you're all a bunch of f-ing retards for caring what Bill Gates says!
Actually, you'd have to ride the short bus to not care what he says. Know your enemy. Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer. (Feel free to chime in with your own favorite cliché here.)
They're also wasted on cross-country running. On the other hand, they're natural sprinters.
I don't agree - and yes, I'm aware that it's from a comment in the movie version of TLotR:TTT. Dwarves have short stumpy legs that aren't good for much speed, hence they'll lose in most sprints against taller, nimbler opponents.
On the other hand, dwarves are all about constitution and endurance - they might set a slower pace, but they can keep going long after their quicker opponents are left wheezing and gasping at the side of the road.
The beauty is that the only 2 cast members who need to return are Ian McKellen and Andy Serkis.
There's also Ian Holme - you know, Bilbo. Bilbo and company spends some time in Rivendell and talk to Elrond, which means Hugo Weaving. Casting John Rhys Davies as Gloin - Gimli's father - would be a good choice too, but if I recall correctly he had an allergic reaction to the makeup or something, so probably wouldn't be too interested.
And that's the major parts. Ophelia and Lotho Baggins appear at Bilbo's party, and they're at the end of The Hobbit too.
There was once a day that Bill Gates proclaimed...
No, there wasn't. But I do remember the day when I purchased my first box of ten 5.25" floppy disks. Ten of them, when I'd been using one for an entire semester. My $DEITY, I thought - I'll never need all this.
Okay, I guess that was too obscure. In the Apple section, there is a group of whiners who complain about every single new feature Apple introduces to its OS. "But why didn't they make this available for Jaguar", they'll cry, or "I guess Jaguar users are out of luck again".
I'm just wondering where those people are hiding right now - by their "logic", Chevy should be adding, free of charge, all the latest whiz-bang features to their old cars.
What I want to know is, how long until someone complains that Chevy is an evil abusive monopoly, because they won't add this feature free of charge to a 1968 Camaro SS.
Okay, it can jump over obstacles. But when someone tailgates you, can you wait until the other car speeds up, jump to let it pass under you, then shoot it when it gets ahead of you?
A HypoSpray for drug delivery without a needle has already been developed and used clinically during the late 1990s.
Earlier than that. The military had airguns for drug delivery at least in '87, when I went through basic training. The trick was to hold perfectly still. If you did that, it was painless - but if you didn't, the compressed-air "needle" could leave quite a gash in your arm.
Who in their right mind is going to open an anonymous package anyway? Finding a virus in your email is an annoyance - find one in your real-world mail might be fatal.
It could be EA - on their site it says the next installment in the "Oddworld" series will be a first-person shooter. Or they might be working with Raven to produce another "Ultima Underworld" - that would probably be a big seller.
These means that a girl who is interested in science or computers has far greater social barriers to overcome than a boy in a similar position
I don't think so. A boy in a similar position - i.e. one who is interested in becoming a nurse or hairdresser for instance - will face the same barriers.

He's not my enemy. I use linux
Then you're his enemy.
You can love him, hate him, or feel ambivalent about him, as you wish. But only a fool ignores him.

They'd mind it a lot less when you told them it means free electricity for the whole block.
Yeah, but they swim like rocks and have horrible stealth.
What does your sig do?

It encourages you to learn C.

the head of the pack has noone to chase
But he has the rest of the pack nipping at his heels.
For those in the Technology sector, lets all collectively agree right now
Ha! Does the phrase "herding cats" mean anything to you?
Does this mean that speech is now free as in beer?
You can use the OpenGL Driver Monitor that's included with Xcode to find out.

Seriously - why not build out the bandwidth first, and then let people find new and interesting ways to use it?
We can all build nukes! Forcast weather for the whole planet!
If we all build nukes, I'd say the forecast is cold and overcast, for the next few hundred years.
Okay guys, soviet Russia no longer exists, get over it.
;-)
In Soviet Russia, you no longer exist!

Umm, no it would not. Apple doesn't have a monopoly on music players, so there's nothing for them to abuse.
It should be safe by now. How long to 'roid rages last, anyway?

On the other hand a complete knuckle dragger male would go into engineering...because his dad was one.
