There is Jolt Cola on mars. This can only mean one thing. Martians are a bunch of jumped up caffiene druggies hiding out in their sophisticated cave strongholds and are currently planning to destroy the earth by sending their ancient glaciers here to be melted by global warming and thus submerging our free and democratic planet.
Why yes I have been listening to Donald Rumsfeld a lot lately, why do you ask?
Where do you live, Falluja? Thats a highly likely scenario you just decribed there, bound to happen at least every other day of the week. Definitely sufficient to kill this biometric security idea stone dead.
I'm a bit curious about these disposable guns you use there as well. They become useless when the bullets runs out and cant be used again with spare ammo from someone else? Or do both cops carry guns but only one has extra bullets?
Those books should be pretty secure on the bookstore shelves.
That aside though I think its about time people quit whining about how inherently evil outsourcing is. Many companies outsource everything from cleaning and security to payrole and management advise.
Of course if you outsource security there is a risk, just the same as you risk one of your own employees fucking you over if you keep it in house. Proper investigation and dilligence are required. Thats not to say outsourcing is an inherently bad thing. In many cases companies will gain from outsourcing to specialist companies who can offer greater competency than could be achieved inhouse.
There was very clear bias among the judges. I submitted an entry based on a highly advanced cybernetic robot made out of an empty egg carton, two cotton spools, some duct tape, mecano and a little girls pony tail. This very sophisticated device was then velcroed onto spidermans back.
My entry owned all the others when it came to the climbing competition, my entry was able to swing from wall to wall, hang from the ceiling and even managed to rescue a woman from a mugger while all the other entries could do was climb a few cm and fall off. Yet the judges refused to give me first prize. I have vowed never to return to Spain and hope to help humanity by using my robot to climb more walls.
Fortunately Diebold software comes with multiple undo capacity. All thats required is for the Election Officer to select the 2004 presidential election tab hit the undo button and time will roll back to Nov 1.
I think you will find it has nothing to do with cool. The tax on cigarettes has driven their price to the point where there is massively lucrative market for a substitute. This is more to do with getting addicts to fork out for a replacement fix.
Well this is the thing. Many old timers are not adverse to change when clear benefits can be shown from adopting the new technology.
Unfortunately for Grid Computing its still in the stage where people are struggling to explain what it is, nevermind what it does or how it can improve life. Thats always going to be a hard sell to me anyway. If its function is not obvious it makes you sceptical just how necessary it is.
Do smooth initial conditions always lead to smooth solutions?
Well from personal experience I know that if she has not waxed then there will be a major reluctance to be a smoothie on my part. So the answer is yes.
I am prepared to send two of my ex's to the north and south poles respectively. Those cold hearted frigid bitches will soon put an end to any thawing going on.
All I ask for saving humanity is a tropical island paradise where I can be surrounded by nubile maidens.
Hasn't the artic been warming for the last 10,000 years since the last Ice Age? I'm sure mankind is contributing somehow to this process but why is what seems to be a natural cycle of the earth an inherrently bad thing? Its just another natural phenomenon we must learn to deal with with like earthquakes, volcanoes, storms etc.
Yes, what are these metric tons of which you speak, are they related to these?
Also 500 Million a flight is worth it to get treasured moments like the inaguration of the Columbia where Ronald Regan almost brought a tear to my eye telling me about the all current evil terrorist Afghanis were wonderful brave freedom fighters battling for good against the nasty evil empire Russian terrorists who are now our friends.
No you dont understand. While windows has has its instability problems since NT they have been pretty stable. Most of the current problems are to do with malicious twats fucking with other peoples systems.
Banks have used various flavours of windows for years on their ATMs without any major issues. If the ATM network gets compromised it really doesnt matter what OS is running. Its never going to be the end of the world because they are little more than dumb terminals.
And now for the even better stuff. Many aircraft run embedded NT as well in the flight control instrumentation. I suppose we had all better stop flying now. Medical devices have it so I suppose we should refuse medical treatment. Stores use it in POS so that rules out shopping. Microsoft are all over the place and you dont even know it, and strangly enough the world has not actually ground to a halt yet.
You obviously dont have kids. Jokes aside though there must be limits to everything, including liberty or we are straight into anarchy which is not all that good for us either. There must be a certain balance and regulation in society or else it implodes. The difficulty is in finding the balance that protects society without excessive constraint while at the same time ensuring that the system guardians cant easily overide the mechanisms for their own ends.
Nominally this is the purpose of democracy. Unfortunately nowadays politics has become an end in and of itself and political immorality together with the apathy of the masses is removing the last remaining checks and balances. Soon we will have the 'liberty' we deserve.
It has been pointed out to us that you are now in possession of the works of the Bard. We would like to take this opportunity to remind you that you and your 999,999 mates owe us a metric shitload of money for the million typewriters you have leased from us for an improbably long time.
Well normally when pixar do the special effects for these missions there are no issues. I believe the faking effects for this mission have been outsourced to Bollywood due to budget constraints so please dont be alarmed if the mission actually turns out to be a love story between Cassini and Hygens and several hirsuite men in colourful outfits burst into a song and dance routine halfway through it.

Well if it can clean all that, learn to cook and that vortexy suction thing works I think we may be on the way to obsoleting women.
First, you dont have to go see it.
Second, if George Lucas fucking about with his own ideas and creations affects your childhood in some way then you are a truly sad individual.

computer-augmented versions of archaeological attractions like Pompeii
What do they do, lock you in a server room running 10,000 AMD chips spiked at 100% usage and wait for your skin to start melting?
Do smooth initial conditions always lead to smooth solutions?
Well from personal experience I know that if she has not waxed then there will be a major reluctance to be a smoothie on my part. So the answer is yes.
Where's my million bucks?
Your mobile ?
Your Sat phone?
Your PDA?
Your iPod?
Your USB key fob?
Oh... so you _are_ happy to see me then
The guy puts a single 10 node cluster together and this qualifies him him to write the 'definitive guidebook called "The Linux Enterprise Cluster"'.
Dont think so.
