IIRC in Japan they have vending machines on the streets for cigarettes, beer, hard-core pr0n, coffee. So either they trust their kids or their parents take responsibility I guess.
Henry Ford invented the production line and applied the idea to automobile construction.
Well, on the first point you're only out by a few thousand years but on the second point, Ransom "oldsmobile" Olds used an assembly line before Ford, according to the same site.
Well inspired by bill gates announcement I tried using the msn "search" feature.
I tried something simple: "King of thailand".
Google brings up a Thai website with a message from the king.
www.msn.com brings up a british shopping web site that doesn't even mention thailand or the king. Obviously it is trivial to game MSN results.
The second entry refers to a visit by the king to a school in the UK. The "cache" link is broken
("this web site cannot be found")
The fourth result doesn't seem very relevant either.
I presume it has figured out that my PC is in the UK, and so it returns nearly all british shopping websites, instead of something actually related to my search.
Oh well, maybe they will try again in a few years time.
And the command to print a window is Ctrl-Shift-AltGerman-Apple-Meta-Command-4.
Which was in a tutorial lab I was supposed to be supervising in 1987, and the guy with cerebral palsy in the class could only use one hand (slowly). There was no way he could do this, and I don't know if anyone had invented stickykeys yet. He didn't find macintoshes easy to use IIRC.
Most 6502 systems (NES, Apple 2, C64, Vic-20, Pet) will have kernel ROM at the top of memory, because that is where the reset vector is! Similarly a z80 (spectrum) would have rom at the bottom, since that is where it starts execution.
That particular program looks like it would make a tone and print crap on the screen of an Apple 2.
To test that, run an apple 2 emulator. According to the internet, type the following lines:
call -151
!
0300:lda C030
0303:jsr fded
0306:jmp 0300
0300G
Note that I corrected the bug:-)
And as I predicted, crap fills up the screen with characters scrolling past (isn't the internet wonderful?)

Rehearsing for the stage
takes singing lessons from professor dini.
She yelps all day
and the neighbours say
she should be in a cage
but she thinks she's as good as Petra Dini!
She asked her neighbour if her execution was all right
And he replied "I'd favour it - tonight!"
In the morning when you're dreaming (dreaming)
She will wake you with her screaming (screaming)
Tra la la la la la la la
Up and down the scale she goes
warble warble warble warble
Singing through her nose!
Well a lot of us are used to that new-fangled celcius/centigrade scale (1742) instead of the old-fashioned fahrenheit scale (1726). But if you were brought up in the 1730s (like the USA) I can understand why you'd be reluctant to modernise:-)
(1) It's hardly a fetish, just as going out with someone who has two legs is not a fetish. It's going out with an amputee that requires more preparation...
(2) But how can I reconcile my aesthetic position with the shaving of facial hair?
This could mean that the Gulf Stream moves and London becomes as cold as Moscow
This is what worries me personally. I mean here I am walking around in shorts today in London, and yet I hear that people closer to the equator (e.g. in Chicago or Washington) are having less of a balmy day today. I don't really want their weather. I like the Gulf Stream!
Well your willie might be working at x%, just as my lungs work at y% (asthma) and my eyes at z% (myopia). I can breathe but I ain't climbing Everest any time soon.
My profit would be if I went out with an american, or if they started making better pr0n movies.
this guy thinks otherwise (no idea how authoritive he is though) and IIRC Kelloggs (cornflakes guy) was important in that. If you think that 1971 is "quite recent" then I would disagree. And my personal beef with it is cos I might want to go out with an American at some stage...
Well come on, most males in the USA have had their genitals mutilated when they were babies just to prevent them from enjoying sex as much later on in life... Of course it isn't just the USA that is like that though, the same applies in Iran and Israel.
So will the US recognise any marriages/partnerships from the United Kingdom, Canada, Netherlands, Belgium, New Zealand, Denmark... (um did I miss some out?) or is there some sort of special system...
Sony claimed that the PC world would not catch up with the PS2 for many years (was it 5 or 10 I forget). The Xbox (and Gamecube) showed that claim up with real-world apps.

Maybe it is like this 1987 system.

Half an operating system for half a computer!
It's the open-source way. After that, they can write a better text editor.

I guess it depends on if it is Helena Bonham Carter or not
The NES used a 2A03
which is a 6502 with the decimal mode not working, and some sound registers added.
I think the BBC, VIC-20 and Apple 2 were plain jane 6502s, but some later models might have used the 65C02.
IIRC lots of optomechanical PC mice used a SunPlus 8 bit chip which was a cut-down 6502.

You do grow food in America - and sell it to China. They have a lot of people there, so your wheat is important to them.

To tell us what is legal, we have Bjarne Stroustrup and Andrei Alexandrescu.
To tell us what is moral we have Scott Meyers and Herb Sutter!
So will the US recognise any marriages/partnerships from the United Kingdom, Canada, Netherlands, Belgium, New Zealand, Denmark... (um did I miss some out?) or is there some sort of special system...
