The last mont blanc I saw in a shop window was over 4000 euros. That seems a bit much for a pen! Mind you, there was a watch for 15000 euros also so maybe it was just an expensive shop. I wonder how much their staples and paperclips cost.
I think both the C/C++ standards say in section 2.2.1 that digits 0...9 must be contiguous.
Unfortunately C is one of the languages where the standard is a proprietary secret of ISO (unlike other freely available language definitions such as c#) so I can't point you to a reference.
EBCDIC is a common non-ascii set, and that has contiguous digits (but not letters). So does PET-ASCII.
Because according to the magazines Nintendo will never release Animal Crossing despite fan pleadings, and they will sue anyone who imports it from overseas.
Ah, but traditional NZ farmers letter boxes (and possibly rural US mailboxes) are 10 gallon drums or suchlike on a 4*4 inch (sorry, 10*10cm) stake in the ground. See "footrot flats" comics for examples.
Can we find someone with good 6502 experience who loves games, lives in south yorkshire or london, and wants to get paid peanuts?
Hmm... (looks at trade papers which each week shows developers going out of business)
Yup, I don't think that will be a problem... but it will probably all be "friend-of-a-friend" techniques to find people rather than looking at job-boards.
Anything sent from Amazon tends not to fit. So you get a little card saying "please go to your local sorting office" to pick it up. Or if they were dumb enough to send it with another carrier "please go to the regional depot" in the middle of nowhere miles away.
This was less of a problem in the old days when they delivered before 9am (they could knock on the door).
From point of view of deliverer (e.g. when I was delivering political leaflets) there are these evil beasts called "dogs" which wait behind postboxes with the aim of biting any fingers when you post letters. I think those houses should be marked with a black cross or something and not receive any mail (including cheques/birthday cards).
From point of view of mail service, it takes a long time to climb up all those stairs, alleys etc. to deliver mail compared to Oz/NZ/US letter boxes on the street, so it must be less efficient/more expensive.
End of rant... I like your suggestion and we did have that when I lived in oz (lockable mailboxes for the block of flats).
Because it would be so terrible if headings/navigation etc. were done as text since they might be shown in a font that was not the approved font for that intellectual property franchise.
Where the anti-terrorism act (which needs to be voted on regularly to remain enabled) is used to hold people who might be terrorists, or at least have dodgy accents.
It floods my 2Meg hotmail account about once an hour for the last few days. And I wanted to get important emails from my family (well some came through anyway while I was cleaning).
Maybe microsoft should take the plunge and block this worm from hotmail - or do they not have any technology that can do this reliably?
I know they usually put the email I receive from workmates and relatives into the "junk mail" folder, so their filtering software is obviously rubbish.
So someone on GBP 4500 (unemployed in UK) - not enough to pay for rent let alone food (that's why they have housing support) is in the top 13%?
I think that shows that what is screwed up is the exchange rate, since there must be more people than that in the world who are not homeless, and don't have a social security system.
I think you have to rely on the one cycle difference between taking a branch and not taking it (to the same location). That should get you cycle synchronised. Didn't the Atari systems have a lovely register that you could access to halt the cpu until an hblank? That would make things easier too:-)
Yup, that took out my hotmail account last night. Microsoft includes received viruses/spam in your total, so it bounced any legitimate messages I might have got last night.
Like you call US gallons etc. "English" measurements, or call belgian-style chips "French" fries, or call native americans "Indians" because it took you a few hundred years to work out the great ocean was actually two oceans (atlantic/pacific) and a couple of continents.
So you could call it "Russian" mega/giga. Especially cool since russians are big SI fans (even their planes have altimeters in metres instead of feet! This causes some problems).

So now we know how they raised the $20 million or so to launch nigeria's first satellite this week! Spam clearly works :-)

IIRC geocities liked to "break" peoples pages by putting all sorts of wierd scripting rubbish in them that didn't work.

on the 4 key you can use the Euro symbol ( banned by /. ).
On the alpha keys, C S O and L are much more worn than E.

Or do you mean some other Mike Moore?
Yeah, that's why the spam problem was eliminated a few months after it first reared its head.
Didn't that have keys on it to wordprocess etc.?
No, in English Hannover is spelled "Windsor".
Or will you tell me that there will be no Bush, Clinton or Kennedy in office in the next 20 years?

It is hard to change your personality - harder even than changing your body (exercise/diet).
So changing your job from "telling the truth to a computer, in detail" to "lying plausibly to a human, vaguely" is non-trivial.

You forgot the word "subsidised".
