HOWEVER!! The Kindle version which I received was full of typos, missing letters and missing words. There were enough mistakes that it passed through annoying and actually affected my ability to follow the story. To their credit the publisher contacted me directly to apologise and asked for examples of mistakes. I've provided some examples but have not heard back, nor do I know how to verify that current versions of the Kindle book have been fixed.
I don't recall any formatting issues in the version I read.
In the past I bought a (self published, I think) Kindle book that was poorly formatted and Amazon refunded it immediately.
I enjoyed Ancillary Justice and am glad Ann Leckie won, but you could tell it's a first novel. Her next novel is out in the next couple of months and will be worth a look at.
The Victoria line has driverless trains since the late 60's, but they still have a 'driver' to open and close the doors. Not sure why this can't be done by platform staff, probably a union thing.
Don't forget to add a SSH private key. Also, I was getting *lots* of failed ssh login attempts on my OpenWrt box. Changing the port to a different number helped.
Bought a Kindle book that was terribly formatted. There were no spaces between paragraphs so it was confusing as hell. Complained and Amazon refunded me immediately. +1 to Amazon.
£25/month? There are plenty of cheaper plans with lots of voice/data for around £10.
For example GiffGaff:
£10 per month: 500 UK minutes, Unlimited UK texts, 1 GB Internet
£12 per month: 250 UK minutes, Unlimited texts, Unlimited Internet
Me: Additional Information: password "Must be between six and ten characters in length"
Why does Tesco have such a silly limit???? Please consider increasing the max length of the password!

Oyster is far from perfect. The online system tells me "There are no season tickets on this Oyster card". Yet there is a monthly travelcard loaded on it that expires sometime next month (not sure when, thanks TFL!).

I think this is why reddit is so slow today.

"Could care less" is like Mick singing "I CAN get no satisfaction".

Newer Kindles are touch.
Thanks for the insight. Your English is fine.
Only 48K on the ZX Spectrum!

Unless you want to travel to the USA. Spent convictions do not count and you will not qualify for the visa waiver program.
Good point. I thought that was a bit suspect.
I've still got a working Dragon 32. For those that don't know this was a British COCO clone.
GLONASS is the Russian program. It pretty much JUST covers Russia
My Nexus 4 in the UK regularly picks up Glonass GPS satellites. I guess I'm not that far from Russia...
Android can already do this. The Amazon App store and F-Droid (FOSS) are 2 options.
For example:
/* We copied this from CP/M but we don't know what it does */
32bit Windows 8 can still run DOS apps. There's got to be some DOS 6.22 code in there.
You missed Win95 & Windows 2000.

That was back in 2012
A rock falling from orbit would be a WMD!
Yet (as a Brit) when I lived in the Netherlands as a student 20+ years ago I had BBC on the local cable TV. Regular BBC, not that world crap.
Shame it's been pissing down almost constantly for weeks.

Windows NT most definately was. You are talking about the 15-20+ year old Windows 1/2/3/9x.
