Certainly is in my car - the tank has a way bigger cross-section at the top than at the bottom. I can do nearly fifty (sensible) motorway miles from full before the needle comes off the peg - but for the last quarter of the tank, you'd swear the damn thing had sprung a leak.
I'm with the AC on this one. I'm on my second HTC handset, and it does everything you'd expect to be able to do on a portable device while still fitting in my pocket. A 7-inch screen is no match for unlimited HSDPA, either.
No, really. That way he can share his games or whatever with his classmates, simply by sending them a link.
Of course it'll be a longish road to get to that point, but it might be a goal he can relate to - and I know I simply wouldn't learn anything unless I could see the point. Still don't at 34, come to think of it:)
Had those in the stockroom, in the McJail where I did my servitude.
If you got assigned to clean the freezer, it was a miserable task: -18C in a thin uniform for at least an hour. But if you volunteered, saving someone you really hated from having to do it and giving them your stockroom detail instead, then it was bliss.
"Virtue is its own reward"? Hell no. It had more to do with the ten-litre bags of ketchup you'd burst by ramming the stockroom shelves together.:D
I did try - gently pointing out that I was, in fact, more like me than anyone else she would ever meet. And both of the above came out in the subsequent evasion drivel.
As to pushing them away working, I tried that shortly thereafter. It didn't.
Amen.
More than once I've been there to pick up the pieces after some Neanderthal has done his work. Nothing burns like having someone you care about in your arms, in tears, and hearing her say, "I wish I could find someone like you..."
Like me, only an ape. Yeah, I know.
(Bitter? Me?)
I don't fancy using this as a replacement for login/password, but if you haul Joe User down to HR for surfing pr0n, he pulls the "Naughty Bob stole my password" trick, and you can demonstrate that the usage pattern looks a hell of a lot more like Joe User's other sessions than Naughty Bob's......or vice versa, and have some idea who really did steal Joe's password.

I presume this was for the benefit of any NASA engineers who can't convert between metric and Imperial years?

nothing stinks about this particular movement, albeit deep in the bowels of the company
Are you saying Microsoft's shit don't stink?

By the time my v1a6r4 spam gets to me, I'll be old enough to be interested!

Statistically speaking, that's like a monkey speaking French. It's pure frivolity to even suggest.
Unless it's a cheese-eating surrender-monkey, of course.
Can someone tell me what colour it is in hex codes? Cheers.
That's the ones.

Funnily enough, she and I don't talk any more!

This is US
No - this is Slashdot.
...but when the real thing's $140 and you've all those development costs to recoup, why not charge $120 for the bug-crap variety?
I doubt we'd see this at $50 for a good while, not until it drags the price of real oil down to similar levels anyway.
Surely you mean, Atomic Kitten? *ducks*

Oooh. Well played, Sir, well played.

NO! It is the BAD kind of puppy!

So, are you gonna clean that shit up, or sit around here whingeing about commas?
How can he? He was posting from that power control box, you insensitive clod!
No, Roland, we really do hate you that much! *twitch*

May we at Blockbuster humbly recommend "Crimson Tide"?
So... I guess it's shipping, then?
