The USA does have GSM but they transmit it on different frequencies than other places (1900MHz instead of 1800Mhz/900Mhz IIRC) so only special handsets can work there.
The european court of human rights (setup after WW2 caused a few problems with them) is NOT the european union. Many more countries are signed up to that than are members of the union.
When I visited Batlow (the apple capital of NSW) over 14 years ago, they had sonic cannons for hail protection at the time. So yeah, slashdot, "news from the 1980s revisited". I hear that these new fangled phones that don't use wires are coming onto the market too (yup, I saw a homeless beggar using one at the weekend), so maybe slashdot will be reporting on that too?:-)
The x86 and 6502 and Z80 all use the same system used in BASIC, Pascal, Fortran, Algol, C, C++, Java.
I.e. Destination = Src
It's the 68000 and ARM that got it wrong by doing things the COBOL way (MOVE src TO dest). Pah. And they got the high bytes in the wrong locations goddamnit, so that a value is different depending on its type (and multi-unit arithmatic is less sensible).
Well, a couple of litres of transformer oil that was recycled as food oil managed to bring down Belgium's food production chain, hurting the economy (Ouch. Don't tell Bush's ex-business partner Osama). So dioxins can be a pain.
Yeah, but the Iraq trading cards is the only non-dodgy thing ever advertised by spam. Compared to fake drugs, fake degrees and genital enhancers. The sort of things that wouldn't even get advertised on QVC.
Heck, I wanted to buy a deck! I just didn't (even from a web search) because I thought if that sort of things was advertised by spam it must be a con of some sort. So the spammer polluted the idea of me buying it from other companies on the web.
In the USA only Congress can declare war. So when the USA was bombing Vietnam, Cambodia, etc. that was a police action or a training exercise or something.
USA isn't the only country with a tradition of a heriditery head of state who retains power. India had Nehru/Indira/Ranjiv/Sonja. Pakistan had the Bhuttos.
Perhaps they should both go down the european route of letting the "first family" have a ceremonial role (the Bushes and the Kennedys could share the duties in the USA) and letting commoners be elected to the executive jobs.
I think a publisher would be deliriously happy if they could persuade a retailer to only take a markup of 11% (and the manufacturer didn't take such a huge cut either). Or have major retailers gone soft on their suppliers in the last few years?
Well because I know the email addresses of people who send me email, but I don't know everyones' passwords for their ftp sites - if they have any and if the servers feel like working that day and if their sysadmin is feeling in a good mood.
Also sending/receiving attachments (e.g. pictures) is handy when they can't speak English well and the text of their email doesn't make sense.
There is no reason whatsoever to receive executable attachments
Unless you, i don't know, are a software developer or something...
e.g. we develop software, email it to our clients as a.bin file inside a.zip file, and their email program strips it out automatically. Its not even for an x86 processor...
Needless to say it strips out any.exe files (with x86 code) as well (so we have to rename them before zipping them up). I fear the next version of outlook will look for magic numbers instead of file extensions within.zip files, so more tricks will be needed (e.g. encrypting a zip file and zipping it up with a long list of instructions).
Of course the annoying thing is that microsoft keeps inventing new executable formats (.doc,.xls,.vbs, shell scrap files,.mp3 (via bugs),.tif (via bugs)) etc.
Games are sold in more countries than just the USA. For example, several games developed in Japan are sold in Japan and Europe as well as the USA. The reverse may not apply of course...
There were lightbulbs before edison's (e.g. by Swann). It would be evil for him to claim all forms of lightbulb, instead of just the improvements his workshop had created.

...and of course to a German, "funny" means enjoyable (something that is fun).

And being a doctor. Just look at the National Health Service in Britain for examples.
Was that when you were working in India, or when you were working in California?
The class jock immediately said "no wonder I drive a 10-speed bicycle"...

68000? Luxury :-) Here it is in 6502..
Perhaps the clue is the "80" part of the Z80 (8080 begat Z80 and 8086).

r1 += r2
r3 = [bp+3]
It may not be as traditional as other assemblers but it is straightforward to pickup.

Because the authorities thought it was "premium" butter it came under a different quota, which was exceeded.
So the EU can do these things, it's just they do it to the wrong people.
Weren't proper terrorists? After all, they often gave (sometimes inadequate) warnings to evacuate people.
He might have a braille output device, or a text-to-speech reader.

But it doesn't play .sid files by default!
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20 ...
There were lightbulbs before edison's (e.g. by Swann). It would be evil for him to claim all forms of lightbulb, instead of just the improvements his workshop had created.
And if you save it, by default windows will hide the .exe extension as a service to trojan writers everywhere.
