Which of course has absolutely nothing to do with opwning the hood, unless there'a a new procedure for working on rears that I'm totally unfamiliar with.
Well actually, you drop the engine on my car, but you still need to open the hood in order to disconnect a bunch of stuff first.
The front molding is all one piece that comes off with a specialized tool. It said in the article that only a Volvo technician could take it off. Obvioiusly because they wouldn't sell the tools to the mass market.
No problem: Haynes will have a way to replace the special tool with two screwdrivers and a 2x4.
but is a concept aimed at the type of women who would never open the hood anyway.
Well, I'm a guy who would love to swap my engine on the weekend, if I only had a garage, but I don't, so I pretty much never open the hood either. I still like having a hood that opens, seeing as how I can change the oil at jiffy lube and hire my choice of mechanic to install an LSD.
A post that was quickly modded down had similar arguments, albeit more agressive:
Well yeah, it's a soft-headed Objectivist rant. It starts by misrepresenting what a monopoly is, what anticompetitive behavior is, and totally ignores the requirement of misdeeds for prosecution to occur. I feel dumber for having read it.
hen you preach freedom, but deny MS their freedom because you don't like the way they do business, you're a hypocrite.
Looks like you drank the MS koolaid. We don't like the way MS does business because it damages society as a whole. Allowing their scorched earth tactics would result in 1 OS company, with Linux illegal. Eventually, most apps would either be highly vertical or else owned by MS.
The only problem I've got with the casting is that they didn't pick a more British type of hipster.
When I thought 'Black British Hipster', my first thought was the demo man from Ocean's 11. Second was Lister from Red Dwarf. Unfortunately, I saw this piece of crap while I was on IMDB. What ever happened to doing something new?
Nit: Speeding is not (usually) criminal. It is an administrative offense. This allows a looser process, more akin to a contractual breach than a crime.
Isn't the most logical conclusion that it is this system that caused the drop? Doesn't it seem natural that fast access to 200gigs of relevant information could help law enforcement a little bit, oh say, somewhere around 16%?
Repeating something does not make it true. It's quite possible that the gentrification mentioned earlier, combined with demographic changes, is responsible for a lot of that 16% that you're so fond of.
Correlation is the first thing you seek when finding the cause of something -- cause necessarily implies correlation. I think a better mantra would be "correlation does not necessarily imply causation."
No, the point is that simple correlation doesn't tell you who caused what - you need more info.
From my experience, here are some of the things NT 4.0 MCSEs have not known how to do:
Predictable, seeing as how an MCSE covers the setup and minimal admin of a small windows network. If the course materials are to be believed, people still install coax ethernet.
The only thing even close is "the source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it."
I don't see that as explicitly ruling out obfuscation.
Try telling the judge that you name all your variables v0001, v0002, v001, and so on. Simply stated, obfuscation is something you do specifically to stop somebody from understanding the code.
instead of worrying about radiation would see it as a big bonus to get a basestation as their next neighbor because it powered their microwave for free.
If you had that much power in the air, you wouldn't need a microwave - just bring the food inside. It would kind of suck, though - you'd have to sleep under a grounded copper blanket.
I do know that the road accidents have a signicant proportion which are caused by DUI.
You mean 'Alcohol related'. Elsewhere in this discussion someone has debunked the NHSTA and MADD's stats in the matter. Suffice it to say that an alcohol related accident is one where somebody involved has a BAC > 0.02. On top of that, they add a fudge factor because not everybody gets tested for booze. This ends up inflating the numbers by something like 300%.

Now all I need is a $1000 5 gas sensor for tuning. Perhaps I can rent that.

Why can't AMD make a Dual AMD64?
They do - it's called an Opteron 2xx.
Thank God, they didn't call it The Butterfly Effect.
Why not? I think it describes the state of XP perfectly - multiple minor changes add up to a nonfunctional box, and it's different every time.

Let's turn this around:
I'll try coming over there in a year or three. Feel free to kick my ass, but don't take it badly if you get yours handed to you.
might as well have been made by TOYota.
Yeah, except that it'd be called Tundra.

It's nice, but it costs $1200 on sale and is a tempting target for thieves. Gimme one where the expensive bits are in the trunk any day.
I personally never saw a single Zippy fortune that made any sense.
I thought that was the point.
Galileo's ideas were so outrageous at the time that the church had him outcast from society (IIRC).
Well, that and he called the Pope an idiot for advocating the copernican model. He did it in print, too.
Hang on a moment; I thought the Lorenz attractor (which is the canonical example of chaos) was based on a system obeying Newtonian mechanics.
Perhaps it would be better so say that Newton's laws make no meaningful predictions in such a situation, or at least, they don't converge nicely.

There was specific emphasis on the shrimp part, sort of underscoring strangeness of the encounter.
Speeding tickets are misdemeanors.

How about John 'I killed the president of Paraguay with a shrimp fork' Cusack?

You mean like how, criminals aren't allowed to own or posses a gun, but yet somehow, they always seem to have one?
I would imagine that concealing an illegal car is a bit harder than, say, a pistol.
es, I'm sure those killed on 911 and their family's would agree that a war on terror is not important.
What's The War Against Terror (TWAT) got to do with Iraq?
