot stories were on Google News! So many great stories, so many snarky trolling comments, so many incredibly accurate polls, so much wasted time and time well spent.

In high school, it AT Physics, we were all assigned a project at the beginning of the semester. Any project as long as it was Physicsy (DOH!) Anyway, i said I'd make a cheapy hovercraft. Teacher said it wouldn't work, I said it would, so he said if I had one working in a week I would get an A for the semester.
I went to the store, got a macramé ring, a Styrofoam ring for making wreathes and such, and some balsa wood. Went home, savaged a hairdryer for it's motor. A hammer, some nails, some small screws, screwdriver, and some duct tape completed the basic ingredients.
I taped the macramé ring to the wreath, both having the same outside circumference. Nailed two 1/4 inch thick balsa wood pieces across the ring so that the mounts on the motor could be screwed the wood "planks", but the fan from the motor didn't. Then I filled in the rest of the top of the macramé ring with thinner 1/8 inch balsa wood, nailing it into the macramé ring. Plug in the motor and Voila! Nearly instant and cheap Hovercraft!
Went in the next day to class (don't forget the doubting teacher at school). Plugged it in. His jaw dropped. Put 2Kg on either side of it, still floats.
I got an A.
Epilogue. It had a nasty habit of going into a spin due to the shape and the motor. Spent the rest of the Semester during project time and at home messing around with it here and there, carving out the wreathe so that the air flow was better and did a counter spin with the airflow, added a skirt (harder than you think), and some measure of remote control.
I also purchased a gas motor so that it wouldn't need the long cord, but sliced the hell out of my hand and never finished it. It's probably still sitting in my dad workshop somewhere.

It's not that WOW interferes with my daily life (job, wife and 2 beautiful children), it's that all those things distract me from playing when I want to play.
Some days, I find that I can't play at all, and others, just an hour or two, not long enough to raid, just enough to deal with Alt issues. Sure, the wife supports me when I get raid time (it's cheaper than bars and she knows where I am), but my employer could give a crap about how close I am to that epic set. Now that's just rude!

But having done well over 25k installs of winxp through imaging and hand installs and scripting, and putting FF on about half, it's usually the windows install that's buggy, not the FF install.
FF has it's issues, but on the three machines in my house, FF uses 0% cpu. In fact, i have a single ie page open to Thotbot, and it's taking up the most cpu, FF is 12th, with 31 tabs open.
Slashdot Mirror
Just unethical. Big difference!!
One is keeping your employees from talking about the company true or not and over-managing the employees rights to free speech. This is unethical.
The other would be like slicing the throats of all employee's children who don't toe the company line. This is evil.
Are we clear? I hate it when the line gets blurred.
of something reeeeally good! Tired of seeing all the see-saw patent wars between the big guns and the sniping by the gd patent trolls.

Thank you CmdrTaco. I salute you!

So someone gave you a present and then proceeded to tell you how much it was? Classy.
It's a real nice city. I've been there once.
Nope, your the only one. Evah.
Then don't post, oh phallic one
